research Prolonged Treatment with Finasteride (a 5α-Reductase Inhibitor) Does Not Affect Bone Density and Metabolism
Long-term finasteride use doesn't change bone density or metabolism.
research Effects of Nitrendipine, Nifedipine, Verapamil, Phentolamine, Papaverine, and Minoxidil on Contractions of Isolated Rabbit Aortic Smooth Muscle
Nitrendipine and nifedipine effectively block muscle contractions, while papaverine relaxes them and minoxidil needs high amounts to work.
research Significance of the S100A4 Protein in Psoriasis
The S100A4 protein is more common in psoriatic skin and could be a target for treating psoriasis.
research Topical Minoxidil in Early Androgenetic Alopecia
Using minoxidil on balding scalps can stimulate hair regrowth and increase blood flow. It's an effective treatment for early hair loss.
research An Investigation of Vitamin D Status in Alopecia Areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 Receptor and Proglucagon Expression in Mouse Skin
Mice skin has components that could help with hair growth and might be used for diabetes treatment.
research Procyanidin B-2 Extracted from Apples Promotes Hair Growth: A Laboratory Study
Apple extract called procyanidin B-2 was found to greatly increase hair growth.
research Vitamin D Receptor Polymorphisms and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Systematic Review
The review found no clear link between vitamin D receptor gene variations and polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Circulatory Changes in Alopecia
The document suggests that the traditional understanding of hair growth cycles and alopecia may be inaccurate and that blood supply plays a significant role in hair growth and loss.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes

research The Role of Vitamin D in Non-Scarring Alopecia
Low vitamin D might be linked to certain types of hair loss, and supplements could help, but more research is needed.
research Stress-Induced c-Jun-Dependent Vitamin D Receptor Activation Dissects the Non-Classical VDR Pathway from the Classical VDR Activity
Stress activates a special function of the Vitamin D receptor with the help of c-Jun, which can also prevent cell death.
research Correlation of Vitamin D and Vitamin D Receptor Expression in Patients with Alopecia Areata: A Clinical Paradigm
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels, which are linked to more severe and longer-lasting hair loss, but vitamin D receptor levels in the skin don't show the same pattern and don't predict treatment success.
research Medication-Induced Repigmentation of Gray Hair: A Systematic Review
Some medications might reverse gray hair, especially those that reduce inflammation or stimulate pigment production, and vitamin B might help.
research Use of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Cicatricial Alopecia
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may help improve hair density in primary cicatricial alopecias (PCAs) patients, but more trials are needed to confirm its benefits.
research Minoxidil Is a Potential Neuroprotective Drug for Paclitaxel-Induced Peripheral Neuropathy
Minoxidil may protect nerves and improve hair quality during paclitaxel treatment.
research Hairless Modulates Ligand-Dependent Activation of the Vitamin D Receptor-Retinoid X Receptor Heterodimer
Hairless protein can both repress and activate vitamin D receptor functions, affecting gene regulation.
research Phenotypic Variability Associated with WNT10A Nonsense Mutations
WNT10A mutations cause varied symptoms in patients with odonto-onycho-dermal dysplasia.
research New Approaches to the Treatment of Osteoporosis
Future osteoporosis treatments should focus on increasing bone growth, with many promising options available.

research Comparison of the Efficacy of Homologous and Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma for Treating Androgenic Alopecia
All types of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) can treat hair loss, but homologous PRP works best due to its higher platelet count and growth factors from multiple donors.
research Alopecia and Platelet-Derived Therapies
Platelet lysate is more effective than activated autologous platelet-rich plasma or saline in improving hair growth after hair restoration surgery.
