research Treatment of Female Androgenetic Alopecia with Minoxidil 2%
Minoxidil 2% effectively treats female hair loss, promoting growth and density.
research Treatment of Hirsutism and Acne with Cyproterone Acetate
Cyproterone acetate is effective for treating hirsutism and acne but less so for hair loss, with side effects similar to birth control pills.
research Evidence-Based Approach to Cutaneous Hyperandrogenism in Women
The conclusion is that oral contraceptives and antiandrogens can treat hirsutism and acne in women with cutaneous hyperandrogenism, but more research is needed for effective treatments, especially for hair loss.
research Are Sex Discordant Outcomes in COVID-19 Related to Sex Hormones?
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with men often faring worse, and targeting related pathways could offer treatment options.
research Transient Mitochondrial DNA Double Strand Breaks in Mice Cause Accelerated Aging Phenotypes in a ROS-Dependent but p53/p21-Independent Manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Proliferation, But Not Apoptosis, Is Associated With Distinct Beta-Catenin Expression Patterns in Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinomas
Distinct β-catenin patterns are linked to cell growth, not cell death, in lung cancer.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Control by a Hair’s Breadth: The Role of MicroRNAs in the Skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
