research Cosmetic Concerns Among Men
More men are getting cosmetic procedures, mainly for aging, hair loss, and to keep masculine features, with growing interest in both surgical and noninvasive treatments.
research Platelet-derived growth factor regulates the proliferation and differentiation of human melanocytes in a differentiation-stage-specific manner
PDGF-BB helps young melanocytes grow but stops mature ones from growing, and it makes melanocytes more specialized.
research No evidence for THAP1/DYT6 variants as disease modifiers in DYT1 dystonia
THAP1 gene changes do not affect DYT1 dystonia; finasteride may help reduce tics and OCD in Tourette syndrome.
research Ligand‐independent Regulation of the hairless Promoter by Vitamin D Receptor†
Vitamin D receptor can control the hairless gene linked to hair loss even without vitamin D.
research Treatment of scleromyxoedema with hydroxychloroquine
Hydroxychloroquine helped improve scleromyxoedema in patients, but caused side effects in some.
research Tumor Promotion in Skin: Are Active Oxygen Species Involved?
Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.
research On the correlation between the curvature of the human eyelash and its geometrical features
Eyelash curvature is linked to the thickness of the cuticle layer at the root.
research A disease-causing novel missense mutation in the ST14 gene underlies autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome in a consanguineous family
A new mutation in the ST14 gene causes a rare skin and hair disorder in a specific family.
research The Administration of Flumethasone, by Three Different Routes, its Measurement in the Plasma and Some Effects on Wool Growth in Merino Wethers
Flumethasone causes wool shedding in Merino wethers, with recovery in about 60 days.
research Growth factors IGF-1 and KGF and adipose-derived stem cells promote migration and viability of primary human keratinocytes in an in vitro wound model
IGF-1, KGF, and stem cells help skin cells move and survive, potentially speeding up wound healing.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research Proscar@ (Finasteride) inhibits 5α-reductase activity in the ovaries and testes of Lytechinus variegatus Lamarck (Echinodermata: Echinoidea)
Proscar (finasteride) blocks 5α-reductase in sea urchin ovaries and testes, suggesting potential treatment for androgen-related conditions.
research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health by altering gene expression, affecting DNA, mitochondria, and skin barriers.
research Novel circRNAs from cashmere goats: Discovery, integrated regulatory network, and their putative roles in the regeneration and growth of secondary hair follicles
Certain circular RNAs help cashmere goats grow more hair.
research Experimental and computational approaches for measuring minoxidil solubility in propylene glycol + water mixtures at different temperatures
Minoxidil dissolves better in propylene glycol and water as temperature and propylene glycol amount increase.
research Establishment of an evaluation method to detect drug distribution in hair follicles
Researchers developed a method to measure drugs in hair follicles and found that both water-loving and fat-loving drugs can be detected after being applied to the skin.
research Mutation in 5′ upstream region of GCH I gene causes familial dopa-responsive dystonia
A specific gene mutation is linked to a hereditary form of dystonia that responds well to certain medications.
research Elucidating the anti-aging mechanism of Si Jun Zi Tang by integrating network pharmacology and experimental validation in vivo
Si Jun Zi Tang may slow aging by affecting specific cell signaling pathways.
research Hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR): clinical heterogeneity and long-term efficacious management of eight patients from four unrelated Arab families with a loss of function VDR mutation
Patients with the same genetic mutation for vitamin D-resistant rickets showed different symptoms but all improved with treatment except for hair loss.
research Mechanistic study of decreased skin penetration using a combination of sonophoresis with sodium fluorescein-loaded PEGylated liposomes with D-limonene
Using sonophoresis can make it harder for certain drug-loaded liposomes to get through the skin.
research Cyclohex-1-ene Carboxylic Acids: Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Novel Inhibitors of Human 5α Reductase
Scientists made new substances that can block an enzyme linked to prostate issues and hair loss, with potential for creating a new treatment.
research Analyzing finasteride data
Finasteride slightly improves prostate symptoms but has minimal difference from placebo.
research Discovery of differentially expressed genes in cashmere goat (Capra hircus) hair follicles by RNA sequencing
Researchers found 617 genes that behave differently in cashmere goat hair follicles, which could help understand hair growth.
research Topical Application of Thymidine Dinucleotide to Newborn Mice Reduces and Delays Development of UV-Induced Melanomas
Putting thymidine dinucleotide on newborn mice's skin can delay and reduce skin cancer.
research Ability to cycle despite severe freezing of gait in atypical parkinsonism in Fahr's syndrome
Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in Tourette syndrome patients.
research Encephalitis lethargica due to Epstein–Barr virus infection
Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.
