research Post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia
The document concludes that post-menopausal frontal fibrosing alopecia is a poorly understood condition that does not respond well to common treatments.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
A 66-year-old woman experienced hair loss due to Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, a condition with no consistently effective treatment, but it usually stabilizes over time. More research is needed for better understanding and treatment options.
research A New Case of Isolated Trichothiodystrophy
A rare case of isolated trichothiodystrophy was identified, marked by brittle hair with low sulfur content.
research 0928 Dkk4 fine-tunes Wnt activity for hair follicle patterning and initiation
research FGF20 Secreted From Dermal Papilla Cells Regulate the Proliferation and Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Fine‐Wool Sheep
FGF20 is essential for hair follicle stem cell growth and development in fine-wool sheep.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia shows robust T helper 1 and Janus kinase 3 skewing
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to increased immune system activity and reduced stem cells, suggesting early treatment targeting this pathway might prevent hair follicle damage.
research Hair-Hair Contact Dynamics and Interactions Studied with Atomic Force Microscopy
Hair movement can indicate hair quality and health.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Autosomal-dominant woolly hair resulting from disruption of keratin 74 (KRT74), a potential determinant of human hair texture.
A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes woolly hair by affecting hair texture.
research HAIR KERATINIZATION IN HEALTH AND DISEASE
Understanding intermediate filaments helps explain hair health and related diseases.
research Rapidly progressive diffuse fibrosing alopecia
These hair loss conditions might be part of a spectrum, not separate issues.
research Hair Shaft Morphology, Elemental Composition, and Nanoparticles in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Case-control Study
Titanium nanoparticles may trigger frontal fibrosing alopecia, so avoid products with them.
research The case of the felted wig
The hairpiece matted due to weathered hair after shampooing.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: a review of eleven patients
Most treatments for Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia are ineffective, but early anti-inflammatory therapy may help and the condition may stabilize over time.
research Telogen Effluvium
research Protective effect of conditioning agents on Afro‐ethnic hair chemically treated with thioglycolate‐based straightening emulsion
Conditioning agents, especially jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG-18/18 methicone, protect and strengthen chemically straightened Afro-ethnic hair.
research Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Niche Maintenance in Long-Term Tissue Regeneration
FOXC1 is essential for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining their environment for healthy hair growth.
research Maryland Community Colleges Technology Needs Assessment Survey. Final Technical Report.
Female pattern hair loss often starts in teenage years, reduces hair density, and can impact quality of life.
research Acquired morphological changes of mammalian hair scales
Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.
research "Curly" Wood and Tiger Tails
Tiger tail bands in hair are caused by wavy hair fibers with melanin, unlike straight fibers in normal hair.
research Clinical and dermoscopic profile of female pattern hair loss
Dermoscopes help tell FPHL apart from other hair loss types and can detect it early by identifying specific patterns.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Office Diagnosis of Hair Shaft Defects
The document explains how to identify different hair problems using a microscope.
research K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
research A man with frontal fibrosing alopecia
A 60-year-old man with a long-term balding condition also developed a rare hair loss condition usually seen in postmenopausal women.
research Uneven Hair Breakage in a 17-Year-Old Girl
research 0037 Inflammatory implications in female pattern hair loss: unraveling B cell-related immune activation through comparative transcriptome profiling
Immune system changes may contribute to female pattern hair loss.
research Autosomal-Dominant Woolly Hair Resulting from Disruption of Keratin 74 (KRT74), a Potential Determinant of Human Hair Texture
A mutation in the KRT74 gene causes tightly curled hair.
research 0953 Double knockdown of DKK1 and SFRP1, two key players in androgenetic alopecia, does not accelerate the hair-growth promoting effect of individual SFRP1 knockdown in healthy human hair follicles ex vivo
