Research
150-180 / 1000+ results research Stress-induced production of chemokines by hair follicles regulates the trafficking of dendritic cells in skin
Hair follicles help attract immune cells to the skin during stress.
research Maintenance of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Is Linked to Prevention of NK Cell Attack
Hair follicles prevent NK cell attacks to avoid hair loss.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Pharmacologic inhibition of JAK-STAT signaling promotes hair growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
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 Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research The Role of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Collapse in Alopecia Areata: Status and Perspectives
Alopecia areata may be treated by restoring hair follicle immune privilege and adjusting immune responses.
research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Hair follicle is a target of stress hormone and autoimmune reactions
Stress hormones and autoimmune reactions can cause hair loss.
research Stem cell plasticity enables hair regeneration following Lgr5+ cell loss
Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.
research Thrombospondin-1 Plays a Critical Role in the Induction of Hair Follicle Involution and Vascular Regression During the Catagen Phase
Thrombospondin-1 is crucial for hair follicle regression and reduced blood vessel growth during the catagen phase.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Involvement of the Edar Signaling in the Control of Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Edar signaling is crucial for controlling hair growth and regression.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Alopecia Areata in C3H/HeJ Mice Involves Leukocyte-mediated Root Sheath Disruption in Advance of Overt Hair Loss
Hair loss in mice starts with immune cells damaging hair roots before it becomes visible.
research Betacellulin Regulates Hair Follicle Development and Hair Cycle Induction and Enhances Angiogenesis in Wounded Skin
Betacellulin helps blood vessel growth in wounds but delays hair growth.
research A systematic summary of survival and death signalling during the life of hair follicle stem cells
The conclusion is that understanding how hair follicle stem cells live or die is important for maintaining healthy tissue and repairing injuries, and could help treat hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome.
research A role of placental growth factor in hair growth
Placental growth factor may help treat hair loss.
research Hair physiology and its disorders
Different hair growth problems are caused by genetic issues or changes in hair growth cycles, and new treatments are being developed.
research Timely Wound Healing Is Dependent on Endothelial but Not on Hair Follicle Stem Cell Toll-Like Receptor 2 Signaling
Endothelial TLR2 is crucial for timely wound healing, but HFSC TLR2 is not needed.
research SIRT1 downregulation provokes immune-inflammatory responses in hair follicle outer root sheath cells and may contribute to development of alopecia areata
Reduced SIRT1 in hair cells may cause alopecia areata by triggering immune responses.
research Telomere Dynamics and Telomerase in the Biology of Hair Follicles and their Stem Cells as a Model for Aging Research
Hair follicle studies suggest that maintaining telomere length could help treat hair loss and graying, but it's uncertain if mouse results apply to humans.
research Hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells decrease alopecia areata mouse hair loss and reduce inflammation around the hair follicle
Hair follicle stem cells reduced hair loss and inflammation in mice with a condition similar to human alopecia.
research The Roles of Non-coding RNA in the Development and Regeneration of Hair Follicles: Current Status and Further Perspectives
Non-coding RNAs are important for hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss: The Use of Biomarkers for Predicting Alopecic Severity and Treatment Efficacy
Scalp cooling to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy works for some but not all, and studying hair damage markers could improve prevention and treatment.
research IL-15 Prolongs Anagen, Stimulates Proliferation, and Suppresses Apoptosis in the Hair Matrix of Human Scalp Hair Follicles
IL-15 helps hair grow longer and stronger by extending the growth phase and reducing cell death.
research 6-Gingerol inhibits hair cycle via induction of MMP2 and MMP9 expression
6-Gingerol from ginger may slow down hair growth by affecting certain enzymes and growth factors.
