Hair graying is caused by damage and cell depletion but might be temporarily reversible with drugs and hormones.
research Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in primary cicatricial alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
research Histologic Features of Alopecias–Part I: Nonscarring Alopecias
The document concludes that recognizing specific histological features of different nonscarring alopecias is crucial for accurate diagnosis and understanding hair loss progression.
research Laminin-511, inducer of hair growth, is down-regulated and its suppressor in hair growth, laminin-332 up-regulated in chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy-induced hair loss is partly due to decreased laminin-511 and increased laminin-332.
research Experimental and early investigational drugs for androgenetic alopecia
New hair loss treatments may include topical medications, injections, and improved transplant methods.

The document concludes that a man's long hair may have helped diagnose his rare case of chronic hair shedding, for which no treatment is advised.
research Morphological and morphometric study of the androgenetic alopecic scalp using two- and three-dimensional analysis comparing regional differences
The study found that balding scalps have more thin hairs and larger oil glands, which might contribute to skin conditions related to hair loss.
research Laser capture microdissection as a method for investigating the human hair follicle microbiome reveals region-specific differences in the bacteriome profile
Laser-capture microdissection effectively analyzes hair follicle microbiomes, revealing region-specific bacterial differences.
research Physiology and Medical Treatments for Alopecia
Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy are effective FDA-approved treatments for hair loss.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by factors like poor blood circulation, scalp tension, stress, and hormonal imbalances, but the exact causes are still unclear.
