research Research Snippets from the British Journal of Dermatology: Studies on Hair Growth and Skin Conditions
New hair regrowth model proposed, imiquimod found to kill skin cancer cells, T-cadherin loss linked to invasive skin cancer, no clear gene link to skin cancer after transplant, and study on children's hair loss shows male dominance and genetic ties.
research Big Head? Bald Head! Skull Expansion: Alternative Model for the Primary Mechanism of Androgenetic Alopecia
The paper suggests that hair loss might be caused by skull growth, not just DHT's effect on hair follicles, and calls for more research.
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 An Update on Alopecia and Its Association With Thyroid Autoimmune Diseases
People with alopecia have a higher risk of thyroid cancer.
