research CCN2 modulates hair follicle cycling in mice
The protein CCN2 controls hair growth by affecting hair follicle formation and stem cell activity in mice.
research Histopathology of Scarring and Nonscarring Hair Loss
The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of tissue samples and understanding of clinical symptoms.
research Adherence to topical hydrocortisone 17-butyrate 0.1% in different vehicles in adults with atopic dermatitis
Adults with atopic dermatitis showed similar adherence to different forms of hydrocortisone cream, but actual use varied despite self-reports of near-perfect usage.
research The role of P-cadherin in skin biology and skin pathology: lessons from the hair follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Transcriptional activation of CCN1 and CCN2, targets of canonical Wnt signal, by ascorbic acid 2-phosphate in human dermal papilla cells
Vitamin C derivative may promote hair growth by activating specific genes.
research Regeneration of a New Hair Follicle from the Upper Half of a Human Hair Follicle in a Nude Mouse
The upper half of a human hair follicle can grow a new hair in a mouse, but success is rare.
research Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells
FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.
research Attenuation of Dickkopf 1-Induced Hair Growth Inhibition in Cultured Human Hair Follicles by Tianeptine
Tianeptine may help prevent hair loss by promoting hair growth and reducing cell death.
research Dermal macrophage and its potential in inducing hair follicle regeneration
Dermal macrophages might help regrow hair.
research Hair Follicle Reconstruction and Stem Cells
