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 The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research The Hair Follicle
Dogs could be good models for studying human hair growth and hair loss.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.

Apple procyanidin applied to the scalp may help grow hair without side effects.
research Comparative study on seasonal hair follicle cycling by analysis of the transcriptomes from cashmere and milk goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Transcriptomic analysis reveals critical genes for the hair follicle of Inner Mongolia cashmere goat from catagen to telogen
Key genes regulate hair follicle phase changes in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats.
research Effects of Imiquimod on Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Cycle Progression
Imiquimod cream activates hair follicle stem cells and causes early hair growth by changing immune cells and certain protein expressions.
research Hair growth effect of minoxidil
Minoxidil helps hair grow by improving blood flow and increasing growth factors in hair follicles.

research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Androgenetic alopecia: combing the hair follicle signaling pathways for new therapeutic targets and more effective treatment options
New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Protect Murine Hair Follicles from Taxane Induced Dystrophy and Hijacks Polyunsaturated Fatty Acid Metabolism toward β-Oxidation
Annurca apple extract may protect mouse hair from damage by chemotherapy and could help treat hair loss without promoting cancer growth.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Hair loss and hyperprolactinemia in women
Moderately high prolactin levels do not cause hair loss in women.
research Hair Loss in Patients with Inflammatory Bowel Disease
People with Inflammatory Bowel Disease often lose hair due to stress, medication side effects, or lack of nutrients, and treatment depends on the specific cause.
research Characterization of BMP2 gene expression in embryonic and adult Inner Mongolia Cashmere goat (Capra hircus) hair follicles
The BMP2 gene is more active in the early growth phase of Cashmere goat hair and may affect hair regeneration and textile production.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
