research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Aging of hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Nutrition and Hair
Eating the right nutrients can improve hair health, but taking extra supplements usually doesn't help unless you have a deficiency.
research Enhanced ectodysplasin-A receptor (EDAR) signaling alters multiple fiber characteristics to produce the East Asian hair form
A genetic change in the EDAR gene causes the unique hair traits found in East Asians.
research Human hair follicle: reservoir function and selective targeting
The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.
research Topical application of Polygonum multiflorum extract induces hair growth of resting hair follicles through upregulating Shh and β-catenin expression in C57BL/6 mice
Polygonum multiflorum extract helps grow hair by activating certain hair growth signals in mice.
research Prolactin and Its Receptor Are Expressed in Murine Hair Follicle Epithelium, Show Hair Cycle-Dependent Expression, and Induce Catagen
Prolactin affects hair growth cycles and can cause early hair follicle regression.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Female pattern hair loss: a pilot study investigating combination therapy with low-dose oral minoxidil and spironolactone
Low-dose oral minoxidil and spironolactone combo effectively reduces hair loss and improves hair density in women.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt10b Overexpression Induces Hair Follicle Regeneration
Wnt10b overexpression can regenerate hair follicles, possibly helping treat hair loss and alopecia.
research A clinical overview of hair removal using lasers and light sources
Lasers and light sources can effectively remove hair, work best on fair skin with dark hair, and usually need multiple treatments.
research Improving stable isotopic interpretations made from human hair through reduction of growth cycle error
The conclusion is that recognizing hair growth cycles can improve the precision of dietary and health assessments from hair analysis.
research mTOR signaling promotes stem cell activation via counterbalancing BMP-mediated suppression during hair regeneration
mTOR signaling helps activate hair stem cells by balancing out the suppression caused by BMP during hair growth.
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 Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research Trans‐species hair growth induction by human hair follicle dermal papillae
Human hair follicle cells can grow hair when put into mouse skin if they stay in contact with mouse cells.
research Fibroblast Growth Factors Stimulate Hair Growth throughβ-Catenin and Shh Expression in C57BL/6 Mice
Certain growth factors can promote hair growth in mice by activating hair growth-related proteins.
research Hedgehog signaling maintains hair follicle stem cell phenotype in young and aged human skin
Hedgehog signaling helps keep hair follicle stem cells the same in both young and old human skin.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research What women want - quantifying the perception of hair amount: an analysis of hair diameter and density changes with age in caucasian women
Caucasian women's hair appears thickest in their 20s, with perceived thinning after mid-30s due to both decreasing density and diameter.
research Topical Application of a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Reduces Skin and Hair Pigmentation
Applying a specific inhibitor lightens skin and hair color.
research Hair loss: is there a relationship with hair care practices in Nigeria?
Frequent use of chemical hair relaxants is linked to increased scarring hair loss in Nigerian women.
research AGD1, a class 1 ARF‐GAP, acts in common signaling pathways with phosphoinositide metabolism and the actin cytoskeleton in controlling Arabidopsis root hair polarity
AGD1 is important for root hair development in Arabidopsis, working with phosphoinositide signaling and the actin cytoskeleton.
research Hair and scalp disorders in ethnic populations
Different hair care practices and conditions affect African American hair and scalp health, requiring specialized knowledge for treatment.
