Hair Restoration in Androgenetic Alopecia: Looking Beyond Minoxidil, Finasteride and Hair Transplantation

Abstract: Patterned hair loss (PHL) is one of the most commonly encountered problems for dermatologists. PHL at an early age is often cosmetically unacceptable, tends to be persistent and inflicts a profound negative impact on one's quality of life. Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) affects both genders in a distinctive pattern of hair loss from the scalp (MPHL for male PHL and FPHL or female PHL). The etiopathogenesis of AGA is complex, so far the major factor emphasized to be involved has been the undesirable androgen metab… Show more

“…Patients affected by glaucoma and receiving PGF2α analogues, claimed side effects such as cutaneous hypertrichosis and hyperpigmentation of eyelashes [ 32 ]. PGF2α analogues latanoprost and bimatoprost are being tested in clinical trials for Patterned Hair Loss and Androgenic Alopecia and are showing promising results [ 4 , 31 ].…”

“…Hair shaft extension is sustained by highly proliferating cells of the hair matrix (HMs). These differentiate into several cell lineages, (among these cells of the outer (ORS) and inner (IRS) root sheaths) all differently specialized in the production and modification of hair keratins [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ].…”

“…Anagen, the phase when hair shaft extension occurs, can last years in humans and is fueled by hair matrix cells (HMs) located in the hair bulb (HB). These highly proliferating cells are stimulated by the dermal papillas (DP) to differentiate into different lineages of cell including the outer (ORS) and inner (IRS) root sheaths, all differently involved in the production, deposition, protection and hardening of keratins [ 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ].…”

“…Patterned hair loss (PHL) affects around 50% of the adult population worldwide. Independent of age and gender, this condition exerts a profound negative impact on some people’s quality of life [ 4 ] and, especially when occurring at an early age, it is frequently associated to depression [ 5 , 6 ]. During PHL, HFs undergo a premature miniaturization and shorten their permanence in anagen.…”

“…Esta enzima é encontrada naturalmente nos indivíduos e não há correlação com o aumento de sua atividade em pessoas acometidas pela calvície. São os fatores genéticos e/ou hormonais que promovem a apoptose celular e, assim, mais AMPc estaria disponível para a ação da fosfodiesterase (Bansal et al, 2012;Sonthalia, Daulatabad & Tosti, 2016).…”
