Dermal-epidermal interactions are crucial for hair growth and maintenance.
research The role of P-cadherin in skin biology and skin pathology: lessons from the hair follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Targeted expression of SV40 T antigen in the hair follicle of transgenic mice produces an aberrant hair phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Minoxidil 5% Solution for Topical Treatment of Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome
Minoxidil 5% solution significantly improved hair density in a girl with loose anagen hair syndrome over 28 months, with no side effects.
research The regulatory role of the tetrapeptide A cSDKP in skin and hair physiology and the prevention of ageing effects in these tissues – a potential cosmetic role
AcSDKP may help prevent skin and hair aging and promote their growth.
research Dermatopathology and molecular genetics
Combining skin tissue pathology with genetics has greatly improved the diagnosis and understanding of certain skin diseases.
research Effects of 1?,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol on organotypic cultures of outer root sheath cells: a potential model to evaluate antipsoriatic drugs
Vitamin D compounds may help treat psoriasis by promoting skin cell differentiation.
research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research Hair and nail disorders of childhood
The document concludes that various childhood hair and nail disorders exist, some may improve on their own, and advances in genetics and immunology could enhance treatment and counseling.
research 873 The effect of Cilostazol on hair growth: A novel therapeutic option for the treatment of hair loss
Cilostazol may help hair grow and could be a new treatment for hair loss.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical & Structural Mechanical Parameters
New methods to classify curly hair types were developed based on shape and strength.
research Coexistence of Woolly Hair and Monilethrix: A Cases Study
Two sisters have rare hair disorders causing short, fragile, kinky hair.
research Sparse Hair on the Scalp
A 5-year-old girl has sparse, dry, and brittle hair but is otherwise healthy.
research 877 Small T antigen from a folliculotropic polyomavirus activates canonical Wnt/β-catenin signaling in vivo
A virus protein can activate a pathway that may lead to abnormal hair follicle development.
research 872 Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling controls hair follicle dermal condensate size during development
Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for the proper size and development of hair follicles.
research 876 Manipulation of stem cell divisional behavior: Selectively promoting asymmetric and symmetric keratinocyte divisions in vitro
Scientists can control how skin stem cells divide by using different treatments.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Hair Biology and Nutritional Influences
Eating a balanced diet with the right vitamins and minerals is important for healthy hair, but too many supplements can be harmful.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Atrichia congenita with papular lesions: A rare cause of pediatric alopecia
This rare genetic disorder causes permanent hair loss and skin bumps from birth.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Focal alopecia in the dog
Focal alopecia in dogs has many causes and requires various tests for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
research Wnt-dependent de novo hair follicle regeneration in adult mouse skin after wounding
Hair follicles can regrow in wounded adult mouse skin using a process like embryo development.
research Epithelial Wnt Ligand Secretion Is Required for Adult Hair Follicle Growth and Regeneration
Wnt ligands are crucial for hair growth and repair.
research Androgens and alopecia
Male hormones, particularly DHT, are linked to male pattern hair loss, and treatments like finasteride can help, but they don't work for postmenopausal women's hair loss, which may have different causes.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
