research Hair Follicle Signaling Networks: A Dermal Papilla–Centric Approach
The document concludes that dermal papilla cells are key for hair growth and could be used in new hair loss treatments.
research Finasteride Is the Main Inhibitor of 5α-Reductase Activity in Microdissected Dermal Papillae of Human Hair Follicles
Finasteride potentially treats hair loss by reducing DHT production.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research PBX Homeobox 1 Enhances Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cell Proliferation and Reprogramming Through Activation of the AKT/Glycogen Synthase Kinase Signaling Pathway and Suppression of Apoptosis
PBX1 helps hair stem cells grow and change by turning on certain cell signals and preventing cell death, which may be useful for hair regrowth treatments.
research Accelerated Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition Increased Fibrosis via Deleting Notch Signaling in Wound Vasculature
Disrupting Notch signaling in blood vessels increases scarring during wound healing in mice.
research Cholesterol Homeostasis: Links to Hair Follicle Biology and Hair Disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Combined Oral Contraception and Bicalutamide in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Severe Hirsutism: A Double-Blind Randomized Controlled Trial
Birth control pills combined with bicalutamide are more effective at reducing excessive hair growth in women with PCOS than birth control pills alone.
research Possible Therapeutic Effects of Ozone Mixture on Hypoxia in Tumor Development
Ozone therapy might improve cancer treatment and reduce its side effects.
research Hormonal Therapy in Dermatology
Hormonal therapy is a treatment option for acne, the only medical treatment for hirsutism, and the most promising for androgenetic alopecia.
research Sex-Specific Difference of Hippocampal Synaptic Plasticity in Response to Sex Neurosteroids
Sex neurosteroids cause different effects on hippocampal synaptic plasticity in males and females.
research An Important Role of Cutaneous Lymphatic Vessels in Coordinating and Promoting Anagen Hair Follicle Growth
Skin lymphatic vessels are essential for hair growth.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link Between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research Novel Inhibitors of 5α-Reductase
New research is needed to create better drugs that block the enzyme responsible for conditions like male baldness and prostate enlargement.
research Histologic Progression of Acne Inversa/Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Implications for Future Investigations and Therapeutic Intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research Characterization of Minoxidil/Hydroxypropyl-β-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex in Aqueous Alginate Gel Useful for Alopecia Management: Efficacy Evaluation in Male Rats
The gel made of minoxidil and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin improves hair growth and is good for long-term use.
research Estrogen-Dependent Development of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Association Analysis of Polymorphisms in Six Keratin Genes with Wool Traits in Sheep
Certain gene mutations are linked to wool quality in sheep and could help in breeding for better wool.
research Canine Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cells: Characterization and Potential as Therapy Candidate for a Large Animal Model of Spinal Cord Injury
Canine epidermal neural crest stem cells could be a promising treatment for spinal cord injuries in dogs.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research The Etiology and Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research The New Paradigm for Androgenetic Alopecia and Plant-Based Folk Remedies: 5α-Reductase Inhibition, Reversal of Secondary Microinflammation, and Improving Insulin Resistance
Plant-based remedies may treat hair loss by reducing inflammation and improving insulin resistance.
research Alopecia Areata: Clinical Perspective and an Insight into Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata causes hair loss due to an immune attack on hair follicles, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Ultrastructural and Immunohistochemical Characteristics of Telocytes in Human Scalp Tissue
Telocytes in the scalp may help with skin regeneration and maintenance.
research Treatment of Cystathionine Beta-Synthase Deficiency in Mice Using a Minicircle-Based Naked DNA Vector
MC-DNA vector-based gene therapy can temporarily treat CBS deficiency in mice.
research In Vivo Monitoring of Hair Cycle Stages via Bioluminescence Imaging of Hair Follicle NG2 Cells
Bioluminescence imaging can track hair follicle cells and help study hair regrowth.
research The Aetiopathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris: What's New?
Acne is caused by multiple factors including oil production, bacteria, inflammation, and possibly diet and environment.
research Tooth, Hair, and Claw: Comparing Epithelial Stem Cell Niches of Ectodermal Appendages
The conclusion is that teeth, hair, and claws have similar stem cell niches, which are important for growth and repair, and more research is needed on their regulation and potential markers.
research Genetic Ablation of Myelin Protein Zero-Like 3 in Mice Increases Energy Expenditure, Improves Glycemic Control, and Reduces Hepatic Lipid Synthesis
Removing myelin protein zero-like 3 in mice leads to better metabolism and resistance to obesity.
