research Androgenetic Alopecia
The document concludes that signs of male and female pattern baldness include uneven hair thickness, yellow spots, skin discoloration around hair follicles, more thin and soft hairs, and many hair follicles with just one hair.
research Aberrant connective tissue sheath contraction drives premature hair follicle regression by inducing progenitor cell depletion in androgenetic alopecia
Abnormal contraction of connective tissue in hair follicles causes hair loss by killing off important cells, and treating this could improve hair growth.
research Frontalna fibrozirajuća alopecija
Early diagnosis and treatment of frontal fibrosing alopecia are crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Telogen effluvium: acute and chronic
Hair loss from telogen effluvium happens when a disturbance or imbalance causes hair to fall out prematurely.
research Mechanical characterization of curly hair: Influence of the use of nonconventional hair straightening treatments
Formaldehyde damages curly hair more than glyoxylic acid.
research A new mutation resulting in the truncation of the TRAF6-interacting domain of XEDAR: a possible novel cause of hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia: Figure 1
A new mutation in the XEDAR gene might cause a rare skin condition called hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Patterned Hair Loss
A 47-year-old man was diagnosed with a specific type of hair loss and advised to use certain medications and avoid hair transplants.
research Poly (ɛ‐caprolactone)–chitosan–poly (vinyl alcohol) nanofibrous scaffolds for skin excisional and burn wounds in a canine model
The scaffolds significantly sped up wound healing in dogs and were safe.
research Non-Scarring Alopecia in Women Presenting with Hair Loss: Clinical Features and Influencing Factors
Telogen effluvium is the most common hair loss in women, often linked to low iron, while tight hairstyles and headscarves increase traction alopecia risk.
research The focal adhesion protein PINCH-1 associates with EPLIN at integrin adhesion sites
PINCH-1 is crucial for skin cell adhesion and movement, working with EPLIN and ILK.
research Characterization of hair follicles in Hirosaki hairless rats with deletion of basic hair keratin genes : enlarged medulla, loss of cuticle and long catagen
research Mechanism of Laccase-assisted Tyrosine Grafting on Keratin using BSA as a Model Protein
New hair perming method using tyrosine is gentler and can be done with a blow-dryer.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Single‐cell transcriptomic analysis of small and large wounds reveals the distinct spatial organization of regenerative fibroblasts
Different types of skin cells are organized in a special way in large wounds to help with healing and hair growth.
research The trichoscopic features of hair shaft anomalies induced by epidermal growth factor receptor inhibitors: A case series
EGFR inhibitors often cause dry, brittle hair and eyebrow/eyelash changes.
research Skipping of Exons by Premature Termination of Transcription and Alternative Splicing within Intron-5 of the Sheep SCF Gene: A Novel Splice Variant
A new mRNA variant of the SCF gene in sheep skin produces a shorter, different protein.
research The structure and organization of lanceolate mechanosensory complexes at mouse hair follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Three-dimensional microvascular organization around hair follicles as revealed by FITC-dextran injection method
research Mutations in SNRPE, which Encodes a Core Protein of the Spliceosome, Cause Autosomal-Dominant Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the SNRPE gene cause hereditary hair loss.
research Tangled Truths: Unraveling the Link Between Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia and Allergic Contact Dermatitis
The article suggests that patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia may have more contact allergies, but it doesn't prove that allergies cause the condition.
research Analysis of the abnormal human hair keratins by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis
research Referee report. For: Pathogenesis of Androgenetic alopecia [v1; indexed, http://f1000r.es/5ar]
Androgenetic alopecia may be irreversible due to the detachment of a muscle from hair follicles.
research In Vivo Follicular Unit Multiplication
Cutting hair follicles into pieces for transplantation results in poor growth and thinner hair, and the technique is more invasive than previously thought.
research The Comparison of Trichoscopic Findings in Female Pattern Hair Loss (FPHL) and Chronic Telogen Effluvium (CTE) in Female Patients
Trichoscopic features can help dermatologists distinguish between female pattern hair loss and chronic telogen effluvium.
research The increasing incidence of frontal fibrosing alopecia. In search of triggering factors
Various potential triggers may be causing the rise in frontal fibrosing alopecia, and avoiding these could help stop the disease's increase.
research The hair shaft: normality, abnormality, and genetics
Hair microscopy is useful for diagnosing hair disorders, but clear definitions are needed for accurate genetic analysis.
