research A Case of Cosmetic-Related Eyebrow Loss: Combined Analysis Using Dermoscopy and Reflectance Confocal Microscopy
Using eyebrow powder caused eyebrow hair loss, but stopping its use led to regrowth.
research Lrig1-expressing epidermal progenitors require SCD1 to maintain the dermal papilla niche
Hair growth-related cells need the enzyme SCD1 to help maintain the area that supports hair growth.
research Author response: Coordinated hedgehog signaling induces new hair follicles in adult skin
Hedgehog signaling can create new hair follicles in adult skin but may increase cancer risk.
research Decision letter: Coordinated hedgehog signaling induces new hair follicles in adult skin
Hedgehog signaling can create new hair follicles but may also cause tumors.
research Skin‐on‐a‐chip strategies for human hair follicle regeneration
New technologies show promise for better hair regeneration and treatments.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Diverse mechanisms for endogenous regeneration and repair in mammalian organs
Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.
research Cyclooxygenases in the skin: pharmacological and toxicological implications
Blocking COX, especially COX-2, in the skin can reduce inflammation and pain and may help prevent skin cancer.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Alopecia areata: A multifactorial autoimmune condition
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research FGF5 is a crucial regulator of hair length in humans
FGF5 gene mutations cause unusually long eyelashes by affecting hair growth regulation.
research Dlx3 is a crucial regulator of hair follicle differentiation and cycling
Dlx3 is essential for hair growth and regeneration.
research Short communication: Factors affecting hair cortisol concentrations in lactating dairy cows
Tail switch hair is best for measuring cortisol in Holstein cows, with white hair and multiparous cows showing higher levels.
research Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Among Children
Children, especially teenagers, can get severe SARS-CoV infection with symptoms similar to adults, but they typically recover well with supportive care.
research A PAX1 enhancer locus is associated with susceptibility to idiopathic scoliosis in females
A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.
research Dermatologic manifestations of endocrine disorders
Skin changes can help diagnose and manage endocrine disorders like thyroid problems, diabetes, and adrenal gland conditions.
research Intestinal Dysbiosis and Biotin Deprivation Induce Alopecia through Overgrowth of Lactobacillus murinus in Mice
An imbalanced gut and lack of biotin can cause hair loss in mice.
research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research The disruption of Sox21-mediated hair shaft cuticle differentiation causes cyclic alopecia in mice
Disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice causes hair loss and regrowth cycles.
research Acquired Zinc Deficiency
Long-term parenteral nutrition without zinc can cause severe zinc deficiency.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research Anagen effluvium
Hair usually grows back 1-3 months after treatment for anagen effluvium, and children with Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome often improve by adolescence.
research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research Traction alopecia: the root of the problem
Tight hairstyles and chemical relaxers can cause hair loss known as traction alopecia.
research Acquired scalp alopecia. Part I: A review
Accurate diagnosis is key for treating different kinds of hair loss, and immune response variations may affect the condition and treatment results.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
