科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 三十秒科學–壓力大導致毛髮生長速度減慢

腎上腺(Adrenal gland)，故名思義就是位於腎臟上方的腺體。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU7s0OSbACy
它有著釋放出各種荷爾蒙的功能，例如皮質醇(Corticosterone)、腎上腺素(Adrenaline)及醛固酮 (Aldosterone)等等。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwL4ftGarFR

（圖2）研究發現，被切除腎上腺的老鼠(ADX)，其生長毛髮的速度比正常老鼠(Sham)的為快。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo9s1Cnlh7T

從圖中可見，ADX老鼠在剃毛後16日已經差不多長滿毛髮，而Sham老鼠在40日後還是接近沒有生長毛髮似的。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMkYW8FUct
793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77aHbAnWlY
因著腎上腺有著產生荷爾蒙的功能，科學家於是量度老鼠體內的荷爾蒙，並發現ADX老鼠體內的皮質醇(Corticosterone)明顯下降，但腎上腺素(Adrenaline)含量則沒有大變化。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNvs2sp7o5t

（圖3）從圖中可見，皮質醇的存在是阻止毛髮生長的主因。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGkHOdB8I53

非常重要的是，皮質醇短暫性高企是不會對毛髮生長速度有所影響，皮質醇長期的存在才會有壓抑作用。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSYvYkLxhv
793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZIQsppKPn
（圖4）遇上壓力時，皮質醇含量便會上升，從圖中可見壓力對老鼠毛髮生長速度的影響;793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdu00iuvNPC
除壓力外，年紀大亦會導致皮質醇含量上升。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmSHYbWjjf

腎上腺被切除後，受壓對毛髮生長速度並無大影響。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV8x6SYsMrw

（圖5）上集提及過，頭髮生長分成3個階段。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhocPphBd6Q
研究發現，Sham老鼠及ADX老鼠的anagen及catagen時域並無大分別，唯獨是正常老鼠的telogan階段會持續上升，而ADX老鼠則既短暫而又沒有大變化。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY0blnIUfMH
793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzk8hKvvZC
793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxXurw2P4uc
16個月的時段裡，ADX老鼠已經能完成10次毛髮3階段，而Sham老鼠僅能完成3次。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqNV5ITU2RJ

雖然老鼠毛髮生長的理論未必能百分百套用到心類之中，但作者在文中已深入指出皮質醇是依靠影響毛髮幹細胞周遭的細胞來影響毛髮生長。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGn92K1zMKZ

或許日後可以製造出藥物來針對其機制，解決人類脫髮的煩惱。793Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiJZFfYLXS
