research Immunology of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Effect of minoxidil on pre- and postconfluent keratinocytes
Minoxidil prolongs cell life, slows aging, and may produce longer hairs.
research Pohl-Pinkus constrictions of hair following chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease
Chemotherapy caused the patient's hair to have alternating thick and thin segments.
research 609 Topical Sandalore®, a specific OR2AT4-stimulating odorant, ameliorates female telogen effluvium: Randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial
Sandalore®, a synthetic scent, improved hair loss and satisfaction in women with telogen effluvium.
research Hair Loss and Hirsutism Management
Low-level light therapy, possibly combined with other treatments, may become a leading hair loss treatment, while hirsutism often worsens with age and lacks preventive options.
research Topical botanical extract for management of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
A botanical extract may help manage hair loss from chemotherapy by preventing cell death in hair follicles.
research 863 Molecular basis of hair follicle donor dominance in androgenetic alopecia and sexual dimorphism of the skin
Hair loss patterns differ between males and females due to 5 master regulators and JAK-STAT signaling affects hair growth.
research Phototrichogram Analysis of Japanese Female Subjects with Chronic Diffuse Hair Loss
Phototrichogram and hair diameter measurements are effective, noninvasive ways to assess hair growth and detect early hair loss, with the most common pattern being reduced hair density.
research Evaluation of biophysical skin parameters and hair changes in patients with acne vulgaris treated with isotretinoin, and the effect of biotin use on these parameters
Biotin supplementation during isotretinoin treatment for acne may help maintain skin hydration and improve hair growth.
research Diffuser Haarausfall und klinische Endokrinologie: Neue Erkenntnisse
Hormones significantly affect hair growth and loss, with potential for new treatments.
research Recipient-Site Influence in Hair Transplantation
The place where hair is transplanted can change its growth rate and length but not its thickness.
research Minoxidil: mechanisms of action on hair growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research Temporary hair removal by low fluence photoepilation: Histological study on biopsies and cultured human hair follicles
Low fluence photoepilation temporarily removes hair by targeting the hair follicle's pigmented area without severe damage.
research 17α‐estradiol induces aromatase activity in intact human anagen hair follicles ex vivo
17α-estradiol boosts aromatase activity in female hair follicles, potentially helping with hair loss.
research Topical application of Polygonum multiflorum extract induces hair growth of resting hair follicles through upregulating Shh and β-catenin expression in C57BL/6 mice
Polygonum multiflorum extract helps grow hair by activating certain hair growth signals in mice.
research Hair cycle-specific expression of versican in human hair follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research Changes in hair weight in men with androgenetic alopecia after treatment with finasteride (1 mg daily): Three- and 4-year results
Finasteride increases hair weight and count in men with hair loss, with best results after four years.
research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research Alopecia areata incognita: A Hypothesis
Alopecia areata may appear differently depending on the individual's type of hair loss and scalp condition.
research No Association between Serum Ferritin Levels >10 μg/l and Hair Loss Activity in Women
Higher iron levels in the blood are not linked to increased hair loss in women.
research A comparison of vertical versus transverse sections in the evaluation of alopecia biopsy specimens
Using both vertical and transverse sections gives a better diagnosis of alopecia than using one method alone.
research The Effect of Topical Minoxidil on Hair Follicular Cycles of Rats
Minoxidil speeds up hair growth in rats without prolonging growth phase.
research Fractional Photothermolysis Laser Treatment of Male Pattern Hair Loss
Laser treatment can stimulate hair growth for male pattern hair loss.
research Estrogens and Human Scalp Hair Growth—Still More Questions than Answers
The effects of estrogen on human hair growth are unclear and need more research.
research Effect of Adenovirus-Mediated Expression of Sonic Hedgehog Gene on Hair Regrowth in Mice With Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.
research Cyclical Changes in Rat Vibrissa Follicles Maintained In Vitro
Rat vibrissa follicles are useful for studying hair growth cycles, especially the transition from pro-anagen to anagen.
research Human hair follicles operate an internal Cori cycle and modulate their growth via glycogen phosphorylase
Inhibiting glycogen metabolism can promote hair growth.
research Peppermint Oil Promotes Hair Growth without Toxic Signs
Peppermint oil can effectively promote hair growth without being toxic.
research HAIR DISEASES
Most hair loss can be diagnosed with patient history and physical exam, and a few common types make up most cases.
