research Estrogens and the hair follicle. Ostrogene und der Haarfollikel
Estrogens generally inhibit hair growth and improve skin quality, but their exact effects on hair follicles are complex and not fully understood.
research Integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses of human scalp identify gene-regulatory programs and critical cell types for hair and skin diseases
research A Recurrent Intragenic Deletion in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlies Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis
A gene deletion in DSG4 causes sparse hair in some Pakistani families.
research Topical minoxidil in early androgenetic alopecia
Using minoxidil on balding scalps can stimulate hair regrowth and increase blood flow. It's an effective treatment for early hair loss.
research Morphological Approach to Hair Disorders
Accurate clinical, histological, and genetic methods are key for understanding and treating hair disorders.
research MOUSE MODELS FOR THE STUDY OF HUMAN HAIR LOSS
Mice are useful for researching human hair loss and testing treatments, despite some differences between species.
research Dihydrotestosterone inhibits hair growth in mice by inhibiting insulin-like growth factor-I production in dermal papillae
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) stops hair growth in mice by lowering a growth factor important for hair.
research Multifactorial Classification of Male and Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Different factors help diagnose and treat hair loss accurately.
research Ectodysplasin research—Where to next?
Future research on ectodysplasin should explore its role in diseases, stem cells, and evolution, and continue developing treatments for genetic disorders like hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research The Cross-section Trichometer: A New Device for Measuring Hair Quantity, Hair Loss, and Hair Growth
The Cross-section Trichometer is a new tool that can measure hair quantity and detect hair loss and growth.
research Medicalisation, pharmaceutical promotion and the Internet: a critical multimodal discourse analysis of hair loss websites
Commercial hair loss websites promote Propecia by making men feel insecure about baldness and suggesting it's a medical issue needing treatment.
research Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes During a Wool Follicle Growth Cycle Induced by Prolactin
Certain genes are linked to wool follicle structure and function, but not hair cycle regulation.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research Differences in reproductive toxicology between alopecia drugs: an analysis on adverse events among female and male cases
Finasteride has a higher risk of reproductive side effects than minoxidil.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Modern hair restoration surgery
Hair restoration surgery techniques have evolved, with focus on patient selection and realistic goals, and future advancements may include cloning and gene therapy.
research Contrast enhanced phototrichogram pinpoints scalp hair changes in androgen sensitive areas of male androgenetic alopecia
CE-PTG detects early hair follicle issues in balding areas, helping measure male hair loss.
research The Contribution of Endogenous and Exogenous Factors to Female Alopecia
Both genetic and lifestyle factors significantly affect female hair loss.
research An epidemiological study of androgenic alopecia in 3114 Korean patients
Smoking and drinking worsened hair loss in men with genetic hair loss, while eating and sleeping habits didn't; genetics played a bigger role than environment in hair loss.
research Characterization of minoxidil/hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complex in aqueous alginate gel useful for alopecia management: Efficacy evaluation in male rat
The gel made of minoxidil and hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin improves hair growth and is good for long-term use.
research The endocrinology of baldness
Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Medical management of male pattern hair loss
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow or halt hair loss, but may have side effects.
research An investigation of crosstalk between Wnt/β-catenin and transforming growth factor-β signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Wnt/β-catenin and TGF-β pathways affect hair loss, and activating Wnt/β-catenin could be a potential treatment.
research Keratinocytes maintain compartmentalization between dermal papilla and fibroblasts in 3D heterotypic tri‐cultures
Keratinocytes help keep hair follicle cells and skin cells separate in 3D cultures, which is important for hair growth research.
research Restoration of hair-inductive activity of cultured human follicular keratinocytes by co-culturing with dermal papilla cells
Growing hair cells with dermal cells can potentially treat hair loss.
research Premature Graying, Balding, and Low Bone Mineral Density in Older Women and Men
Balding men had lower bone density, while balding women had higher hip bone density.
research Androgen Receptor Copy Number Variation and Androgenetic Alopecia: A Case-Control Study
No clear link between androgen receptor variation and hair loss, but more research needed.
research Single–Follicular-Unit Hair Transplantation to Correct Cleft Lip Moustache Alopecia
Hair transplant surgery successfully restored a boy's moustache hair on a cleft lip scar, with natural-looking results and patient satisfaction.
research Is there a role for 5α‐reductase inhibitors in transgender individuals?
5α-reductase inhibitors like finasteride may not be effective or safe for transgender individuals, and more research is needed.
