,
August 2013 in “Journal of the National Cancer Institute” The abstract reports no new results but discusses Berry's belief that most changes in breast cancer incidence are due to screening, measurement adjustments, or hormone use.
1 citations
,
February 2018 in “The Journal of Sexual Medicine” This study found that young men with post-finasteride syndrome may experience erectile dysfunction due to potential histologic changes in penile tissue, despite having normal penile Doppler hemodynamics.
11 citations
,
May 2009 in “Medical Hypotheses” This paper proposes a theory explaining how the normal anabolic effects of androgens lead to structural changes and hair follicle miniaturization, contributing to androgenic alopecia.
4 citations
,
November 2024 in “Materials” In this study, researchers created nanowhiskers from crab shell-derived nanochitin that self-assembled into vibrant structural colors within a film. The material, sensitive to environmental changes, shows potential as a food freshness indicator and a sustainable dye for cosmetics due to chitin's biocompatibility.

July 2016 in “Clinical and Experimental Dermatology” In this study, different extracellular matrix types altered growth characteristics of cultured human dermal papillae cells but did not significantly affect their biological function-related characteristics.
December 2025 in “Biology” In this study, researchers observed that chronic stress affected wild-derived house mice differently by sex, with females showing less weight gain and distinct behavioral changes, while males exhibited higher hair corticosterone levels, suggesting divergent coping strategies and implications for sex-specific stress assessment protocols.
May 2024 in “British journal of dermatology/British journal of dermatology, Supplement” In this study, researchers found that frontal hair follicles in individuals with androgenetic alopecia show a higher biological age compared to occipital follicles, possibly due to decreased expression of the transcriptional repressor TRPS1 in frontal dermal papillae, which may influence follicle miniaturization.
This review highlights recent advances in the use of light exposure for health purposes, examining its role in pathology, therapeutic strategies, and molecular changes, as well as discussing future developments in this globally supported field.
March 2026 in “Frontiers in Medicine” This study suggests that traditional classification systems for pattern hair loss, while useful in the past, have limitations in accuracy and reproducibility, and highlights the potential of integrating digital imaging and AI to create more precise and biologically informed classification frameworks.
This study proposed a new standardized in vitro framework using human hair tresses to evaluate cosmetic hair product performance and found significant improvements in hair breakage, tensile strength, shine, volume, and frizz control compared to a control group without such changes.
