Research
750-780 / 1000+ resultsresearch [Hirsutism].
Hirsutism is excessive male-pattern hair growth in women, often treated cosmetically or with hormone therapy if contraception is also desired.
research Novel inhibitors of 5α-reductase
New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
research Differential expression of steroid 5α-reductase isozymes and association with disease severity and angiogenic genes predict their biological role in prostate cancer
SRD5A1 is crucial in advanced prostate cancer, and blocking both SRD5A1 and SRD5A2 is more effective than targeting SRD5A2 alone.
research Clinical Snippets
Vitamin D helps protect skin, PSORS1 gene's risk interval for psoriasis is expanded, hair follicles can be generated from mouse cells, and interferon-γ may cause pigmented skin lesions.
research Pinkie, the First Viable Germline Hypomorph Allele of Retinoid X Receptor Alpha, Reveals an Important Role for RXRa in Th2 Development.
RXRa is crucial for Th2 immune cell development and may link nutrition to immune health.
research ARHGEF3 Regulates Hair Follicle Morphogenesis
ARHGEF3 is essential for proper hair follicle development.
research A comparative study of Aldactone® and Diane® in the treatment of hirsutism
Aldactone was more effective in reducing hair growth in women with hirsutism than Diane, despite having less impact on hormone levels.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research A retrospective review of hyperaesthetic leucotrichia in horses in the USA
Hyperaesthetic leucotrichia in horses causes painful, recurring skin lesions and hair color changes, especially in Arabian and American paint horses.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Maintain Hair Follicle Homeostasis
The vitamin D receptor is essential for normal hair growth, even without its usual binding.
research The novel drug CS-891 inhibits 5alpha-reductase activity in freshly isolated dermal papilla of human hair follicles.
CS-891 may effectively treat hair loss by blocking enzymes in hair follicles.
research Case report: Exploring autosomal recessive woolly hair: genetic and scanning electron microscopic perspectives on a Japanese patient
A genetic mutation in the LIPH gene causes tightly curled hair that stops growing in some Japanese individuals.
research Unexpectedly high carrier rates and genotype/phenotype correlation; LIPH mutations in Japanese autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis
Certain gene mutations in Japanese people are linked to different types of hair loss, with some causing mild hair thinning and others leading to complete baldness.
research Human Hair Follicles Operate a Functional Peripheral Equivalent of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Somatotropic Axis Ex Vivo
Human scalp hair follicles can produce hormones and have a system similar to a brain-body communication network.
research 1397 LSD1 is critical for epidermal development and skin barrier formation
LSD1 is essential for healthy skin development and creating the skin's protective barrier.
research 5α-Reductase type 2 gene variant associations with prostate cancer risk, circulating hormone levels and androgenetic alopecia
A49T gene variant linked to higher prostate cancer risk, lower hormone levels, and slightly reduced balding risk.
research Ectoderm-Targeted Overexpression of the Glucocorticoid Receptor Induces Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia
Overexpression of the glucocorticoid receptor in mice causes developmental defects similar to ectodermal dysplasia.
research 707 Hypoxia induced Multipotent Stem Cell-Secreted Proteins Induce Hair Growth in a Phase 1a/2b trial in Male Pattern Baldness
A trial showed that a new treatment is safe and effective for male pattern baldness, with most participants growing new hair.
research 804 Human hair follicles operate core elements of a functional peripheral equivalent of the central hypothalamic-pituitary-thyroid axis
Human hair follicles have their own thyroid hormone system.
research In Vitro Hair Growth Promoting Effect of a Noncrosslinked Hyaluronic Acid in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Noncrosslinked hyaluronic acid helps human hair cells grow and could be a potential hair loss treatment.
research Abstract 151
Activating TLR3 helps improve skin and hair follicle regeneration after wounds.
research Hirsutism, its pathogenesis
Hirsutism in females is caused by high male hormones or sensitive hair follicles.
research A Case of Rhupus with Rowell Syndrome
A patient with Rhupus was diagnosed with Rowell syndrome and treated with various medications.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Association of topical minoxidil with autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis caused by LIPH pathogenic variants.
research CD133 defines hair-inductive cells in the dermal papilla
CD133+ cells are crucial for hair growth.
research Hypoxia improves hair inductivity of dermal papilla cells via nuclearNADPH oxidase 4‐mediated reactive oxygen species generation'
Low oxygen levels can make hair-growing cells better at growing hair through a process involving reactive oxygen species.
research 881 Ionizing radiation triggers dedifferentiation of outer root sheath cells into stem cell-like progenitors for hair follicle regeneration
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Double-stranded RNA induces inflammation via the NF-κB pathway and inflammasome activation in the outer root sheath cells of hair follicles
Double-stranded RNA causes inflammation in hair follicle cells, which may help understand and treat alopecia areata.
