The study concluded that Frontal fibrosing alopecia can affect younger people, is often missed in men, and may be autoimmune-related.
June 2023 in “Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery – Global Open” Exosomes may improve skin, scars, hair growth, and fat grafts in plastic surgery, but more research is needed.
May 2023 in “Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology” The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
April 2023 in “Dentistry” Baby teeth stem cells can potentially grow organs and treat diseases.
March 2023 in “International journal of trichology” Six genetic conditions are often linked to complete scalp hair loss in children.
January 2023 in “Burns & Trauma” The study concluded that the new wound model can be used to evaluate skin regeneration and nerve growth.
November 2022 in “International Journal of General Medicine” Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome are more likely to have Non-Alcoholic Fatty Pancreas Disease, which is associated with older age, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance, and high male hormone levels.
October 2022 in “Frontiers in Endocrinology” New tools show that in fish, NPY increases feeding and somatostatin decreases it.
February 2022 in “Mediators of Inflammation” Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) have lower levels of a substance called DIAPH1 in their blood, which is linked to changes in sugar metabolism and insulin resistance.
January 2022 in “IntechOpen eBooks” Some lesser-known causes of PCOS include autoimmune issues, genetic mutations, and changes in the body's microbiome.
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might reduce it. AST decreases recurrence-free survival but doesn't affect overall survival or progression-free survival. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits.
Androgen suppression therapy (AST) doesn't significantly lower bladder cancer risk, but using finasteride, a type of AST, might decrease the risk. AST also lessens the chance of cancer coming back but doesn't really affect survival rates. More research is needed to understand AST's benefits for different bladder cancers.
May 2020 in “Authorea (Authorea)” Olfactory receptors found outside the nose may offer new treatments for diseases like cancer and help in wound healing and hair growth.
Hidradenitis Suppurativa has genetic links, with certain gene mutations more common in patients and a third of cases having a family history.
April 2024 in “Frontiers in microbiology” Certain gut bacteria may increase or decrease the risk of male pattern baldness.
February 2023 in “Scientific Reports” Cold Atmospheric Microwave Plasma (CAMP) helps hair cells grow and could potentially treat hair loss.
December 2022 in “Journal of Experimental Biology and Agricultural Sciences” Using certain plant growth regulators together improves the cloning of the medicinal plant Eclipta alba.
