Transethosomes improve drug delivery through the skin and show promise for treating various conditions.
research The Clinical Management of Hirsutism
The document concludes that managing hirsutism involves identifying the cause, using a scoring system for severity, combining cosmetic and medical treatments, encouraging weight loss, and providing psychological support, while noting the need for more research on drug treatments.
research Modulating Mesenchymal Stem Cell Behavior Using Human Hair Keratin-Coated Surfaces
Coating surfaces with human hair keratin improves the growth and consistency of important stem cells for medical use.
research Microemulsions as Carriers for Therapeutic Molecules
Microemulsions could improve how drugs are delivered and absorbed in the body.
research Optimization of Bear Oil Extraction Process and Hair Growth Activity
Enzymatically extracted bear oil has more unsaturated fats and significantly increases hair growth in mice.
research Recent Advances in the Molecular Mechanisms Determining Tissue Sensitivity to Glucocorticoids: Novel Mutations, Circadian Rhythm, and Ligand-Induced Repression of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Graft-Versus-Host Disease: Comprehensive Overview by the American Academy of Dermatology
Graft-versus-host disease is a complication where donor immune cells attack the recipient's body, often affecting the skin, liver, and gastrointestinal tract.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
research Melatonin Receptors and Their Role in Human Diseases
Melatonin receptors, found in many body parts, can help treat various diseases like depression and diabetes due to their effects on inflammation, tumor progression, sleep disorders, and body mass regulation.
research Lipoedematous Scalp Occurring in Two Female Siblings: Further Evidence of a Genetic Role?
Two sisters with lipoedematous scalp suggest a genetic influence in the condition.
research Stem Cells and the Circadian Clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Study on the Chemical Constituents of Nut Oil from Prunus Mira Koehne and the Mechanism of Promoting Hair Growth
Prunus mira nut oil helps hair grow by affecting the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway.
research Wound Healing Impairment in Type 2 Diabetes Model of Leptin-Deficient Mice: A Mechanistic Systematic Review
Leptin-deficient mice, used as a model for Type 2 Diabetes, have delayed wound healing due to impaired contraction and other dysfunctional cellular responses.
research The Role of Tight Junctions in Skin Barrier Function and Dermal Absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Risk Factors and Lipid Metabolism Characteristics of Early-Onset Male Androgenetic Alopecia: A Pilot Study
Low HDL-C, uric acid, and 25-hydroxyvitamin D are risk factors for early-onset male hair loss.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research An Updated Review of the Sebaceous Gland and Its Role in Health and Diseases Part 1: Embryology, Evolution, Structure, and Function of Sebaceous Glands
Sebaceous glands in our skin, developing during pregnancy and active in puberty, produce sebum for skin lubrication, temperature control, and fighting germs, also help in hormone regulation, and their dysfunction can cause conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and combined treatments are key for hirsutism management, and weight loss may help overweight patients.
research Whole-Genome Sequencing of Eight Goat Populations for the Detection of Selection Signatures Underlying Production and Adaptive Traits
Researchers identified genes linked to coat color, body size, cashmere production, and high altitude adaptation in goats.
