research Healthy Hair: Form and Function
Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.
research Direct hair growth promoting effects of mycophenolic acid
Mycophenolic acid may help hair grow by activating pathways important for hair growth.
research Society News
Smoking doubles the risk of blindness, and physical exercise helps dyslexic children read better.
research Evaluation of difficult alopecia areata cases requiring histopathological confirmation
Histopathological confirmation is crucial for accurately diagnosing challenging alopecia areata cases.
research Gas-propelled anti-hair follicle aging microneedle patch for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
A new microneedle patch helps treat hair loss by improving drug delivery to hair follicles.
research Hair Today
The document concludes that understanding hair biology is key to treating hair disorders, with gene therapy showing potential as a future treatment.
research The Effect of Finasteride on the Secretion of Testosterone, DHT, LH, FSH and Tissue Factors in the Testis of NMRI Mice:
Finasteride reduces sperm count and quality and alters hormone levels in mice.
research Early-onset Male Androgenetic Alopecia and Metabolic Syndrome: Are They Associated?
Early balding in men is linked to metabolic syndrome, so screening is important for prevention.
research USE OF RICE WATER (Oryza Sativa) & HIBISCUS (Hibiscus Rosa- sinensis)
Rice water and hibiscus can help improve hair health and growth.
research Stem cell markers (cytokeratin 15, CD34 and nestin) in primary scarring and nonscarring alopecia
Scarring alopecia affects different hair follicle stem cells than nonscarring alopecia, and the infundibular region could be a new treatment target.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research 15. Hair and Nails
Women with androgenetic alopecia have fewer terminal hairs, phenol in nail surgery is safe, and a new hair transplant method is faster and less damaging.
research The human keratins: biology and pathology
Keratins are crucial for cell stability, wound healing, and cancer diagnosis.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Thymosin β4 promotes angiogenesis, wound healing, and hair follicle development
Thymosin β4 helps heal wounds, grow hair, and improve blood vessel formation.
research Gene expression profiling gets to the root of human hair follicle stem cells
Human hair follicle stem cells can be isolated using specific markers for potential therapeutic use.
research Changing Patterns of Localization of Putative Stem Cells in Developing Human Hair Follicles
Stem cells in developing hair follicles move to specific areas as they mature.
research Evaluation and diagnosis of the hair loss patient
Trichoscopy is a quick, cost-effective tool for diagnosing different hair loss conditions.
research Clinical evaluation of alopecias using a handheld dermatoscope
A handheld dermatoscope helps diagnose different types of hair loss effectively.
research Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration
Keratin 79 marks a new group of cells that are key for creating and repairing the hair follicle's structure.
research Normal Hair Growth in Children
Children's hair grows in different types from before birth through puberty, with growth rates and characteristics varying by age, sex, and race.
research Epithelial skirt and bulge of human facial vellus hair follicles and and associated Merkel cell-nerve complex
Merkel cells are abundant in facial vellus hair follicles, especially during the anagen phase.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research Electrospun fibrous sponge via short fiber for mimicking 3D ECM
The 3D electrospun fibrous sponge is promising for tissue repair and healing diabetic wounds.
research Standardizing the Classification and Description of Follicular Unit Transplantation and Mini-Micrografting Techniques
Surgeons suggested a standard system for hair transplant methods to improve communication and results.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Expression of the Orphan Protein Plet-1 during Trichilemmal Differentiation of Anagen Hair Follicles
Plet-1 protein helps hair follicle cells move and stick to tissues.
