research GDNF Neurotrophic Factor Signaling Determines the Fate of Dermal Fibroblasts in Wound-Induced Hair Neogenesis and Skin Regeneration
GDNF signaling helps in hair growth and skin healing after a wound.
research Scalp Sebaceous Physiology
The document concludes that scalp health is influenced by complex factors affecting sebaceous glands, including hormones, aging, and various substances.
research Loss-Of-Function Mutations of an Inhibitory Upstream ORF in the Human Hairless Transcript Cause Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Effects of Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate, the Copper IUD, and the Levonorgestrel Implant on Testosterone, Sex Hormone Binding Globulin, and Free Testosterone Levels: Ancillary Study of the ECHO Randomized Clinical Trial
The levonorgestrel implant increases free testosterone and lowers SHBG more than DMPA-IM and the copper IUD.
