750-780 / 1000+ resultsresearch Comparison of Alopecia areata in Human and Nonhuman Mammalian Species
The document concludes that certain rats and mice are useful for studying hair loss in humans and testing treatments.
research Abstracts Presented at the 12th Joint Meeting of the International Society of Dermatopathology, March 4-5, 2009, Marines Memorial Club & Hotel, San Francisco, CA, USA
Mast cells play a significant role in hair loss conditions like male pattern hair loss and alopecia areata.
research 613 Assessment of the induction and morphogenic potential of human hair matrix cells and dermal papilla fibroblasts ex vivo
Human hair matrix cells and dermal papilla fibroblasts can form early hair follicle structures but don't produce hair shafts yet.
research In situ tensile deformation characterization of human hair with atomic force microscopy
AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.
research Human hair follicle cells of outer root sheath maintain their genuine keratin expression in vitro
research HAIR DISEASES
Most hair loss can be diagnosed with patient history and physical exam, and a few common types make up most cases.
research Hair diameter measurements for planning follicular unit extraction surgery (FUE): Is there a correlation between the micrometer caliper and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) findings?
The micrometer caliper is a reliable tool for measuring hair diameter for FUE surgery.
research Observation of cultured amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles by atomic force microscopy
Amelanotic melanocytes from hair follicles are immature and likely don't transfer melanosomes to keratinocytes.
research Impact of adipose-derived stem cells on engineering hair follicle germ-like tissue grafts for hair regenerative medicine
Adding human fat-derived stem cells to hair follicle grafts greatly increases hair growth.
research 862 Defining the molecular signature of the hair follicle dermal sheath and its functional requirement for hair cycle progression during catagen
The hair follicle dermal sheath is essential for hair shedding and needs to communicate with the outer root sheath for normal hair growth cycles.
research Three-dimensional architecture of macrofibrils in the human scalp hair cortex
Human hair has a complex, variable structure with a consistent matrix and double-twist pattern.
research Histopathological Evidence of Occipital Involvement in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Advanced male pattern baldness affects the back of the scalp, reducing hair follicles.
research 859 Building a functional niche for hair follicle stem cells
Deleting the CRIF1 gene in mice disrupts skin and hair formation, certain proteins affect hair growth, a new compound may improve skin and hair health, blood cell-derived stem cells can create skin-like structures, and hair follicle stem cells come from embryonic cells needing specific signals for development.
research DERMAL GLYCOSAMINOGLYCAN CONCENTRATION THROUGHOUT HAIR GROWTH CYCLE OF RATS
Glycosaminoglycan levels peak early in hair growth and decrease as the cycle progresses.
research Comparative Histopathology of Androgenetic Alopecia, Diffuse Alopecia, and Senescent Alopecia
research Bound on the Risk for M-SVMs
The enzyme system in hair follicles is similar to the liver's and is inhibited by certain substances.
research Referee report. For: Hair greying in castrated mice [version 1; peer review: 1 approved with reservations]
Androgen loss may speed up hair greying.
research Analysis of Hair Follicles in Mutant Laboratory Mice
Understanding normal hair follicle development helps analyze abnormalities in mutant mice.
research Increased scalp skin and serum 5 alpha-reductase reduced androgens in a man relevant to the acquired progressive kinky hair disorder and developing androgenetic alopecia
research Histomorphological and Quantitative Characteristics of Black and Gray Human Scalp Hair
Gray hair has more continuous medullation and a higher medullary diameter than black hair.
research Degradation of Human Hair by Papain
Papain and bisulfite break down human hair by dissolving parts of it.
research Cryopreservation of engineered hair follicle germs for hair regenerative medicine
DMSO and microfinger devices show promise for preserving hair grafts for hair loss treatments.

Hair follicle culture helps study cell interactions and effects of substances on tissue growth.
research Bubble hair
Bubble hair deformity may be caused by hair shaft trauma and can improve with gentle hair care.
