research The Efficacy and Safety of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Network Meta-Analysis and Benefit–Risk Assessment of Finasteride and Dutasteride
Finasteride and dutasteride effectively treat hair loss, but may cause side effects like sexual dysfunction and depression.
research Medical Treatment of Hirsutism
The conclusion is that the best initial treatment for hirsutism is usually oral contraceptives, with the addition of antiandrogens or insulin sensitizers if needed, and topical eflornithine or laser treatments as supplementary options.
research Changes in Hair Weight in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia After Treatment with Finasteride (1 mg Daily): Three- and Four-Year Results
Finasteride increases hair weight and count in men with hair loss, with best results after four years.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Prostaglandin Metabolism in Human Hair Follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Lamins in Development, Tissue Maintenance, and Stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor Beta 2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Developing After Hair Transplantation for Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair transplant destroyed by lichen planopilaris.
research Hirsutism: A Psychological Analysis
Women with excess body hair feel psychological distress influenced by societal beauty standards, but distress isn't directly linked to the amount of hair.
research How Should Postmenopausal Androgen Excess Be Evaluated?
Evaluate postmenopausal women with high androgen levels using medical history, physical exams, lab tests, and imaging to manage health risks.
research Direct Effects of Minoxidil on Epidermal Cells in Culture
Minoxidil promotes hair growth by increasing cell division and DNA synthesis.
research Epidermal Stem Cells: Practical Perspectives and Potential Uses
Epidermal stem cells could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Treatment of MSCs with Wnt1a-Conditioned Medium Activates DP Cells and Promotes Hair Follicle Regrowth
Wnt1a-conditioned medium from stem cells helps activate cells important for hair growth and can promote hair regrowth.
research The Majority of Multipotent Epidermal Stem Cells Do Not Protect Their Genome by Asymmetrical Chromosome Segregation
Most hair follicle stem cells do not protect their DNA by dividing it unevenly.
research Peroxisome Proliferator-Activated Receptors (PPARs) and PPAR Agonists: The Future in Dermatology Therapeutics?
PPAR agonists show promise for skin conditions but need more research before being a main treatment.
research The Genetics of Hair Shaft Disorders
The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.
research Male Pattern Hair Loss: Current Understanding
Genetics and hormones cause hair loss; finasteride treats it safely.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Hair and Systemic Disease
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Gene Expression During Drosophila Wing Morphogenesis and Differentiation
Key genes are crucial for Drosophila wing development and could be insecticide targets.
research Matriptase Activation and Shedding with HAI-1 Induced by Steroid Sex Hormones in Human Prostate Cancer Cells, but Not in Breast Cancer Cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgens
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
research Multi-Therapies in Androgenetic Alopecia: Review and Clinical Experiences
Multiple treatments work best for hair loss.
research Management of Hirsutism
Antiandrogens, particularly flutamide and CPA, are most effective for treating hirsutism, with long-term use needed for best results.
research Chronic Telogen Effluvium: A Study of 5 Patients Over 7 Years
Most patients with chronic hair shedding did not progress to permanent hair loss, and one showed improvement with treatment.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Significance of the Polyglutamine Tract Polymorphism in the Androgen Receptor
