Understanding Exosomes in Hair Regeneration

open access: yesPeriodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Alopecia is a prevalent condition correlated with significant psychosocial challenges, while contemporary treatments exhibit variable efficacy, require extended use, and may cause adverse effects. This review aimed to comprehensively assess exosome‐mediated interventions as a novel cell‐free regenerative approach for hair ...

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on cognitive performance, cerebrovascular function, sleep and biomarkers of neurodegeneration in older adults

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing is associated with cognitive decline and increased risk of developing neurodegenerative disease. Repeated passive heating, using hot water immersion (HWI), may improve cognitive performance via improved cerebral oxygenation, but this is yet to be examined in older adults.

Male androgenetic alopecia treated with finasteride

open access: yes, 2016
Background Dihydrotestosterone causes micronization of scalp hair follicles, resulting in androgenetic alopecia. Finasteride inhibits type II 5α-reductase, thereby, decreasing the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone. Objective To determine

Efficacy of finasteride for treating patients with androgenetic alopecia who are pileous in other areas: A pilot study in Japan

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2014
Background: Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) involves androgen-dependent hair loss and finasteride is an established treatment for the disease. However, reports of the influence of finasteride on hair growth in other areas of the body are lacking.

Effect of repeated hot water immersion on muscle strength, power, function and physical activity in healthy older adults: A randomised crossover trial

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ageing leads to an increased prevalence of sarcopenia and frailty, characterised by progressive declines in muscle strength, power and function and reduced physical activity. Hot water immersion (HWI) could potentially improve muscle function, but this is yet to be explored in older adults.

The therapeutic effect of finasteride on fibroblasts.

open access: yes, 2017
(A) Finasteride induced cell death of fibroblasts. (B) Finasteride repressed the transcription of IGF-1 mRNA in fibroblasts in epithelia-fibroblasts co-culture system. (C) The level of IGF-1 protein in the medium of co-culture system was decreased in the

The postfinasteride syndrome; an overview

open access: yesJournal of Mind and Medical Sciences, 2016
As a 5-α reductase inhibitor, Finasteride has proven effective in ameliorating two conditions documented to be androgen dependent, namely male androgenic alopecia and benign prostatic hyperplasia. Therapeutic results are maintained as long as the drug is

The conducting airways before and after gender‐affirming hormone therapy in transgender individuals

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract On average, females have smaller airways than males. The largest discrepancy in airway size occurs during puberty, when endogenous sex hormone concentrations diverge between males and females. Transgender individuals often use gender‐affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) to align physical characteristics with gender identity.

A comparison between finasteride, flutamide, and finasteride plus flutamide combination in the treatment of hirsutism

open access: yes, 2009
To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety of the finasteride (5 mg/day) plus flutamide (125 mg/day) combination therapy in unselected women with hirsutism, 44 women were involved in the study. The effects of such combination treatment have not been
