research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Experimental Evidence in Hair Restoration Procedures: Plucked Hair Survival and Growth Rate.
Plucked hair follicles grow faster than conventional ones, making them a potentially better option for hair transplants.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia
The document says doctors should identify and treat Frontal fibrosing alopecia medically before considering surgery, as treatments often don't work well.

Stem Cell Educator therapy helps regrow hair and improve life quality in alopecia areata patients.
research Pathomechanisms of immune-mediated alopecia
The study concluded that immune cells attacking hair follicles cause hair loss in alopecia, with genetics and environment also playing a role, and highlighted the potential of certain treatments.
research Mutations in SNRPE, which Encodes a Core Protein of the Spliceosome, Cause Autosomal-Dominant Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the SNRPE gene cause hereditary hair loss.
research Prevention of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in rodent models
Localized heat or specific injections can prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss without affecting cancer treatment.
research μ-Crystallin, Thyroid Hormone-binding Protein, is Expressed Abundantly in the Murine Inner Root Sheath Cells
μ-Crystallin may help hair growth by affecting thyroid hormone levels in mouse hair follicles.
research Anatomy and Physiology of Hair
Hair is important for protection, social interaction, and temperature control, and is made of a growth cycle-influenced follicle and a complex shaft.
research Desmoglein 4 Mutations Underlie Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis in Humans, Mice, and Rats
