research Analysis of 72,469 UK Biobank Exomes Links Rare Variants to Male-Pattern Hair Loss
Rare genetic variants in five specific genes are linked to male-pattern hair loss but only account for a small part of the risk.
research Metabolic Engineering of Microorganisms to Produce L-Aspartate and Its Derivatives
Scientists can use engineered microbes to make L-aspartate and related chemicals, but there's still room to improve their efficiency.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update
Two drugs, finasteride and minoxidil, are approved for hair loss treatment, but new therapies are being developed.
research Recent Advances in Neuropeptide-Related Omics and Gene Editing: Spotlight on NPY and Somatostatin and Their Roles in Growth and Food Intake of Fish
New tools show that in fish, NPY increases feeding and somatostatin decreases it.
research Maternal Iron Status in Early Pregnancy and DNA Methylation in Offspring: An Epigenome-Wide Meta-Analysis
A mother's iron levels early in pregnancy can influence the DNA makeup of her child, potentially affecting the child's health.
research Alopecias
The document discussed hair loss causes and treatments but didn't give a final summary.
research Male-Pattern Hair Loss: Comprehensive Identification of the Associated Genes as a Basis for Understanding Pathophysiology
Male-pattern hair loss is largely influenced by genetics, with key genes identified.
research Alopecia With Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type 2A: A Case Report
A child with a rare vitamin D-resistant condition improved with treatment.
research Subchronic Study of Sperm Morphology, Genotoxic and Mutagenic Effect of Lepidium Sativum Seeds Aqueous Extract In Vivo
High doses of Lepidium sativum seed extract are toxic and should be used with caution.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Effect of Estrogens on Skin Aging and the Potential Role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Androgen Actions on the Human Hair Follicle: Perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Effects of 5-Alpha Reductase Inhibitors on Erectile Function, Sexual Desire, and Ejaculation
5-alpha reductase inhibitors can cause sexual side effects like erectile dysfunction and reduced sexual desire, sometimes lasting after stopping the drug.
research Wnt Signaling and Aging-Related Heart Disorders
Wnt signaling may be linked to heart diseases in aging and could be a target for future treatments.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Sebaceous Gland Abnormalities in Fatty Acyl CoA Reductase 2 (Far2) Null Mice Result in Primary Cicatricial Alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
research Predominant Expression of 5 Alpha-Reductase Type 1 in Pubic Skin from Normal Subjects and Hirsute Patients
The main enzyme found in pubic skin that could be targeted to treat excessive hair growth is 5 alpha-R2.

Researchers developed a model to predict how well certain compounds can block an enzyme related to hair loss and prostate issues, suggesting a 50 mg dose of finasteride might be effective based on lab and body data.
research ATP-Dependent Chromatin Remodeling During Mammalian Development
ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes are crucial for gene regulation, cell differentiation, and organ development in mammals.
research ATP-Competitive mTOR Kinase Inhibitors Delay Plant Growth by Triggering Early Differentiation of Meristematic Cells Without Developmental Patterning Change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
