research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Low Anabolic Profile in Assessing a Patient’s Overall Hair Loss
Some supplements and hormones can increase hair loss by raising DHT levels.

research The Human Skin as a Hormone Target and an Endocrine Gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Genetically Altered Expression of Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Affects Fat Metabolism in Mice via Acetyl-CoA
The study investigated the effects of genetically altered expression of spermidine/spermine N1-acetyltransferase (SSAT) on fat metabolism in mice, revealing that SSAT overexpression led to a lean phenotype with increased glucose and fatty acid oxidation, while SSAT knock-out mice showed increased body fat and reduced oxidation rates. These changes were linked to alterations in acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA levels, suggesting that SSAT modulated fat metabolism by influencing acetyl-CoA availability. The study involved more than 25 animals per group, providing robust data and highlighting a potential link between polyamine metabolism and obesity control.
research Detection of Circular RNA Expression and Related Quantitative Trait Loci in the Human Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex
