November 2003 in “Journal of Neurochemistry” This study suggests that the neurosteroid allopregnanolone may play a crucial role in how ethanol affects neurons related to alcohol addiction vulnerability.
January 2003 in “Swinburne Research Bank (Swinburne University of Technology)” This study found that inhibiting apoptosis during hair follicle regression in mice disrupted hair regeneration, causing delays and alterations in stem cell niche architecture and associated tissue remodeling processes.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that blocking apoptosis during the catagen phase in mice disrupts hair follicle stem cell niche architecture, delaying subsequent hair regeneration cycles.
This study suggests that hair follicle dermal stem/progenitor cells play a key role in both hair regeneration and skin wound healing, with potential implications for preventing hair follicle miniaturization linked to aging or alopecia.
February 2005 in “The Journal of Urology” This article evaluates sexual function using the International Index of Erectile Function in people taking finasteride for androgenetic alopecia but does not present new findings.
