research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research An update of the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia: What does the current evidence tell us?
The current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia involves immune, genetic, hormonal factors, and possibly environmental triggers, but more research is needed for effective treatments.
research Monitoring chemotherapy‐induced alopecia with trichoscopy
Chemotherapy caused hair loss with specific patterns, but most patients had hair regrowth after treatment, while some had lasting hair loss.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
HPV16 oncogenes disrupt the normal activity of hair follicle stem cells.
research Minoxidil Induction of VEGF Is Mediated by Inhibition of HIF-Prolyl Hydroxylase
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by increasing blood flow and nutrients to hair follicles.

Integrin-linked kinase is crucial for normal skin healing.
research Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for investigating murine telogen skin after spontaneous or depilation-induced hair growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research Selective Expression of Calcium-Binding Proteins S100A8 and S100A9 at Distinct Sites of Hair Follicles
S100A8 and S100A9 proteins help form hair shafts during growth.

Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Hair growth control by innate immunocytes: Perifollicular macrophages revisited
Immune cells around hair follicles help control hair growth and could be targets for treating hair disorders.
research An out-of-lab trial: a case example for the effect of intensive exercise on rhythms of human clock gene expression
Intense exercise at night can delay the body's internal clock gene expression by 2 to 4 hours.
research Transfollicular enhancement of gel containing cationic niosomes loaded with unsaturated fatty acids in rice (Oryza sativa) bran semi-purified fraction
The gel with special fat-loaded particles from rice bran could be an effective skin treatment for hair loss.
research Alkaline Ceramidase 1 Protects Mice from Premature Hair Loss by Maintaining the Homeostasis of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Alkaline Ceramidase 1 prevents early hair loss in mice by keeping hair follicle stem cells balanced.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Alteration of Skin Wound Healing in Keratinocyte-Specific Mediator Complex Subunit 1 Null Mice
MED1 affects skin wound healing differently in young and old mice.
research Epigenetic regulation in adult stem cells and cancers
Understanding how epigenetic regulation affects stem cells is key to cancer insights and new treatments.
research The Use of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Selected Skin Diseases (Vitiligo, Alopecia, and Nonhealing Wounds)
Adipose-derived stem cells show promise in treating skin conditions like vitiligo, alopecia, and nonhealing wounds.
research Dopamine is a novel, direct inducer of catagen in human scalp hair folliclesin vitro
Dopamine stops hair growth and pigment production in human scalp hair follicles.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from a novel insertion mutation in the human hairless gene
Researchers found a new mutation causing total hair loss from birth.
research Insertional mutation of the hairless locus on mouse Chromosome 14
A gene mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin issues.
research Role of bulge epidermal stem cells and TSLP signaling in psoriasis
Blocking TSLP reduces skin inflammation and cell overgrowth in psoriasis.
