Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Disorders of hair in children
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis and understanding the type of hair disorder are crucial for treating hair loss in children.
research p53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Hair Loss in Children
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of hair loss in children is crucial due to limited treatment options and the condition's psychological impact.
research Promotion of Hair Growth by Conditioned Medium from Extracellular Matrix/Stromal Vascular Fraction Gel in C57BL/6 Mice
A substance from a specific gel helped to grow hair effectively in mice, suggesting it could potentially be used to treat hair loss in humans.
research Alternative Medicine for Hair Loss
Some natural remedies may help with hair regrowth, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Hair and Scalp Changes in Cutaneous and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Hair loss is common in lupus patients and can be permanent or reversible, depending on the type, with various treatments available.
research Revising the role of the androgen receptor in breast cancer
The document concludes that targeting the androgen receptor may be a promising breast cancer treatment, especially for certain types.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Hair Shaft Dysplasias
Hair shaft dysplasias are abnormal hair conditions that can be inherited or acquired and may signal other health issues, with limited treatment options available.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Ignite Keratin Production in Hair Follicles by Inhibiting the Pentose Phosphate Pathway and Amino Acid Oxidation
Annurca apple extract promotes hair growth by changing hair follicle metabolism to boost keratin production.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Mycophenolate Antagonizes IFN-γ-Induced Catagen-Like Changes via β-Catenin Activation in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Follicles
Mycophenolate helps reverse hair loss effects caused by IFN-γ by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Diseases of the Hair and Nails
Stress, nutritional issues, and chronic diseases can cause hair loss, and nail changes may signal internal diseases; treatment focuses on the underlying cause.
research Cognitive testing of a survey instrument for self-assessed menstrual cycle characteristics and androgen excess
The survey helps identify menstrual irregularities and excess male hormones, aiming to detect conditions like Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Evaluating the Role of Thyroid Stimulating Hormone and Ferritin Levels with Hair Loss among Patients with COVID-19: Case-Control Study
Thyroid function may influence hair loss after COVID-19.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
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 Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Hair loss and its management in children
The document concludes that early diagnosis and a comprehensive treatment plan are crucial for managing hair loss in children, with a focus on both medical and psychological support.
research Molecular biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Effects of a new mild shampoo for preventing hair loss in Asian by a simple hand-held phototrichogram technique
The new mild shampoo helped prevent hair loss in the subjects.
research A Murine Model for Inducing and Manipulating Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen): Effects of Dexamethasone and Cyclosporin A
Dexamethasone speeds up hair loss in mice, while cyclosporin A slows it down.
research Dermatoscopy of hair shaft disorders
Dermatoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders and can help choose samples for more detailed analysis.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities – Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
