research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Special Diagnostic and Therapeutic Considerations for Children
Early diagnosis and treatment of PCOS in young people is important to prevent long-term health problems.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Techniques for Rejuvenation of the Neck Platysma
Direct excision techniques can rejuvenate the neck but may not enhance the jawline and could cause neck-face disharmony if done incorrectly.
research Hair Loss in Autoimmune Cutaneous Bullous Disorders
Hair loss in autoimmune blistering skin diseases varies and may regrow with disease control.
research Doxorubicin-induced hair loss in the Angora rabbit: a study of treatments to protect against the hair loss

research Anti-Zika Activity of a Library of Synthetic Carbohydrate Receptors
Some synthetic carbohydrate receptors, especially compounds 3 and 15, show strong potential for treating Zika virus.
research Rebound effect associated with JAK inhibitor use in the treatment of alopecia areata
Stopping JAK inhibitor treatment for hair loss can lead to worse hair loss than before the treatment.
research Mesothelial Stem Cells and Stromal Vascular Fraction for Skin Rejuvenation
Adipose-derived stem cells show potential for skin rejuvenation and wound healing but require more research to overcome challenges and ensure safety.
research Demethylation of methionine and keratin damage in human hair
Copper and iron cause keratin damage in hair by converting methionine to homocysteine.
