The 2004 hair research meeting presented new findings on hair cell differentiation, genetic factors in hair loss, hair pigmentation, and potential targeted therapies.

Finasteride helps treat prostate issues and may prevent prostate cancer in high-risk men.

Testosterone increases hair follicle cell growth when beard or axillary skin cells are present together.

Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.

Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.

Hair sensitivity to androgens is partly controlled by specific enzyme expressions in different hair areas.

Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.

Researchers found four natural compounds that can change DHT levels in prostate cancer cells.

TGF-β1 from dermal papilla cells suppresses hair growth, and targeting it may help treat androgenetic alopecia.

Germacrene analogs, especially 8-Hydroxy germacrene B, are more effective than germacrone at blocking a hormone-related enzyme and could help treat hair loss.

Blocking testosterone speeds up wound healing in males.

Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.

Blocking testosterone speeds up wound healing in males.

Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.

Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.

Low androgen levels might delay prostate cancer but could lead to more aggressive, therapy-resistant cancers.

Testosterone affects hair follicles differently across body sites, with beard hair follicles showing more activity of a specific enzyme and presence of androgen receptors compared to scalp hair.

The document suggests that male hormones likely affect hair growth and baldness, and future treatments might involve stem cells and androgen-independent cells.

Saw palmetto supplements may reduce prostate cancer cell growth without being toxic.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

The patient's high testosterone was reduced by a medication that suppresses gonadotropin.

Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.

High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.

Free fatty acids may increase androgen production, potentially contributing to polycystic ovary syndrome.

Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.

Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.

Exposure to fatty acids significantly increased androgen levels in female dogs, suggesting a link to conditions like insulin resistance and PCOS.

The new compounds moderately block a specific enzyme and strongly counteract a male hormone, suggesting potential for treating certain male-related health conditions.

Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.

The exact cause of increased 5α-reductase activity leading to hirsutism in women is still unknown.
