research Autoimmune Disease and Hair Loss
Autoimmune diseases can cause hair loss, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent damage.
research Stem cells and alopecia: a review of pathogenesis
Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
research STAT5 Activation in the Dermal Papilla Is Important for Hair Follicle Growth Phase Induction
STAT5 activation is crucial for starting the hair growth phase.
research Black women’s hair: the main scalp dermatoses and aesthetic practices in women of African ethnicity
Black women's unique hair characteristics and styling practices can lead to specific scalp conditions, which require early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
research Epidermal Polarity Genes in Health and Disease
Disruptions in epidermal polarity genes can lead to skin diseases.
research Transepidermal UV radiation of scalp skin ex vivo induces hair follicle damage that is alleviated by the topical treatment with caffeine
Caffeine applied to the scalp can protect hair follicles from UV damage.
research Permanent alopecia in patients with breast cancer after taxane chemotherapy and adjuvant hormonal therapy: Clinicopathologic findings in a cohort of 10 patients
Some breast cancer patients developed permanent hair loss after chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, showing patterns similar to common baldness and alopecia areata.
research Acute hair loss on the limbs in frontal fibrosing alopecia: a clinicopathological study of two cases
Frontal fibrosing alopecia can cause sudden hair loss on limbs, similar to scalp hair loss.
research Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a hair loss condition often confused with other types, requiring early treatment but usually not resulting in significant hair regrowth.
research Oxidative stress management in the hair follicle: Could targeting NRF2 counter age‐related hair disorders and beyond?
Activating NRF2 might help treat hair disorders by improving antioxidant defenses.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: To Treat or Not to Treat?
Treatments for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia have not been proven effective.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Evaluating hair growth promoting effects of candidate substance: A review of research methods
The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.
research Scalp Itch: A Systematic Review
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis and treatment of scalp itch require differentiating between various conditions using a proposed five-step evaluation process.
research Development and Prospects of Organ Replacement Regenerative Therapy
Scientists have made progress in creating replacement teeth, hair, and glands that work, which could lead to new treatments for missing teeth, baldness, and dryness conditions.
research Intragenic deletion in the Desmoglein 4 gene underlies the skin phenotype in the Iffa Credo “hairless” rat
A gene deletion causes the "hairless" trait in Iffa Credo rats.
research Lupus panniculitis clinically simulating alopecia areata
Lupus can look like hair loss from alopecia areata but needs different treatment.
research Finasteride is the main inhibitor of 5α-reductase activity in microdissected dermal papillae of human hair follicles
Finasteride potentially treats hair loss by reducing DHT production.
research Nanotechnology advances for hair loss
Nanotechnology could make hair loss treatments more effective and reduce side effects, but more research is needed before it's available.
research Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia: New Insights and a Call for Action
Hair loss in black women needs more research, early intervention, and community education.
research Hirsutism: diagnosis and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and combined treatments are key for hirsutism management, and weight loss may help overweight patients.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Effects of Imiquimod on Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Cycle Progression
Imiquimod cream activates hair follicle stem cells and causes early hair growth by changing immune cells and certain protein expressions.
research Feature characterization of scarring and non-scarring types of alopecia by multiphoton microscopy
Multiphoton microscopy can non-invasively tell apart scarring from non-scarring hair loss and could aid in treatment.
research A multicentre placebo‐controlled clinical trial on the efficacy of oral ciclosporin A in the treatment of canine idiopathic sebaceous adenitis in comparison with conventional topical treatment
Oral ciclosporin A and topical treatments both reduce hair loss and scaling in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but using both together is most effective.
research Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Review
Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia's cause is unclear, affects mainly postmenopausal women, and current treatments focus on stopping hair loss rather than regrowth.
