Trichoscopy helps tell apart Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Lichen planopilaris by showing different hair and scalp features.
research Do We Need Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Follicle Neogenesis to Cure Common Hair Loss Disorders?
Common hair loss disorders may not need stem cell therapy, but could benefit from other treatments like hair cycle control and immune restoration therapy.
research Is TrichoScan a New Diagnostic Method for Diffuse Hair Loss?
TrichoScan effectively diagnoses different types of hair loss and is linked to low iron stores in patients.
research Trichoscopic Patterns of Scalp Dermatoses: An Observational Cross-Sectional Study
Trichoscopic patterns often overlap in scalp disorders, so dermatologists need to stay updated.
research Using the Frog Embryonic Epidermis as a Model to Study Desmosome Function During Development
Frog skin cells need the protein desmoplakin for proper development and cell layer formation.
research Endocrinology Update: Hirsutism
Hirsutism was characterized by excessive terminal hair growth in a male pattern on androgen-dependent areas of the female body, and it could occur in both men and women. The condition was commonly associated with polycystic ovary syndrome, idiopathic hyperandrogenemia, and other endocrine disorders. Diagnostic guidelines primarily focused on premenopausal women, but evaluations for underlying endocrinopathies in postmenopausal women and men were also necessary. Management strategies included eliminating causative drugs, assessing hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis dysregulation, and identifying androgen-secreting tumors. Treatment options involved pharmacotherapy with estrogens-progestins, antiandrogens, and other agents, while surgical excision was considered for certain adenomas.
research Down-Regulation of Melanocortin Receptor Signaling Mediated by the Amino Terminus of Agouti Protein in Xenopus Melanophores
Agouti protein affects melanocortin receptors through competitive antagonism and receptor down-regulation.
research Foxn1 Promotes Keratinocyte Differentiation by Regulating the Activity of Protein Kinase C
Foxn1 helps skin cells mature by controlling a specific protein's activity.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is too much hair growth in women like the pattern in men, often caused by high male hormones, and can be treated with hormone control and hair removal methods.
research Hirsutism in Women: Causes, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options
Hirsutism in women is mostly caused by polycystic ovary syndrome and idiopathic hyperandrogenism.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism, excessive hair growth in women, often caused by high androgen levels and polycystic ovary syndrome, can be treated with medication and weight management.
research Aryl Hydrocarbon Receptor Overexpression in Miniaturized Follicles in Female Pattern Hair Loss
Aryl hydrocarbon receptor overexpression found in miniaturized hair follicles in female hair loss.
research Hirsutism
Hirsutism is often caused by high male hormone levels and can be treated with lifestyle changes and medications.
research Human Epidermal Transglutaminase: Enzyme Crucial for Epidermal Terminal Differentiation
The study from 1983 focused on human epidermal transglutaminase, an enzyme crucial for epidermal terminal differentiation. It required calcium or strontium and a free sulfhydryl group, similar to liver transglutaminase, but unlike plasma transglutaminase, it did not need proteolytic activation. The enzyme's activity increased significantly after treatment with organic solvents, heat, and chaotropic reagents, although these treatments did not change its molecular weight or immunologic properties. The research aimed to develop monoclonal antibodies for detailed structural analysis and to explore safe methods for modulating the enzyme's function in human epidermal diseases.
research Treatment of Hirsutism
Hirsutism can be treated with medications or hair removal methods, tailored to each person.
research Male Pattern Alopecia Regrowth Following Topical Fluorouracil Therapy
A man regrew hair after using a 2% fluorouracil treatment on his scalp.
research Male Pattern Alopecia Regrowth Following Topical Fluorouracil Therapy
A man regrew hair after using a specific cream for skin treatment.
research The Structure and Organization of Lanceolate Mechanosensory Complexes at Mouse Hair Follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Alopecia Areata Treated With Topical Minoxidil
Minoxidil can help regrow hair in alopecia areata patients.
research Topical Tretinoin for Hair Growth Promotion
Tretinoin may help hair growth and works better when combined with minoxidil.
research Ectopic Expression of the Nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
