Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Finasteride for female androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride increases hair density in female androgenetic alopecia, but individual results may vary.
research Four days of simulated shift work reduces insulin sensitivity in humans
Working night shifts for four days can lower the body's ability to use insulin, which may increase the risk of type 2 diabetes.
research Treatment of Male Pattern Baldness with Botulinum Toxin: A Pilot Study
