research Transcriptome Profiling of Human Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells in Response to Porphyra-334 Treatment by RNA-Seq
Porphyra-334 may help reduce wrinkles and promote hair growth.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Study of Gene Expression Alteration in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Evidence of Predominant Molecular Signaling Pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Stem Cells and Aberrant Signaling of Molecular Systems in Skin Aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Investigations on Kaempferol, Quercetin, and Other Flavonoids in Aquatic Plants of Iraqi Marshlands
Flavonoids in Iraqi marshland plants have potential health benefits like antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.
research Sebaceous Immunobiology: Skin Homeostasis, Innate Immunity Coordination, Inflammatory Response, and Disease Associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research A Comprehensive Review of Biochemical Factors in Herbs and Their Constituent Compounds in Experimental Studies on Alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Medications and Hair Transplantation
Minoxidil and finasteride combined can effectively treat hair loss.
research Relating Neurosteroid Modulation of Inhibitory Neurotransmission to Behavior
