TDM10842, a thyroid hormone receptor activator, was found to effectively promote hair growth in mice.
research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research Micronutrients in hair loss
Some vitamins and minerals are important for preventing hair loss, but treating hair loss with them without a known deficiency is not proven effective.
research Highly Upregulated Lhx2 in the Foxn1−/− Nude Mouse Phenotype Reflects a Dysregulated and Expanded Epidermal Stem Cell Niche
The Foxn1(-/-) nude mouse shows disrupted and expanded skin stem cell areas due to high Lhx2 levels.
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 TNF superfamily in skin appendage development
TNF family proteins are crucial for the development of skin features like hair, teeth, and mammary glands.
research Receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) stimulates the proliferation of epithelial cells of the epidermo-pilosebaceous unit
RANK-RANKL signaling is essential for hair growth and skin health.
research Atypical Protein Kinase C Isoform, aPKCλ, Is Essential for Maintaining Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence
aPKCλ is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells inactive and maintaining normal hair growth.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research Hairless: A nuclear receptor corepressor essential for skin function
The Hairless gene is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Alopecia
Alopecia areata is a reversible, autoimmune-related hair loss that can have significant emotional impact and uncertain treatment effectiveness.
research Hair loss disorders in domestic animals
The book explains causes, diagnosis, and treatments for hair loss in pets.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Generation of the Krt24-CreERT2 Mouse Line Targeting Outer Bulge Hair Follicle Cells
The study created a mouse model to better understand hair follicle stem cells' role in hair growth and repair.
research Delayed epidermal permeability barrier formation and hair follicle aberrations in Inv-Cldn6 mice
Mice with too much Claudin-6 have skin barrier problems and abnormal hair growth.
research Alkaline Ceramidase 1 Protects Mice from Premature Hair Loss by Maintaining the Homeostasis of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Alkaline Ceramidase 1 prevents early hair loss in mice by keeping hair follicle stem cells balanced.
research The stem cell quiescence and niche signaling is disturbed in the hair follicle of the hairpoor mouse, an MUHH model mouse
Disrupted stem cell signals in hairpoor mice cause hair loss.
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 Involvement of scalp and nails in lupus erythematosus
Lupus can affect the scalp and nails, often causing hair loss and nail damage, and needs early aggressive treatment to prevent permanent damage.
