research Guest Editorial
The editorial concludes that the field of hair loss treatment has become more scientific and that effective treatments are important for self-esteem and job prospects.
research Surgical reduction of alopecia
Scalp reduction can improve hair distribution in certain baldness cases but requires careful patient selection and understanding of facial structure.
research Red Deer Antler Extract Accelerates Hair Growth by Stimulating Expression of Insulin-like Growth Factor I in Full-thickness Wound Healing Rat Model
Red deer antler extract may help hair grow faster by increasing a growth protein.
research Hair Regeneration Methods Using Cells Derived from Human Hair Follicles and Challenges to Overcome
Current hair regeneration methods show promise but face challenges in maintaining cell effectiveness and creating the right environment for hair growth.
research Status of research on the development and regeneration of hair follicles
New regenerative medicine-based therapies for hair loss look promising but need more clinical validation.
research “Cloned” Hairlines
Cutting and implanting hair follicles can create finer, more natural-looking hairlines, with about half of the implanted hairs growing back.
research Surgical interventions for androgenetic alopecia
Hair transplant works well, but needs more research for better results.
research The human keratins: biology and pathology
Keratins are crucial for cell stability, wound healing, and cancer diagnosis.
research The Nuclear Vitamin D Receptor: Biological and Molecular Regulatory Properties Revealed
The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.
research Molecular Mechanisms Regulating Hair Follicle Development
Understanding hair follicle development can help treat hair loss, skin regeneration, and certain skin cancers.
research Finasteride in the treatment of men with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride safely and effectively treats male pattern hair loss, but may cause reversible sexual issues and harm male fetuses.
research Mice with a null mutation of the TGFα gene have abnormal skin architecture, wavy hair, and curly whiskers and often develop corneal inflammation
TGFα gene mutation in mice causes abnormal skin, wavy hair, curly whiskers, and sometimes eye inflammation.
research Melatonin membrane receptors in peripheral tissues: Distribution and functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Multipotent nestin-positive, keratin-negative hair-follicle bulge stem cells can form neurons
Hair-follicle stem cells can become neurons.
research Defining the impact of β-catenin/Tcf transactivation on epithelial stem cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Isolation of a Novel Population of Multipotent Adult Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles can provide stem cells for regenerative medicine.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Inhibition of Bmp signaling affects growth and differentiation in the anagen hair follicle
Inhibiting Bmp signaling disrupts hair growth and differentiation.
research Fibroblast heterogeneity: implications for human disease
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in diseases and healing, and more research on them could improve treatments.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins were cataloged, showing their roles in hair differentiation stages.
research Vitamin D receptor: molecular signaling and actions of nutritional ligands in disease prevention
Vitamin D receptor interacts with certain dietary components to help prevent diseases and regulate hair growth.
research Melatonin in the skin: synthesis, metabolism and functions
Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair is made up of different keratins, some strong and some weak, with specific types appearing at various stages of hair growth.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research and Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Human Hair Keratin‐Associated Proteins (KAPs)
Keratin-associated proteins are crucial for hair strength and structure.
research Lipoatrophy and severe metabolic disturbance in mice with fat-specific deletion of PPARγ
Mice lacking the PPARγ gene in their fat cells had almost no fat tissue, severe metabolic problems, and abnormal development of other fat-related tissues.
research Stem cell niches in mammals
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell renewal and differentiation, and understanding them can help in developing regenerative therapies.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
