research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research Beau lines and telogen effluvium following aluminium phosphide poisoning.
Aluminum phosphide poisoning can cause horizontal nail grooves and hair loss.
research The effects of epilation and hormones on the activity of rat hair follicles
Epilation doesn't affect rat hair growth; thyroxine speeds it up, while estradiol slows it down.
research Sparse hair in a female toddler
Iron supplements may reverse premature graying in iron-deficient individuals; ingrown nails are common in diabetics with certain risk factors; topical finasteride may reduce scalp DHT as effectively as oral finasteride; monilethrix treatment is challenging but some medications can help.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research Paradoxical Effect After IPL Photoepilation
IPL can cause unexpected hair growth in nearby untreated areas.
research 1 The regulatory biology of the human pilosebaceous unit
Scientists now better understand how human hair growth is controlled, including the roles of specific genes and proteins.
research Monilethrix in pattern distribution in siblings: Diagnosis by trichoscopy
Trichoscopy can diagnose monilethrix, a genetic hair defect causing hair thinning and loss.
research Moniletherix
Monilethrix causes short, fragile hair with no specific treatment available.
research T-cell “induced-self” MHC class I/peptide complexes may enable “de novo” tolerance induction to neo-antigens occurring outside of the thymus
Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.
research The hair follicle enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research LB1672 Senescent melanocytes in nevus skin stimulate hair growth
Senescent melanocytes in nevus skin boost hair growth.
research De novo mutations in monilethrix
Specific keratin gene mutations can cause monilethrix.
research Scalp hair parameter changes in transgender individuals commencing gender-affirming hormone therapy: A 24-week prospective observational study
Feminizing hormone therapy increases hair counts and improves hair-related quality of life, while masculinizing therapy may reduce large terminal hairs.
research `Cyclic alopecia' inMsx2mutants: defects in hair cycling and hair shaft differentiation
Msx2-deficient mice experience irregular hair growth and loss due to disrupted hair cycle phases.
research Unique Presentations of Female Pattern Hair Loss Evident in Asian and Black Women
Hair loss patterns in Asian and Black women are unique and may affect treatment.
research Exploration of potential lipid biomarkers for premature canities by UPLC‐QTOF‐MS analyses of hair follicle roots
Researchers found that certain lipids, especially vitamin D3, are lower in prematurely grey hair than in pigmented hair.
research Hair casts (pseudonits)
The girl had harmless hair casts, not lice.
research The Hair Follicle
Dogs could be good models for studying human hair growth and hair loss.
research Gray Hair: From Preventive to Treatment
Gray hair can potentially be managed or reversed with treatments that boost melanin production and address nutritional deficiencies.
research TRASER: Acute phase vascular and follicular changes
TRASER effectively targets blood vessels and hair follicles for potential use in vascular and hair removal treatments.
research The premature catagen induced by estrogen was accompanied with advance apoptosis of precortex cells.
Estrogen speeds up hair follicle cell death, causing early hair growth cycle changes, but only if a specific receptor is present.
research Splitting Hairs: Evaluating the Origin of Human Nakedness
Humans likely became hairless to better regulate body temperature.
research A new path in defining light parameters for hair growth: Discovery and modulation of photoreceptors in human hair follicle
Blue light promotes hair growth by interacting with specific receptors in hair follicles.
research 881 Ionizing radiation triggers dedifferentiation of outer root sheath cells into stem cell-like progenitors for hair follicle regeneration
research De novo formation and ultra-structural characterization of a fiber-producing human hair follicle equivalent in vitro
Scientists recreated human hair follicles in the lab that can grow hair.
research Review of human hair optical properties in possible relation to melanoma development
Certain types of human hair might help ultraviolet rays reach and damage cells, possibly leading to melanoma.
research A Novel Epithelial Keratin, hK6irs1, is Expressed Differentially in All Layers of the Inner Root Sheath, Including Specialized Huxley Cells (Flügelzellen) of the Human Hair Follicle
A new keratin, hK6irs1, is found in all layers of the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Epilation with a long-pulse 1064nm Nd:YAG laser in facial hirsutism
The Nd:YAG laser safely reduces facial hair and slows regrowth, with patient satisfaction.
