research A Nonrandomized study of trichoscopy patterns using nonpolarized (contact) and polarized (noncontact) dermatoscopy in hair and shaft disorders
Polarized dermoscopy is slightly better than nonpolarized for diagnosing hair disorders, with each method having its own strengths.
research Erythropoietin promotes hair shaft growth in cultured human hair follicles and modulates hair growth in mice
Erythropoietin helps hair grow and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research Genetic interplays between Msx2 and Foxn1 are required for Notch1 expression and hair shaft differentiation
Msx2 and Foxn1 are both crucial for hair growth and health.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.
research Effects of ultraviolet B radiation on physicochemical properties of human hair shaft
UVB radiation changes the chemical makeup and dries out human hair but doesn't alter its appearance or texture.
research Potential use of human hair shaft keratin peptide signatures to distinguish gender and ethnicity
Keratin peptides in hair might help identify gender and ethnicity.
research Self-Activated Electrical Stimulation for Effective Hair Regeneration via a Wearable Omnidirectional Pulse Generator
A wearable device using electric stimulation can significantly improve hair growth.
research HAIR AND SYSTEMATIC DISEASE
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.
research Emerging biomedical engineering strategies for hair follicle regeneration
New engineering methods show promise for regenerating hair follicles using stem cells and advanced technologies.
research Polarized microscopy in genetic hair disorders: case series
Polarized microscopy helps identify hair irregularities in genetic disorders.
research Special Forms of Hair Transplantation
The document concludes that specialized hair transplant techniques can be effective, with varying success rates depending on the donor area and patient factors.
research Noninvasive method for assessing the human circadian clock using hair follicle cells
Scientists found a new, less invasive way to study body clocks using hair cells, which shows shift workers' body clocks don't match their lifestyles.
research Human hair shaft proteomic profiling: individual differences, site specificity and cuticle analysis
Human hair proteins vary by individual, body site, and ethnicity, useful for forensics.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Resistance of degraded hair shafts to contaminant DNA
Degraded hair shafts resist contamination and can be easily cleaned.
research Transcutaneous implantation of valproic acid-encapsulated dissolving microneedles induces hair regrowth
Tiny needles with valproic acid can effectively regrow hair.
research Clinical and histopathologic features of hair loss in patients with HIV-1 infection
People with late-stage HIV-1 often experience a specific type of hair loss linked to multiple factors, including nutritional issues and immune responses.
research Hair morphogenesisin vitro: formation of hair structures suitable for implantation
Scientists created early-stage hairs from mouse cells that grew into normal, pigmented hair when implanted into other mice.
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 Krtap11-1, a hair keratin-associated protein, as a possible crucial element for the physical properties of hair shafts
Krtap11-1 is important for hair strength and structure.
research Activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is involved in hair growth-promoting effect of 655-nm red light and LED in in vitro culture model
Red light and LED treatments help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Pre-aggregation of scalp progenitor dermal and epidermal stem cells activates the WNT pathway and promotes hair follicle formation in in vitro and in vivo systems
Grouping certain skin cells together activates a growth pathway that helps create new hair follicles.
research Uncombable-hair Syndrome
Four children had unmanageable pale blond hair due to uncombable-hair syndrome.
research Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals the Molecular Anatomy of Sheep Hair Follicle Heterogeneity and Wool Curvature
The research identified genes that explain why some sheep have curly wool and others have straight wool.
research Optical coherent tomography: promising in vivo measurement of hair shaft cross section
OCT is a reliable, noninvasive way to measure hair thickness.
research Hair Casts
Hair casts may be caused by repetitive hair pulling or styling and are often misdiagnosed.
research Hair follicle changes following intense pulsed light axillary hair reduction: histometrical, histological and immunohistochemical evaluation
Intense pulsed light treatment effectively reduces underarm hair by making hair follicles smaller and extending their resting phase.
