research Lack of Response of Alopecia Areata to Pimecrolimus Cream
Pimecrolimus cream is not effective for treating alopecia areata.
research Treatment with ImuVert and N-Acetylcysteine Protects Rats from Cyclophosphamide and Cytarabine-Induced Alopecia
N-acetylcysteine and ImuVert can prevent hair loss in rats caused by chemotherapy.
research Effect of Castration and Finasteride on Urinary Oxalate Excretion in Male Rats
Castration and finasteride lower urinary oxalate in male rats, potentially treating urolithiasis.
research Inhibitory Effects of bFGF, VEGF, and Minoxidil on Collagen Synthesis by Cultured Hair Dermal Papilla Cells
bFGF, VEGF, and minoxidil decrease collagen production in hair cells, possibly affecting hair growth.
research Minoxidil Prevents MDMA-Induced Serotonin Depletions: Role of Mitochondrial ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels, Akt, and ERK
Minoxidil prevents serotonin loss from MDMA by affecting potassium channels and increasing Akt phosphorylation.
research Percutaneous Absorption of a New Antiandrogen Included in Liposomes or in Solution
Liposomes can make the antiandrogen RU 58841 more effective for skin application by reducing absorption, increasing skin retention, and targeting sebaceous structures.
research Transforming Growth Factor-β, Smad, and Collagen Expression Patterns in Fetal and Adult Keratinocytes
Keratinocytes show more TGF-β system activity and collagen production as they age, which might affect wound scarring.
research Acyl-CoA Binding Protein and Epidermal Barrier Function
ACBP is essential for healthy skin and fur by maintaining the skin's barrier function.
research Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in the Scalp of the Stumptail Macaque Monkey, a Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen receptors found in monkey scalps, similar to humans, affect hair growth.
research Some Effects Related to the Potassium and Lysine Intake of Rats
Higher potassium intake may protect against hair loss and liver fat in lysine-deficient rats.
research Animal Models of Alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
