research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Chemical pharmacotherapy options for managing adult acne
The conclusion is that more research is needed to better understand and treat adult acne, and that patient education and simple treatment plans are important for better results.
research Technical Insights from a Former Hair Restoration Surgery Technician
Small changes in hair restoration surgery, like using special stitches and careful graft placement, can improve results and teamwork.
research Efficacy of intradermal minoxidil 5% injections for treatment of patchy non-severe alopecia areata
Minoxidil injections can speed up hair regrowth in non-severe patchy hair loss, but combining it with steroids doesn't improve results.
research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Refinements in Hair Transplantation: Micro- and Minigraft Megasession
Hair transplantation using micro- and minigraft megasessions is safe, effective, and provides natural results with high patient satisfaction.
research Surgical Techniques
The document concludes that choosing the right forehead and brow lifting technique based on individual patient characteristics is crucial to prevent complications and achieve desired results.
research Hair pull test: Evidence-based update and revision of guidelines
The normal range for the hair pull test is 2 hairs or fewer, and washing or brushing hair before the test does not affect the results.
research Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a hair loss condition often confused with other types, requiring early treatment but usually not resulting in significant hair regrowth.
research Clinical and histological challenge in the differential diagnosis of diffuse alopecia: female androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium and alopecia areata – part II
Diagnosing diffuse alopecia, a hair loss condition, can be challenging and may require a scalp biopsy or tracking the disease's progression when symptoms and skin tests aren't enough.
research Planning for Maximum Coverage in Surgical Hair Restoration
Walter P. Unger suggests using advanced hair transplant techniques for broader coverage, as they provide natural results and use donor tissue efficiently, while also recommending personalized planning due to the unpredictable progression of baldness.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Cucurbitacin promotes hair growth in mice by inhibiting the expression of fibroblast growth factor 18
Cucurbitacin helps mice grow hair by blocking a protein that stops hair growth.
research Exploring rat corpus cavernosum alterations induced by finasteride treatment and withdrawal
Finasteride changes hormone levels and certain proteins in rats, but these effects can be reversed after stopping the drug.
research Change in hair growth-related gene expression profile in human isolated hair follicles induced by 5-alpha reductase inhibitors – dutasteride and finasteride – in the presence of testosterone
Dutasteride and finasteride can help increase hair growth gene expression but need further improvement.
research Treatment of hyperandrogenism in polycystic ovary syndrome
Hormonal therapies are effective for managing hair and skin symptoms in women with PCOS.
research Resident T cell activation leads to human hair follicle immune privilege loss ex vivo, which is prevented by the DHODH inhibitor farudodstat: relevance for alopecia areata
Farudodstat may help prevent hair loss in alopecia areata by stopping immune attacks on hair follicles.
research Study on the Efficacy and Potential Mechanism of Topical Shen Bai Hair Growing Decoction against Androgenetic Alopecia Based on Ultrahigh Performance Liquid Chromatography Quadrupole Time-of-Flight Mass Spectrometry and RNA-seq
The Shen Bai Hair Growing Decoction may help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth and reducing inflammation.
research 27 Preclinical ex vivo and in vivo evidence supporting selective inhibition of tyrosine kinase 2-dependent, IL-12-mediated signaling as a novel pharmacological strategy for alopecia areata management
Blocking TYK2 might be a new way to treat hair loss from alopecia areata.
research Hair Loss Physiology and Transplantation Principles
Hair loss is caused by hormonal changes that shorten hair growth phases and shrink hair follicles.
research Abstract 1219: Defective catagen entry in EGFR deficient skin precedes cutaneous inflammation
EGFR deficiency in skin causes hair follicle issues and inflammation.
research Treatment of alopecia universalis with topical Janus kinase inhibitors – a double blind, placebo, and active controlled pilot study
Topical JAK inhibitors may help treat alopecia universalis by promoting hair regrowth.
research From Eye Care to Hair Growth: Bimatoprost
Bimatoprost helps with hair growth and eye conditions but can be costly and have side effects.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
research Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor whn regulates hair keratin gene expression: Molecular analysis of theNude skin phenotype
Whn is essential for hair growth, and its malfunction causes hair loss.
