research Vertex balding, plasma insulin-like growth factor 1, and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3
Men with balding at age 45 had higher IGF-1 and lower IGFBP-3, suggesting these factors might be important in male pattern baldness.
research Gastrointestinal polyposis with protein-losing enteropathy, abnormal skin pigmentation and loss of hair and nails (Cronkhite-Canada syndrome)
Cronkhite-Canada Syndrome often leads to death within 6-18 months.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Regeneration of Chronic Wounds with Allogeneic Platelet Gel versus Hydrogel Treatment: a Prospective Study
Allogeneic platelet gel heals chronic wounds better than hydrogel.
research The topography of fibrous scaffolds modulates the paracrine function of Ad-MSCs in the regeneration of skin tissues
The shape of fibrous scaffolds can improve how stem cells help heal skin.
research Analysis of quantitative changes in hair growth during treatment with chemotherapy or tamoxifen in patients with breast cancer: a cohort study
Chemotherapy causes hair loss starting soon after treatment begins and recovers about 3 months after ending, while tamoxifen does not significantly affect hair growth.
research Hormone therapy in acne
Hormonal treatment is effective for women with acne not helped by usual treatments, especially if they have hormonal imbalances.
research Enhancement of percutaneous absorption of Finasteride by cosolvents, cosurfactant and surfactants
Transcutol P best increases Finasteride absorption for hair loss treatment.
research Androgen receptors are only present in mesenchyme-derived dermal papilla cells of red deer (Cervus elaphus) neck follicles when raised androgens induce a mane in the breeding season
Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.
research Gonadotropin releasing hormone agonist (nafarelin) test to differentiate gonadotropin deficiency from constitutionally delayed puberty in teen-age boys--a clinical research center study.
The nafarelin test can reliably distinguish between gonadotropin deficiency and delayed puberty in teenage boys.
research Intermittent Low-Dose Finasteride Administration Is Effective for Treatment of Hirsutism in Adolescent Girls: A Pilot Study
Low-dose finasteride reduces excessive hair growth in teenage girls safely and affordably.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL causes hair loss in women due to genetics and hormones; minoxidil and anti-androgens are treatments, and early intervention is advised.
research A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Low Dose Flutamide, Finasteride, Ketoconazole, and Cyproterone Acetate-Estrogen Regimens in the Treatment of Hirsutism
All treatments reduce hair growth; low dose flutamide most effective with fewer side effects.
research Consensus on the use of oral isotretinoin in dermatology - Brazilian Society of Dermatology
The Brazilian Society of Dermatology agrees that oral isotretinoin is effective for acne and other skin conditions, and it's safe when monitored, but more research is needed on dosing and duration.
research Human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells engineered to overexpress growth factors accelerate outcomes in hair growth
Modified stem cells from umbilical cord blood can make hair grow faster.
research Metabolic syndrome in Greek women with polycystic ovary syndrome: prevalence, characteristics and associations with body mass index. A prospective controlled study
Greek women with PCOS have a higher risk of metabolic syndrome and are more likely to be overweight compared to healthy controls.
research Cronkhite-Canada syndrome: Report of an unusual case
The report described a unique case of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome with unusual polyps and an association with multiple myeloma.
research Decreased lipin 1β expression in visceral adipose tissue is associated with insulin resistance in polycystic ovary syndrome
Lower lipin 1β in belly fat is linked to insulin resistance in people with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Insights into the regeneration of skin from Acomys , the spiny mouse
The spiny mouse can regenerate its skin without scarring, which could help us learn how to heal human skin better.
research Insulin sensitivity, androgens and isotretinoin therapy in women with severe acne
Isotretinoin improves severe acne without changing androgen or insulin levels but may increase body weight and triglycerides.
research Skin toxicity of anti‐cancer therapy
Anti-cancer treatments can cause reversible hair loss, skin sensitivity, pigmentation changes, nail damage, and skin reactions, with a need for more research on managing these side effects.
research Spontaneous improvement of Cronkhite-Canada syndrome in a postpartum female
A young woman's Cronkhite-Canada syndrome improved on its own after she gave birth.
research Dermatological problems of the puberty
Puberty often causes skin issues like acne and excessive sweating, and treatments require patience as results may vary.
research Vitamin D increases expression of cathelicidin in cultured sebocytes
Vitamin D boosts a specific protein in skin cells linked to hair follicles.
research Expression of 11β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase type 1 in visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissues of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome is associated with adiposity
Increased HSD11B1 enzyme expression is linked to higher body fat and insulin resistance.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
