research Morphogenesis- and Hair Cycle-dependent Expression of Trichohyalin, Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III and Deiminated Trichohyalin in Rat Dorsal Skin Hair Follicles
THH and PAD type III appear together early in hair growth, but deiminated THH appears later, suggesting another factor is involved.
research Hair Biology and Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss caused by genetics and hormones; more research needed for treatments.
research Androgenetic alopecia in women
Hair loss in women, often not related to male hormones, increases with age and can cause significant emotional distress.
research Minoxidil: mechanisms of action on hair growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
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 Epithelial Wnt Ligand Secretion Is Required for Adult Hair Follicle Growth and Regeneration
Wnt ligands are crucial for hair growth and repair.
research Hair growth stimulated by conditioned medium of adipose-derived stem cells is enhanced by hypoxia: evidence of increased growth factor secretion
Low oxygen conditions increase the hair-growing effects of substances from fat-derived stem cells by boosting growth factor release.
research Electrolysis: Observations from 13 years and 140,000 hours of experience
Electrolysis is effective for permanent hair removal, but technique is key to avoid scarring, and sometimes hormonal treatment is needed for women with hirsutism.
research Probiotic Bacteria Induce a ‘Glow of Health’
Probiotic bacteria improved skin and hair health in aged mice.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research Action of topical minoxidil in the bald stump-tailed macaque
Minoxidil promotes hair growth but stops working when discontinued.
research Chronic Restraint Stress Inhibits Hair Growth via Substance P Mediated by Reactive Oxygen Species in Mice
Chronic stress can cause hair loss by increasing oxidative stress, but antioxidants may help.
research Permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia: Case report and review of the literature
Some chemotherapy can cause permanent hair loss.
research The hair cycle on the human thigh and upper arm
Men's thigh hair grows longer and has a longer growth cycle than women's, but arm hair growth is similar between genders.
research Permanent Alopecia After Systemic Chemotherapy: A Clinicopathological Study of 10 Cases
Chemotherapy can cause permanent, non-reversible hair loss similar to pattern baldness.
research A prospective randomized trial comparing finasteride to spironolactone in the treatment of hirsute women.
Finasteride and spironolactone both reduce hirsutism, but finasteride lowers androgen levels more.
research Skin physiology in microgravity: a 3-month stay aboard ISS induces dermal atrophy and affects cutaneous muscle and hair follicles cycling in mice
A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Common causes of hair loss – clinical manifestations, trichoscopy and therapy
The document concludes that understanding and treating hair loss requires recognizing its various types and using appropriate diagnostic tools and treatments.
research Epidermal E-Cadherin Dependent β-Catenin Pathway Is Phytochemical Inducible and Accelerates Anagen Hair Cycling
A form of vitamin E promotes hair growth by activating a specific skin pathway.
research A Microarray-Based Analysis Reveals that a Short Photoperiod Promotes Hair Growth in the Arbas Cashmere Goat
Shorter daylight increases hair growth in Cashmere goats.
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 Gene Expression of Mouse S100A3, a Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding Protein, in Developing Hair Follicle
S100A3 protein is crucial for hair shaft formation in mice.
research Reflectance Confocal Microscopy of the Yellow Dot Pattern in Alopecia Areata
Reflectance confocal microscopy confirms that yellow dots are signs of damaged hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research ‘Follicular Swiss cheese’ pattern - another histopathologic clue to alopecia areata
Dilated follicular infundibula and increased catagen/telogen follicles are key indicators for diagnosing alopecia areata.
research Effect of Dieckol, a Component of Ecklonia cava, on the Promotion of Hair Growth
Dieckol from Ecklonia cava may help hair growth and could be a potential hair loss treatment.
research Effects of 17-β-Estradiol and ICI 182 780 on Hair Growth in Various Strains of Mice
17-β-Estradiol applied to the skin stops hair growth, while ICI 182 780 helps hair grow in mice.
research Effect ofCitrullus colocynthisSchrad fruits on testosterone-induced alopecia
Citrullus colocynthis fruit extract may effectively treat testosterone-related hair loss, similar to finasteride.
research Foot shock stress prolongs the telogen stage of the spontaneous hair cycle in a non‐depilated mouse model
Stress in mice delays hair growth and treatments blocking substance P can partly reverse this effect.
research Leptin of dermal adipose tissue is differentially expressed during the hair cycle and contributes to adipocyte‐mediated growth inhibition of anagen‐phase vibrissa hair
Leptin from skin fat can slow hair growth during certain phases.
