Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.
research Hair follicles, their disorders and their opportunities
Hair follicles offer promising targets for delivering drugs to treat hair and skin conditions.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research Distinctive histopathologic findings in linear morphea (en coup de sabre) alopecia
The study found unique skin changes in a rare type of alopecia linked to a skin condition called linear morphea.
research Computerized morphometry and three-dimensional image reconstruction in the evaluation of scalp biopsy from patients with non-cicatricial alopecias
The study suggests computer-assisted analysis of scalp biopsies could improve hair loss diagnosis but needs more validation.
research RECENT DEVELOPMENTS IN ALOPECIAS
Recent hair loss research shows some progress, especially in understanding male pattern baldness, but effective treatments for many types of hair loss are still lacking.
research An Atlas of Hair Pathology--with Clinical Correlations
The book is a detailed guide on hair and scalp diseases, useful for dermatopathologists.
research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Hair cycle-specific expression of versican in human hair follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research Further Clinical Evidence for the Effect of IGF-1 on Hair Growth and Alopecia
IGF-1 may affect hair growth and loss, but more research is needed to confirm effective and safe treatments.
research Exogenous IGF-1 promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and down regulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 mice in vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research Identification of Stem Cell Populations in Sweat Glands and Ducts Reveals Roles in Homeostasis and Wound Repair
The study found that sweat glands contain different types of stem cells that help with healing and maintaining healthy skin.
research Controllable Production of Transplantable Adult Human High-Passage Dermal Papilla Spheroids Using 3D Matrigel Culture
Researchers created hair-inducing human cell clusters using a 3D culture method.
research Human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells engineered to overexpress growth factors accelerate outcomes in hair growth
Modified stem cells from umbilical cord blood can make hair grow faster.
research Primary scalp alopecia: new histopathological tools, new concepts and a practical guide to diagnosis
The document concludes that new methods improve the accuracy of diagnosing scalp alopecia and challenges the old way of classifying it.
research ‘A detective look’ at hair biopsies from African-American patients
Recognizing specific features of African-American hair can help diagnose hair loss conditions.
research Chronic telogen effluvium: Increased scalp hair shedding in middle-aged women
Middle-aged women with chronic telogen effluvium experience increased hair shedding but usually don't get significantly thinner hair.
research Temporary hair removal by low fluence photoepilation: Histological study on biopsies and cultured human hair follicles
Low fluence photoepilation temporarily removes hair by targeting the hair follicle's pigmented area without severe damage.
research Extracellular vesicles derived from MSCs activates dermal papilla cell in vitro and promotes hair follicle conversion from telogen to anagen in mice
Tiny particles from stem cells help activate hair growth cells and encourage hair growth in mice without being toxic.
research Chitosan nanoparticles for targeting and sustaining minoxidil sulphate delivery to hair follicles
Chitosan nanoparticles improve minoxidil delivery to hair follicles for better alopecia treatment.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Beyond goosebumps: Does the arrector pili muscle have a role in hair loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
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 Long-Term Removal of Unwanted Hair Using Light
Laser and light treatments can effectively remove hair long-term.
research Primary Scarring Alopecia: Clinical-Pathological Review of 72 Cases and Review of the Literature
The conclusion is that primary scarring alopecia is a complex condition that requires early and accurate diagnosis for effective treatment.
research Characterization of X‐linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia (XL‐HED) hair and sweat gland phenotypes using phototrichogram analysis and live confocal imaging
People with X-linked hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia have no sweat ducts and less, thinner hair.
research Kojyl Cinnamate Ester Derivatives Increase Adiponectin Expression and Stimulate Adiponectin-Induced Hair Growth Factors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Kojyl cinnamate ester derivatives can promote hair growth by increasing adiponectin production in fat tissues.
research Hair follicle morphogenesis and epidermal homeostasis in we/we wal/wal mice with postnatal alopecia
The we/we wal/wal mice have defects in hair growth and skin layer formation, causing hair loss, useful for understanding alopecia.
