research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Liposomal systems as drug delivery vehicles for dermal and transdermal applications
Liposomal systems show promise for delivering drugs through the skin but face challenges like high costs and stability issues.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil
PEVs improve minoxidil skin penetration, increasing hair growth.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Minoxidil in severe hypertension: Value when conventional drugs have failed
Minoxidil effectively controls blood pressure in severe cases, but may cause fluid retention and edema.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Increased Vibrissa Growth in Transgenic Mice Expressing Insulin-like Growth Factor 1
IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.
research Minoxidil Stimulates Elastin Expression in Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
research CD34 glycoprotein identifies putative stem cells located in the isthmic region of canine hair follicles
CD34 marks potential stem cells in dog hair follicles.
research Cutaneous features of myotonic dystrophy types 1 and 2: Implication of premature aging and vitamin D homeostasis
Patients with myotonic dystrophy often have skin problems that suggest early aging and vitamin D issues, and the severity of these problems is linked to their genetic condition and vitamin D levels.
research Identification of a new plant extract for androgenic alopecia treatment using a non-radioactive human hair dermal papilla cell-based assay
A new plant extract from Avicennia marina could potentially be used to treat common hair loss.
research Stimulation of elastin expression by minoxidil in chick skin fibroblasts
Minoxidil boosts elastin production, potentially helping skin diseases.
research Androgens in Women – Critical Evaluation of the Methods for Their Determination in Diagnostics of Endocrine Disorders
The conclusion is that standardizing testosterone measurement methods is essential for better diagnosis accuracy in women.
research TR3 is preferentially expressed by bulge epithelial stem cells in human hair follicles
TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.
research Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing skin, with potential for treating skin disorders and improving wound healing.
research Modelling androgen synthesis and action during human sexual differentiation
Male sexual differentiation is regulated independently, while female differentiation occurs in an androgenic environment, affecting conditions like congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Nitrogen and carbon isotope signatures in cattle hair
Cattle hair isotope analysis can reveal diet and farm system characteristics.
research Pharmacokinetics and Bioconversion of Dehydroepiandrosterone after Application of Dexamethasone in Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have higher 5alpha-reductase activity, affecting steroid levels.
research Message of protease nexin-1 is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and is affected by androgen
Protease Nexin-1 is found in human hair growth cells and is affected by male hormones.
research Evaluation of permissible level of soluble I-131 containing fission products for design of protective measures in livestock industry
Cows can safely graze after a nuclear incident if iodine exposure is managed, as doses below 30 Gy don't harm them long-term.
research Diagnosis and treatment of polonium poisoning
Polonium poisoning is diagnosed by detecting it in urine and feces, and treated with supportive care, infection prevention, and chelation therapy.
research The use of electron spin resonance techniques to determine gamma ray exposure of $\alpha$-keratin in human hair
Whole hair strands can reliably measure gamma ray exposure using ESR techniques, but samples should be analyzed quickly or stored in liquid nitrogen.
research Accumulation of I131 by the skin and hair of animals and man
Radioiodine-131 significantly accumulates in skin and hair.
research Effects of Heavy Ions on Rabbit Tissues: Damage to the Forebrain
Heavy ions cause significant damage to rabbit forebrains, similar to other radiation effects.
