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 Targeted Expression of Human Vitamin D Receptor in the Skin Promotes the Initiation of the Postnatal Hair Follicle Cycle and Rescues the Alopecia in Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for starting hair growth after birth.
research Induction of Hair Growth by Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 in 1,763 MHz Radiofrequency-Irradiated Hair Follicle Cells
Radiofrequency exposure can stimulate hair growth by increasing IGF-1 in hair follicle cells.
research Stress-induced c-Jun-dependent Vitamin D Receptor (VDR) Activation Dissects the Non-classical VDR Pathway from the Classical VDR Activity
Stress activates a special function of the Vitamin D receptor with the help of c-Jun, which can also prevent cell death.
research Transient Ca2+ entry by plasmalogen-mediated activation of receptor potential cation channel promotes AMPK activity
Plasmalogens activate a channel in cells that may stimulate hair growth.
research Rac-dependent signaling from keratinocytes promotes differentiation of intradermal white adipocytes
Signals from skin cells controlled by Rac proteins help turn certain precursor cells into white fat cells.
research Physiological and biological skin changes in pregnancy
Pregnancy causes skin changes like darkening, hair thickening, nail changes, and increased risk of skin growths, most of which usually resolve after birth.
research Four Independent Mutations in the Feline Fibroblast Growth Factor 5 Gene Determine the Long-Haired Phenotype in Domestic Cats
FGF5 gene mutations cause long hair in domestic cats.
research Research progress and strategies for the biosynthesis of keratinocyte growth factor-2 (KGF-2) in Arabidopsis thaliana
Using Arabidopsis thaliana to produce KGF-2 is a promising, cost-effective method for hair growth and wound healing products.
research Phosphatidic Acid Has a Potential to Promote Hair Growth In Vitro and In Vivo, and Activates Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase/Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase Kinase in Hair Epithelial Cells
Phosphatidic acid may help hair grow by affecting cell growth pathways.
research Hair Growth Promotion by δ-Opioid Receptor Activation
Activating δ-opioid receptors can help hair grow.
research Effects of oxytocin receptor agonists on hair growth promotion
OXTR agonists may promote hair growth and be effective for treating hair loss.
research miR‐218‐5p regulates skin and hair follicle development through Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway by targeting SFRP2
miR-218-5p helps skin and hair growth by targeting SFRP2 and activating a specific signaling pathway.
research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research Novel Effect of Hyaluronan and Proteoglycan Link Protein 1 (HAPLN1) on Hair Follicle Cells Proliferation and Hair Growth
HAPLN1 can promote hair growth and may help treat hair loss.
research 15-deoxy prostaglandin J2, the nonenzymatic metabolite of prostaglandin D2, induces apoptosis in keratinocytes of human hair follicles: a possible explanation for prostaglandin D2-mediated inhibition of hair growth
A substance called 15-deoxy prostaglandin J2 can cause hair follicle cells to die, which might explain how prostaglandin D2 can lead to hair loss.
research Comparative Study Between 2% Minoxidil Topical Spray vs. Intradermal Injection (Mesotherapy) for Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Female Patients: A Controlled, 4-month Randomized Trial
Mesotherapy is more effective than topical spray for female hair loss treatment.
research Transcriptome Dynamics Reveal Stage-Specific and Melatonin-Triggered Gene Expression Patterns During The Cashmere Growth Cycle in Capra Hircus
Melatonin affects certain genes and pathways involved in cashmere goat hair growth.
research The Muscarinic Acetylcholine Receptor in Dermal Papilla Cells Regulates Hair Growth
Muscarinic acetylcholine receptors in skin cells help regulate and promote hair growth.
research Hair-Growth-Promoting Effect of Conditioned Medium of High Integrin α6 and Low CD 71 (α6bri/CD71dim) Positive Keratinocyte Cells
A special mix from certain skin cells can help hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and activating growth signals.
research Melatonin membrane receptors in peripheral tissues: Distribution and functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
