research Estrogens and the skin
Estrogen loss during menopause worsens skin health, but hormone replacement therapy may improve it, though more research is needed.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Oxidative stress in ageing of hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Effect of Testosterone Supplementation With and Without a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor on Fat-Free Mass in Men With Suppressed Testosterone Production
Testosterone's muscle-building effects do not require its conversion to DHT.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Chronic inflammatory diseases are stimulated by current lifestyle: how diet, stress levels and medication prevent our body from recovering
Modern lifestyles, including poor diet, stress, and long-term use of certain medications, hinder the body's ability to heal from inflammation, leading to chronic diseases.
research Androgenetic alopecia and cardiovascular risk factors in men and women: A comparative study
Hair loss linked to higher heart disease risk in both men and women.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Turing patterns in development: what about the horse part?
Turing patterns are now recognized as important in developmental biology.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain (LBD) of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor (hGR) Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus of hGR LBD in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Green tea: Health benefits
Green tea may help with health issues like cancer, heart disease, and weight loss due to its high catechin content.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research PAK4 signaling in health and disease: defining the PAK4–CREB axis
PAK4 is crucial in cancer progression, brain development, and could be a therapeutic target, especially through the PAK4-CREB axis.
research Insulin sensitiser agents alone and in co-treatment with r-FSH for ovulation induction in PCOS women
Myo-inositol may be more effective than metformin for inducing ovulation in women with PCOS.
research MENSTRUAL DISORDERS IN ADOLESCENTS
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research What do we know about phytotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
Some plant-based treatments can help with benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Stem cell quiescence acts as a tumour suppressor in squamous tumours
Inactive hair follicle stem cells help prevent skin cancer.
research Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
