Platelet-rich plasma injections significantly improve hair density and thickness in both male and female pattern hair loss, especially in early stages.
research Medical Treatment of Hepatocellular Carcinoma: Any Progress?
As of 1994, treatments for liver cancer had not significantly improved patient survival.
research Apocrine Sweat Gland Obstruction by Antiperspirants Allowing Transdermal Absorption of Cutaneous Generated Hormones and Pheromones as a Link to the Observed Incidence Rates of Breast and Prostate Cancer in the 20th Century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research A Model System for Long-Term Serum-Free Suspension Organ Culture of Human Fetal Tissues: Experiments on Digits and Skin from Multiple Body Regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.
research Effects on Steroid 5-Alpha Reductase Gene Expression of Thai Rice Bran Extracts and Molecular Dynamics Study on SRD5A2
Thai rice bran extracts, especially from Tubtim Chumphae rice, can significantly reduce the activity of hair loss genes, with x-tocopherol showing potential as an anti-hair loss product.
research Nonsurgical Therapy for Hair Loss
Some nonsurgical hair loss treatments are effective, especially if started early.
research Towards Expansion of Human Hair Follicle Stem Cells In Vitro
Scientists can grow human hair follicle stem cells in a lab without changing their nature, which could help treat hair loss.

Modern wound dressings like hydrocolloids, alginates, and hydrogels improve healing and are cost-effective.
research Natural Hair Supplement: Friend or Foe? Saw Palmetto, A Systematic Review in Alopecia
Saw palmetto supplements may modestly improve hair regrowth with few side effects, but more research is needed.
research Age Susceptibility of Ducks to the Rous Sarcoma Virus and Variation of the Virus in Ducks
Ducks can get the Rous sarcoma virus if infected shortly after birth, leading to tumors and disease spread.
research Evaluation of the Effectiveness of Mesenchymal Stem Cells of the Placenta and Their Conditioned Medium in Local Radiation Injuries
Placental mesenchymal stem cells and their conditioned medium significantly improve healing in local radiation injuries.
research Combinatorial Expression of Cell Cycle Regulators Is More Suitable for Immortalization Than Oncogenic Methods in Dermal Papilla Cells
Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.
research Lineage Potential, Plasticity, and Environmental Reprogramming of Epithelial Stem/Progenitor Cells
