research The role of the microenvironment on the fate of adult stem cells
The microenvironment controls adult stem cells' behavior and fate.
research Rooster feathering, androgenic alopecia, and hormone-dependent tumor growth: What is in common?
Sex hormones affect hair and feather growth and may help manage alopecia and hormone-dependent cancers.
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 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research Finasteride delays the onset of maternal behavior in primigravid rats
Finasteride slows down motherly behavior in first-time pregnant rats.
research Exposure of Xenopus laevis tadpoles to finasteride, an inhibitor of 5-α reductase activity, impairs spermatogenesis and alters hypophyseal feedback mechanisms
Finasteride exposure harms tadpole reproduction and hormone balance.
research Neonatal finasteride administration alters hippocampal α4 and δ GABAAR subunits expression and behavioural responses to progesterone in adult rats
research Therapeutic Androgen Receptor Ligands
Androgens and SARMs play a role in body mass, frailty, skin health, and hair growth, and are used in treating prostate cancer, acne, and hair loss, with potential for new uses and improved versions in the future.
research The genetics of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata has a complex genetic basis that was not fully understood as of 2001.
research Safety aspects of androgen treatment with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT is a strong androgen that may pose less risk to the prostate compared to testosterone.
research Evaluation of wavelength-dependent hair growth effects on low-level laser therapy: an experimental animal study
The 830-nm wavelength was most effective at promoting hair growth in rats using low-level laser therapy.
research External post mortem artefact: a key issue in hair result interpretation
Hair test results can be misleading due to contamination, so they shouldn't be used alone to determine drug use.
research Alopecia and Hirsuties
The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excessive hair growth are temporary and not well-studied.
research Dopa oxidase activity in the hair, skin and ocular melanocytes is increased in the presence of stressed fibroblasts
Stressed fibroblasts greatly increase melanin production in hair, skin, and eye cells, mainly due to a growth factor called bFGF.
research Frequency of body dysmorphic disorder among patients with complaints of hair loss
Patients with hair loss are much more likely to have body dysmorphic disorder than general dermatology patients.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor in Sepsis
Topical eye β-blockers might cause hair loss, which usually gets better after stopping the medication.
research Mechanisms of tolerance and potential therapeutic interventions in Alopecia Areata
Targeting immune tolerance issues in Alopecia Areata could restore hair growth and maintain remission.
research Age-Related Differences for Male-to-Female Transgender Patients Undergoing Gender-Affirming Surgery
Younger transgender women have surgery earlier, are mostly attracted to men, and show more preoperative depression that improves after surgery compared to older transgender women.
research The effects of finasteride (Proscar) on hair growth, hair cycle stage, and serum testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in adult male and female stumptail macaques (Macaca arctoides).
Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.
research Androgenetic alopecia: effects of oral finasteride on hormone profile, reproduction and sexual function
Finasteride safely treats hair loss without harming hormones or reproduction, but may slightly reduce sexual function.
research Marked Reduction of the Number and Individual Volume of Sebaceous Glands in Psoriatic Lesions
Psoriasis lesions have fewer and smaller oil glands, which might affect the condition's development.
research Premature adrenarche, polycystic ovary syndrome and intrauterine growth retardation: does a relationship exist?
Low birthweight and rapid weight gain after birth may increase the risk of developing polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Localization of Cathepsins B, D, L, LAMP-1 and .MU.-Calpain in Developing Hair Follicles.
Lysosomal proteases and cytoplasmic enzymes help hair follicle cells develop and differentiate.
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.
research Protective effects of finasteride on the pulmonary immune response in a combined model of trauma-hemorrhage and polymicrobial sepsis in mice
Finasteride helps reduce lung inflammation and damage after trauma and infection.
research Root hair growth from the pH point of view
pH changes are crucial for root hair growth because they affect enzymes and proteins that control the cell wall and growth.
research A Histological and Clinical Evaluation of Plasma as a Graft Holding Solution and Its Efficacy in Terms of Hair Growth and Graft Survival
Plasma is better than Ringer's lactate for hair graft survival and growth after transplantation.
research Evaluation of trichodynia (hair pain) during chemotherapy or tamoxifen treatment in breast cancer patients
Hair and scalp pain is more common and severe in breast cancer patients on chemotherapy than those on tamoxifen.
research Rodent models in placental research. Implications for fetal origins of adult disease
Using rodents for research shows that health problems in the womb can cause diseases later in life.
