research Bimatoprost versus clobetasol propionate in scalp alopecia areata: A prospective non-randomized open-label clinical trial
Bimatoprost and clobetasol are both effective for scalp hair loss, but bimatoprost works faster, has fewer side effects, and grows more colored hair.
research Valorization of Hom Thong Banana Peel (Musa sp., AAA Group) as an Anti-Melanogenic Agent Through Inhibition of Pigmentary Genes and Molecular Docking Study
Hom Thong banana peels can help reduce skin pigmentation by inhibiting melanin production.
research Corticotropin-releasing hormone inhibits autophagy by suppressing PTEN to promote apoptosis in dermal papilla cells
CRH can cause hair loss by promoting cell death in hair growth cells.
research Selective Expression of Chemokine Monokine Induced by Interferon-γ in Alopecia Areata
Targeting MIG and MCP-1 may help treat inflammation in alopecia areata.
research Immunopotentiator from Pantoea agglomerans 1 (IP-PA1) Promotes Murine Hair Growth and Human Dermal Papilla Cell Gene Expression.
IP-PA1 helps grow hair in mice and affects human cell growth-related genes differently than traditional hair growth treatments.
research Adrenal steroid hormone concentrations in dogs with hair cycle arrest (Alopecia X) before and during treatment with melatonin and mitotane
Melatonin and mitotane treatment led to hair re-growth in 62% of dogs with Alopecia X, but this was not always linked to normal hormone levels.
research Hairless and the polyamine putrescine form a negative regulatory loop in the epidermis
Hairless protein and putrescine regulate each other, affecting hair growth and skin balance.
research Tumour Necrosis Factor Alpha, Interferon Gamma and Substance P Are Novel Modulators of Extrapituitary Prolactin Expression in Human Skin
TNFα, IFNγ, and Substance P significantly affect prolactin levels in human skin, suggesting new treatments for skin and hair conditions.
research Mitoxantrone
Mitoxantrone with a corticosteroid helps manage symptoms for some advanced prostate cancer patients but doesn't extend life.
research [Proliferation behavior of the anagen hair bulb in androgenetic alopecia before and after local administration of 17 alpha- propylmesterolone–DNA flow cytophotometry studies].
Topical 17 alpha-propylmesterolone increases hair cell growth in androgenetic alopecia.
research Two novel CreERT2 transgenic mouse lines to study melanocytic cells in vivo
New mouse models help study melanocytic cells for melanoma research.
research Procyanidin Oligomers Counteract TGF-β1- and TGF-β2-Induced Apoptosis in Hair Epithelial Cells: An Insight into Their Mechanisms
Procyanidin compounds from apples and barley promote hair growth and prevent hair cell death.
research Editor's evaluation: Crosstalk with keratinocytes causes GNAQ oncogene specificity in melanoma
Keratinocytes can reduce the survival of certain melanoma cells, suggesting new therapy paths.
research A novel microparticle based formulation for topical delivery of FOL-005, a small peptide
The new skin cream with FOL-005 safely promotes hair growth and is stable and user-friendly.
research LB1017 A novel link between human hair follicle neuroimmunology and mitochondrial biology: Substance P increases intrafollicular oxidative stress and mitochondrial biogenesis
Substance P may contribute to hair loss by increasing oxidative stress and mitochondrial activity in hair follicles.
research 1272 p21Waf1/Cip1 is differentially expressed in epidermal versus follicular melanocytes and melanoma cells and is phenotypically regulated by UVB-mediated apoptosis
The protein p21 is more abundant in normal skin cells than in melanoma cells and may help protect against melanoma, with UVB light affecting its levels.
research EdnrB Governs Regenerative Response of Melanocyte Stem Cells by Crosstalk with Wnt Signaling
EdnrB signaling helps melanocyte stem cells regenerate and could be targeted to treat pigmentation issues.
research Epimorphin and Epithelial Morphogenesis
Epimorphin helps shape and develop epithelial cells, like those in hair follicles.
research Melanocytes: A possible autoimmune target in alopecia areata
Melanocytes might be targeted by the immune system in people with alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Carvone Decreases Melanin Content by Inhibiting Melanoma Cell Proliferation via the Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) Pathway
Carvone helps treat skin issues by reducing melanin and stopping harmful cell growth.
research [Bimatoprost promotes hair growth of reconstructed hair follicles in mice through activation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway].
Bimatoprost helps mouse hair grow by turning on a specific growth pathway.
research Prostaglandin analogs for hair growth: Great Expectations
Prostaglandin analogs like Latanoprost might help grow hair on the scalp and body.
