Testosterone metabolism in the skin. A review of its function in androgenetic alopecia, acne vulgaris, and idiopathic hirsutism including recent studies with antiandrogens.
Price VH.
Current concepts of testosterone metabolism in the human skin are reviewed, and the role of dihydrotestosterone in the pathophysiology of androgenetic alopecia, acne vulgaris, and idiopathic hirsutism is discussed. The hypothesis is submitted that a temporary, increased dihydrotestosterone formation at specific skin target sites at different ages causes the normal development of certain sexual characteristics, as well as the androgen-dependent skin disorders. Future treatment of these conditions is discussed in light of recent studies with antiandrogens.

[Experimental studies on seborrheic alopecia. II. Determination of the structural differences between testosterone transported cytosol protein of the bald and hairy areas]
[Article in Spanish]
Bassas E.
By previous isolation of the testosterone transport cytosol protein in bald and hairy areas in patients with male pattern baldness, the author studies the differences concerning the protein citosol-testosterone complex, after fixation by means of labelled testosterone and electrophoresis, measuring the corresponding radioactivity curves. The results show that there are important structural differences for the cytosol protein between the hairy and bald regions.

Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic syndrome in a child with an autoimmune phenotype.
Hoffman WH, Helman SW, Sekul E, Carroll JE, Vega RA.
Section of Pediatric Endocrinology, Department of Pediatrics, Medical College of Georgia, Augusta, Georgia.
We report on a child with a family history of autoimmune defects, who presented at the age of 3(1/2) years with alopecia and Graves disease. He subsequently developed vitiligo and psoriasis. At 9(1/2) years, he developed an autoimmune form of Lambert-Eaton Myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) with a significant elevation of glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) autoantibodies. Shortly thereafter he developed chronic urticaria. HLA associations were present for Graves disease, vitiligo, psoriasis, and IgA deficiency. There was also evidence of autoimmunity involving the pancreatic islet cells and gastric parietal cells. 2003 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

and start hair growth.
Numerous anecdotal cases have demonstrated that the herbal formula based on the Chinese herbs improves the situation of the age-related hair thinning and hair loss for a significant fraction of people taking it regularly. It is unknown how Hair Million herbs stop hair loss, and promote hair growth due to the lack of scientific research and placebo controlled clinical trials.
