research The Endocrine System and Hair Growth in the Rat
Male rats grow hair faster than females, and certain hormones can slow or slightly increase hair growth, but not significantly beyond natural rates.
research Diseases That Affect the Pinna
The document describes skin diseases affecting the outer ear in dogs and cats, their spread to other body parts, and treatment options.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Genetic Fate Mapping Using Site-Specific Recombinases
The document concludes that careful design of genetic fate mapping experiments is crucial for accurate cell lineage tracing in mice.
research Isolation and Characterization of Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Scientists found ways to identify and collect skin stem cells, which vary by skin area and are delicate.
research Hair Transplantation Surgery
Hair transplantation is beneficial if the right patients are chosen and the procedure is done carefully.
research Reversible Activation of c-Myc in Skin
Activating c-Myc in skin causes rapid cell growth and changes, but these effects are reversible.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Clinical Aspects
The document says that understanding the causes of PCOS is important for treatment, especially in distinguishing the syndrome from just having cystic ovaries, and that losing weight is key for obese women with PCOS.
research MOF-Mediated Histone H4 Lysine 16 Acetylation Governs Mitochondrial and Ciliary Functions by Controlling Gene Promoters
MOF controls skin development by regulating genes for mitochondria and cilia.
research Lack of a Gonadal or Adrenal Androgenic Mechanism for the Hypertrichosis Produced by Diazoxide, Phenytoin, and Minoxidil
These drugs cause hair growth without affecting testosterone or adrenal hormones.
research The Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin-Minoxidil Inclusion Complex Improves the Cardiovascular and Proliferative Adverse Effects of Minoxidil in Male Rats: Implications in the Treatment of Alopecia
A new gel form of minoxidil is equally effective for hair growth and safer for the heart and other organs than the traditional solution.
research Recent Advances in Cellulose Nanocrystals-Based Sensors: A Review
Cellulose nanocrystals are promising for making effective, sustainable sensors for various uses.
research Bioavailability of Albumin-Bound Testosterone
Spironolactone treatment increases the amount of testosterone available in the body.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Decreased Androgen Receptor Gene Methylation in Premature Pubarche: A Novel Pathogenetic Mechanism?
Reduced AR gene methylation may cause early pubic hair growth in girls.
research Skin Aging as a Mechanical Phenomenon: The Main Weak Links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
research Estrogen-Dependent Development of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Biotransformation of Finasteride by Ocimum Sanctum L., and Tyrosinase Inhibitory Activity of Transformed Metabolites: Experimental and Computational Insights
Fermentation of Finasteride with Ocimum sanctum L. creates new metabolite that inhibits tyrosinase.
research Main Plenary Sessions: Summaries of Papers
UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.
research Effects of Minoxidil on Hemodynamics in Patients with Congestive Heart Failure
Minoxidil improves blood flow in heart failure patients.
research Changing the Shape of Hair with Keratin Peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Electrophysiological Mechanisms of Minoxidil Sulfate-Induced Vasodilation of Rabbit Portal Vein
The study explains how minoxidil sulfate causes vasodilation in rabbits by opening potassium channels and inhibiting calcium channels.
research A Single-Scar Technique for Donor Harvesting in Hair Transplantation Surgery
A new hair transplant method creates one appealing scar, uses donor hair better, and speeds up surgery.
research In Vivo Reprogramming of Wound-Resident Cells Generates Skin with Hair
Scientists can now create skin with hair by reprogramming cells in wounds.
research Free Skin Grafts in Dogs: A Review
Skin grafts are a common, minimally invasive way to close wounds in dogs, but better methods are still being sought.
