research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Stem Cell Factor/c-Kit Signaling in Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research A Systematic Review on Topical Marketed Formulations, Natural Products, and Oral Supplements to Prevent Androgenic Alopecia
Various treatments, including FDA-approved drugs, natural products, and oral supplements, can help with hair loss, but a patient's medical history and potential allergies should be considered when choosing a treatment.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Overactive Bladder in Men: Finasteride for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride increases hair count and improves hair growth with low risk of side effects.
research Androgen Actions on the Human Hair Follicle: Perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Androgen Metabolism as It Affects Hair Growth in Androgenetic Alopecia
Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.
research Role of 5α-Reductase in Health and Disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research The Control of Hair Growth: An Overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Androgen Metabolism as It Affects Hair Growth in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgens, like DHT, affect hair growth and treatments like finasteride may help.
research Retinoids And Hair Growth
Hair loss can signal serious health issues, not just cosmetic concerns.
research Molecular Basis of Androgenetic Alopecia
research Pathobiology of Androgenetic Alopecia
The exact causes of baldness are not fully understood, limiting treatment options.
research Comparative Study of Some Potential Paracrine Factors Produced by Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
research Pharmacologic Interventions in Aging Hair
Minoxidil and Finasteride are effective for male baldness; more research is needed for hair aging treatments.
research Hormonal and Genetic Etiology of Male Androgenetic Alopecia
research Establishment of SV40T-Transformed Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Identification of Dihydrotestosterone-Regulated Genes by cDNA Microarray
Researchers created a cell line to study hair growth and found specific genes affected by dihydrotestosterone.
research Establishment and Characterization of Matched Immortalized Human Frontal and Occipital Scalp Dermal Papilla Cell Lines from Androgenetic Alopecia
Scientists created cell lines from balding patients and found that cells from the front of the scalp are more affected by hormones that cause hair loss than those from the back.
research Keratinocyte Growth Inhibition Through the Modification of Wnt Signaling by Androgen in Balding Dermal Papilla Cells
Androgens slow hair growth by altering Wnt signaling in balding cells.
research Establishment and Characterization of Five Immortalized Human Scalp Dermal Papilla Cell Lines
Researchers created five new human scalp cell lines that could be useful for hair growth and loss research.
research Progressive Expression of PPARGC1α Is Associated with Hair Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
research Hair Sciences: The Hair Cycle Discussed with Dr. Gilliam Westgate
Androgens affect hair growth and shedding, with genetic and non-genetic factors influencing baldness.
research The 5alpha-Reductase Type 1, But Not Type 2, Gene Is Expressed in Anagen Hairs Plucked from the Vertex Area of the Scalp of Hirsute Women and Normal Individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research A Hypothetical Pathogenesis Model for Androgenic Alopecia: Clarifying the Dihydrotestosterone Paradox and Rate-Limiting Recovery Factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Perifollicular Fibrosis: Pathogenetic Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen hormones cause hair follicle scarring in hair loss, and finasteride helps reduce it.
research Activin A-Induced Signaling Controls Hair Follicle Neogenesis
Activin A is important for creating new hair follicles.
research Minoxidil May Suppress Androgen Receptor-Related Functions
Minoxidil can reduce functions related to androgen receptors.
research Androgen Receptor Accelerates Premature Senescence of Human Dermal Papilla Cells in Association with DNA Damage
Androgen receptor signaling causes early aging of cells important for hair growth by damaging their DNA.
research Differential Expression Between Human Dermal Papilla Cells from Balding and Non-Balding Scalps Reveals New Candidate Genes for Androgenetic Alopecia
New genes found linked to balding, may help develop future treatments.
