research Androgenetic Alopecia and Insulin Resistance: Are They Truly Associated?
No true link between AGA and insulin resistance, but coexistence may worsen AGA.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma for Hair Restoration
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP), a substance from a patient's own blood, can stimulate hair regrowth in people with Androgenetic Alopecia (AGA) who haven't had success with other treatments, but more research is needed to optimize its use.
research Investigating the Safety and Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma Treatment for Female Androgenetic Alopecia: Review of the Literature
PRP treatment may promote hair growth and improve hair density in women with AGA, but more research is needed.
research The 'Bald' Phenotype (Androgenetic Alopecia) Is Caused by the High Glycemic, High Cholesterol, and Low Mineral 'Western Diet'
Western diet may cause male pattern baldness; low glycemic diet with magnesium could help.
research Gender-Specific Risk Factors for Androgenetic Alopecia in the Korean General Population: Associations with Medical Comorbidities and General Health Behaviors
AGA risk factors include age, smoking, hypertension for men, and age, dyslipidemia for women; lifestyle changes may help prevention.

research The Potential of Androgenic Alopecia Management from Plant Derivatives
Plant extracts like Avicennia marina, Boehmeria nipononivea, and Camellia sinensis could potentially treat hair loss with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.
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 The Women's Hair Growth Questionnaire: Development and Validation of a Patient-Reported Measure for Treatment Efficacy in Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA patients have higher rates of metabolic syndrome and carotid atheromatosis, suggesting early screening and prevention is important.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in COVID-19: Comparison to Age-Matched Epidemiologic Studies and Hospital Outcomes With or Without the Gabrin Sign
AGA linked to worse COVID-19 outcomes in men.
research The Natural History of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA affects many, progresses differently, and early treatment is crucial.
research Dickkopf-1 Expression in Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata in Male Patients
DKK-1 gene linked to hair loss in AGA and AA patients; more research needed for potential therapy.
research Interaction Between Estrogens and Androgen Receptor Genes Microsatellites, Prostate-Specific Antigen, and Androgen Receptor Expressions in Breast Cancer
Certain gene patterns in breast cancer are linked to how active hormone receptors are and could affect patient survival.
research Clinical Efficacy of Catgut Embedment Combined with Moxibustion and Bloodletting in the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Traditional Chinese medicine techniques like catgut embedment, moxibustion, and bloodletting showed better results for treating hair loss than the drug finasteride.
research Establishment and Characterization of Human Sebocytic Progenitor Cells That Can Differentiate Into Functional Sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis, and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research News in Brief
Researchers found potential new targets for treating melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers, and identified a possible cause and treatment for male pattern baldness and eczema.
research Low-Level Laser Therapy and Hair Regrowth: An Evidence-Based Review

research Monitoring Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia With Trichoscopy
Chemotherapy caused hair loss with specific patterns, but most patients had hair regrowth after treatment, while some had lasting hair loss.
research Trichoscopic Findings of Hair Loss in Koreans
The study found specific hair and scalp patterns for different types of hair loss in Koreans, noting racial differences affect diagnosis.
research Advanced Medical Therapies in the Management of Non-Scarring Alopecia: Areata and Androgenic Alopecia
Advanced therapies like gene, cell, and tissue engineering show promise for hair regrowth in alopecia, but their safety and effectiveness need more verification.
research Anti-Androgenic Curcumin Analogues as Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors
Some curcumin-like compounds can effectively and safely block the enzyme linked to hair loss and other conditions related to male hormones.
research Androgenetic, Diffuse, and Senescent Alopecia in Men: Practical Evaluation and Management
