research Dihydrotestosterone Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inhibiting Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Production in Dermal Papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Signaling Couples Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence With Reduced Histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 for Proper Tissue Homeostasis
Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
research Neurosteroids Are Endogenous Neuroprotectants in an Ex Vivo Glaucoma Model
A natural steroid in the body may protect against eye damage in glaucoma.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research Unilateral Gynecomastia Induced by Treatment With 1 mg of Oral Finasteride
Finasteride can cause one-sided breast enlargement, which disappears after stopping the drug.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research CAG Repeat Testing of Androgen Receptor Polymorphism: Is This Necessary for the Best Clinical Management of Hypogonadism?
Testing for CAG repeat polymorphism in the androgen receptor gene is not currently recommended for managing hypogonadism.
research Smad4-Dependent Desmoglein-4 Expression Contributes to Hair Follicle Integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Advanced Inhibition of Undesired Human Hair Growth by PPARγ Modulation
GMG-43AC may help reduce unwanted hair growth and treat certain hair loss conditions.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Stem Cells and Aberrant Signaling of Molecular Systems in Skin Aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Arctiin Blocks Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Senescence and Cell Death Through MicroRNA Expression Changes in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Arctiin helps protect hair cells from damage and death caused by oxidative stress.
research Waterborne Polyurethanes from Castor Oil-Based Polyols for Next Generation of Environmentally-Friendly Hair-Styling Agents
Castor oil-based polyurethanes are promising for making safe, strong-performing, eco-friendly hair-styling products.
research Genome-Wide Association Study of Skin Complex Diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research Testosterone Levels in Relation to Oral Contraceptive Use and the Androgen Receptor CAG and GGC Length Polymorphisms in Healthy Young Women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research Nuclear Factor I-C Promotes Proliferation and Differentiation of Apical Papilla-Derived Human Stem Cells In Vitro
NFIC helps human dental stem cells grow and become tooth-like cells.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Hormones and Hair Growth
Different hormones affect hair growth and conditions, with some causing hair loss and others promoting it.
research Genetic Fate-Mapping Reveals Surface Accumulation But Not Deep Organ Invasion of Pleural and Peritoneal Cavity Macrophages Following Injury
Cavity macrophages gather on organ surfaces but don't really invade or help repair the organs after injury.
research Retinoid-Mediated Stimulation of Steroid Sulfatase Activity in Myeloid Leukemic Cell Lines Requires RARα and RXR and Involves the Phosphoinositide 3-Kinase and ERK-MAP Kinase Pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Pharmacological Activation of Estrogen Receptors-α and -β Differentially Modulates Keratinocyte Differentiation with Functional Impact on Wound Healing
Activating ER-β, not ER-α, improves skin cell growth and wound healing.
research Dehydroepiandrosterone for Women in the Peri- or Postmenopausal Phase
DHEA may help with sexual function when used intravaginally by menopausal women but is similar to hormone therapy in other aspects and might cause more side effects like acne and hair loss.
research Stem Cells and the Skin
Stem cells can rejuvenate skin, restore hair, and aid in wound healing.
research Analysis of the MicroRNA Expression Profile of Normal Human Dermal Papilla Cells Treated with 5α-Dihydrotestosterone
DHT affects hair follicle cells by changing microRNA levels, leading to less cell growth and more cell death.
research Issues in Transgender Dermatology: A Systematic Review of the Literature
The review highlights the need for more research on transgender dermatology, the role of dermatologists in gender affirmation, and the effects of hormone therapy on skin and hair.
research The Contribution of Endogenous and Exogenous Factors to Female Alopecia
