research Long noncoding RNA and gene expression analysis of melatonin-exposed Liaoning cashmere goat fibroblasts indicating cashmere growth
Melatonin treatment increases a specific RNA in goat cells that boosts cashmere growth.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Hair Loss in Women
Obstetrician/gynecologists can diagnose and manage female hair loss with careful history taking and examination.
research Update on the Genetics of Androgenetic Alopecia, Female Pattern Hair Loss, and Alopecia Areata: Implications for Molecular Diagnostic Testing
Genetic factors affect hair loss, and molecular testing may help predict, diagnose, and treat it.
research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
research Gene profile analysis of colorectal cancer cell lines by cDNA macroarray
Colorectal cancer's ability to spread is due to changes in many genes, not just one.
research Finasteride in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Finasteride reduces hair growth in women with hirsutism and works better with electrolysis.
research Male androgenetic alopecia (Part II)
Finasteride effectively treats male hair loss, increasing length and thickness.
research Novel Systematics of Nomenclature and Classification of Female Functional Androgenization (Including Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Non-Classic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia)
A new system helps better diagnose and treat female androgenization conditions like PCOS.
research Adrenal steroid precursors exert potent androgenic action in the hamster sebaceous glands of flank organs and ears.
Certain adrenal hormones can strongly stimulate oil gland growth in hamster skin, similar to male hormones.
research Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
Keratin injections can promote hair growth by affecting hair-forming cells and tissue development.
research Shedding light on therapeutics in alopecia and their relevance to COVID-19
Some alopecia treatments might help treat COVID-19, but more research is needed.
research Evaluation of loci to predict ear morphology using two SNaPshot assays
Genetic markers can help predict ear shapes for forensic use.
research Wound healing mechanism in Mongolian gerbil skin
Mongolian gerbils heal wounds differently than mice, with unique protein levels and gene expression that affect skin repair.
research Hair Growth Activity of Three Plants of the Polynesian Cosmetopoeia and Their Regulatory Effect on Dermal Papilla Cells
Extracts from three Polynesian plants were found to promote hair growth by affecting cell growth and gene expression related to hair.
research The effects of gamma rays on the regeneration of hair follicles are carried over to later hair cycles
Gamma-ray exposure can cause long-lasting damage to hair follicles, affecting hair structure and color.
research Hair shaft structures in EDAR induced ectodermal dysplasia
The EDAR gene mutation leads to thinner and more deformed hair shafts.
research Hair Whorls in the Dog (Canis familiaris). I. Distribution
Most dogs have hair whorls on their chest and limbs, with shelter dogs and short-haired dogs having more chest whorls.
research What’s New in the Histologic Evaluation of Alopecia and Hair-Related Disorders?
New biopsy techniques and tools improve alopecia diagnosis, and both too much and too little selenium can cause hair loss.
research Coexistence of angiolymphoid hyperplasia with eosinophilia and pulmonary neoplasia
A man with both skin lesions and lung cancer improved quickly with chemotherapy, suggesting the skin condition might be a reaction to immune system injury.
research SNP Markers: Analysis of Genetic Diversity and Identification of Genomic Regions in Pantaneiro Sheep and Texel Sheep Under Natural Selection
Pantaneiro sheep have more genetic diversity than Texel sheep, with potential for future research in Brazilian farming.
research Estimation of renin and D-dimer levels in women with polycystic ovary disease with or without coronavirus infection
Women with PCOS have higher renin and d-dimer levels, especially if they have COVID-19.
research Malassezia Display a Hyphae-like “Spaghetti-and-Meatballs” Configuration in Keratotic Plugs
Malassezia fungi in healthy noses can form a "spaghetti-and-meatballs" structure.
research Effects of gamma rays on the regeneration of murine hair follicles in the natural hair cycle
Gamma rays did not change hair follicle density but increased white and hypopigmented hairs in mice.
research Surprisingly low infertility rate in married type 2 diabetic women: A rather curious paradox to the current opinion of insulin resistance as the joint pathogenesis of poly cystic ovary syndrome and type 2 diabetes mellitus
Married women with type 2 diabetes had a surprisingly low infertility rate, suggesting type 2 diabetes and PCOS may be different conditions.
research Follicular unit transplantation for the treatment of secondary cicatricial alopecia
