research The Thinning Top: Why Older People Have Less Hair
Old people have less hair because their hair follicles don't regenerate as well, not because of fewer stem cells, and a protein called follistatin might help reactivate hair growth.
research Delivery of Tissue-Targeted Scalpels: Opportunities and Challenges for In Vivo CRISPR/Cas-Based Genome Editing
Using CRISPR for gene editing in the body is promising but needs better delivery methods to be more efficient and specific.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Cardiovascular Disease: A Premature Association?
While PCOS might increase the risk of heart disease, there's not strong evidence to prove it causes earlier heart problems.
research Author Response: Interplay of Opposing Fate Choices Stalls Oncogenic Growth in Murine Skin Epithelium
The balance between cell renewal and differentiation controls the growth of cancerous cells in mouse skin.
research Generation of iPS-Derived Model Cells for Analyses of Hair Shaft Differentiation
Researchers created a mouse cell line to study hair growth and test hair growth drugs.
research In Human Skin, UVB Initiates Early Induction of IL-10 Over IL-12 Preferentially in the Expanding Dermal Monocytic/Macrophagic Population
UVB exposure in human skin causes macrophages to produce more IL-10 and less IL-12, leading to immunosuppression.
research Optical Coherence Tomography as a Minimally Invasive Androgenic Alopecia Diagnostic Platform
OCT can effectively diagnose different stages of hair loss non-invasively.
research Activation of Astrocytes In Vitro by Macrophages Polarized with Keratin Biomaterial Treatment
Keratin treatment reduces astrocyte reactivity and inflammation.
research A Curvilinear Relationship Between Hair Loss, Mental Rotation, and Neuroticism: A Possible Influence of Sustained Dihydrotestosterone Production

research Postmenopausal Hyperandrogenism Due to Ovarian Hyperthecosis
A woman's high testosterone levels and related symptoms improved after ovary removal surgery.
research Adverse Health Effects of Androgen Use
Using anabolic androgenic steroids can cause serious, lasting health problems in many parts of the body.
research Rhytidectomy: Evolution, Techniques, Considerations, and Complications
Facelift surgery has evolved to focus on natural results and safety, with patient selection and postoperative care being key to success.
research Could Scalp Pain Be a Type of Unclassified Headache?
Scalp pain should be classified as a type of headache.

A new 3D culture system helps grow and study mouse skin stem cells for a long time.
research Multimodal Imaging of Hair Follicle Bulge-Derived Stem Cells in a Mouse Model of Traumatic Brain Injury
Hair follicle stem cells might help treat traumatic brain injury.
research WWOX Deficiency Causes Downregulation of Prosurvival ERK Signaling and Abnormal Homeostatic Responses in Mouse Skin
WWOX deficiency in mice causes skin and fat tissue problems due to disrupted cell survival signals.
research Molecular Pathology of Skin Adnexal Tumors
New markers and pathways have been found in skin tumors, helping better understand and diagnose them.
research Study of the Expression of Androgen, Estrogen, and Progesterone Receptors in Patients With Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
The study suggests a possible increase in androgen receptors in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Cardiac and Medullary Neuroinflammatory Pathways Trigger Androgenic Incitement of Cardiovascular Sequels of Endotoxemia in Rats
Testosterone increases heart and blood pressure issues in rats with endotoxemia, and stopping testosterone production can reduce these problems.
research Anti-Androgens: Their Use in Dermatology
Cyproterone acetate with ethynyl estradiol significantly improved acne and seborrhea in women, but was less effective for hair loss and excessive hair growth.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: Increasing Cases and Treatment Options
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a scarring hair loss condition mainly affecting older women, with no known cause and treatments that may help stabilize hair loss.
research Introduction
The conclusion is that it's currently unclear if certain rare medical conditions are caused by specific factors due to mostly observational data.
research Abstract P1-09-32: A Novel Candidate for Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia Through Local Modulation of Apoptosis and Inflammation
A new treatment may prevent hair loss from chemotherapy by normalizing scalp cell death and reducing inflammation.
research Cytoskeletal Regulation of Dermal Regeneration
Targeting the actin cytoskeleton could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
