research Towards Dissecting the Pathogenesis of Retinoid-Induced Hair Loss: All-Trans Retinoic Acid Induces Premature Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen) by Upregulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β2 in the Dermal Papilla
All-trans retinoic acid causes hair loss by increasing TGF-β2 in hair follicle cells.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Topical immunotherapy in alopecia areata
Topical immunotherapy, especially with DPCP, is effective for treating severe alopecia areata.
research Perifollicular Fibrosis: Pathogenetic Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen hormones cause hair follicle scarring in hair loss, and finasteride helps reduce it.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Azasteroids as inhibitors of testosterone 5α-reductase in mammalian skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research Blimp1+ cells generate functional mouse sebaceous gland organoids in vitro
Single Blimp1+ cells can create functional sebaceous gland organoids in the lab.
research Human hair follicles operate an internal Cori cycle and modulate their growth via glycogen phosphorylase
Inhibiting glycogen metabolism can promote hair growth.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Comparisons of mouse models for hair follicle reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research Retinoid-mediated stimulation of steroid sulfatase activity in myeloid leukemic cell lines requires RARα and RXR and involves the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Sex-specific Difference of Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Response to Sex Neurosteroids
Sex neurosteroids cause different effects on hippocampal synaptic plasticity in males and females.
research The effect of cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) inhibitor, on human hair growth with the dual promoting mechanisms
Cilostazol helps hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and changing growth factor levels.
research Cronkhite-Canada syndrome: Report of an unusual case
The report described a unique case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with unusual polyps and an association with multiple myeloma.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
research Development of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata Is Associated with Cardiac Dysfunction in C3H/HeJ Mice
Mice with autoimmune hair loss showed signs of heart problems.
research Screening of synthetic and natural product databases: Identification of novel androgens and antiandrogens
Researchers found new potential treatments for conditions related to the androgen receptor, like male hormonal contraception, by testing thousands of compounds.
research Prolongation of off-cycle interval by finasteride is not associated with survival improvement in intermittent androgen deprivation therapy in LNCaP tumor model
Finasteride doesn't improve survival in LNCaP tumor model during off-cycle of therapy.
research Therapeutic effect of exosomes derived from hepatocyte-growth-factor-overexpressing adipose mesenchymal stem cells on liver injury
Exosomes from modified stem cells may help treat liver injury.
research CAG polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene in women may be associated with nodulocystic acne
Certain gene variations might be linked to severe acne in women but not in men.
research Glioblastoma cells express crucial enzymes involved in androgen synthesis: 3β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase, 17‐20α‐hydroxylase, 17β‐hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase and 5α‐reductase
Glioblastoma cells can make androgens, which might help the tumor grow.
research What’s Diet Got to Do With It? Basic and Clinical Science Behind Diet and Acne
Diet may influence acne development.
research Androgen Receptor Ligands: Agonists and Antagonists
Different substances that activate or block the androgen receptor can affect male development and treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research A umbilical cord blood-derived exosome product simulates hair growth through laminin V and collagen XVII: an ex vivo study
Limelight (CB-EVs) safely promotes hair growth.
research Combined Alopecia Areata and Acquired Hypertrichosis Lanuginosa in Celiac Disease- A Rarest Phenomenon
A rare combination of hair loss and excessive fine hair growth was found in celiac disease patients.
