research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research Control of hair growth and follicle size by VEGF-mediated angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Adipocyte Lineage Cells Contribute to the Skin Stem Cell Niche to Drive Hair Cycling
Fat-related cells are important for initiating hair growth.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research Conditional telomerase induction causes proliferation of hair follicle stem cells
Activating TERT in mice skin boosts hair growth by waking up hair follicle stem cells.
research Skin melanocytes: biology and development
The paper concludes that understanding melanocyte development can help in insights into skin diseases and melanoma diversity.
research Minoxidil: mechanisms of action on hair growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Human hair growth in vitro
Human hair follicles can grow in a lab setting.
research The hair cycle
The document concludes that the hair cycle is a complex process involving growth, regression, and rest phases, regulated by various molecular signals.
research Treatment of Hair Loss
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair loss, but continued research is needed for better treatments.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Nestin expression in hair follicle sheath progenitor cells
Nestin is found in hair follicle progenitor cells, linking them to neural stem cells.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Molecular Control of Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions During Hair Follicle Cycling
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.
research Mucocutaneous reactions to chemotherapy
Chemotherapy can cause various skin reactions, with hair loss being the most common, and proper diagnosis and treatment of these reactions are important.
research Stimulation of ectodermal organ development by Ectodysplasin-A1
Ectodysplasin-A1 is crucial for developing hair, teeth, and glands.
research Critical Stages of Hair Development and Pigmentation in the Mouse
Hair growth and pigmentation in mice involve specific stages crucial for research.
research Chronic telogen effluvium: Increased scalp hair shedding in middle-aged women
Middle-aged women with chronic telogen effluvium experience increased hair shedding but usually don't get significantly thinner hair.
research Induction of the hair growth phase in postnatal mice by localized transient expression of Sonic hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research Female pattern hair loss
Hair loss in women is genetic, diagnosed by examination and biopsy, and treated with minoxidil, finasteride, or transplantation.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
research Pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Nascent blood vessels in the skin arise from nestin-expressing hair-follicle cells
Hair follicle cells can create new blood vessels in the skin.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Minoxidil upregulates the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in human hair dermal papilla cells
Minoxidil boosts growth factor in hair cells, potentially promoting hair growth.
research Hair Follicle Dermal Stem Cells Regenerate the Dermal Sheath, Repopulate the Dermal Papilla, and Modulate Hair Type
Hair follicle dermal stem cells are key for regenerating parts of the hair follicle and determining hair type.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Basal cell carcinomas in mice arise from hair follicle stem cells and multiple epithelial progenitor populations
Basal cell carcinomas in mice can start from hair follicle stem cells and other skin cell types, depending on signaling levels.
