research Minoxidil and Male-Pattern Alopecia: A Potential Role for a Local Regulator of Sebum Secretion with Vasoconstrictive Effects?
Minoxidil, a common hair loss treatment, might work by counteracting a hormone that reduces hair growth and promotes hair loss.
research Elevation of Circulating DNAs of Disease-Associated Cytokines in Serum Cell-Free DNA from Patients with Alopecia Areata
Higher levels of certain DNAs in blood may indicate hair follicle damage in alopecia areata patients.
research Effect of Immunosuppressive PPIase Inhibitors, Cyclosporin A, FK506, Ascomycin, and Rapamycin on Hair Growth Initiation
Cyclosporin A and FK506 can start new hair growth in mice, but ascomycin and rapamycin cannot.

IL-3 worsens lupus nephritis and blocking it improves kidney health.
research A Novel Therapeutic Paradigm for Patients with Extensive Alopecia Areata
New treatments targeting immune pathways show promise for severe hair loss but need more research for safety and effectiveness.
research Topical Mechlorethamine Restores Autoimmune-Arrested Follicular Activity in Mice with an Alopecia Areata-Like Disease by Targeting Infiltrated Lymphocytes
Mechlorethamine treatment regrew hair in mice by killing immune cells causing hair loss without harming hair follicles.
research Old Wine in New Bottles: Reviving Old Therapies for Alopecia Areata Using Rodent Models
Old treatments for other skin conditions showed promise for hair regrowth in mice with a hair loss condition.
research Unraveling the Link Between Ectodermal Disorders and Primary Immunodeficiencies
Skin abnormalities can indicate immunodeficiency due to shared origins with the immune system.
research Inflammatory Loops in the Epithelial-Immune Microenvironment of the Skin and Skin Appendages in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases

research Abstracts from the ASA 40th Annual Meeting
HNG may help prevent the negative effects of chemotherapy on sperm production and white blood cell counts.
research Australasian Society for Dermatology Research Meeting, May 2006
The meeting highlighted the genetic basis of female pattern hair loss and various skin health insights.
research Vitamin D and Human Health: Lessons from Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Mice without the vitamin D receptor have bone issues and other health problems, suggesting vitamin D is important for preventing various diseases in humans.
research Air Pollution and Skin Diseases: Adverse Effects of Airborne Particulate Matter on Various Skin Conditions
Air pollution worsens skin diseases and aging by causing inflammation and oxidative stress.
research Transforming Growth Factor-Beta in Stem Cells and Tissue Homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Linking Diet to Acne Metabolomics, Inflammation, and Comedogenesis: An Update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research In Human Skin, UVB Initiates Early Induction of IL-10 Over IL-12 Preferentially in the Expanding Dermal Monocytic/Macrophagic Population
UVB exposure in human skin causes macrophages to produce more IL-10 and less IL-12, leading to immunosuppression.
research Anti-Inflammatory, Cyclooxygenase Inhibitory, and Antioxidant Activities of Standardized Extracts of Tridax Procumbens L.
Extracts from Tridax procumbens L. have strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and block inflammation-causing enzymes.
research Treatment Strategies for Alopecia
Some treatments work for common baldness, but there's less evidence for other hair loss types, and more research is needed.
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 Retinoid-Mediated Stimulation of Steroid Sulfatase Activity in Myeloid Leukemic Cell Lines Requires RARα and RXR and Involves the Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase and ERK-MAP Kinase Pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Androgens Modulate Keratinocyte Differentiation Indirectly Through Enhancing Growth Factor Production From Dermal Fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research Systemic Treatment for Alopecia Areata
