930-960 / 1000+ resultsresearch 1 Androgens
Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.
research A sandwich-like silk fibroin/polysaccharide composite dressing with continual biofluid draining for wound exudate management
The new dressing speeds up wound healing better than current options.
research Microneedles mediated bioinspired lipid nanocarriers for targeted treatment of alopecia
A new hair loss treatment uses tiny needles to deliver a drug-loaded lipid carrier, promoting hair growth more effectively than current treatments.
research Experimental and thermodynamic analyses of supercritical CO2-Solubility of minoxidil as an antihypertensive drug
Minoxidil dissolves better in propylene glycol + water than in supercritical CO2.
research Ginsenoside Rb1 retards aging process by regulating cell cycle, apoptotic pathway and metabolism of aging mice
Ginsenoside Rb1 slows down aging in mice by affecting cell growth, cell death, and metabolism.
research The ITGB6 gene: its role in experimental and clinical biology
The ITGB6 gene is important for tissue repair and hair growth, and mutations can lead to enamel defects and other health issues.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Ginsenoside Rb1 promotes the growth of mink hair follicle via PI3K/AKT/GSK-3β signaling pathway
Ginsenoside Rb1 from Panax ginseng helps mink hair grow by activating certain cell signals.
research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Trichoscopy Tips
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair and scalp issues, but doctors must be careful to avoid mistakes.
research Auxin modulates root-hair growth through its signaling pathway in citrus
Auxin controls root-hair growth in citrus by affecting its signaling pathway.
research Hormone-dependent medial preoptic/lumbar spinal cord/autonomic coordination supporting male sexual behaviors
Testosterone and its byproducts help support male sexual behavior through different pathways in the brain and body.
research Thymosin β4 Promotes Dermal Healing
Thymosin β4 helps improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
research Use of Body Hair and Beard Hair in Hair Restoration
Body and beard hair can be used for hair restoration in severely bald patients, but the technique is complex and costly.
research Necrosis of the donor site after hair restoration with follicular unit extraction (FUE): A case report
A patient had skin tissue death at the hair removal site after a hair transplant, which was treated with surgery.
research Androgenic alopecia is not useful as an indicator of men at high risk of prostate cancer
Baldness at age 40 is not linked to a higher risk of aggressive prostate cancer.
research Historical aspects of dermatomycoses
Doctors have known about fungal skin infections for a long time, but only made major progress in understanding and treating them since the mid-1800s.
research Hard alpha-keratin degradation inside a tissue under high flux X-ray synchrotron micro-beam: A multi-scale time-resolved study
High flux X-ray beams quickly damage the structure of human hair.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Wnt-10b secreted from lymphocytes promotes differentiation of skin epithelial cells
Wnt-10b helps skin cells and hair grow.
research Intragenic deletion in the Desmoglein 4 gene underlies the skin phenotype in the Iffa Credo “hairless” rat
A gene deletion causes the "hairless" trait in Iffa Credo rats.
research Ketocazole as an adjunct to finasteride in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia in men
Ketoconazole shampoo with finasteride improves hair density in men with hair loss.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Hormonal prevention of prostate cancer
Suppressing certain hormones might help prevent prostate cancer.
research Inhibitory effect of M50054, a novel inhibitor of apoptosis, on anti-Fas-antibody-induced hepatitis and chemotherapy-induced alopecia
M50054 may help treat hepatitis and hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Disorders of excessive hair growth in the adolescent
Hirsutism in teen girls is common, usually harmless, but can sometimes signal serious issues and is treatable.
research HAIR DISEASES
Most hair loss can be diagnosed with patient history and physical exam, and a few common types make up most cases.
research Keratinocyte stem cells of cornea, skin and hair follicles
Keratinocyte stem cells help regenerate and repair cornea, skin, and hair.
research Structural features and sites of expression of a new murine 65 kD and 48 kD hair-related keratin pair, associated with a special type of parakeratotic epithelial differentiation
A new pair of mouse keratins, 65 kD and 48 kD, are found in specific skin areas and are linked to a unique skin differentiation type.
