research Early Dengue Virus Infection in Human Skin: A Cycle of Inflammation and Infectivity
Chicken feather gene mutation helps understand human hair disorders.
research Androgens and Alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research Connarus Semidecandrus Jack Exerts Anti-Alopecia Effects by Targeting 5α-Reductase Activity and an Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway
Connarus semidecandrus Jack extract promotes hair growth and thickness, reduces prostate cancer cell growth, and could potentially be used as a treatment for hair loss.
research Disorders of the Pilosebaceous Unit: Hirsutism and Androgenic Alopecia
Excessive androgens in women with polycystic ovary syndrome can lead to excessive hair growth and hair loss, but this might not fully explain these conditions.
research Updates on Hirsutism: A Narrative Review
The review suggests a comprehensive approach to treat hirsutism, focusing on hair removal, medication, and managing emotional effects.
research Obesity and Female Androgenic Alopecia: A Cause and an Effect?
Obesity may contribute to female hair loss by increasing male hormone levels that affect hair follicles.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Antiandrogen Therapy for Androgenetic Alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update
Hair loss in women can be slowed with treatment, but more research needed for better solutions.
research Anti-Alopecia Activity of Alkaloids from Noni Fruit Against Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Male Rabbits and Its Molecular Mechanism: In Vivo and In Silico Studies
Noni fruit extract, specifically the FEA-3 sub-fraction, can increase hair growth and reduce baldness in male rabbits, potentially acting like common hair loss treatments.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor in the Management of Skin Diseases
Understanding how androgens and their receptors work can lead to improved treatments for skin diseases.
research Genetic and Molecular Aspects of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.
research Effects of Camellia Oleifera Seed Shell Polyphenols and 1,3,6-Tri-O-Galloylglucose on Androgenic Alopecia via Inhibiting 5α-Reductase and Regulating Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
Camellia oleifera seed shell polyphenols and 1,3,6-tri-O-galloylglucose can help treat hair loss by reducing certain hormones and promoting hair growth.
research The SAHA Syndrome: Overview and Classification
SAHA syndrome is a condition in women involving skin and hair issues, often related to hormonal imbalances, and is treated based on the underlying cause.
research Clinical Manifestations of Androgenic Alopecia in Females of Reproductive Age
Women of child-bearing age with androgenic alopecia lose hair density, especially in certain areas, and their hair becomes thinner. They also lose more than twice as much hair as healthy women.
research The Pathogenesis and Treatment Progress of Androgenic Alopecia
Future treatments for androgenic alopecia may focus on reactivating hair follicle stem cells and improving drug delivery.
research Biochemical and Trichological Characterization of Diffuse Alopecia in Women
Diffuse alopecia in women may be related to androgens and iron deficiency, and basic hormone and nutrient screening is useful.
research Tackling Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Chemotherapy-induced hair loss is a major concern, but various treatments show promise in preventing and reversing it.
research Selective Induction of Apoptosis in the Hamster Flank Sebaceous Gland Organ by a Topical Liposome 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor: A Treatment Strategy for Acne
