Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.

Hair restoration surgery can have complications; success depends on patient education, careful planning, and proper execution.

Facelift surgery has evolved to focus on natural results and safety, with patient selection and postoperative care being key to success.

Testosterone can slow hair growth in adult monkeys, but a blocker called RU 58841 can counteract this and potentially help hair regrow.

A specific chemical change in the S100A3 protein leads to the formation of a four-part structure important for hair formation.

Atypical male hair loss may not respond to usual treatments.

Beard hair follicles have more androgen receptors than non-balding scalp hair follicles.

Human beard hair follicles change testosterone into other related hormones, but don't much change androstenedione into testosterone.

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 concludes that specialized hair transplant techniques can be effective, with varying success rates depending on the donor area and patient factors.

Changing hair follicle identity could potentially reverse balding.

The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.

Researchers mapped and categorized specific keratin-associated protein genes on human chromosome 21q22.1.

Finasteride potentially treats hair loss by reducing DHT production.

SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.

Beard hair can be used for hair transplants in severe alopecia cases, with minimal complications and good results.

Hair follicles and deer antlers regenerate similarly through stem cells and are influenced by hormones and growth factors.

Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.

Understanding hair follicles through various models can help develop new treatments for hair disorders.

AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.

Higher IGF-1 levels in hair follicles link to better finasteride results for hair loss.

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.

Steroidogenic isoenzymes may help improve treatments for common hair loss.

Dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and could help us understand and treat hair loss.

Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.

Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.

DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.

Hair loss in androgenetic alopecia may be due to ongoing tiny inflammation and tissue changes around hair follicles.

Male androgenetic alopecia involves hair follicle miniaturization due to DHT, with potential treatments using inhibitors and blockers.

Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
