Annurca apple supplement safely increases hair growth and keratin in humans.
research Hair Loss in Children
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of hair loss in children is crucial due to limited treatment options and the condition's psychological impact.
research Unraveling the Molecular Mechanisms of Hair and Nail Genodermatoses
Genetic discoveries are key for understanding, diagnosing, and treating inherited hair and nail disorders.
research Early stage alopecia areata is associated with inflammation in the upper dermis and damage to the hair follicle infundibulum
Early stage bald spots are linked to skin inflammation and damage to the upper part of the hair follicle.
research Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for investigating murine telogen skin after spontaneous or depilation-induced hair growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research Hair growth-modulation by adrenergic drugs
Certain drugs can cause early hair growth in mice by affecting the nerves.
research Permeation of topically applied Magnesium ions through human skin is facilitated by hair follicles
Hair follicles help magnesium get through the skin more effectively.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Activated Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Wnt/β-catenin Signaling Involve in Pathnogenesis of Sebaceous Neoplasms
Abnormal activation of hair follicle stem cells and Wnt/β-catenin signaling contributes to sebaceous neoplasms.
research Intradermal injections of a hair growth factor formulation for enhancement of human hair regrowth – safety and efficacy evaluation in a first-in-man pilot clinical study
The QR 678 hair growth treatment was safe and effective for hair regrowth in men and women.
research Thiolated and PEGylated silica nanoparticle delivery to hair follicles
Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research Phototrichogram analysis of normal scalp hair characteristics with aging
Hair gets thinner and grayer with age, and density decreases more in men on top and in women on top and back.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Correlation of Hair Mineral Concentrations with Insulin Resistance in Korean Males
Higher hair calcium to magnesium ratios and lower chromium levels in hair may indicate insulin resistance in Korean men.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Stress-sensing in the human greying hair follicle: Ataxia Telangiectasia Mutated (ATM) depletion in hair bulb melanocytes in canities-prone scalp
Hair greying is linked to reduced ATM protein in hair cells, which protects against stress and damage.
research A missense mutation in the P2RY5 gene leading to autosomal recessive woolly hair in a Syrian patient
A gene mutation causes woolly hair in a Syrian patient.
research An in Vitro Model for the Study of Human Hair Growth
Researchers created a lab model to study human hair growth, showing it can grow and self-regulate outside the body.
research EDA and EDAR expression at different stages of hair follicle development in cashmere goats and effects on expression of related genes
EDA and EDAR are important for hair follicle development in cashmere goats and affect other related genes.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research Platycarya strobilacea S. et Z. Extract Has a High Antioxidant Capacity and Exhibits Hair Growth-promoting Effects in Male C57BL/6 Mice
Platycarya strobilacea extract is a strong antioxidant that can grow hair better than minoxidil.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome in children of Upper Egypt
Loose Anagen Hair syndrome occurs in dark-skinned children and often improves on its own.

New protein changes may be involved in the immune attack on hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research Protease activity, localization and inhibition in the human hair follicle
The study suggests that a new protease inhibitor can make hair harder to pull out, potentially reducing hair loss.
research Break Dancing: A New Risk Factor for Scarring Hair Loss
Break dancing on the head may cause a type of scarring hair loss that needs early treatment to prevent permanent damage.
research Qualitative investigation of fresh human scalp hair with full-field optical coherence tomography
Melanin density affects hair color, and this method can help in cosmetic assessments and diagnosing hair diseases.
