Androgens are important for normal ovarian function and estrogen production, but may not be the main cause of follicle death.
research The role of lymphocytes in the development and treatment of alopecia areata
Lymphocytes, especially CD8+ T cells, play a key role in causing alopecia areata, and targeting them may lead to new treatments.
research Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration
Keratin 79 marks a new group of cells that are key for creating and repairing the hair follicle's structure.
research New hair from healing wounds
Adult mice can grow new hair from skin wounds.
research Stem cell plasticity enables hair regeneration following Lgr5+ cell loss
