Finasteride slowly binds to 5-alpha-reductase, affecting enzyme stability and inhibitor potency.
research Herbal Extracts Induce Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation of Human Hair Follicles
Herbal extracts may help hair grow and could be an alternative to synthetic hair loss treatments.
research A Hypothetical Pathogenesis Model for Androgenic Alopecia: Clarifying the Dihydrotestosterone Paradox and Rate-Limiting Recovery Factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research 5alpha-Reductase Inhibitors Dampen L-DOPA-Induced Dyskinesia via Normalization of Dopamine D1-Receptor Signaling Pathway and D1-D3 Receptor Interaction
Finasteride and dutasteride reduce unwanted movements from Parkinson's disease treatment by normalizing certain brain signals.
research Androgen Binding Profiles of Two Distinct Nuclear Androgen Receptors in Atlantic Croaker (Micropogonias Undulatus)
Different types of androgens bind differently to two receptors, AR1 and AR2, in Atlantic croaker's brain and ovarian tissues, suggesting these receptors may control different androgen actions in fish.
research Vibrational Spectroscopic Investigation and Molecular Structure of a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor: Finasteride
The PW91 method is best for calculating the basic physical and chemical properties of Finasteride, a drug used for prostate issues and hair loss.
research Pharmacokinetic Parameters and Mechanisms of Inhibition of Rat Type 1 and 2 Steroid 5α-Reductases: Determinants for Different In Vivo Activities of GI198745 and Finasteride in the Rat
GI198745 is more potent and longer-lasting than finasteride, potentially better for treating hair loss.
research Male-Pattern Baldness, Common Latent Viruses, and Microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
research Alopecia in Women Submitted to Childhood X-Ray Epilation for Tinea Capitis Treatment
Women treated with X-ray for scalp fungus as children had a higher chance of hair loss, especially with higher radiation doses and severe fungus infections.
research Hair Transplantation in Migraine Headache Patients
Some migraine sufferers had no more headaches after getting a hair transplant.
research Chinese SLE Treatment and Research Group (CSTAR) Registry 2009–2019: Major Clinical Characteristics of Chinese Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Chinese patients with systemic lupus erythematosus commonly experience oral ulcers, arthritis, alopecia, skin rash, and nephritis.
research Effects of Dihydrotestosterone on Osteoblast Activity in Curdlan-Administered SKG Mice and Osteoprogenitor Cells in Patients with Ankylosing Spondylitis
DHT inhibition may increase spinal bone growth in ankylosing spondylitis.
research Iontophoresis on Minoxidil Sulphate-Loaded Chitosan Nanoparticles Accelerates Drug Release, Decreasing Their Targeting Effect to Hair Follicles
Using iontophoresis on minoxidil sulphate-loaded chitosan nanoparticles increases drug release but reduces its targeting to hair follicles.
research Rodent Models in Placental Research: Implications for Fetal Origins of Adult Disease
Using rodents for research shows that health problems in the womb can cause diseases later in life.
research A Model System for Long-Term Serum-Free Suspension Organ Culture of Human Fetal Tissues: Experiments on Digits and Skin from Multiple Body Regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.
research Role of Direct Immunofluorescence on Outer Root Sheath of Hair Follicle in Monitoring Disease Activity of Pemphigus Vulgaris
Testing hair roots with a special dye is a simple, non-invasive way to check disease progress in pemphigus vulgaris patients.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Stress Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inducing Premature Catagen Development and Harmful Perifollicular Inflammatory Events via Neuropeptide Substance P-Dependent Pathways
Stress stops hair growth in mice by causing early hair growth phase end and harmful inflammation through a specific nerve-related pathway.
research Molecular Signaling in Feather Morphogenesis
Feather growth and regeneration involve complex patterns, stem cells, and evolutionary insights.
research Stem Cell-Derived Motor Neurons from Spinal and Bulbar Muscular Atrophy Patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Metabolic and Pathologic Profiles of Human LSS Deficiency Recapitulated in Mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Minimum Structural Requirements for Minoxidil Inhibition of Lysyl Hydroxylase in Cultured Fibroblasts
