Prompt treatment of inflammatory tinea capitis (kerion) is crucial to prevent scarring and hair loss.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Development and characterization of minoxidil-loaded liposomal system for delivery to pilosebaceous units
Minoxidil-loaded liposomes effectively deliver to hair follicles, potentially improving hair growth and treating alopecia.
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 Alopecia in Crash Dieters
Crash dieting can cause hair loss due to severe calorie restriction.
research Altered resting-state activity in seasonal affective disorder
People with Seasonal Affective Disorder have different brain activity in certain areas when resting.
research Alopecia areata patients show deficiency of FOXP3+CD39+ T regulatory cells and clonotypic restriction of Treg TCRβ-chain, which highlights the immunopathological aspect of the disease
Patients with Alopecia areata have fewer specific immune cells that normally regulate the immune system, which may contribute to the condition.
research Possible contribution of chronobiology to cardiovascular health
Understanding and tracking our body's natural daily rhythms could help improve heart health.
research High-performance liquid chromatographic determination of finasteride in human plasma using direct injection with column switching
New method detects finasteride in plasma quickly and accurately without clean-up.
research Scalp whorls
Abnormal scalp whorls can indicate brain development issues but may also be seen in neurologically normal people.
research Fabrication of a 3D hair follicle‐like hydrogel by soft lithography
Researchers created a 3D hydrogel that mimics human hair follicles, which may help with hair loss treatments.
research The placebo effect and randomized trials: analysis of conventional medicine
The document concludes that it's important to understand the placebo effect when evaluating the effectiveness of treatments in medical trials.
research Hair removal using a long-pulsed alexandrite laser.
The long-pulsed alexandrite laser is effective for hair reduction, particularly for light-skinned individuals with dark hair, but caution is needed for darker skin.
research Measurement of hair growth
Scalp hair grows at 0.37 mm/day, forearm hair at 0.18 mm/day, and thigh hair at 0.30 mm/day, with no significant differences found in people with certain hair conditions.
research Effect of cyproterone acetate on rate of hair growth in hirsute females
Cyproterone acetate reduced hair growth in most hirsute females and made hair softer, thinner, and lighter.
research Preparation and evaluation of a multimodal minoxidil microemulsion versus minoxidil alone in the treatment of androgenic alopecia of mixed etiology: a pilot study
Multimodal minoxidil microemulsion is more effective in treating hair loss than minoxidil alone.
research Use of Hair Products Containing Hormone or Placenta by US Military Personnel
About 15% of US Army personnel use hair products containing hormone or placenta, with higher usage among non-whites, females, and enlisted personnel.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
