research Antiandrogenic Activities of Glycyrrhiza Glabra in Male Rats
Liquorice may reduce testosterone and affect male reproductive organs, potentially helping treat conditions like prostate cancer.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: New Insights Into the Pathogenesis and Mechanism of Hair Loss
New model shows muscle affects hair loss differently in men and women.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: New Insights into the Pathogenesis and Mechanism of Hair Loss
The arrector pili muscle plays a key role in hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Melatonin Promotes Cashmere Goat (Capra Hircus) Secondary Hair Follicle Growth: A View from Integrated Analysis of Long Non-Coding and Coding RNAs
Melatonin helps Cashmere goats grow more hair by affecting genes and cell signals important for hair and blood vessel development.
research A Randomized Double-Blind Placebo-Controlled Pilot Trial on the Effects of Testosterone Undecanoate Plus Dutasteride or Placebo on Muscle Strength, Body Composition, and Metabolic Profile in Transmen
Testosterone with dutasteride improves muscle strength and body composition in trans men.
research Comment on Scalp Neuropathy in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
research Controllable Production of Transplantable Adult Human High-Passage Dermal Papilla Spheroids Using 3D Matrigel Culture
Researchers created hair-inducing human cell clusters using a 3D culture method.
research Synaptic-Like Vesicles and Candidate Transduction Channels in Mechanosensory Terminals
SLVs help maintain muscle stretch sensitivity and could aid in treating hypertension and muscle spasticity.
research The Microanatomy of Human Skin in Aging
Aging skin shows thinner layers, fewer hair follicles, and new biomarkers like increased space between cells and smaller sebaceous glands.
research Hair Follicle Biology and Topical Minoxidil: Possible Mechanisms of Action
Minoxidil stimulates hair growth by increasing hair thickness and prolonging growth phase.
research Brain And Muscle Arnt-Like Protein-1 (BMAL1) Controls Circadian Cell Proliferation And Susceptibility To UVB-Induced DNA Damage In The Epidermis
BMAL1 controls skin cell growth and UV damage risk, peaking at night.
research Curly Hair Follicle Is Sculpted by a Contracted Arrector Pili Muscle: A Hypothesis with Treatment Implications
Curly hair may be caused by a muscle contraction, and muscle relaxants might help treat it.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma for Androgenic Alopecia Treatment: A Comprehensive Review
PRP shows promise for treating hair loss but needs more research.
research Melatonin Promotes Cashmere Goat (Capra Hircus) Secondary Hair Follicle Growth: A View from Integrated Analysis of Long Non-Coding and Coding RNAs
Melatonin helps Cashmere goat hair follicles grow by affecting genes and cell signals important for their development and environment.
research Hair Organ Regeneration Via Bioengineered Hair Follicular Unit Transplantation
Scientists successfully created and transplanted bioengineered hair follicles that function like natural ones, suggesting a new treatment for hair loss.
research Pharmacology of Anabolic Steroids
Anabolic steroids can build muscle and strength but have risks and need more research on their clinical benefits and side effects.
research Effects of Ginsenoside Rb1 on Hypertrophic Scar Remodeling in Rabbit Model
Ginsenoside Rb1 may help remodel hypertrophic scars effectively at a dose of 0.56 mg.
research Low-Dose In Utero Exposure to Finasteride Promotes Developmental Changes in Both Male and Female Gerbil Prostates
Exposure to low doses of finasteride in the womb causes changes in the prostate of both male and female gerbils.
research Finasteride Adverse Effects and Post-Finasteride Syndrome: Implications for Dentists
Finasteride, used for treating hair loss, can cause mental, physical, and sexual side effects, some of which may persist even after stopping the drug, and it can also cause mild to moderate oral issues.
research A Mouse Model for Studying Stem Cell Effects on Regeneration of Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheaths
The study found that stem cells and neutrophils are important for regenerating hair follicle structures in mice.
research The Prevention of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
A vaccine may prevent benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH).
research Introducing Theory Linking Genesis of Hair Shaft Bipolarity with Arrector Pili Muscle Proximal Attachment
The document suggests that human hair has electrical charges because of a gap in nerve cell coverage that affects electromagnetic radiation.
research Ornithine Decarboxylase Is Upregulated by the Androgen Receptor in Skeletal Muscle and Regulates Myoblast Proliferation
Androgens increase muscle mass by promoting myoblast growth through ornithine decarboxylase.
research Effect of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Androgenic Induced Alopecia in Adult Male Albino Rats Versus Conventional Minoxidil Treatment
Stem cell therapy is more effective than minoxidil for hair growth in androgenic alopecia.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Chloroquine and Cinchonine Affect Rat Vascular Smooth Muscle Tonus Through Calcium Channels – In Silico and In Vitro Approaches
Chloroquine and cinchonine relax rat blood vessels by affecting calcium channels, with chloroquine needing caution in heart patients.
research Histopathology of Alopecia Areata, Acute and Chronic: Why Is It Important to the Clinician?
