Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.
research Ornithine decarboxylase is upregulated by the androgen receptor in skeletal muscle and regulates myoblast proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research Case Report: Diffuse Hypertrichosis in the Course of Hepatitis C Treatment by IFN-α and Ribavirin
A man developed excessive hair growth after treatment with interferon-alpha and ribavirin for hepatitis C.
research Bad Hair Day: Testosterone and Wnts
Testosterone can both promote hair growth and cause baldness by affecting hair growth signals.

research Editor’s picks January 2021
PrEP doesn't increase STI risk in high-risk men, anti-androgen drugs may lower ICU admission for male COVID-19 patients, a 3-point injection is better for crow's feet, and the 'Geriatric-8' tool could help assess frailty in older skin cancer patients.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research The Biological Actions of Dehydroepiandrosterone Involves Multiple Receptors
DHEA affects multiple receptors and may help with metabolic issues, but its safety and effectiveness in humans are unclear.
research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Baiting Proteins with C60
C60 fullerenes can alter protein function and may help develop new disease inhibitors.
research Visualising Androgen Receptor Activity in Male and Female Mice
Androgen receptors are active in many tissues of both male and female mice, not just reproductive organs.
research Red ginseng monograph
Red ginseng may improve immunity, fatigue, memory, blood circulation, and menopausal symptoms, and is generally safe to consume.
research CXCR3 Blockade Inhibits T Cell Migration into the Skin and Prevents Development of Alopecia Areata
Blocking the CXCR3 receptor reduces T cell accumulation in the skin and prevents hair loss in mice.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Dihydrotestosterone Stimulates 5a-Reductase Activity in Pubic Skin Fibroblasts*
Dihydrotestosterone increases the activity of an enzyme in pubic skin cells that converts testosterone to dihydrotestosterone.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research The L412F variant of Toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3) is associated with cutaneous candidiasis, increased susceptibility to cytomegalovirus, and autoimmunity
The L412F variant of TLR3 is linked to skin infections, more viral infections, and autoimmune issues.
research Modulation of glucocorticoid action and the treatment of type-2 diabetes
Targeting glucocorticoid action might help treat type-2 diabetes, but human trials are needed.
research The prostamide‐related glaucoma therapy, bimatoprost, offers a novel approach for treating scalp alopecias
Bimatoprost, a glaucoma medication, may also help treat hair loss.
research Anti-androgenic effect of sesquiterpenes isolated from the rhizomes of Curcuma aeruginosa Roxb.
Germacrone from Curcuma aeruginosa may help treat conditions related to male hormones by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Studying the genetic predisposing factors in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
