Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research TNF-Inhibitor Associated Psoriatic Alopecia: Diagnostic Utility of Sebaceous Lobule Atrophy
Shrinking of oil glands in the skin is a key sign of hair loss linked to TNF inhibitor drugs and may improve if the treatment is stopped.
research Towards a Molecular Understanding of Hair Loss and Its Treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Actions of Isotretinoin and Etretinate on the Pilosebaceous Unit
Isotretinoin shrinks sebaceous glands without affecting hair or skin color, unlike etretinate.
research Ursolic Acid Reduces Prostate Size and Dihydrotestosterone Level in a Rat Model of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Ursolic acid can shrink the prostate and lower a hormone linked to prostate growth in rats.
research Role of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors in Benign Prostatic Diseases
5α-reductase inhibitors help shrink the prostate, improve urinary symptoms, and may reduce prostate cancer risk.
research Effect of the Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor Dutasteride on Markers of Tumor Regression in Prostate Cancer
Dutasteride may help shrink prostate cancer tumors.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Clinical Pharmacokinetics and Pharmacodynamics of Finasteride
Finasteride helps regrow hair and shrink prostate by reducing DHT, with some sexual side effects.
research P53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Pharmacological Inhibition of Stearoyl CoA Desaturase in the Skin Induces Atrophy of the Sebaceous Glands
Blocking SCD1 in the skin with XEN103 shrinks sebaceous glands in mice.
research An Update on the Pathophysiology of Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss involves hair follicles shrinking, influenced by hormones like melatonin and prolactin.
research The Evolution of the Promise of Hair Cloning: How Hair Cell Cloning Will Fit Into Your Practice
Hair cell cloning could potentially rejuvenate shrinking hair follicles, allowing for lifelong hair maintenance.
research 254 Withdrawn
Aging causes sweat glands to shrink, leading to skin issues, and blue light can help hair grow.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Mechanisms and Progression
Androgenetic alopecia causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to androgens, with the connection between the muscle and hair follicle determining if the loss is reversible.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, Which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate, shrinks it, improves urination, but may cause sexual dysfunction and isn't for women or children.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Morphological Changes in Human Scalp Hair Roots During Protein Deprivation
Not eating enough protein can cause hair roots to shrink and lose color, and hair to become thinner.
research Menkes Syndrome Presenting as Myoclonic Seizures: Neuroimaging and EEG Observations
An 11-month-old boy with Menkes disease had severe brain shrinkage and abnormal blood vessels, and didn't respond well to treatment.
