May 2017 in “InTech eBooks” 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.

August 2015 in “The FASEB Journal” Blocking the Wnt/β‐catenin pathway can speed up wound healing, reduce scarring, and improve cartilage repair.
11 citations,
January 2000 in “Journal of Cutaneous Pathology” Short telomeres contribute to aging and cancer, and while telomerase can delay aging, it may also promote cancer.
53 citations,
March 2014 in “Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine” The document explains different types of hair loss, their causes, and treatments, and suggests future research areas.
68 citations,

25 citations,
May 2014 in “Facial Plastic Surgery” PRFM may help treat hair loss, especially in mild cases.
1 citations,
November 2011 in “British journal of pharmacology” Enzymes are classified into six types and are essential for many biological processes, with only a few targeted by drugs.
32 citations,
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” STAT5 activation is crucial for starting the hair growth phase.
