research Relative Influence of Ethanol and Propylene Glycol Cosolvents on Deposition of Minoxidil into the Skin
Ethanol over 50% helps minoxidil absorb better into skin.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth in Vivoa
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Reversible ageusia associated with losartan
Losartan can cause temporary loss of taste.
research Baldness, acne and testicular germ cell tumours
Men with testicular cancer were less likely to experience baldness and severe acne.
research Vitamin E TPGS based transferosomes augmented TAT as a promising delivery system for improved transdermal delivery of raloxifene
The new delivery system improved raloxifene's skin absorption and effectiveness against cancer cells.
research Phosphatidylinositol‐specific phospholipase C2 functions in auxin‐modulated root development
A protein called PLC2 is important for the growth and development of plant roots influenced by auxin.
research High Auxin and High Phosphate Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana
High levels of auxin increase root hair growth by activating RSL2 and producing ROS, while high phosphate levels hinder growth by repressing RSL2.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Iontophoresis of minoxidil sulphate loaded microparticles, a strategy for follicular drug targeting?
Iontophoresis improves minoxidil delivery to hair follicles for hair loss treatment.
research Therapeutic applications and pharmacoeconomics of microneedle technology
Microneedle technology is beneficial for drug delivery and could make vaccinations cheaper and more accessible.
research Advances in male hormone substitution therapy
New treatments for low male hormones improved sexual function and mood but had unclear risks, especially for older men.
research Contraceptive use in acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research The TOR–Auxin Connection Upstream of Root Hair Growth
High energy boosts root hair growth in plants, while low energy stops it.
research Recent Advances in the Chemistry and Pharmacological Activity of New Steroidal Antiandrogens and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New compounds show promise for treating hair loss, enlarged prostate, and prostate cancer, with some being more effective and having different side effects than current treatments.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Passive and Iontophoretic Delivery of Three Diclofenac Salts across Various Skin Types.
Diclofenac salt delivery through skin varies based on the salt's counterions.
research Phospholipid–polymer hybrid nanoparticle-mediated transfollicular delivery of quercetin: prospective implement for the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Quercetin-loaded nanoparticles can penetrate skin, minimize hair loss, and promote hair regrowth, showing slightly better results than a marketed product.
research New ethanol and propylene glycol free gel formulations containing a minoxidil-methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex as promising tools for alopecia treatment
New gel formulas without ethanol and propylene glycol, containing a minoxidil-methyl-β-cyclodextrin complex, have been created for treating hair loss.
research Elevated fasting insulin is associated with cardiovascular and metabolic risk in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
High fasting insulin levels in women with PCOS are linked to a higher risk of heart and metabolic problems.
research Monoolein-alginate beads as a platform to promote adenosine cutaneous localization and wound healing
Monoolein-alginate beads help heal wounds by controlling moisture and effectively delivering adenosine to the skin.
research Short-term responses of soybean roots to individual and combinatorial effects of elevated [CO2] and water deficit
Elevated CO2 can lessen the negative impact of water shortage on soybean roots and affects specific genes.
research Association of polycystic ovary syndrome and Graves′ disease: Is autoimmunity the link between the two diseases
The document suggests that there might be an autoimmune link between polycystic ovary syndrome and Graves' disease.
research Use of metformin in pediatric age
Metformin helps manage diabetes, PCOS, and weight in kids but needs more research for long-term safety.
