research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 22-1 (KAP22-1) Gene and Its Effect on Wool Traits
The gene KAP22-1 affects wool yield and fiber shape in sheep.
research Fibroblast growth factor 5-short (FGF5s) inhibits the activity of FGF5 in primary and secondary hair follicle dermal papilla cells of cashmere goats
FGF5s can block the effects of FGF5, which may help control hair growth in cashmere goats.
research Evidence-based approach to cutaneous hyperandrogenism in women
The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.
research Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior
Hair growth is influenced by various body and external factors, and neighboring hairs communicate to synchronize regeneration.
research Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia
Non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia is a common disorder causing symptoms like acne and infertility, and it's managed based on symptoms, not just test results. Treatment can improve fertility and reduce miscarriage risk.
research Prospective Cohort Study on the Effects and Tolerability of Flutamide in Patients with Female Pattern Hair Loss
Flutamide effectively treats female pattern hair loss with low doses showing good liver tolerance.
research Measuring changes in chemistry, composition, and molecular structure within hair fibers by infrared and Raman spectroscopic imaging
Infrared and Raman imaging can non-destructively analyze hair structure and help diagnose hair conditions.
research Use of dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy in therapeutic follow-up: a review
Dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy are useful and reliable for tracking treatment progress in various skin conditions.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research 3D printed microneedles: revamping transdermal drug delivery systems
3D-printed microneedles improve drug delivery by being precise, cost-effective, and less invasive.
research Low-level laser therapy for the treatment of androgenic alopecia: a review
Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) is a safe and effective treatment for common hair loss, but more research is needed to find the best power and wavelength for treatment.
research Follicular Unit Extraction
FUE provides minimal scarring and quick recovery in hair transplantation, and surgeons not using it may lag in technology.
research Androgen receptor gene polymorphisms and risk for androgenetic alopecia: a meta-analysis
G allele of AR Stul polymorphism linked to higher hair loss risk, especially in white people.
research Tobacco and the skin
Smoking harms skin health, causing slower wound healing, more wrinkles, and worsening some skin conditions, but may protect against certain others.
research De Novo Production of Dermal Papilla Cells during the Anagen Phase of the Hair Cycle
New cells are added to the hair's dermal papilla during the active growth phase.
research Androgens and Antiandrogens
Male hormones, or androgens, affect women's health in areas like mood and bone density, and hormone replacement therapy using antiandrogenic progestogens can improve mood disorders and alertness in menopausal women.
research Complementary and Alternative Treatments for Alopecia: A Comprehensive Review
Some alternative treatments for hair loss might work, but more research is needed.
research Follicular dermal papilla structures by organization of epithelial and mesenchymal cells in interfacial polyelectrolyte complex fibers
Scientists created 3D hair-like structures that could help study hair growth and test treatments.
research Epidermal Stem Cells Manipulated by pDNA-VEGF165/CYD-PEI Nanoparticles Loaded Gelatin/β-TCP Matrix as a Therapeutic Agent and Gene Delivery Vehicle for Wound Healing
The gelatin/β-TCP scaffold with nanoparticles improves wound healing and skin regeneration.
research Evidence-based treatments for female pattern hair loss: a summary of a Cochrane systematic review
Minoxidil helps regrow hair in female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
