research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Prospects of Integrated Multi-Omics-Driven Biomarkers for Efficient Hair Loss Therapy from Systems Biology Perspective
New hair loss treatments could be improved by using combined biological markers.
research Female Progressive Scalp Hair Loss Associated with Ovarian Thecoma
A woman's hair loss was linked to a rare hormone-secreting ovarian tumor, treated with surgery and hair loss medication.
research Nociceptive and Non-Nociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its Druggability
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research Acanthosis Nigricans, Insulin Resistance, And Cutaneous Virilism
Patients with acanthosis nigricans often have insulin resistance and signs of increased male hormones, but treatment targeting these male hormones is generally ineffective.
research Hair Loss in Women: A Study at Sheffield Royal Infirmary (1959-1966)
Hair loss in women often doesn't follow a pattern, isn't linked to age, may be genetic, and can be related to thyroid issues or other health factors.
research What Factors Play a Role in Unhealthy Hair?
Environmental, chemical, mechanical, and personal health factors can all damage hair and contribute to hair loss or changes in hair quality.
research Potential Adverse Effects of Long-Term Testosterone Therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Genetics and Other Factors in the Etiology of Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research Dermatology Care Behind Bars
The first in-prison dermatology clinic in the U.S. faced challenges and found certain skin conditions common among inmates, with rare cases of serious skin cancer.
research Modulating Hair Follicle Size with Wnt10b/DKK1 During Hair Regeneration
Wnt10b makes hair follicles bigger, but DKK1 can reverse this effect.
research Rare and Common Genetic Determinants of Metabolic Individuality and Their Effects on Human Health
Genetic variations greatly affect individual metabolism and can impact health and disease risk.
research A Selection of Eleven Plants Used as Traditional Polynesian Cosmetics and Their Development Potential as Anti-Aging Ingredients, Hair Growth Promoters, and Whitening Products
Eleven traditional Polynesian plants show potential for natural anti-aging, hair growth, and skin brightening products.
research Cutaneous Signs in COVID-19 Patients: A Review
COVID-19 can cause different skin symptoms that may help with early diagnosis and show how severe the disease is.
research Inflammatory Phenomena and Fibrosis in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia may be due to ongoing tiny inflammation and tissue changes around hair follicles.
research Obstructive Sleep Apnea Due to Endogenous Testosterone Production in a Woman
Removing a testosterone-producing tumor cured a woman's sleep apnea and other symptoms.
research Skin Manifestations Associated with COVID-19
COVID-19 can cause various skin issues, like rashes and lesions, which are more common in younger patients and can be linked to more severe complications.
research Re-Densification Effect of Pressure-Injected Peptide-Hyaluronic Acid Combination on Male Androgenic Alopecia
Injecting a peptide-hyaluronic acid mix improved hair growth in men with hair loss and was safe.
research Association of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia with Male Pattern Baldness
Men with enlarged prostates often have more severe baldness.
research The Effect of Finasteride, a 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor, on Scalp Skin Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Patients with Male Pattern Baldness
Finasteride reduces scalp DHT levels, potentially treating male pattern baldness.
research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of White Wax and Policosanol from White Wax on the Mouse Model of Testosterone-Induced Hair Loss
White wax and policosanol from white wax effectively reduced hair loss and promoted hair growth in mice better than a known hair growth drug.
research An Overview of Management of Drug-Induced Hair and Nail Disorders

research CAG Repeat Testing of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism: Is This Necessary for the Best Clinical Management of Hypogonadism?
Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research Evidence of Increased DNA Methylation of the Androgen Receptor Gene in Occipital Hair Follicles from Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with hair loss have more DNA changes in back-of-head hair follicles, possibly protecting them from thinning.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Structure-Activity Relationships of Novel Androgen Receptor Ligands with Multiple Substituents in the B-Ring
