research Hormone-induced aberrations in electromagnetic adhesion signaling as a developmental factor of androgenetic alopecia
Hormones cause hair loss by affecting cell growth and weakening cell attraction.
research Surgical Therapies
Transplanting skin cells is a safe, effective, and affordable treatment for vitiligo.
research Morphogenesis- and Hair Cycle-dependent Expression of Trichohyalin, Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III and Deiminated Trichohyalin in Rat Dorsal Skin Hair Follicles
THH and PAD type III appear together early in hair growth, but deiminated THH appears later, suggesting another factor is involved.
research Anti-Hair Loss Effect of Veratric Acid on Dermal Papilla Cells
Veratric Acid may help promote hair growth and reduce hair loss.
research Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells
FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.
research 942 Hedgehog stimulates hair follicle neogenesis by creating inductive dermis during murine skin wound healing
Activating the Sonic hedgehog pathway can help regenerate hair follicles during wound healing in mice, potentially improving regeneration after injury.
research Hedgehog stimulates hair follicle neogenesis by creating inductive dermis during murine skin wound healing
The Sonic hedgehog pathway is crucial for new hair growth during mouse skin healing.
research Epidermis reconstructed from the outer root sheath of human hair follicle. Effect of retinoic acid
Human hair follicles can be used to create skin-like tissue for wound healing and drug testing.
research Sustained release of dermal papilla-derived extracellular vesicles from injectable microgel promotes hair growth
Injecting a special gel with human protein particles can help hair grow.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Hair cycle-specific expression of versican in human hair follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research Re-Evaluating Cyclosporine A as a Hair Growth–Promoting Agent in Human Scalp Hair Follicles
Cyclosporine A promotes hair growth and prolongs the active growth phase in human hair follicles, but may work differently than in rodents.
research A Two-Stepped Culture Method for Efficient Production of Trichogenic Keratinocytes
A two-step method was created in 2015 to make more cells that help with hair growth, but they need to be combined with other cells for 4 days to actually form new hair.
research Connarus semidecandrus Jack Exerts Anti-Alopecia Effects by Targeting 5α-Reductase Activity and an Intrinsic Apoptotic Pathway
Connarus semidecandrus Jack extract promotes hair growth and thickness, reduces prostate cancer cell growth, and could potentially be used as a treatment for hair loss.
research Abstract 81
Baby and adult skin cells are different, with baby cells having more active pathways that could help grow new hair follicles.
research Melanocortins in fibroblast biology – current update and future perspective for dermatology
α-MSH may help treat skin inflammation and fibrosis.
research Notes from the Editor Emeritus
Early attempts at using cloned cells for hair transplants failed, but 3D cell growth showed some promise.
research Localization, Age- and Site-Dependent Expression, and Regulation of 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 in Skin
Increased 11β-HSD1 activity in skin may contribute to aging and could be targeted to reduce aging effects.
research Viral-associated trichodysplasia spinulosa: a case with electron microscopic and molecular detection of the trichodysplasia spinulosa-associated human polyomavirus
A rare skin condition was confirmed to be associated with a specific virus in a young girl.
research Skin-specific expression of a truncated E1a oncoprotein binding to p105-Rb leads to abnormal hair follicle maturation without increased epidermal proliferation.
The oncoprotein causes abnormal hair growth without increasing skin cancer risk.
research Epithelial expression of the hormone leptin by bovine skin
Cattle skin has leptin which might control skin and hair growth.

Engineered exosomes with EGF and FGF improved hair growth in mice with hair loss.
research Follicular mucinosis: A detailed morphologic and immunopathologic study
Benign follicular mucinosis involves immune cells attacking hair follicles.
research 354 Investigating early molecular changes in a model of x-ray radiation-induced alopecia: spotlight on growth arrest and endothelial dysfunction
Radiation-induced hair loss may be caused by hair growth stopping and inflammation in blood vessels.
research Growth Factors and Microneedling in Alopecia Areata: A Narrative Review
Using growth factors and microneedling shows promise for hair regrowth in Alopecia Areata, but more research is needed.
