research Tissue regenerative delays and synthetic lethality in adult mice after combined deletion of Atr and Trp53
Removing both Atr and Trp53 genes in adult mice causes severe tissue damage and death due to DNA damage.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease

Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
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 Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Hair Depigmentation Is a Biological Readout for Pharmacological Inhibition of KIT in Mice and Humans
Hair color loss can indicate the effectiveness of a drug targeting the KIT protein in mice and humans.
