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 Global Landscapes of Human Phenotypic Variation in Inherited Traits
Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.
research Cutaneous drug reactions
Any drug can cause skin reactions, but antibiotics, NSAIDs, and psychotropic drugs are more common, with some reactions being life-threatening.
research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - Challenges and Opportunities in Adolescent Medicine
Early treatment of PCOS in teens is crucial to prevent long-term health issues like diabetes and heart disease.
research American College of Veterinary Behaviorists 2003 Scientific Session Abstracts
Transdermal fluoxetine is less effective in cats, clomipramine may help with feline alopecia, younger dogs often start fights, dietary changes can reduce cribbing in horses, negative aggression tests in shelter dogs predict good behavior, many older cats show cognitive issues, and fluoxetine or paroxetine can improve canine anxiety.
research Factors associated with early-onset androgenetic alopecia: A scoping review
Early-onset baldness is linked to genetics, lifestyle, and can indicate higher risk for heart and metabolic diseases, and affects mental health.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research Acne Vulgaris
Acne vulgaris is a common skin condition that can cause low self-esteem and depression, and early treatment is important to prevent scarring.
research Alopecia androgénica femenina: nuevos factores fisiopatológicos y futuras tendencias para un abordaje clínico más integral
New factors in female hair loss include genetics, hormones, stress, and inflammation; future treatments should also focus on these areas and consider the patient's emotional well-being.
research Kennedy's disease and partial androgen insensitivity syndrome. Report of 4 cases and literature review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Fondation René Touraine

research Apoptosis May Explain the Pharmacological Mode of Action and Adverse Effects of Isotretinoin, Including Teratogenicity
Isotretinoin's effects and side effects, like birth defects and depression, might be due to it causing cell death in various cells.
research Beta-caryophyllene enhances wound healing through multiple routes
Beta-caryophyllene helps improve wound healing in mice, especially in females.
research Potential targets in the discovery of new hair growth promoters for androgenic alopecia
The document concludes that targeting 5α-reductase, the androgen receptor, and hair growth genes, along with using compounds with anti-androgenic properties, could lead to more effective hair loss treatments.
research Finasteride Enhances the Generation of Human Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells by Up-Regulating the COX2/PGE2 Pathway
Finasteride boosts immune cells that suppress T-cells, possibly helping with immune disorders but may increase cancer risk.
research Proline-rich protein-like PRPL1 controls elongation of root hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana
A gene in Arabidopsis thaliana, AtPRPL1, affects root hair length but not cell wall composition.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
