research Biochemical Roles of Testosterone and Epitestosterone to 5α-Reductase as Indicators of Male-Pattern Baldness
High testosterone to epitestosterone ratio in hair could predict male-pattern baldness.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update Of Treatment Options
Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.
research Restoration of Hair Follicle Inductive Properties by Depletion of Senescent Cells
Removing senescent cells can improve hair growth and regeneration.
research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men With Androgenetic Alopecia
Prostaglandin D2, found in higher levels in bald scalps, stops hair growth and could be a target for treating hair loss.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Male Pattern Baldness and Prostate Cancer Risk in a Population-Based Case-Control Study
Men who start losing hair at age 30 may have a lower risk of prostate cancer.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss: A Clinical and Pathophysiological Review
Female Pattern Hair Loss affects women's self-esteem and needs more research for better treatment.
research A Study of the Androgen Receptor Gene Polymorphism and the Level of Expression of the Androgen Receptor in Androgenetic Alopecia Among Egyptians
The study suggests that a specific gene variation and higher gene activity are linked to increased baldness in Egyptian men.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Topical Minoxidil Rejuvenates Hair Follicles in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia In Vivo
Topical minoxidil effectively stimulates hair growth in men with hair loss.
research Sleep Quality in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
research Minoxidil May Suppress Androgen Receptor-Related Functions
Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Cause of Androgenic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by scalp pressure on hair follicles, which increases with age and leads to a cycle of hair loss. This process is not directly determined by genes.
research Male Pattern Hair Loss: Can Developmental Origins Explain the Pattern?
Male pattern hair loss may be linked to the developmental origins of hair follicles.
research Clues About The Causes Of Male Pattern Baldness
A substance called prostaglandin D2 is linked to stopping hair growth in men with common baldness.
research SFRP2 Augments Wnt/β-Catenin Signalling in Cultured Dermal Papilla Cells
SFRP2 boosts Wnt3a/β-catenin signals in hair growth cells, with stronger effects in beard cells than scalp cells.
research The Endocrinology of Baldness
Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Male Pattern Baldness: Current Treatments, Future Prospects
Current treatments for male pattern baldness include minoxidil and finasteride, with new options being developed.
research The Effect of Autologous Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) on Patients with Alopecia Areata
PRP is an effective and safe treatment for alopecia areata.
research Sphere Formation Increases the Ability of Cultured Human Dermal Papilla Cells to Induce Hair Follicles from Mouse Epidermal Cells in a Reconstitution Assay
Forming spheres boosts the ability of certain human cells to create hair follicles when mixed with mouse skin cells.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Men Aged 40-69 Years: Prevalence and Risk Factors
Hair loss increases with age; alcohol raises risk, more female partners lowers it.
research Male Pattern Baldness and Its Association with Coronary Heart Disease: A Meta-Analysis
Severe baldness on the top of the head is linked to a higher chance of heart disease, especially in men under 60.
research News Updates
Early exposure to germs may protect against autoimmune diseases, lack of sex increases alcohol preference in fruit flies, a potential baldness treatment could involve blocking a specific receptor, skin memory cells help prevent re-infection, high-fat diets can affect brain cells related to weight, and the link between social status, stress, and heart disease in primates is unclear.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Men and Women
Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.
research Androgen Receptors Are Only Present in Mesenchyme-Derived Dermal Papilla Cells of Red Deer Neck Follicles When Raised Androgens Induce a Mane in the Breeding Season
Red deer only have androgen receptors in neck hair cells for mane growth during breeding season.
research Microneedling for Hair Loss
Microneedling is an effective and minimally invasive treatment for hair loss.
