Circadian rhythms are crucial for stem cell function and tissue repair, and understanding them may improve aging and regeneration treatments.
research Melanin Pigmentary Disorders: Treatment Update
Treatments for melanin disorders exist, but more effective options needed.
research White Lupin Cluster Root Acclimation to Phosphorus Deficiency and Root Hair Development Involve Unique Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases
White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
research An Open, Randomized, Comparative Study of Oral Finasteride and 5% Topical Minoxidil in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Oral finasteride works better than topical minoxidil for hair growth, both are safe.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy

research Prostaglandin metabolism in human hair follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Albendazole treatment of echinococcosis in humans: Effects on microsomal metabolism and drug tolerance
Albendazole treatment for echinococcosis can cause serious side effects and requires close monitoring.
research Graft-versus-host disease
Graft-versus-host disease is a complication where donor immune cells attack the recipient's body, often affecting the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.
research Relative uptake of minoxidil into appendages and stratum corneum and permeation through human skin in vitro
Minoxidil promotes hair growth by penetrating skin, with ethanol-containing formulas working best.
research Stem cell secretome as a new booster for regenerative medicine
Stem cells help repair tissue mainly by releasing beneficial substances, not by replacing damaged cells.
research Significance of the polyglutamine tract polymorphism in the androgen receptor
The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.
research A review of the treatment of male pattern hair loss
Finasteride and minoxidil work best together for hair loss.
research Androgen Profiling by Liquid Chromatography–Tandem Mass Spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) in Healthy Normal-Weight Ovulatory and Anovulatory Late Adolescent and Young Women
The research found that anovulatory young women have higher androgen and hormone levels than those who ovulate, suggesting immature hormonal regulation rather than a specific condition.
research Association of biochemical hyperandrogenism with type 2 diabetes and obesity in Chinese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
High androgen levels in Chinese women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of diabetes and obesity.
research Melatonin promotes secondary hair follicle development of early postnatal cashmere goat and improves cashmere quantity and quality by enhancing antioxidant capacity and suppressing apoptosis
Melatonin improves cashmere goat hair growth and quality by increasing antioxidants and reducing cell death.
research Hypertension and aldosterone levels in women with early-onset androgenetic alopecia
Women with early hair loss have higher blood pressure and aldosterone; screening and treatment may help.
research Ghrelin levels are suppressed and show a blunted response to oral glucose in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
Women with PCOS have lower ghrelin levels and a weaker response to sugar, which might affect their feeling of fullness and lead to overeating.
research Recent Progress in Prostaglandin F2αEthanolamide (Prostamide F2α) Research and Therapeutics
New research on prostamide F2α has led to treatments for glaucoma and eyelash growth and may have more medical uses.
