research Hair Changes Caused by Aging
Aging causes hair to gray and thin, with the timing of graying varying by race, and factors like oxidative stress and genetics can lead to hair loss.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis, and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Obstetric Dermatology
The document concludes that managing skin conditions during pregnancy is important and requires specialized care.
research Viewpoint 1
Understanding skin patterns can help us learn about skin diseases and their treatments.
research Syndromes of Severe Insulin Resistance
The document concludes that Syndromes of Severe Insulin Resistance are rare disorders with limited treatment options.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Is EBF1 a Negative Regulator of WNT10A in the Development of Androgenetic Alopecia?
Finasteride helps female-pattern hair loss.
research Androgen Biosynthetic Pathways in the Human Prostate
DHT in the human prostate is produced through multiple pathways, not just from testosterone.
research Observations Suggesting a Contribution of Altered Dermal Papilla Mitochondrial Function to Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in men might be linked to changes in cell energy factories.
research Disruptors of Androgen Action and Synthesis
Certain pesticides and fungicides can interfere with male hormone functions, potentially causing reproductive issues in male rats.
research The Biological Actions of Dehydroepiandrosterone Involve Multiple Receptors
DHEA affects multiple receptors and may help with metabolic issues, but its safety and effectiveness in humans are unclear.
research Measuring Steroids in Hair Opens Up Possibilities to Identify Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia in Developing Countries
Hair steroid measurement is an effective method to diagnose and monitor CAH in developing countries.
research Moxibustion Improves Ovarian Function Based on the Regulation of the Androgen Balance
Moxibustion may help improve ovarian function by changing androgen levels.
research New Insights Into Testosterone Biosynthesis: Novel Observations From HSD17B3 Deficient Mice
Mice without the enzyme HSD17B3 still produce normal testosterone, suggesting they have different ways to make it compared to humans.
research Comorbidities and Treatment Options for Acne Keloidalis Nuchae
AKN is a chronic scalp condition in African-descended males, treated with topicals, antibiotics, steroids, and sometimes surgery or laser.
research Cholesterol Homeostasis in Hair Follicle Keratinocytes Is Disrupted by Impaired ABCA5 Activity
Impaired ABCA5 activity disrupts cholesterol balance in hair follicle cells, affecting hair growth.
research Mechanism of Action of Bolandiol (19-Nortestosterone-3β,17β-Diol), a Unique Anabolic Steroid with Androgenic, Estrogenic, and Progestational Activities
Bolandiol, a synthetic steroid, builds muscle and bone without greatly affecting sex glands, and works differently from other hormones.
research Determination of 19 Steroid Hormones in Human Serum and Urine Using Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry
The method accurately measures 19 steroid hormones in human blood and urine using a small sample and is suitable for large-scale monitoring.
research What Does the Research Say About Androgen Use and Cerebrovascular Events?
Androgen use may increase the risk of stroke, but more research is needed.
research Endocrine Functions of the Testes
The testes produce important hormones like testosterone and others that play key roles in male body functions.
research Cyanidin-3-O-Glucoside And Its Derivative Vitisin A Alleviate Androgenetic Alopecia By Exerting Anti-Androgen Effect And Inhibiting Dermal Papilla Cell Apoptosis
C3G and Vitisin A may help prevent hair loss by blocking male hormones and stopping hair cell death.
research Low Anabolic Profile in Assessing a Patient’s Overall Hair Loss
Certain supplements, like whey protein isolate and growth hormones, can worsen hair loss.
research Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Hair Follicle Development
Understanding hair follicle development can help treat hair loss, skin regeneration, and certain skin cancers.
research ERG Induces Androgen Receptor-Mediated Regulation of SOX9 in Prostate Cancer
ERG increases SOX9, promoting prostate cancer growth and invasion.
research Impaired Notch-MKP-1 Signalling in Hidradenitis Suppurativa: An Approach to Pathogenesis by Evidence from Translational Biology
Faulty Notch signalling may cause hair follicle changes and inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Histopathology of Aging of the Hair Follicle
Hair becomes gray and thin as we age, and while most hair loss in older people is due to genetics, there's a chance for gray hair to regain color under certain conditions.
research Approach to Androgen Excess in Women: Clinical and Biochemical Insights
The document concludes that a systematic approach is crucial to identify causes of androgen excess in women beyond the most common cause, Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
research Exploring the Impact of the Microbiome on Neuroactive Steroid Levels in Germ-Free Animals
Gut microbes significantly affect brain steroid levels.
