research A Review on Hydrogels with Photothermal Effect in Wound Healing and Bone Tissue Engineering
Photothermal hydrogels are promising for infection control and tissue repair, and combining them with other treatments could improve results and lower costs.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Androgens in women
Androgens play a complex role in skin conditions like acne and hair loss in women, and normal blood levels don't always show true androgen status.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.
research EEMCO Guidance for the Assessment of Hair Shedding and Alopecia
The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
research A novel finasteride 0.25% topical solution for androgenetic alopecia: pharmacokinetics and effects on plasma androgen levels in healthy male volunteers
New finasteride solution effectively reduces baldness-causing hormone, potentially with fewer side effects.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
Maintaining the right amount of retinoic acid is crucial for healthy hair and skin.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss and Androgen Excess: A Report From the Multidisciplinary Androgen Excess and PCOS Committee
Use "female pattern hair loss" term, assess androgen excess, treat with minoxidil and other medications if needed.
research Red Ginseng Extract Promotes the Hair Growth in Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Red Ginseng Extract may help human hair grow by activating growth pathways and blocking negative effects of certain hormones.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Noncoding dsRNA induces retinoic acid synthesis to stimulate hair follicle regeneration via TLR3
Noncoding dsRNA boosts hair growth by activating TLR3 and increasing retinoic acid.
research Promotion of homology-directed DNA repair by polyamines
Polyamines help fix DNA damage accurately in cells.
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 Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research Current advances of Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides in dermatology: a literature review
Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides may help with hair growth, skin moisturization, and protection against oxidative damage.
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 Evidence-based approach to cutaneous hyperandrogenism in women
The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.
research Skin aging as a mechanical phenomenon: The main weak links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
Growing hair follicles have high mitochondrial activity and ROS in specific regions, aiding hair formation.
research Evidence-based treatments for female pattern hair loss: a summary of a Cochrane systematic review

Gene therapy has potential as a future treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
research The regeneration blastema of lizards: an amniote model for the study of appendage replacement
Lizards can regrow their tails, and studying this process helps understand scar-free healing and limb regeneration.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Anabolic-androgenic steroids and cardiovascular risk
Using steroids can increase the risk of heart problems.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
