research Premature Graying of Hair: Causes, Associations, and Treatments
Premature graying of hair may suggest health issues and currently lacks effective treatments.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Clinical Application of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, effectively treat BPH, male baldness, and hirsutism, with potential for acne and prostate cancer prevention.
research Influence of Substance P on Cultured Sebocytes
Substance P may worsen acne by increasing inflammation, but corticosteroids might help by reducing this effect.
research Thyroid Hormone Action on Skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research The Effect of Menopause on the Skin and Other Connective Tissues
Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
research Eph/Ephrin Signaling in Epidermal Differentiation and Disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Neuroendocrinology of Epithelial Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research Stem Cell Factor/c-Kit Signaling in Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research Aging in Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Niche Microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Assessment of the Usefulness of Dihydrotestosterone in the Diagnostics of Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research Azasteroids as Inhibitors of Testosterone 5α-Reductase in Mammalian Skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on the Upregulation of Inflammatory Cytokines in Cultured Sebocytes
Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Treatments and Efficacy
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
research Dormancy in the Stem Cell Niche
Some stem cells in the body rarely divide, which could help create better treatments for diseases and aging.
research Controlling the Stem Cell Niche: Right Time, Right Place, Right Strength
Wnt/ß-catenin signaling is crucial for regulating skin stem cells and hair growth, with the right levels and timing needed for proper function.
research Novel Agents for the Treatment of Alopecia
New treatments for hair loss show promise, especially finasteride for men and a stronger minoxidil formula.
research State-Dependent Signaling by Cav1.2 Regulates Hair Follicle Stem Cell Function
Cav1.2 affects hair growth and could be a target for hair loss treatments.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling by EGF Receptor Is Required for Hair Follicle Development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research The Hair Follicle Enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research Protective Role of Nutritional Plants Containing Flavonoids in Hair Follicle Disruption: A Review
Some plants with flavonoids may help treat hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Thyroid Hormone Action on Skin
Thyroid hormones affect skin texture, hair and nail growth, and can cause skin diseases related to thyroid problems.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride helps hair growth by decreasing cell death in hair follicles.
research Multi-Tasking Epidermal Stem Cells: Beyond Epidermal Maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Diet and Acne
Diet changes can help reduce acne by limiting certain hormones.
research Physical Methods for Topical Skin Drug Delivery: Concepts and Applications
New physical methods like electrical currents, ultrasound, and microneedles show promise for improving drug delivery through the skin.
research 5α-Reductase Type 1 Inhibition of Oryza Sativa Bran Extract Prepared by Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Fluid
Rice bran extract might help prevent hair loss.
research Stiffness-Controlled Thermoresponsive Hydrogels for Cell Harvesting with Sustained Mechanical Memory
The hydrogels help harvest cells while preserving their mechanical memory, which could improve wound healing.
research Alopecia: Unapproved Treatments or Indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
