Abstract
The authors studied the thickness of the layers in both normal and bald scalps to determine the effect of aging on baldness. In non-bald subjects, 1) each scalp layer changes with aging; 2) the most noticeable changes are in the layers that contain hair; 3) the condition of the galea is influenced by aging. In bald subjects, 1) in early male pattern alopecia no changes occur in scalp thickness; 2) in advanced baldness, all skin layers except the galea exhibit definite thinning.
Effectiveness of Finasteride on Patients with Male Pattern Baldness Who Have Different Androgen Receptor Gene Polymorphism
Nagaoki Wakisaka, Yuh-ichi Taira, Masahiro Ishikawa, Yoshio Nakamizo, Kazuhiro Kobayashi, Masashi Uwabu, Yasutaka Fukuda, Yasuyuki Taguchi, Takanori Hama, Masaya Kawakami
SUMMARY: Finasteride is not necessarily effective on all of the male pattern baldness (male pattern baldness) patients. To know any factor which correlates with the effectiveness of
CONTEXT: Most male pattern baldness (male pattern baldness) patients have an androgen-dependent trait, although it is thought to be under the control of multiple genes, such as genes for androgen receptor (AR), insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), and...

Targeted Expression of Human Vitamin D Receptor in the Skin Promotes the Initiation of the Postnatal Hair Follicle Cycle and Rescues the Alopecia in Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Juan Kong, Xiao Jian Li, Donna Gavin, Yulei Jiang, Yan Chun Li
SUMMARY: Alopecia is a predominant feature of vitamin D receptor inactivation in mice and humans. To determine the role of vitamin D receptor in the
CONTEXT: ...of the VDR gene in mice resulted in hypocalcemia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, osteomalacia, rickets, and alopecia (Li et al, 1997;Yoshizawa et al, 1997), phenotypes closely resembling the symptoms of patients with hereditary...

Topical Estrogen Accelerates Hair Regrowth in Mice After Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia by Favoring the Dystrophic Catagen Response Pathway to Damage
Ulrich Ohnemus, Murat ünalan, Bori Handjiski, Ralf Paus
SUMMARY: Estrogen receptor ligands are important modulators of skin physiology and are involved in the control of normal hair follicle cycling. Here, we have studied
CONTEXT: ...examined in this study, the effects of exogenous ER ligands on pathologic HF-cycling in mice. Chemotherapy-induced alopecia (CIA) was selected as a model, since it allows analysis of the damage response of the HF and how it is...
