research Guava Leaf Extract as Bioactive Substances for Anti-Androgen and Antioxidant Activities
Guava leaf extract may help treat hair loss and protect cells by blocking certain genes and fighting damaging molecules.
research HIF-1α Stimulators Function Equally to Leading Hair Loss Agents in Enhancing Dermal Papilla Growth
HIF-1α stimulators, like deferiprone, work as well as popular hair loss treatments, minoxidil and caffeine, in promoting hair growth.
research Comparative Gene Expression Profiling of Senescent and Androgenetic Alopecia Using Microarray Analysis

research Dermal Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Controls Hair Follicle Dermal Condensate Size During Development
Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for the proper size and development of hair follicles.
research Topical Botanical Extract for Management of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
A botanical extract may help manage hair loss from chemotherapy by preventing cell death in hair follicles.
research Current Literature Review on Sexual Health and Function
The document suggests that finasteride may cause depression and suicidal thoughts, while prostate surgery does not harm sexual health.
research News in Brief

research Using Platelet-Rich Plasma to Treat Hair Loss and Thinning
Injecting platelet-rich plasma into the scalp stimulates hair growth, increases hair density, and treats hair loss effectively with minimal side effects.
research Hair Follicle-Derived IL-7 and IL-15 Mediate Skin-Resident Memory T Cell Homeostasis and Lymphoma
Hair follicle-derived IL-7 and IL-15 are crucial for maintaining skin-resident memory T cells and could be targeted for treating skin diseases and lymphoma.
research The Inductive Effect of Ginsenoside F2 on Hair Growth by Altering the WNT Signal Pathway in Telogen Mouse Skin
Ginsenoside F2 from ginseng may increase hair growth better than standard treatments by affecting cell growth signals.
research Intralesional Therapy for the Treatment of Keratoacanthoma
Intralesional therapy for keratoacanthoma is effective and has fewer side effects than systemic treatments.
research Avicequinone C Isolated from Avicennia Marina Exhibits 5α-Reductase Type 1 Inhibitory Activity Using an Androgenic Alopecia Relevant Cell-Based Assay System
Avicequinone C, a compound found in the Avicennia marina plant, can reduce hair loss by inhibiting a hormone linked to androgenic alopecia.
research Mommy, Where Do Tumors Come From? The Origins of Basal Cell Carcinomas
Some skin tumors may start from hair follicle stem cells.
research Current Treatment of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
