780-810 / 1000+ resultsresearch Overexpression of Sonic Hedgehog suppresses embryonic hair follicle morphogenesis
Too much Sonic Hedgehog protein stops hair growth in embryos.
research Deficiency of Formyl Peptide Receptor 2 Retards Hair Regeneration by Modulating the Activation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Dermal Papilla Cells in Mice
Lack of FPR2 slows hair growth by affecting hair cell activity.
research The effects of GPR40 agonists on hair growth are mediated by ANGPTL4
GPR40 agonists help hair growth through the protein ANGPTL4.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Eyebrow and Eyelash Transplantation Using Chalazion Forceps (Dr. Min’s Method) and Importance of Post-Transplant Recovery in Hair Restoration
Dr. Min's method for eyebrow and eyelash transplantation is effective, with most hairs regrowing, and proper recovery is crucial for success.
research Author response: A counter gradient of Activin A and follistatin instructs the timing of hair cell differentiation in the murine cochlea
Activin A and follistatin control when ear hair cells form in mice.
research Decision letter: A counter gradient of Activin A and follistatin instructs the timing of hair cell differentiation in the murine cochlea
Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.
research An overview of chemical straightening of human hair: technical aspects, potential risks to hair fibre and health and legal issues
Chemical hair straightening can damage hair and health, needing safer alternatives and stricter regulations.
research Hair Pores Caused by Surfactants via the Cell Membrane Complex and a Prevention Strategy through the Use of Cuticle Sealing

research Sox2-positive dermal papilla cells specify hair follicle type in mammalian epidermis
Sox2-positive cells determine specific hair follicle types in mammals.
research Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Epithelial growth control by neurotrophins: leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Neurotrophins are important for hair growth and could help treat hair loss.
research Epidermal patterning and induction of different hair types during mouse embryonic development
Different body areas in mice produce different hair types due to interactions between skin layers.
