research DRUG‐ASSOCIATED ALOPECIA
Some drugs can cause hair loss, and stopping these drugs often leads to hair regrowth.
research Neuroactive steroid levels and psychiatric and andrological features in post-finasteride patients
Post-finasteride patients show changed neuroactive steroid levels, possibly causing erectile dysfunction and depression.
research Effects of the 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride on Serum Levels of Gonadal, Adrenal, and Hypophyseal Hormones and its Clinical Significance: A Prospective Clinical Study
Finasteride reduces hair loss and treats BPH without major hormone changes, but may cause sexual dysfunction.
research Chemical profiling and quantitation of bioactive compounds in Platycladi Cacumen by UPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS and UPLC-DAD
Researchers identified new compounds in Platycladi Cacumen and found variations in its flavonoid content, which could aid in its quality control.
research Iron Plays a Certain Role in Patterned Hair Loss
Iron deficiency may contribute to hair loss.
research Prevalence of Hyperandrogenic States in Late Adolescent and Young Women: Epidemiological Survey on Italian High-School Students
Many young Italian women have hyperandrogenic disorders like PCOS, which are linked to age, body weight, and insulin resistance.
research Micro-segmental hair analysis: detailed procedures and applications in forensic toxicology
Micro-segmental hair analysis helps detect drug use patterns and estimate drug consumption days.
research Combined Oral Contraception and Bicalutamide in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Severe Hirsutism: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial
Birth control pills combined with bicalutamide are more effective at reducing excessive hair growth in women with PCOS than birth control pills alone.
research Predicting hair cortisol levels with hair pigmentation genes: a possible hair pigmentation bias
Darker hair may lead to higher cortisol readings, suggesting a need to adjust for hair color in studies.
research A novel and safe small molecule enhances hair follicle regeneration by facilitating metabolic reprogramming
Small molecule IM boosts hair growth by changing stem cell metabolism.
research Dermal-epidermal interactions—follicle-derived cell populations in the study of hair-growth mechanisms
Dermal-epidermal interactions are crucial for hair growth and maintenance.
research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research A study on the conditioning effects of natural shampoos using the scanning electron microscope*
Natural shampoos made in the lab conditioned hair better than commercial ones with chemicals.
research Evidence that mirex promotes a unique population of epidermal cells that cannot be distinguished by their mutant Ha-ras genotype
Mirex seems to promote a unique group of skin cells different from those affected by another tumor promoter, TPA.
research Proton Affinitive Derivatization for Highly Sensitive Determination of Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Saliva Samples by LC-ESI-MS/MS
Using 5-butylpicolinate esters improves the sensitivity and reliability of detecting testosterone and dihydrotestosterone in saliva.
research Structural characterization of cyclosporin A, C and microbial bio-transformed cyclosporin A analog AM6 using HPLC–ESI–ion trap-mass spectrometry
Researchers developed a method to identify and analyze cyclosporin compounds and their structures effectively.
research Prenatal Androgenization of Ewes as a Model of Hirsutism in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Prenatally androgenized ewes can model increased hair diameter in women with PCOS.
research Hirsutism
Most women with hirsutism have it because of PCOS, and they need long-term treatment including medication and hair removal to improve their condition.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Optimization and validation of spectrophotometric methods for determination of finasteride in dosage and biological forms
The methods accurately measure finasteride in different forms.
research Script as a Factor in Translation
The conclusion is that the type of writing system used can significantly affect the translation of a text.
research Quantitative Analysis of Cashmere and Other Animal Hair Fibers in Textiles Using MALDI-TOF Mass Spectrometry
The new method reliably identifies and measures different animal hair fibers in textiles.
research Workplace Drug Testing Using Hair Samples
Hair testing is a reliable method for detecting workplace drug use when done with proper sample preparation and confirmation.
research The impact of COVID-19 pandemic and lockdown on chronic stress assessed by hair cortisol analysis via LC-MS/MS
Chronic stress increased after lockdown, especially in young adults and females.
research Lower prostate cancer risk in Swedish men with the androgen receptor E213 A-allele
