research How Far Should We Investigate Diffuse Alopecia in Women?
Routine thyroid tests for diffuse alopecia in women may not be necessary, but checking for iron deficiency anemia could be useful.
research Dual Deficiency of Melatonin and Dihydrotestosterone Promotes Stromal Cell Damage and Mediates Prostatitis via the cGAS-STING Pathway in Sleep-Deprived Mice
Lack of sleep in mice leads to prostatitis by reducing certain hormones and activating an inflammatory pathway, which can be temporarily fixed with normal sleep.
research Transcriptome Analysis of Skin from SMP30/GNL Knockout Mice Reveals the Effect of Ascorbic Acid Deficiency on Skin and Hair
Vitamin C deficiency changes gene expression, affecting skin and hair health.
research Cyclin D3 Deficiency Inhibits Skin Tumor Development But Does Not Affect Normal Keratinocyte Proliferation
Lacking cyclin D3 reduces skin cancer growth without affecting normal skin cell growth.
research Biotin and biotinidase deficiency
The document reviewed the importance of biotin and biotinidase (BTD) in maintaining biotin homeostasis, crucial for preventing deficiency-related health issues such as hair loss, seizures, and dermatitis. It noted that biotin deficiency could result from various factors, including inadequate intake and drug interactions, and was particularly concerning in pregnant women, potentially affecting fetal development. BTD deficiency, often genetic, required lifelong biotin supplementation to prevent severe symptoms and irreversible neurological damage. The incidence of profound BTD deficiency was 1 in 112,271. The document also explored the genetic aspects of BTD, identifying over 110 mutations affecting its activity, and highlighted the need for further research on biotin's role in chromatin structure and genome stability.
research Betaine Supplementation Is Less Effective Than Methionine Restriction in Correcting Phenotypes of CBS Deficient Mice
Methionine restriction works better than betaine for treating CBS deficiency symptoms in mice.
research Metabolomic Analysis of SMP30/GNL Knockout Mice Treated with Fermented Vegetable and Fruit Extract (OM-X)
OM-X® helped prevent negative effects of Vitamin C deficiency in mice, suggesting it could protect organs and regulate metabolism.
research Hair Loss Management
Eat a balanced diet for healthy hair; only use supplements if you have a proven nutrient deficiency.
research The Role of Anemia and Vitamin D Levels in Acute and Chronic Telogen Effluvium
Low iron levels are a significant risk factor for hair loss, while high vitamin D levels might be a response to hair loss, not a cause.
research Protoporphyrin IX: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.
research Simultaneous Quantification of Dexpanthenol and Resorcinol from Hair Care Formulation Using Liquid Chromatography: Method Development and Validation
Researchers created a reliable method to measure dexpanthenol and resorcinol in hair products.
research Influence of Vitamin D on the Incidence of Metabolic Syndrome and Hormonal Balance in Patients with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Vitamin D deficiency is linked to a higher chance of metabolic syndrome in women with PCOS.
research The Expression of Phosphorus-Responsive Genes Is Related to Root Hair Growth
Certain genes may promote longer root hairs in plants when phosphorus is low.
research The Nuclear Vitamin D Receptor: Biological and Molecular Regulatory Properties Revealed
The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.
research The Role of Vitamin D in Non-Scarring Alopecia
Low vitamin D might be linked to certain types of hair loss, and supplements could help, but more research is needed.
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 Presence of a Deletion Mutation (c.716delA) in the Ligand Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor in an Indian Patient with Vitamin D-Dependent Rickets Type II
A genetic mutation caused severe rickets and alopecia in an Indian patient, but high-dose calcium and phosphate treatment improved their condition.
research Cutaneous Changes in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure on Hemodialysis
Patients with chronic renal failure on hemodialysis often have skin problems like dry skin, itching, and nail changes.
research Regeneration of Hair Follicles Is Modulated by Flightless I (Flii) in a Rodent Vibrissa Model
Flightless I protein affects hair growth, with low levels delaying it and high levels increasing hair length in rodents.
research The Effect of Dietary Modulation of Sulfur Amino Acids on Cystathionine Beta Synthase–Deficient Mice
Changing the diet of mice lacking the enzyme CBS can affect symptoms related to the genetic condition.
research Alopecia Induced in Young Mice by Exposure to Excess Dietary Zinc
Too much zinc in the diet can cause hair loss and color change in young mice by reducing copper in the body.
research Homozygous Whole Body Cbs Knockout in Adult Mice Features Minimal Pathology During Aging Despite Severe Homocysteinemia
Adult mice with CBS deficiency show minimal health issues and normal lifespan despite high homocysteine levels.
research Changes in Hydrophobic Proteins in Response to Biotin Administration in Serum of Infant Patients with Alopecia as Assessed by the Protein Micro-Sequencing Method
Biotin helps regulate proteins in the blood, which may explain its role in hair growth.
research Importance of Zinc in Plant Nutrition: A Review
Zinc is essential for plant growth and human health.
research Cell Surface Receptor Kinase FERONIA Linked to Nutrient Sensor TORC Signaling Controls Root Hair Growth at Low Temperature Linked to Low Nitrate in Arabidopsis Thaliana
A protein called FERONIA helps control root hair growth in response to cold and low nitrogen by activating nutrient-sensing pathways in a plant called Arabidopsis.
research Inherited Disorders of the Hair
