research Neurological Presentation of Psittacosis During a Small Outbreak in Leicestershire
A woman showed neurological symptoms from psittacosis linked to bird exposure, improving after antibiotic treatment.
research The Therapeutic Potential of CRTH2/DP2 Beyond Allergy and Asthma
CRTH2 antagonists might be useful for treating many conditions because they play a role in immune and inflammation responses.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia: Targeting ATP-Binding Cassette Transporters in the Hair Follicle
Increasing ABC transporters in hair follicles may prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Polyclonal Origin and Hair Induction Ability of Dermal Papillae in Neonatal and Adult Mouse Back Skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Thyroid Hormone Action on Skin
Thyroid hormones affect skin texture, hair and nail growth, and can cause skin diseases related to thyroid problems.
research Targeted Transfollicular Delivery of Artocarpin Extract from Artocarpus Incisus by Means of Microparticles
Microparticles containing artocarpin extract could effectively treat hair loss and acne with minimal side effects.
research Critical Role of ATP-P2X7 Axis in UV-Induced Melanogenesis
ATP increases melanin production in skin after UV exposure, with the P2X7 receptor being crucial for this process.
research Applications of Steroid Drugs Entrapped in Cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve how steroid drugs work and are used in marketed medications and environmental applications.
research Experimental, Molecular Docking Investigations and Bioavailability Study on the Inclusion Complexes of Finasteride and Cyclodextrins
Cyclodextrins improve finasteride's solubility and bioavailability for hair loss treatment.
research The Effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cells and Chitosan Gel on Full Thickness Skin Wound Healing in Albino Rats: Histological, Immunohistochemical and Fluorescent Study
Mesenchymal stem cells, especially injected into the skin, heal wounds faster and better than chitosan gel or other treatments.
research Detection of Urine Metabolites in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome by UPLC Triple-TOF-MS
Researchers found potential urine markers for polycystic ovary syndrome, including testosterone-glucuronide and 11α-hydroxyprogesterone, which may help diagnose the condition.
research Age Dependence of the Cardiac Lesions Induced by Minoxidil in Rats
Older rats more affected by minoxidil's cardiotoxic effects than younger rats.
research The History of the Development of Minoxidil
Minoxidil was first made for high blood pressure, but it was later found to help hair growth.
research Selective Inhibition by Minoxidil of Prostacyclin Production by Cells in Culture
Minoxidil stops cells from making prostacyclin, which may help with hair growth. More research is needed.
research Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia: A Disorder of Androgen Metabolism in Males
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia may be caused by changes in how the body processes male hormones.
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
