research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Association between Smoking and Hair Loss: Another Opportunity for Health Education against Smoking?
Smoking may contribute to hair loss in men.
research Hair Pain (Trichodynia): Frequency and Relationship to Hair Loss and Patient Gender
Hair pain is more common in women with hair loss, but it's not linked to the cause or severity of hair loss.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
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 The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research A novel cosmetic approach to treat thinning hair
A new hair treatment with caffeine and other ingredients makes hair thicker and less likely to break.
research Low iron stores: a risk factor for excessive hair loss in non-menopausal women.
Low iron levels are linked to more hair loss in non-menopausal women.
research Immune cell regulation of the hair cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Protective effects of human umbilical cord blood‑derived mesenchymal stem cells against dexamethasone‑induced apoptotic cell death in hair follicles
Stem cells from umbilical cord blood may prevent hair loss caused by certain medications.
research Study on Hair Distribution in Healthy Males for Hair Restoration Design
About 21.3% of young, healthy Chinese men experience hair loss. Hairlines are mostly linear or have a central protrusion. Hair is densest on the top and back of the head, and hair follicles usually have 1 or 2 hairs. This information can help in designing hair restoration procedures.
research Hair-on-hair static friction coefficient can be determined by tying a knot
Tying a knot can measure hair friction, useful for medical applications.
research Integrated Transcriptomics and Metabolomics Analyses of Stress-Induced Murine Hair Follicle Growth Inhibition
Chronic stress in mice changes skin metabolism and gene expression, leading to hair loss.
research Effects of environmental enrichment on growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and hair follicle development of Rex rabbits
Using cans with beans improves Rex rabbits' growth, meat quality, and hair follicle density.
research The trichotillometry: a technique for hair assessment
Trichotillometry is a reliable method to measure hair strength and assess hair loss treatments.
research New Donor Excision Design for Better Hair Alignment in Hair Restoration Surgery
The new triangular flag-shaped design for incisions in hair transplant surgery provides better hair alignment and cosmetic appearance without extra scarring, especially for patients with specific hair directions.
research Aging and Anti-Aging in Hair and Hair Loss
Hair ages and thins due to factors like inflammation and stress, and treatments like antioxidants and hormones might improve hair health.
research Hair Loss Dysmorphic Disorder – a Frequently Encountered and Often Neglected Disorder
Most people worried about abnormal hair loss actually have psychological issues like depression or anxiety.
research Hair follicle organoids: advances in construction, applications, and translational challenges
Hair follicle organoids can help study hair biology and disorders but need improvements for wider use.
research Unraveling the psychological impact of telogen effluvium: Understanding hair loss beyond the scalp
Hair loss from telogen effluvium can cause mental health issues and lower life quality, needing both medical and emotional support.
research Cosmetics and hair and nails
Hair and nails are skin parts that develop early and serve protective and functional roles.
research Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research Live imaging of stem cell and progeny behaviour in physiological hair-follicle regeneration
Hair regeneration needs dynamic cell behavior and mesenchyme presence for stem cell activation.
research Stem cell dynamics in the hair follicle niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
