research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research A Human Folliculoid Microsphere Assay for Exploring Epithelial– Mesenchymal Interactions in the Human Hair Follicle
HFMs can help study hair growth and test potential hair growth drugs.
research Topical application of cyclosporin A induces rapid-remodeling of damaged anagen hair follicles produced in cyclophosphamide administered mice
Cyclosporin A helps damaged hair follicles regrow hair quickly.
research Sulfotransferase activity in plucked hair follicles predicts response to topical minoxidil in the treatment of female androgenetic alopecia
Sulfotransferase in hair follicles helps predict how well minoxidil works for female hair loss.
research A pure, monolayer culture of Merkel cells from sinus hair follicles of the rat
Adding fetal calf serum helps Merkel cells survive and change shape.
research Expression of mesenchymal stem cell marker CD90 on dermal sheath cells of the anagen hair follicle in canine species
CD90 is present on specific cells in dog hair follicles.
research Orientation of Multi-Hair Follicles in Nonbald Men: Perpendicular Versus Parallel
Most men's multi-hair follicles naturally stand perpendicular to a line from the top of their head, which is important for natural-looking hair transplants.
research The action of a cosmetic hair treatment on follicle function
The hair treatment made hair grow faster and thicker and strengthened the hair roots.
research FOLLICLE IMPLANTATION TECHNIQUE IN AUTOLOGOUS HAIR TRANSPLANTATION
Aligning hair implants with natural growth patterns improves hair transplant results.
research Follicle trauma and the role of the dissecting microscope in hair transplantation
Using a microscope during hair transplants cuts damage to follicles in half and could improve hair growth.
research 883 Hair follicle bulb developed as 3D scaffold free microtissue
Scientists created a tiny, 3D model of a hair follicle that grows and acts like a real one.
research 863 Molecular basis of hair follicle donor dominance in androgenetic alopecia and sexual dimorphism of the skin
Hair loss patterns differ between males and females due to 5 master regulators and JAK-STAT signaling affects hair growth.
research Hair loss in children in rural population
Teaching kids about hygiene can reduce scalp infections.
research Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells similar to embryonic stem cells.
research Abnormal inner root sheath of the hair follicle in the loose anagen hair syndrome: An ultrastructural study
Loose anagen hair syndrome is caused by structural abnormalities in the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Human hair follicles operate an internal Cori cycle and modulate their growth via glycogen phosphorylase
Inhibiting glycogen metabolism can promote hair growth.
research Fabrication of a 3D hair follicle‐like hydrogel by soft lithography
Researchers created a 3D hydrogel that mimics human hair follicles, which may help with hair loss treatments.
research Pten loss in Lgr5+ hair follicle stem cells promotes SCC development
Loss of Pten in certain hair follicle stem cells increases skin cancer risk.
research A Survey of the Awareness, Knowledge and Behavior of Hair Dye Use in a Korean Population with Gray Hair
People need more information about hair dye ingredients and side effects.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Anagen hair follicle repair: Timely regenerative attempts from plastic extra‐bulge epithelial cells
Certain cells outside the hair follicle's bulge area can quickly regenerate damaged hair follicles, potentially helping to reduce hair loss from cancer treatments.
research Age-Related Changes in Female Scalp Dermal Sheath and Dermal Fibroblasts: How the Hair Follicle Environment Impacts Hair Aging
Aging causes changes in the scalp that can affect hair growth and lead to older-looking hair in women.
research Epigallocatechin-3-Gallate Promotes the Growth of Mink Hair Follicles Through Sonic Hedgehog and Protein Kinase B Signaling Pathways
Green tea compound EGCG helps mink hair follicles grow by affecting certain cell growth pathways.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.
research Human hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells improve ovarian function in cyclophosphamide-induced POF mice
Human hair follicle stem cells improve ovarian function in mice with damaged ovaries.
research Preservation of melanoblasts of white hair follicles of segmental vitiligo lesions: A preliminary study
White hair follicles in vitiligo have fewer and less functional melanocytes.
research Viable terminal scalp hair follicles constitute a necessary and sufficient biological end‐organ that conditions clinical efficacy of finasteride in males with male pattern hair loss without implying reversal of miniaturized follicles
Finasteride works for hair loss by maintaining existing hair follicles, not reversing miniaturization.
research Premature greying of hair among the population of King Faisal University in Al-Ahasa, Saudi Arabia: an epidemiological study
Premature greying of hair is common among young people at King Faisal University, especially females, and is linked to health issues, lifestyle, and family history.
research Sex Hormones and Hair Loss in Men From the General Population of Northeastern Germany.
Men's hair loss is not linked to their sex hormone levels, except for lower DHEAS in those with hair loss.
