Scientists are still unsure what triggers the immune system to attack hair follicles in Alopecia areata.

Light therapy may improve eye conditions by stimulating cell activity and increasing oxygen availability.

Some lesser-known causes of PCOS include autoimmune issues, genetic mutations, and changes in the body's microbiome.

Androgenetic alopecia, or hair loss, is caused by a mix of genetics, hormones, and environment, where testosterone affects hair growth and causes hair to become smaller and grow for a shorter time.

The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.

DHT, a testosterone byproduct, causes male pattern baldness.

Skin problems in COVID-19 patients are rare and may be due to the body's complex immune response or blood clotting issues.

UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.

The research identified genes linked to male-pattern baldness and potential drug targets for treatment.

Six new genes linked to early hair loss were found, which also surprisingly connect to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility.

Six new genes linked to early hair loss were found, which also surprisingly connect to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility.

Six new risk spots for early hair loss were found, which also link to Parkinson's disease and lower fertility. Two genes, FOXA2 and HDAC4, could be new treatment targets. Hair loss might also be connected to heart disease, metabolic syndrome, and prostate cancer.

The T-zone on the face has more androgen receptors and produces more oil than the U-zone.

Disulfide bonds in keratin fibers break more easily under stress, especially when wet, affecting fiber strength.

Ducks can get the Rous sarcoma virus if infected shortly after birth, leading to tumors and disease spread.

Certain mutations in the PADI3 gene may increase the risk of developing a type of scarring hair loss common in women of African descent.

Identified genes linked to male-pattern baldness may help develop new treatments.

Terbinafine and itraconazole are more effective against Microsporum canis than fluconazole and griseofulvin.

RACB in barley is crucial for cell polarity and nucleus positioning, aiding fungal infection.

Genomic approach finds new possible treatments for hair loss.

A higher genetic risk score increases the chance of getting benign prostatic hyperplasia and affects treatment outcomes in Han Chinese men.

Mice without the vitamin D receptor are more prone to UV-induced skin tumors.

Sex hormones' effects on COVID-19 are unclear and more research is needed to understand their potential as treatment.

Increasing SSAT makes skin more prone to cancer.

IL16 gene variations may affect the risk of alopecia areata in Koreans.

Men taking 5-alpha reductase inhibitors for prostate issues may be less likely to experience severe COVID-19, but it doesn't prevent ICU admission or death.

Men may be more vulnerable to severe COVID-19 due to genetic and hormonal factors, but more research is needed.

Agmatine may help reduce seizures linked to hormone changes in female rats.

Higher TGF-β signaling may increase skin cancer risk in organ transplant recipients.
