The Liver Monooxygenase System in Patients with Alopecia

research FC054 The liver monoxygenase system in patients with alopecia

September 1997 in “JEADV. Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology/Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology”

Alopecia patients have a less active liver monoxygenase system, which can be treated with photochemotherapy and system inducers.

research FC056 The ideal catagen of the hair

September 1997 in “JEADV. Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology/Journal of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology”

Blocking IL-1 could help treat some hair loss conditions; alopecia affects liver detox systems; spironolactone is better than finasteride for female hair growth; focusing on the catagen hair phase could lead to new alopecia treatments.

research Hydroxylation of dehydroepiandrosterone in human scalp hair folhcles

11 citations , June 1979 in “British Journal of Dermatology”

This study found that the dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver monooxygenase system, sharing characteristics such as inhibition by carbon monoxide and dependency on NADPH.

research Bound on the Risk for M-SVMs

January 2002 in “HAL (Le Centre pour la Communication Scientifique Directe)”

In this study, researchers characterized a dehydroepiandrosterone hydroxylating enzyme system in hair follicles similar to the liver monooxygenase system, noting its inhibition by carbon monoxide and its dependence on NADPH.
