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 The Role of Leptin in Selected Skin Diseases
Leptin affects skin and hair health and may worsen some skin conditions, but more research is needed to understand its full impact.
research Identification of Key Genes Induced by Platelet-Rich Plasma in Human Dermal Papilla Cells Using Bioinformatics Methods
Platelet-rich plasma may help hair follicle cells grow by affecting certain genes and pathways.
research Epimorphin Expression During Human Fetal Hair Follicle Development
Epimorphin, a protein, plays a key role in the development of hair follicles in human fetuses, but it doesn't help in maintaining the stem cell population of the follicular skin layer.
research Androgen Receptor in Human Health: A Potential Therapeutic Target
