research Mycophenolate Antagonizes IFN-γ-Induced Catagen-Like Changes via β-Catenin Activation in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Follicles
Mycophenolate helps reverse hair loss effects caused by IFN-γ by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Investigation of transfollicular caffeine penetration using microdialysis on ex vivo porcine ear skin
Caffeine penetrates skin quickly through open hair follicles, but less through closed ones, with levels becoming equal after 22 hours.
research Combination therapy profoundly improved skin flap survival by modulating KATP channels and nitric oxide
The combination of azelaic acid, minoxidil, and caffeine significantly increased the survival of skin flaps by affecting certain body channels and nitric oxide levels.
research Risk Factors for Pediatric Alopecia Areata: Clinical and Biochemical Findings from a Case – Control Study
Children with alopecia areata often have vitiligo, allergic asthma, ADHD, and low vitamin B12 and ferritin levels.
research The variable cell
Hairless protein is key for hair growth, cell differences cause gene expression variation, and the N-end rule pathway senses nitric oxide for protein breakdown.
research Whole exome sequencing in Alopecia Areata identifies rare variants in KRT82
Rare changes in the KRT82 gene are linked to a higher risk of Alopecia Areata.
research LGR5 is a Marker of Poor Prognosis in Glioblastoma and is Required for Survival of Brain Cancer Stem‐Like Cells
High LGR5 levels in glioblastoma indicate poor prognosis and are essential for cancer stem cell survival.
research Adenosine Stimulates Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 Gene Expression Via Adenosine A2b Receptor Signaling in Dermal Papilla Cells
Adenosine may promote hair growth by increasing FGF-7 levels in dermal papilla cells.
research Hair metal dysregulation in Parkinson’s disease: Implications for diagnosis and gut-brain axis involvement
Hair metal analysis may help diagnose Parkinson's disease and suggests gut involvement.
research A high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry assay of the androgenic neurosteroid 3α-androstanediol (5α-androstane-3α,17β-diol) in plasma
Testosterone increases 3α-androstanediol levels, which can be blocked by finasteride.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Expression Leads to Translocation and Activation of Protein Kinase CK2 in Vivo
High ornithine decarboxylase levels may lead to hair loss and cancer by increasing CK2 activity in the nucleus.
research Elevated serum heat shock protein-70 and interleukin-15: prognostic biomarkers correlating with clinical severity and diagnostic efficacy in active alopecia areata
High levels of HSP70 and IL-15 are linked to more severe alopecia areata.
research Spatial transcriptomics of a giant pilomatricoma
The analysis of a large pilomatricoma revealed five distinct areas with different gene activity related to hair growth and tumor development.
research Regulatory Effect of Cannabidiol (CBD) on Decreased β-Catenin Expression in Alopecia Models by Testosterone and PMA Treatment in Dermal Papilla Cells
CBD may help restore hair growth-related protein levels in alopecia caused by hormones or other factors.
research Serum granulysin as a possible key marker of the activity of alopecia areata
Serum granulysin levels can indicate the activity and prognosis of alopecia areata.
research Relationships Between Hair Chemical Elements and Nutritional Status in Oldest-Old and Centenarian Populations
Hair selenium levels can indicate nutritional status in very old people.
research Understanding human aging and the fundamental cell signaling link in age-related diseases: the middle-aging hypovascularity hypoxia hypothesis
Improving blood flow and oxygen levels in middle age may help prevent age-related diseases.
research Seasonal Variability in Transcript Expression of Type I and Type II Keratins in Wool Follicles of Lustrous Fleece-Producing Magra Sheep
Higher keratin protein levels are important for the wool's shine in Magra sheep.
research Screening of Protein Related to Wool Development and Fineness in Gansu Alpine Fine-Wool Sheep
Key proteins and pathways are crucial for wool fineness, but more research is needed.
research Not the Root of the Problem—Hair Cortisol and Cortisone Do Not Mediate the Effect of Child Maltreatment on Body Mass Index
Child abuse is linked to higher BMI, but not because of hair cortisol or cortisone levels.
research Measurement of cortisol, dehydroepiandrosterone, and testosterone in the hair of children: Preliminary results and promising indications
Hair can effectively measure DHEA and testosterone levels in children.
research Acute Stress-Induced Changes in Follicular Dermal Papilla Cells and Mobilization of Mast Cells: Implications for Hair Growth
Stress can slow hair growth by affecting certain cells and pathways.
research A network pharmacology-based approach to explore mechanism of action of medicinal herbs for alopecia treatment
Medicinal herbs might treat hair loss by affecting genes and pathways related to lipid and glycerophospholipid metabolism.
research Unraveling the mechanism of action of cepharanthine for the treatment of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) from the perspectives of systematic pharmacology
Cepharanthine may help treat COVID-19 by targeting multiple pathways.
research Changes in the serum metabolomics of polycystic ovary syndrome before and after compound oral contraceptive treatment
