A rare genetic skin condition usually affecting males was found in a 9-year-old girl.
research Stereocontrolled synthesis of all eight stereoisomers of the putative anti-androgen cyoctol
Scientists made all eight versions of a compound called cyoctol, but found it's not an anti-androgen and it fully breaks down in the skin.
research Cultured nail keratinocytes express hard keratins characteristic of nail and hair in vivo
Lab-grown nail cells show characteristics similar to natural nail and hair.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris in HLA-identical mother and daughter
A mother and daughter with similar hair loss conditions and identical HLA types suggest a genetic link between the conditions.
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 Molecular Basis for Hair Loss in Mice Carrying a Novel Nonsense Mutation (Hrrh-R) in the Hairless Gene (Hr)
A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research Tumor Promotion in Skin: Are Active Oxygen Species Involved?
Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.
