research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Metformin: An Old Medication of New Fashion: Evolving New Molecular Mechanisms and Clinical Implications in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin helps manage polycystic ovary syndrome by improving insulin resistance and ovulation, but more research is needed on its full effects.
research Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis Thaliana Is Directed by Calcium and an Endogenous Polarity
Calcium affects where root hairs grow, but other unknown factors determine their growth direction.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Stress Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inducing Premature Catagen Development and Harmful Perifollicular Inflammatory Events via Neuropeptide Substance P-Dependent Pathways
Stress stops hair growth in mice by causing early hair growth phase end and harmful inflammation through a specific nerve-related pathway.
research Volatile Signaling by Sesquiterpenes from Ectomycorrhizal Fungi Reprograms Root Architecture
Fungi-produced compounds can change plant root growth.
research Species Differences in Prostatic Steroid 5α-Reductases of Rat, Dog, and Human
Different animals have unique versions of the enzyme that changes testosterone into another hormone, which is important for creating effective treatments for prostate and hair loss conditions.
research Commensal Microbes and Hair Follicle Morphogenesis Coordinately Drive Treg Migration into Neonatal Skin
Hair follicle development and microbes help regulatory T cells gather in newborn skin.
research Alopecia Areata: A Review of Disease Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
research Alopecia Areata: Treatment Options and Efficacy
Some treatments can help with a hair loss condition called alopecia areata, but none ensure lasting results; choices depend on the person, with JAK inhibitors showing promise for severe cases.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Current Status of Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.
research Endocrinology of Transgender Medicine
Hormone treatments for transgender individuals generally improve mental health and physical transition, with some health risks that require medical supervision.
research Interventions for Alopecia Areata
Current treatments for alopecia show no significant long-term benefits.
research Differential Stripping: Determination of the Amount of Topically Applied Substances Penetrated into the Hair Follicles
The new "differential stripping" method effectively measures how much substance gets into hair follicles.
research ATP-Competitive mTOR Kinase Inhibitors Delay Plant Growth by Triggering Early Differentiation of Meristematic Cells Without Developmental Patterning Change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Molecular Biology of Hair Morphogenesis: Development and Cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Ultrashort Peptide Nanofibrous Hydrogels for the Acceleration of Healing of Burn Wounds
Peptide hydrogels heal burn wounds faster and better than standard dressings.

Silver can help prevent and treat infections but its effectiveness varies and should be weighed against costs and side effects.
research A Matter of Life and Death: Self-Renewal in Stem Cells
Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research Global Adiposity Rather Than Abnormal Regional Fat Distribution Characterizes Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have overall higher body fat, not abnormal fat placement, and more insulin resistance.
research WNT Signaling in Disease
The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.
research Historical and Current Adenosine Receptor Agonists in Preclinical and Clinical Development
The document concludes that adenosine receptor agonists have potential for treating various conditions, but only a few are approved due to challenges like side effects and the need for selective activation.
