research Human hair keratin hydrogel : fabrication, characterization and application
Keratin hydrogels from human hair show promise for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
research Immunopathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecia
Hair loss in Lichen Planopilaris is caused by immune system issues damaging hair follicles and stem cells.
research Evaluation of hair follicles as a surrogate tissue for pharmacodynamics response in xenograft tumors
Hair follicles can be used to quickly assess drug effects in cancer treatment.
research Ethnopharmacology and hair: Indian perspectives
Traditional Indian remedies are used for hair health, but more scientific evidence is needed to prove their safety and effectiveness.
research Risk factors for prostate cancer: a case-control study investigating selected key exposures and their interactions with predisposition genes
Age, race, family history, and certain genetic factors increase prostate cancer risk.
research Hair today, gone tomorrow: the degradation and conservation of archaeological hair fibers
Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.
research Abstracts Pt.30
Terbinafine is more effective than itraconazole for toenail fungus, especially in older patients, and debridement improves its effectiveness.
research Nitrogen and carbon isotope signatures in cattle hair
Cattle hair isotope analysis can reveal diet and farm system characteristics.
research Intricacies of the Single-Scar Technique for Donor Harvesting in Hair Transplantation Surgery
The single-scar technique in hair transplantation minimizes scarring and preserves hairs for future use, with proper training overcoming its perceived drawbacks.
research Commentary
The commentary suggests that using a single-scar technique for hair transplants can give good cosmetic results, but some surgeons hesitate to use it despite ways to address their concerns.
research An Evaluation System to Enhance Patient Selection for Alopecia-Reducing Surgery
The evaluation system improves patient selection for hair loss surgery, leading to fewer but more successful surgeries.
research Allergens and Irritants
Many substances, including chemicals and metals, can cause skin reactions; careful handling and identification of allergens are crucial to prevent dermatitis.
research FC056 The ideal catagen of the hair
Blocking IL-1 could help treat some hair loss conditions; alopecia affects liver detox systems; spironolactone is better than finasteride for female hair growth; focusing on the catagen hair phase could lead to new alopecia treatments.
research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Histopathology of non-scarring alopecia
The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
research Trichoscopy of alopecia areata: An update
Trichoscopy helps diagnose and monitor alopecia areata by looking at a combination of specific hair and scalp features.
research Cutaneous reactions to chemotherapeutic drugs and targeted therapy for cancer
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin reactions, so dermatologists must manage these effects.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research HAIR ANALYSIS FOR DRUGS OF ABUSE. PLAUSIBILITY OF INTERPRETATION
Hair analysis can detect drug use but requires careful interpretation due to its complexity.
research The Ethnic Differences of the Damage of Hair and Integral Hair Lipid after Ultra Violet Radiation
Asian hair is more resistant to UV damage due to higher lipid content.
research Exogenous IGF-1 promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and down regulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 mice in vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
Maintaining the right amount of retinoic acid is crucial for healthy hair and skin.
