research Lymphoid Enhancer-binding Factor-1 (LEF1) Interacts with the DNA-binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor
LEF1 interacts with Vitamin D Receptor, affecting hair follicle regeneration and this could be linked to hair loss conditions.
research Eccrine sweat glands associate with the human hair follicle within a defined compartment of dermal white adipose tissue
Sweat glands and hair follicles are structurally connected within a specific layer of skin fat.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research The advantages of hair follicle pluripotent stem cells over embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells for regenerative medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a practical and ethical option for nerve repair in regenerative medicine.
research Hair Restoration Surgery: The State of the Art
Hair restoration surgery has advanced, focusing on natural results and may improve further with new techniques and therapies.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Three-Dimensional Analysis of Cell Division Orientation in Epidermal Basal Layer Using Intravital Two-Photon Microscopy
Cell division orientation varies by body site and is linked to epidermal thickness and cell density.
research Characterisation of cell cycle arrest and terminal differentiation in a maximally proliferative human epithelial tissue: Lessons from the human hair follicle matrix
CIP/KIP proteins help stop cell division and support hair growth.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Lymphocytic mediated alopecia: histological classification by pattern analysis
Steven Kossard classified lymphocyte-related hair loss into four patterns, each linked to different types of baldness.
research Developing stratified epithelia: lessons from the epidermis and thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Microbiome in the hair follicle of androgenetic alopecia patients
Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Isolation and Characterization of Sweat Gland Myoepithelial Cells from Human Skin
Human sweat glands contain stem cells capable of self-renewal and forming different cell types.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research A pilot split-scalp study of combined fractional radiofrequency microneedling and 5% topical minoxidil in treating male pattern hair loss
Combined microneedling and minoxidil improves hair growth more than minoxidil alone.
research Platelet‐rich plasma on female androgenetic alopecia: Tested on 10 patients
PRP injections increase hair density and diameter in female androgenetic alopecia patients.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Review
Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia's cause is unclear, affects mainly postmenopausal women, and current treatments focus on stopping hair loss rather than regrowth.
research An Intrinsic Oscillation of Gene Networks Inside Hair Follicle Stem Cells: An Additional Layer That Can Modulate Hair Stem Cell Activities
Gene network oscillations inside hair stem cells are key for hair growth regulation and could help treat hair loss.
research Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research An update of the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia: What does the current evidence tell us?
The current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia involves immune, genetic, hormonal factors, and possibly environmental triggers, but more research is needed for effective treatments.
research Cicatricial alopecia
Permanent hair loss from cicatricial alopecia is treated by reducing inflammation and managing symptoms, but regrowth in scarred areas is unlikely.
research Alopecia and platelet-derived therapies
Platelet lysate is more effective than activated autologous platelet-rich plasma or saline in improving hair growth after hair restoration surgery.
research Stem Cells behind the Barrier
Stem cell differentiation is crucial for skin barrier maintenance and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research The TOR–Auxin Connection Upstream of Root Hair Growth
High energy boosts root hair growth in plants, while low energy stops it.
research Deciphering principles of morphogenesis from temporal and spatial patterns on the integument
The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
research GPR39 marks specific cells within the sebaceous gland and contributes to skin wound healing
GPR39 is linked to certain cells in the sebaceous gland and helps with skin healing.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt5a Expression Inhibits the Telogen-To-Anagen Transition of Hair Follicles in Mice
Increasing Wnt5a in mice skin delays hair growth but doesn't stop it.
research Synchronously developing collet hairs in Arabidopsis thaliana provide an easily accessible system for studying nuclear movement and endoreduplication
Arabidopsis collet hairs are good for studying nuclear movement and DNA content increase during growth.
research Niche Required for Inducing Quiescent Stem Cells
A special environment is needed to fully activate sleeping stem cells.
