Stress in mice delays hair growth and treatments blocking substance P can partly reverse this effect.
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 Keratinocyte Stem Cells but Not Melanocyte Stem Cells Are the Primary Target for Radiation-Induced Hair Graying
Radiation mainly affects keratinocyte stem cells, not melanocyte stem cells, causing hair to gray.
research Type I Keratin 17 Protein Is Phosphorylated on Serine 44 by p90 Ribosomal Protein S6 Kinase 1 in a Growth- and Stress-Dependent Fashion
Keratin 17 is modified by RSK1 in response to growth and stress, affecting skin growth and stress response.
research Smad4-Dependent Desmoglein-4 Expression Contributes to Hair Follicle Integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research High Auxin and High Phosphate Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis Thaliana
High levels of auxin increase root hair growth by activating RSL2 and producing ROS, while high phosphate levels hinder growth by repressing RSL2.
research Effects of Imiquimod on Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Cycle Progression
Imiquimod cream activates hair follicle stem cells and causes early hair growth by changing immune cells and certain protein expressions.
research Hair Follicle Elongation in Organ Culture of Skin from Newborn and Adult Mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research Cyberbabes: Self-Representation of Women and the Virtual Male Gaze
To stop online sexism, both men and women need to change how they act.
research Finasteride: The First 5α-Reductase Inhibitor
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and baldness, but may cause limited urinary improvement and sex-related side effects.
research Topical Gene Electrotransfer to the Epidermis of Hairless Guinea Pig by Non-Invasive Multielectrode Array
The method safely and efficiently delivers genes to the skin but may not work for conditions needing high levels of gene products.
research Testosterone Metabolism in Human Skin Cells In Vitro and Its Interaction with Estradiol and Dutasteride
Different skin cells process testosterone differently, and certain drugs can change this process, possibly helping treat acne and hair loss.
research Sebaceous Immunobiology: Skin Homeostasis, Innate Immunity Coordination, Inflammatory Response, and Disease Associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Hair Cuticle Differences Between Asian And Caucasian Females
Asian hair is stronger and more damage-resistant than Caucasian hair due to a thicker cuticle layer.
research Long-Term Dutasteride Therapy in Men with Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Alters Glucose and Lipid Profiles and Increases Severity of Erectile Dysfunction
Long-term use of dutasteride for enlarged prostate may worsen blood sugar, cholesterol, and erectile dysfunction.
research Finasteride, Not Tamsulosin, Increases Severity of Erectile Dysfunction and Decreases Testosterone Levels in Men With Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Finasteride worsens erectile dysfunction and lowers testosterone in men with enlarged prostates, unlike tamsulosin.
research Long-Term Treatment with Finasteride 1 mg Decreases the Likelihood of Developing Further Visible Hair Loss in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride 1 mg helps prevent more hair loss in men with male pattern baldness.
research Telomere Dysfunction Impairs Epidermal Stem Cell Specification and Differentiation by Disrupting BMP/pSmad/P63 Signaling
Telomere damage affects skin and hair follicle stem cells by messing up important growth signals.
research Anagen Hair Follicle Repair: Timely Regenerative Attempts from Plastic Extra-Bulge Epithelial Cells
Certain cells outside the hair follicle's bulge area can quickly regenerate damaged hair follicles, potentially helping to reduce hair loss from cancer treatments.
research Pharmacokinetics of a Transdermal Testosterone Cream in Healthy Postmenopausal Women
A 5 mg dose of transdermal testosterone cream effectively restores testosterone levels in postmenopausal women.
research Mechanism of Salutary Effects of Finasteride on Post-Traumatic Immune/Inflammatory Response
Finasteride reduces inflammation and improves immune response after trauma by altering hormone levels.
research High Circulating Estrone and Low Testosterone Correlate with Adverse Clinical Outcomes in Men with Advanced Liver Disease
Men with advanced liver disease and high oestrone and low testosterone levels have worse health outcomes.
research The Overexpression of Tβ4 in the Hair Follicle Tissue of Alpas Cashmere Goats Increases Cashmere Yield and Promotes Hair Follicle Development
Overexpressing Tβ4 in goats' hair follicles increases cashmere production and hair follicle growth.
research Management of Cutaneous and Extracutaneous Side Effects of Smoothened Inhibitor Therapy for Advanced Basal Cell Carcinoma
The document concludes that side effects from Smoothened inhibitor drugs for skin cancer are reversible and can be managed with a team approach to maintain quality of life.
research The Phytocannabinoid (–)-Cannabidiol Operates as a Complex, Differential Modulator of Human Hair Growth: Anti-Inflammatory Submicromolar Versus Hair Growth Inhibitory Micromolar Effects
CBD can either reduce inflammation and not affect hair growth at low levels or inhibit hair growth at high levels.
research CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla-Derived Wnt Ligands Regulate Postnatal Hair Growth
