research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Melatonin and the hair follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent: an overview
The document concludes that clinicians should be aware of common hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent and that more research is needed to develop effective treatments.
research Skin physiology in microgravity: a 3-month stay aboard ISS induces dermal atrophy and affects cutaneous muscle and hair follicles cycling in mice
A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Idiopathic hirsutism: excessive bodily and facial hair in women
Idiopathic hirsutism causes excessive hair growth in women, can be treated with medication and hair removal, but cannot be fully reversed.

research Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes During a Wool Follicle Growth Cycle Induced by Prolactin
Certain genes are linked to wool follicle structure and function, but not hair cycle regulation.
research Use of genetics in the prediction of success in male pattern hair loss therapy and mechanistic studies
Genetics can help tailor treatments for male pattern hair loss, improving outcomes like stabilization or modest regrowth.
research 086 Evaluation of hair re-growth by cyclosporine and minoxidil using C3H mouse model
