September 2023 in “JEADV Clinical Practice” This study reviewed existing literature and found that androgenic alopecia may be associated with cardiovascular risk factors, while evidence for alopecia areata and cicatricial alopecias is limited and sometimes contradictory.
June 2023 in “Journal of biological chemistry/The Journal of biological chemistry” This study on Sdr16c5/Sdr16c6-null mice found that inactivating these genes significantly increased Meibomian gland secretions and altered lipid profiles but had a subtle impact on sebogenesis, suggesting the genes control a bifurcation point in meibogenesis pathways.
May 2023 in “Scientific Reports” This study found that Lepidium sativum seed extract showed potential in treating alopecia in rats by reducing 5(alpha)-dihydrotestosterone levels and improving hair length compared to minoxidil.
2 citations
,
September 2020 This Mendelian randomization study reports that lifelong increased free testosterone in males was associated with improved bone mineral density and body composition but increased risks of prostate cancer, hypertension, and several other conditions.
