research Autoantigen Discovery in the Hair Loss Disorder, Alopecia Areata: Implication of Post-Translational Modifications
New protein changes may be involved in the immune attack on hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research Transcriptomic inspection revealed a possible pathway regulating the formation of the high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goat ( Capra hircus )
Scientists found genes linked to the growth of high-quality brush hair in Chinese Haimen goats.
research Gender differences in scalp hair growth rates are maintained but reduced in pattern hair loss compared to controls
Women's hair grows faster and thicker than men's, but hair growth slows for both genders with pattern hair loss.
research Androgenetic alopecia and polymorphism of the androgen receptor gene (SNP rs6152) in patients with benign prostate hyperplasia or prostate cancer
Hair loss gene linked to prostate issues.
research Solid state NMR of isotope labelled murine fur: a powerful tool to study atomic level keratin structure and treatment effects
Solid-state NMR can effectively study keratin structure and treatment effects in fur.
research Diseases that turn African hair silky
Certain diseases like AIDS and lupus can make African hair become silky.
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 Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells

research Therapeutic effect of exosomes derived from hepatocyte-growth-factor-overexpressing adipose mesenchymal stem cells on liver injury
Exosomes from modified stem cells may help treat liver injury.
research Proposed mechanisms of low-level light therapy in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
LLLT helps treat hair loss by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating growth factors.
research An overview of management of drug-induced hair and nail disorders
Cooling the scalp may prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, hair often grows back after treatment, and nail issues usually improve after stopping the drug.
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 Biology of the skin and dermatological disease
Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Discovery of genes and proteins possibly regulating mean wool fibre diameter using cDNA microarray and proteomic approaches
Researchers identified genes and proteins that may influence wool thickness in sheep.
research The psychological and aesthetic impact of age‐related hair changes in females
Hair loss affects women's self-esteem; treatments like minoxidil can help.
research In vivo evaluation of insect wax for hair growth potential
Insect wax, especially its policosanol content, may help hair regrow by changing hair follicle phases and increasing nutrient supply.
research Comparative Gene Expression Profiling of Senescent and Androgenetic Alopecia Using Microarray Analysis
SA linked to mitochondrial issues and oxidative stress, while AGA involves disrupted hair growth genes.
research Norgalanthamine Stimulates Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells via Anagen-Activating Signaling Pathways
Norgalanthamine helps hair cells grow by activating certain pathways related to hair growth.
research Endocrine evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, is often caused by PCOS and can be managed with medication and personalized treatment plans.
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.
research Clinical experience on follicular unit extraction megasession for severe androgenetic alopecia
FUE megasession effectively treats severe hair loss with natural-looking results in one operation.
research Preparation and clinical evaluation of Finastride gel in the treatment of idiopathic Hirsutism
Finasteride gel effectively and safely reduces hair thickness in women with excessive hair growth.
research Frontotemporal dementia with parkinsonism presenting as posterior cortical atrophy
A woman's unique dementia was misdiagnosed, a genetic mutation increases Parkinson's risk with age, and finasteride may help with Tourette syndrome.
