30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Structural change of keratin protein in human hair by permanent waving treatment
Permanent waving damages hair by disrupting its keratin structure.
research Limits of Visual Detection for Finasteride Polymorphs in Prepared Binary Mixtures: Analysis by X‐ray Powder Diffraction
research Synthesis and in Vitro Evaluation of 4-Substituted N-(1,1-Dimethylethyl)-3-oxo-4-androstene-17.beta.-carboxamides as 5.alpha.-Reductase Inhibitors and Antiandrogens
The new compounds moderately block a specific enzyme and strongly counteract a male hormone, suggesting potential for treating certain male-related health conditions.
research Experimental, molecular docking investigations and bioavailability study on the inclusion complexes of finasteride and cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve finasteride's solubility and bioavailability for hair loss treatment.
research Porosity at Different Structural Levels in Human and Yak Belly Hair and Its Effect on Hair Dyeing
Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.
research Structural studies of two solid steroid compounds
Androsterone and finasteride have different solid forms, with new findings correcting previous errors and identifying a new form.
research Structural & functional studies of L-PGDS and SMPDL3A enzymes in lipid signaling family
L-PGDS has specific binding sites for its functions and could help in drug delivery system design.
research Straight hair associated with interferon-alfa plus ribavirin in hepatitis C infection
ALA-PDT is effective and safe for chronic X-ray dermatitis, providing complete or partial remission.
research A Multi-Technique Approach to the Study of Structural Stability and Desolvation of Two Unusual Channel Hydrate Solvates of Finasteride
Desolvation of finasteride depends on environment and technique.
research Production and characterization of human hair keratin bioplastic films with novel plasticizers
Human hair was used to make biodegradable plastic films that could be useful for packaging and disposable products.
research The Roles of EDA2R in Ageing and Disease
EDA2R is a key gene linked to ageing and diseases, and targeting it may help treat conditions like hair loss and chronic diseases.
research Dermatologic therapy: December 1987 to December 1988
New skin treatments in 1987-1988 showed effectiveness for various conditions, but some had side effects or risks.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Interferon in the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma
Interferon, especially alfa interferon, is an effective treatment for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma with manageable side effects.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Structural and dynamic insights into substrate binding and catalysis of human lipocalin prostaglandin D synthase
The research explains how a human enzyme binds and processes its substrate, which could relate to its role in biological functions and hair loss.
research Development of a Doxazosin and Finasteride Transdermal System for Combination Therapy of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Researchers created a skin patch that delivers two drugs for treating enlarged prostate, which may improve patient use and dosage control.
research Estuarine bed-sediment-quality data collected in New Jersey and New York after Hurricane Sandy, 2013
Hurricane Sandy increased contamination in estuarine sediments in New Jersey and New York.
research Evolution of hard proteins in the sauropsid integument in relation to the cornification of skin derivatives in amniotes
Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.
research Regulation and dysregulation of hair regeneration: aiming for clinical application
Understanding hair growth involves complex factors, and more research is needed to improve treatments for hair loss conditions.
research Oral cyclosporin does not arrest progression of androgenetic alopecia
Cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgen
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
research Damage of hair follicle stem cells and alteration of keratin expression in external radiation-induced acute alopecia
Radiation damages hair stem cells and changes keratin expression, with Krt5 as a potential marker for radiation effects.
research Thermal Induced Changes in Cuticle and Cortex to Chemically Treated Hair
Heat worsens damage in chemically treated hair, especially bleached and straightened hair.
research Analysis of the finasteride treatment and its withdrawal in the rat hypothalamus and hippocampus at whole-transcriptome level
Finasteride treatment in rats changed the expression of genes related to psychiatric and neurological functions, and these changes persisted after stopping the drug.
research Interventions for female pattern hair loss
Topical minoxidil helps treat female pattern hair loss, but more research needed for other treatments.
research Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
Feather patterns in birds are shaped by signaling interactions and cell movements, with EDA/EDAR crucial for pattern formation.
research Cryptic Patterning of Avian Skin Confers a Developmental Facility for Loss of Neck Feathering
Birds can lose neck feathers due to a genetic change that increases a gene's activity, helping them adapt to heat.
