research Comparisons of mouse models for hair follicle reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Hair follicular cell/organ culture in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for hair regrowth despite potential side effects.
research Evaluation of hair loss
Detailed patient history and physical exams are crucial for diagnosing hair loss.
research Oestrogen receptor evaluation in Pomeranian dogs with hair cycle arrest (alopecia X) on melatonin supplementation
Melatonin helped some Pomeranian dogs regrow hair, but it wasn't linked to estrogen receptors.
research THE USE OF DERMAL PAPILLA CELLS IN STUDIES OF NORMAL AND ABNORMAL HAIR FOLLICLE BIOLOGY

Laser hair removal can be safe and effective for dark-skinned individuals with the right laser settings.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Plucked Human Hair Shafts and Biomolecular Medical Research
Human hair follicles may provide a noninvasive way to diagnose diseases and have potential in regenerative medicine.
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 Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.
research Flow-guided hair removal for automated skin lesion identification
The new method removes hair from skin images quickly and accurately to help identify skin lesions better.
