research Cosmetics and hair and nails
Hair and nails are skin parts that develop early and serve protective and functional roles.
research Understanding the functional contribution of dermal stem cells to hair follicle regeneration and skin wound healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.
research Efficacy of Finasteride Treatment Versus Low-Level Laser in Frontal Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
Finasteride and low-level laser therapy are similarly effective for frontal pattern hair loss.
research Effects of EGF on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Induction of hair follicle dermal papilla cell properties in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived multipotent LNGFR(+)THY-1(+) mesenchymal cells
Researchers found a way to create cells from stem cells that act like human cells important for hair growth and could be used for hair regeneration treatments.
research In vitro skin models to study epithelial regeneration from the hair follicle
PSU are better than THF at regenerating skin layers in lab models.
research Scalp hair repigmentation in the penumbral region of radiotherapy– a case series
Radiotherapy can cause rare changes in hair color, which should be discussed with patients.
research Scaffolds for epithelial and hair follicle regeneration
Electrospun matrices help regenerate skin and hair follicles using PCL and collagen scaffolds.
research Regenerative potential of CD200- subpopulations of hair follicle bulge
CD200- cells in hair follicles have a higher ability to regenerate hair.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Staining of human skin with RGB trichrome unveils a proteoglycan-enriched zone in the hair dermal sheath
A new staining method shows a special area in the hair's skin layer with lots of proteoglycans.
research “Two-Cell Assemblage” Assay: A Simple in vitro Method for Screening Hair Growth-Promoting Compounds
The "Two-Cell Assemblage" assay is a new, simple method to identify substances that may promote hair growth.
research Hair Growth Cycle Affects Hair Follicle Destruction by Ruby Laser Pulses
Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Hair follicle dermal stem cells and skin‐derived precursor cells: Exciting tools for endogenous and exogenous therapies
Hair follicle stem cells and skin cells show promise for hair and skin therapies but need more research for clinical use.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
research Tissue engineering strategies for human hair follicle regeneration: How far from a hairy goal?
Fully regenerating human hair follicles not yet achieved.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Dietary isoflavone increases insulin-like growth factor-I production, thereby promoting hair growth in mice
Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.
research Evaluating hair growth promoting effects of candidate substance: A review of research methods
The document concludes that while lab results for hair growth promotion are promising, human trials are needed and better testing methods should be developed.
research Variation in human hair ultrastructure among three biogeographic populations
Different populations have distinct hair structures related to their ancestry.
research The Hair Follicle
Dogs could be good models for studying human hair growth and hair loss.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Glutamic acid promotes hair growth in mice
Glutamic acid helps increase hair growth in mice.
research Cyclosporine A increases hair follicle growth by suppressing apoptosis-inducing factor nuclear translocation: a new mechanism
Cyclosporine A helps hair grow by blocking a process that would otherwise cause hair cells to die.
research An overview of management of drug-induced hair and nail disorders
Cooling the scalp may prevent hair loss from chemotherapy, hair often grows back after treatment, and nail issues usually improve after stopping the drug.
research Hair and nail disorders of childhood
The document concludes that various childhood hair and nail disorders exist, some may improve on their own, and advances in genetics and immunology could enhance treatment and counseling.
research Involvement of the central hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis in hair growth and melanogenesis among different mouse strains
Stress can slow hair growth and affect skin color by impacting the body's stress response system.
