180-210 / 517 resultsresearch The Effect of Testosterone, Cyproterone Acetate, and Minoxidil on Hair Loss in Androgenetic Alopecia Mouse
The mouse model could be useful for baldness research and testing treatments like testosterone, cyproterone acetate, and minoxidil.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth In Vivo
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research The Effects of Finasteride on Hair Growth, Hair Cycle Stage, and Serum Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone in Adult Male and Female Stumptail Macaques
Finasteride increases hair growth, prolongs hair cycle, and lowers dihydrotestosterone levels.
research Association Between Stress and Bilateral Symmetrical Alopecia in Free-Ranging Formosan Macaques in a High-Population-Density Area
Stress likely causes hair loss in Formosan macaques.
research The Secretory Clear Cell of the Eccrine Sweat Gland as the Probable Source of Excess Sweat Production in Hyperhidrosis
Eccrine sweat gland's clear cells likely cause excessive sweating in hyperhidrosis.
research Minoxidil Sulfation in the Hair Follicle
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating enzymes in hair follicles.
research Cross-Species Amplification of Human Microsatellite Markers in Pig-Tailed and Stump-Tailed Macaques
Some human genetic markers work for genetic studies in pig-tailed and stump-tailed macaques, which can help in their conservation.
research The Effect of Finasteride, a 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor, on Scalp Skin Testosterone and Dihydrotestosterone Concentrations in Patients with Male Pattern Baldness
Finasteride reduces scalp DHT levels, potentially treating male pattern baldness.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil on Hair Follicular Cycles of Rats
Minoxidil speeds up hair growth in rats without prolonging growth phase.
research Hair Through the Female Life Cycle
Women's hair generally gets thinner and less dense starting in their mid-thirties, with hair loss becoming more common as they age due to both genetics and environment.
research Animal Models of Androgen-Dependent Disorders of the Pilosebaceous Apparatus
Testosterone causes hair loss in AGA mice, which are good for testing baldness treatments, and both minoxidil and cyproterone acetate can prevent this hair loss.
research Eyelash Growth from Application of Bimatoprost in Gel Suspension to the Base of the Eyelashes
Bimatoprost gel makes eyelashes grow longer, but may cause side effects and should be monitored by an eye doctor.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Hair Regrowth Inhibition by Activating Androgen Receptor in C57BL6 Mice Simulates Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research Topical Minoxidil Therapy and Hair Regrowth
Minoxidil helps hair regrowth, especially with more indeterminate hairs.
research An Investigation of Apoptosis in Androgenetic Alopecia
Apoptosis contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Evaluation of RU58841 as an Anti-Androgen in Prostate PC3 Cells and a Topical Anti-Alopecia Agent in the Bald Scalp of Stumptailed Macaques
RU58841, a nonsteroidal anti-androgen, showed potential as a topical treatment for hair loss, increasing hair density, thickness, and length without systemic side effects in Stumptailed Macaques.
research Nonsurgical Therapy for Hair Loss
Some nonsurgical hair loss treatments are effective, especially if started early.
research Considerations on Hair Research and Hair Growth
The document concludes that hair biology is complex and there are still unanswered questions about hair loss and follicle changes.
research The Biology of Hair Follicles
Hair follicle biology advancements may lead to better hair growth disorder treatments.
research Minoxidil: Mechanisms of Action on Hair Growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The Endocrine Society advised against routine testosterone therapy for women, citing a need for more research on long-term safety and a clear definition of androgen deficiency.
research Lack of Efficacy of Finasteride in Postmenopausal Women with Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride doesn't effectively treat hair loss in postmenopausal women.
research Towards a Molecular Understanding of Hair Loss and Its Treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Balding Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells Contain Higher Levels of Androgen Receptors Than Those From Non-Balding Scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research Medical Treatments for Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss in men, while minoxidil treats hair loss in women.
