research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia as Model Epithelial Stem Cell Diseases
Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia may help us understand hair follicle stem cell disorders and suggest new treatments.
research Chronic Restraint Stress Inhibits Hair Growth via Substance P Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species in Mice
Chronic stress can cause hair loss by increasing oxidative stress, but antioxidants may help.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Red ginseng monograph
Red ginseng may improve immunity, fatigue, memory, blood circulation, and menopausal symptoms, and is generally safe to consume.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research Functional enhancement strategies for immunomodulation of mesenchymal stem cells and their therapeutic application
New methods to improve the healing abilities of mesenchymal stem cells for disease treatment are promising but need more research.
research Characteristics of Androgenetic Alopecia in Asian
Asian hair loss differs from Europeans; consider individual needs and psychological well-being for treatment.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update on Diagnosis and Management
FAGA diagnosis uses blood tests and trichoscopy, with treatments like topical minoxidil, oral anti-androgens, and hormone-modulating drugs.
research Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
research Adiponectin Signaling Regulates Lipid Production in Human Sebocytes
Adiponectin boosts lipid production in skin cells, potentially helping treat skin conditions with low sebum.
research Hair growth effect of minoxidil
Minoxidil helps hair grow by improving blood flow and increasing growth factors in hair follicles.
research Drug repositioning using in silico compound profiling
Using computers to analyze drugs can find new uses for them, but actual experiments are needed to confirm these uses.
research Emerging Therapies for Acne Vulgaris
New acne treatments show promise as alternatives to traditional therapies.
research Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Other Antiandrogens
Spironolactone works well for acne and hirsutism, isotretinoin is very effective for acne and may have antiandrogenic effects, and 5 alpha-reductase inhibitors should be considered antiandrogens.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Androgens and hair: a biological paradox with clinical consequences
Androgens can both increase body hair and cause scalp hair loss.
research Adipose and Hair Function: An aPPARent Connection
Fat tissue and a specific protein are crucial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.
research Hair aging and anti-aging
Hair ages due to various factors and treatments like minoxidil and finasteride can help, but more research and better public awareness are needed.
research Angelica gigas Nakai (Korean Dang-gui) Root Alcoholic Extracts in Health Promotion and Disease Therapy – active Phytochemicals and In Vivo Molecular Targets
Angelica gigas Nakai root extracts may help with cancer, pain, memory loss, and metabolic issues.
research Sexually dimorphic sail feathers in the Mandarin duck as a model for lifelong developmental modulation
Mandarin duck sail feathers change with seasons due to hormones and genetic regulation.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Precision therapeutics in non-scarring alopecia: a systemic genomic and pathway-based framework for targeted interventions
Personalized treatments for hair loss focus on specific genetic and biological pathways.
research Updates in Treatment for Androgenetic Alopecia
New treatments for hair loss include low-dose oral minoxidil, light therapy, and innovative therapies targeting hair growth mechanisms.
research Neuroendocrine Controls of Keratin Expression in Human Skin
Neurohormones help control skin health and could treat skin disorders.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
