research Expression of the RORα gene in Inner Mongolian cashmere goat hair follicles
The RORα gene is active in different parts of cashmere goat hair follicles and may be influenced by melatonin, especially in December when hair growth changes.
research Emerging pharmacotherapies and regenerative solutions for promoting hair growth for androgenetic alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise but need more testing for effectiveness and safety.
research Human Female Hair Follicles Are a Direct, Nonclassical Target for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Role of Csdc2 in Regulating Secondary Hair Follicle Growth in Cashmere Goats
Csdc2 helps hair growth in cashmere goats by regulating specific genes.
research Acne-associated syndromes: models for better understanding of acne pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research A Subset of TREM2+ Dermal Macrophages Secretes Oncostatin M to Maintain Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Inhibit Hair Growth
Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
research S1 OPIOID RECEPTOR AGONISTS AND SERUM PROSTATE SPECIFIC ANTIGENE LEVEL: IS THERE A ROLE FOR PROSTATE CANCER CONTROL AND CHEMOPREVENTION?
Opioid use may lower PSA levels, suggesting a possible role in prostate cancer control; PSA testing is useful for detecting prostate cancer; serum triglycerides are not linked to prostate cancer risk; and higher urethral PSA levels may be associated with local hormone activity.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research The role of hair follicles and Edar signalling in cutaneous wound healing
Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
research Key targets of hormonal treatment of prostate cancer. Part 2: the androgen receptor and 5α-reductase
Blocking DHT production more strongly may help control advanced prostate cancer and improve quality of life.
research Effect of inhibiting prolactin secretion on secondary hair follicle development in cashmere goats
Inhibiting prolactin reduces hair follicle activation in cashmere goats.
research Activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-3 Inhibits Human Hair Growth
Activating TRPV3 stops human hair growth.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research ESTROGEN RECEPTORS OF HAIRS BLACKS AND WHITES
Females have higher estrogen receptor levels in hair than males, and these levels decrease in white hair compared to black hair.
research A New Heterozygous Variant of c.1225_1227delTTC (p.Phe409del) in Insulin Receptor Gene Associated with Severe Insulin Resistance and Hyperandrogenemia in an Adolescent Female with Type A Severe Insulin Resistance Syndrome
A specific gene variant is linked to severe insulin resistance and hormone imbalance in a teenage girl.
research Association of Gly972Arg variant of insulin receptor subtrate-1 and Gly1057Asp variant of insulin receptor subtrate-2 with polycystic ovary syndrome in the Chinese population
The IRS-2 Asp/Asp genotype may increase the risk of PCOS in Chinese women, especially if they are not obese.
