research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Melatonin and the hair follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: a retrospective clinical review of 62 patients with treatment outcome and long-term follow-up
The treatment helped reduce symptoms and stabilize the hairline in most patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, but hair regrowth was limited.
research Growth factors and cytokines in hair follicle development and cycling: recent insights from animal models and the potentials for clinical therapy
Growth factors and cytokines are important for hair growth and could potentially treat hair loss, but more research is needed to overcome challenges before they can be used in treatments.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: A retrospective review of 19 patients seen at Duke University
Dutasteride may help stabilize Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Hair follicles contribute significantly to penetration through human skin only at times soon after application as a solvent deposited solid in man
Hair follicles greatly increase caffeine absorption through the skin shortly after it's applied.
research Skin expression of mammalian target of rapamycin and forkhead box transcription factor O1, and serum insulin‐like growth factor‐1 in patients with acne vulgaris and their relationship with diet
Eating a high-glycemic diet may worsen acne by increasing certain protein levels and expressions in the skin.
research Effect of 1 mg/day finasteride on concentrations of serum prostate-specific antigen in men with androgenic alopecia: a randomised controlled trial
Taking 1 mg/day finasteride for hair loss significantly lowers PSA levels in men, which may affect prostate cancer screening.
research Autologous Cellular Method Using Micrografts of Human Adipose Tissue Derived Follicle Stem Cells in Androgenic Alopecia
Using human fat tissue derived stem cells in micrografts can safely and effectively increase hair density in people with hair loss.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL is a common, age-related, genetic hair loss with unclear causes and limited treatment options.
research Acne
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
research Folliculitis decalvans: a multicentre review of 82 patients
Early onset and pustules indicate severe hair follicle inflammation, and while antibiotics help, the condition often worsens after treatment stops.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research The clinical evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive hair growth in women often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome, and identifying the cause is important for managing associated health risks.
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 DRUG‐ASSOCIATED ALOPECIA
Some drugs can cause hair loss, and stopping these drugs often leads to hair regrowth.
research Design and In Vitro Evaluation of Finasteride-Loaded Liquid Crystalline Nanoparticles for Topical Delivery
LCN may improve finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment.
research Persistent erectile dysfunction in men exposed to the 5α-reductase inhibitors, finasteride, or dutasteride
Using finasteride or dutasteride may cause long-lasting erectile dysfunction.
research Hair follicles, their disorders and their opportunities
Hair follicles offer promising targets for delivering drugs to treat hair and skin conditions.
research Recent studies on the delivery of hydrophilic drugs in nanoparticulate systems
Nanoparticulate systems improve drug delivery by controlling release, protecting drugs, changing absorption and distribution, and concentrating drugs in targeted areas.
research Ultrasonographic and laboratory markers of metabolic and cardiovascular disease risk in obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Obese women with PCOS are more likely to have fatty liver disease.
research Hair Growth: Focus on Herbal Therapeutic Agent
Some plants may help with hair growth and have fewer side effects than synthetic drugs, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research A Practical Approach to the Diagnosis and Management of Hair Loss in Children and Adolescents
Early and personalized treatment for hair loss in young people is crucial to prevent permanent damage and should include psychological support.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Side effects of common acne treatments
Common acne treatments can cause various side effects, like skin irritation and more serious issues, but combination therapies are often more effective and better tolerated.
research Guidelines for the management of androgenetic alopecia (2010)
Use minoxidil for hair loss treatment, and finasteride for men.
research The hair cycle and its regulation
Hormones, nutrition, and seasonal changes regulate hair growth cycles, with androgens extending growth phases and factors like aging and malnutrition affecting hair loss and thinning.
research Studying SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and therapeutic responses with complex organoids
Organoids can help study COVID-19 and develop treatments, but face challenges like instability and limited renewal.
