research Hair Follicles’ Transit-Amplifying Cells Govern Concurrent Dermal Adipocyte Production Through Sonic Hedgehog
Cells in hair follicles help create fat cells in the skin by releasing a protein called Sonic Hedgehog.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Challenges in Adolescence
Diagnosing and managing PCOS in teens is hard, but early diagnosis and lifestyle changes are key, and more research is needed for long-term health.
research Pubertal Hormones Increase Hippocampal Expression of α4βδ GABAA Receptors
Hormones during puberty increase certain receptors in the brain, and this change is influenced by estrogen levels.

research Maintenance of Optimized Hair Growth from Viable Terminal Scalp Hair Follicles at Baseline with Oral Finasteride in Male Pattern Hair Loss and First Evidence of a Drug Dependency and a Post-Finasteride Rebound Effect
Finasteride helps hair growth but stopping it causes faster hair loss.
research Skin Cancers and Their Risk Factors in Older Persons: A Population-Based Study
Older men and those with a history of skin cancer have a higher risk of getting skin cancer again.
research Transgender and Migraine: Impact of Hormone Therapy
Hormone therapy may increase migraines in transgender women and decrease them in transgender men; more research is needed on migraine management in transgender individuals.
research Predominant Expression of 5 Alpha-Reductase Type 1 in Pubic Skin from Normal Subjects and Hirsute Patients
The main enzyme found in pubic skin that could be targeted to treat excessive hair growth is 5 alpha-R2.

Saw palmetto may improve urinary symptoms with fewer sexual side effects compared to some medications.
research Finasteride Inhibits the Progesterone-Induced Spike-Wave Discharges in a Genetic Model of Absence Epilepsy
Finasteride blocks progesterone's effect on absence seizures in rats.
research Characterization of BMP2 Gene Expression in Embryonic and Adult Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goat (Capra Hircus) Hair Follicles
The BMP2 gene is more active in the early growth phase of Cashmere goat hair and may affect hair regeneration and textile production.
research Protective Effects of Finasteride Against Testosterone-Induced Calcium Oxalate Crystallization and Crystal-Cell Adhesion
Finasteride helps prevent kidney stones, but side effects need more research.
research Repurposing Steroidogenesis Inhibitors for the Therapy of Neuropsychiatric Disorders: Promises and Caveats
Drugs for hormone-related conditions might help treat mental disorders but could have serious side effects.
research A Preliminary Study of Differentially Expressed Genes in Expanded Skin and Normal Skin: Implications for Adult Skin Regeneration
The study found that expanded skin regenerates similarly to normal skin, with 77 genes playing a role in the process.
research Myocardial NF-κB Activation Is Essential for Zebrafish Heart Regeneration
NF-κB is crucial for zebrafish heart repair, affecting heart cell growth and repair processes.

research Transdifferentiation of Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Red Blood Cells by OCT4
Human hair follicle stem cells can be turned into red blood cells.
research Impairment of Autophagy May Be Associated with Follicular Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia by Inducing Premature Catagen
Impaired autophagy may cause hair loss by triggering early catagen.
research Dihydrotestosterone Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inhibiting Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Production in Dermal Papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Genetic Variation at the MC1R Locus and the Time Since Loss of Human Body Hair
Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.
