research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research Primary Follicular Dystrophy With Scarring Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mouse Substrains Resembles Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia in Humans
Certain mouse strains develop a skin condition similar to a human hair loss disease due to genetic defects.
research Involvement of scalp and nails in lupus erythematosus
Lupus can affect the scalp and nails, often causing hair loss and nail damage, and needs early aggressive treatment to prevent permanent damage.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
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 Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
research An important role of cutaneous lymphatic vessels in coordinating and promoting anagen hair follicle growth
Skin lymphatic vessels are essential for hair growth.
research RASopathic alopecia: Hair changes associated with vemurafenib therapy
Vemurafenib therapy can cause hair loss, but clobetasol propionate foam can help regrow hair.
research Dermoscopic Findings in Radiation-Induced Alopecia after Angioembolization
Radiation-induced alopecia after angioembolization usually heals on its own and can look like other hair loss types, but patient history helps prevent misdiagnosis.
research Construction of transcriptome atlas of white yak hair follicle during anagen and catagen using single-cell RNA sequencing
The research improved understanding of yak hair growth to help use yak wool better.
research Circumscribed alopecia areata incognita
A rare form of alopecia causes hair thinning without bald spots and may be more common than thought, responding well to steroid treatment.
research Sequential cyclic changes of hair roots revealed by dermoscopy demonstrate a progressive mechanism of diffuse alopecia areata over time
Dermoscopy shows that diffuse alopecia areata progresses through specific hair growth stages.
research Radiation-Induced Alopecia after Endovascular Embolization under Fluoroscopy
A man had temporary hair loss from radiation during a medical procedure but regrew his hair after treatment with minoxidil lotion.
research The trichotillometry: a technique for hair assessment
Trichotillometry is a reliable method to measure hair strength and assess hair loss treatments.
research Why Do Not All Chemotherapy Patients Lose Their Hair? Answering an Intriguing Question
Chemotherapy patients don't all lose their hair due to factors like hair growth rates, age, genetics, and the type of drugs used.
research Disorders of the Hair and Nails
The document reviews various hair and nail disorders, their causes, and treatments, emphasizing the need for proper diagnosis and the link between nail changes and systemic diseases.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Oxidative Damage Control in a Human (Mini-) Organ: Nrf2 Activation Protects against Oxidative Stress-Induced Hair Growth Inhibition
Activating Nrf2 protects human hair follicles from oxidative stress and helps prevent hair growth inhibition.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research Psychodermatology
Many skin patients also have mental health issues, and doctors should treat both together.
research The Phytocannabinoid (–)-Cannabidiol Operates as a Complex, Differential Modulator of Human Hair Growth: Anti-Inflammatory Submicromolar versus Hair Growth Inhibitory Micromolar Effects
CBD can either reduce inflammation and not affect hair growth at low levels or inhibit hair growth at high levels.
research The local hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Stress hormone CRF can cause hair loss by affecting hair growth cells and hormones.
research A comprehensive review of biochemical factors in herbs and their constituent compounds in experimental studies on alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Cashmere growth control in Liaoning cashmere goat by ovarian carcinoma immunoreactive antigen-like protein 2 and decorin genes
OCIAD2 and DCN genes affect hair growth in goats by having opposite effects on a growth signaling pathway and inhibiting each other.
research A pig model exploring the postnatal hair follicle cycle
Pigs are a good model for studying human hair growth and disorders.
research Innate lymphoid cells type 1 may be new, non-antigen-specific player in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Innate lymphoid cells type 1 may contribute to alopecia areata by damaging hair follicles.
research Trichotillomania
Trichotillomania is a condition where people repeatedly pull out their hair, which can be triggered by stress and has various physical signs.
research 875 Exploring the role of microRNAs in alopecia areata
