Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research Dietary vitamin A regulates wingless-related MMTV integration site signaling to alter the hair cycle
Eating vitamin A affects hair growth and health by changing cell signals in mice.
research Diseases on Hair Follicles Leading to Hair Loss Part I: Nonscarring Alopecias
Common types of non-scarring hair loss have various causes and treatments, but more effective solutions are needed.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Hair follicle immune privilege in autoimmune and immune-mediated alopecias: paths toward reestablishing immune tolerance
Different types of alopecia cause hair loss due to immune system issues, with some allowing regrowth and others causing permanent loss.
research Induction of hair follicle dermal papilla cell properties in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived multipotent LNGFR(+)THY-1(+) mesenchymal cells
Researchers found a way to create cells from stem cells that act like human cells important for hair growth and could be used for hair regeneration treatments.
research A Systematic Review of the Outcome of Hair Transplantation in Primary Scarring Alopecia
Hair transplantation may work for some types of scarring alopecia, but results vary and more research is needed.
research Hair Restoration in the Ethnic Patient and Review of Hair Transplant Fundamentals
The document concludes that understanding hair loss and considering medical treatments like minoxidil and finasteride before surgery is important, especially for young patients with rapid hair loss, and that hairline design varies among different ethnicities.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy for Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
PRP therapy helps slow hair loss and increases hair thickness.
research Prevention of impending scalp necrosis by topical nitroglycerine in hair transplant surgery
Topical nitroglycerin spray effectively prevents scalp necrosis in hair transplant patients.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Use of extracellular matrix hydrogel from human placenta to restore hair-inductive potential of dermal papilla cells
Human placenta hydrogel helps restore cells needed for hair growth.
research 3-Deoxysappanchalcone Promotes Proliferation of Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Growth in C57BL/6 Mice by Modulating WNT/β-Catenin and STAT Signaling
3-Deoxysappanchalcone helps human hair cells grow and stimulates hair growth in mice by affecting certain cell signaling pathways.
research Hair follicle germs containing vascular endothelial cells for hair regenerative medicine
Adding human blood vessel cells to hair follicle germs may improve hair growth and quality.
research Hydrogen Peroxide and Wound Healing: A Theoretical and Practical Review for Hair Transplant Surgeons
Hydrogen peroxide's effects on wound healing in hair transplants are unclear, and it may slow healing and increase scarring.
research Complications of Hair Transplant Procedures—Causes and Management
Hair transplants are mostly safe but can have minor complications.
research Why care about Linear Hair Growth Rates (LHGR)? A study using in vivo imaging and computer assisted image analysis after manual processing (CAIAMP) in unaffected male controls and men with male pattern hair loss (MPHL)
Thicker hair grows faster; hair loss patients have slower growth.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Hair Follicles: Strategic Targets for Promoting Hair Growth
Targeting hair follicles can effectively promote hair growth and treat hair disorders.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
research Understanding the functional contribution of dermal stem cells to hair follicle regeneration and skin wound healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.
