research Disorders of the hair and scalp.
The document concludes that while some hair and scalp disorders can be treated, hair loss from destroyed follicles is permanent, and damaged hair can only regrow naturally.
research ARHGEF3 Regulates Hair Follicle Morphogenesis
ARHGEF3 is essential for proper hair follicle development.
research Activation of TRPV3 Inhibits Lipogenesis and Stimulates Production of Inflammatory Mediators in Human Sebocytes—A Putative Contributor to Dry Skin Dermatoses
Activating TRPV3 reduces skin oil production and increases inflammation, potentially causing dry skin issues.
research Converging physiological roles of the anthrax toxin receptors
CMG2 and TEM8 receptors have distinct roles in skin and growth disorders, affecting collagen breakdown and growth.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: An Update on Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment
The cause of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia is unclear, diagnosis involves clinical evaluation and various treatments exist, but their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Expression Profiles of Tyrosine Kinases in Cultured Follicular Papilla Cells Versus Dermal Fibroblasts
Certain tyrosine kinases may regulate hair growth and could help develop hair loss treatments.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
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 Comparison of Epidermal Growth Factor Binding and Receptor Distribution in Normal Human Epidermis and Epidermal Appendages
research Non-canonical dimerization of the androgen receptor and other nuclear receptors: implications for human disease
Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
Hair has unevenly distributed proteins and lipids, with lipids mainly in the cuticle and proteins in the cortex and medulla.
research Whiskers amiss, a new vibrissae and hair mutation near the Krt1 cluster on mouse Chromosome 11
A new mutation in mice causes crooked whiskers and messy hair.
research Stress-induced chemokine production by hair follicles recruits dendritic cells to sites of minor trauma
Hair follicles help attract immune cells to minor skin injuries.
research Retinoic Acid and Mouse Skin Morphogenesis. I. Expression Pattern of Retinoic Acid Receptor Genes During Hair Vibrissa Follicle, Plantar, and Nasal Gland Development
research The hair follicle as a neuro-immuno-endocrine organ: Implications in hair disorders and regenerative therapies
Understanding hair follicle signaling can improve hair disorder treatments.
research Adipose Infiltration of the Dermis, Involving the Arrector Pili Muscle, and Dermal Displacement of Eccrine Sweat Coils: New Histologic Observations in Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
The conclusion is that fat tissue in the skin is a new finding in Frontal fibrosing alopecia and may contribute to hair follicle and muscle degeneration.
research Differential expression of mTOR signaling pathway proteins in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia
The mTOR pathway proteins are altered in the hair follicles of patients with Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.
research Dandruff Is a Low‐Grade Inflammatory Condition Featuring Hyperproliferative Keratinocytes, Interleukin‐17‐Producing T Cells, and N‐Acyl Ethanolamines
Dandruff involves inflammation and increased skin cell growth, not just flaking.
research BPS2026 – TMC1 and TMC2 are cholesterol-dependent scramblases that regulate membrane homeostasis in auditory hair cells
research The activin binding proteins follistatin and follistatin-related protein are differentially regulated in vitro and during cutaneous wound repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
research 5α-Reductase isozymes and aromatase mRNA levels in plucked hair from young women with female pattern hair loss
Higher enzyme levels found in women with hair loss, suggesting hormone imbalance.
research Human dermal Vδ1 + T-cells recognize “stressed” HFs and may induce alopecia areata
Certain immune cells may cause hair loss by reacting to stressed hair follicles.
research Transient stimulation of TRPV4‐expressing keratinocytes promotes hair follicle regeneration in mice
Activating TRPV4 in skin cells helps regrow hair in mice, possibly offering a treatment for hair loss.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor 21 is Differentially Expressed in Flank Skin and Regulates the Proliferation of Hair Follicle Cells in Yak
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 Unruly hair
The document concludes that unruly hair can be congenital or acquired, often lacks specific treatments, and can be managed with oils and short hairstyles.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Folliculin: A surprising molecular brake in the human hair follicle
Folliculin slows hair growth, and blocking it might help treat hair loss.
research A homozygous single T deletion found in the GGCX gene with PXE-like phenotypes
