research Controlling Hair Loss by Regulating Apoptosis in Hair Follicles: A Comprehensive Overview
Regulating cell death in hair follicles can help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Butyrophilin-like 2 (BTNL2) to the Rescue: controlling autoaggressive dermal gamma delta (GD) T lymphocytes in human hair follicles (HFs) 3747
BTNL2 helps protect hair follicles from immune attacks, which could aid in treating alopecia areata.
research Pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Human placenta induces hair regrowth in chemotherapy-induced alopecia via inhibition of apoptotic factors and proliferation of hair follicles
Human placenta helps hair grow back after chemotherapy by blocking cell death and increasing hair follicle growth.
research Scalp Micro-Pigmentation via Transcutaneous Implantation of Flexible Tissue Interlocking Biodegradable Microneedles
New technique implants pigment in scalp with less pain and damage.
research 1372 Biological effects of electrical epilation on human hair follicles and perifollicular skin ex vivo

research 1373 Specific in vivo ablation of Lrig1-positive follicular stem cells results in sebaceous gland loss in mice
Removing Lrig1-positive stem cells in mice causes temporary loss of sebaceous glands.
research Trichoblastic Carcinoma (“Malignant Trichoblastoma”) with Lymphatic and Hematogenous Metastases
Long-standing benign tumors can become cancerous, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
research Chemotherapy‐induced alopecia management: Clinical experience and practical advice
The conclusion is to use scalp cooling, gentle hair care, and treatments like minoxidil for managing hair loss from chemotherapy, and stresses the need for more research and collaboration in this area.
research Promotion of homology-directed DNA repair by polyamines
Polyamines help fix DNA damage accurately in cells.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Hair Loss in Systemic Disease
Systemic diseases can cause hair loss, which is often reversible with treatment.
research Safety and Efficacy of Bimatoprost Solution 0.03% Topical Application in Patients with Chemotherapy-Induced Eyelash Loss
Bimatoprost is safe and effective for treating eyelash loss caused by chemotherapy.
research Radiation-induced alopecia
A man experienced hair loss from radiotherapy, which can be temporary or permanent depending on radiation dose, with potential treatments available.
research Current standards in the diagnostics and therapy of hair diseases - hair consultation
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and evidence-based treatments are crucial for managing hair diseases, and psychological support for patients is important.
research Diseases of the Hair and Nails
Stress, nutritional issues, and chronic diseases can cause hair loss, and nail changes may signal internal diseases; treatment focuses on the underlying cause.
research Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that alopecia areata is an unpredictable autoimmune hair loss condition with no cure, but various treatments exist that require personalized approaches.
research Telogen Effluvium
Telogen Effluvium is a common, usually reversible hair loss condition, often improved by removing the trigger and possibly treated with various products, though their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Telogen effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a common hair loss condition where many hairs enter the resting phase, often not noticeable until significant loss occurs, and treatment focuses on the underlying cause.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Investigational medications in the treatment of alopecia
New treatments for hair loss are being developed using molecular biology.
research Expanding research and development of novel agents for the treatment and prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
