research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Functional hair follicle regeneration: an updated review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Human TSC2-null fibroblast-like cells induce hair follicle neogenesis and hamartoma morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research Black women’s hair: the main scalp dermatoses and aesthetic practices in women of African ethnicity
Black women's unique hair characteristics and styling practices can lead to specific scalp conditions, which require early diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Promotion of hair follicle development and trichogenesis by Wnt-10b in cultured embryonic skin and in reconstituted skin
Wnt-10b is important for starting hair growth and developing hair follicles.
research Bulge cells of human hair follicles: segregation, cultivation and properties
Researchers found that bulge cells from human hair can grow quickly in culture and have properties of hair follicle stem cells, which could be useful for skin treatments.
research Exogenous stimulation with Eclipta alba promotes hair matrix keratinocyte proliferation and downregulates TGF-β1 expression in nude mice
Eclipta alba extract helps increase hair growth and decrease hair loss-related protein in mice.
research Hair follicle elongation in organ culture of skin from newborn and adult mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research Efficacy of low‐level laser therapy on hair regrowth in dogs with noninflammatory alopecia: a pilot study
Low-level laser therapy seems to help dogs with noninflammatory alopecia grow hair back.
research Hair and nail involvement in lupus erythematosus
Lupus can cause hair loss and nail changes, with treatments available for both.
research The Phytocannabinoid (–)-Cannabidiol Operates as a Complex, Differential Modulator of Human Hair Growth: Anti-Inflammatory Submicromolar versus Hair Growth Inhibitory Micromolar Effects
CBD can either reduce inflammation and not affect hair growth at low levels or inhibit hair growth at high levels.
research Low-level laser treatment stimulates hair growth via upregulating Wnt10b and β-catenin expression in C3H/HeJ mice
Low-level laser treatment helps mice grow hair by increasing certain protein levels linked to hair growth.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Molecular evolution of HR, a gene that regulates the postnatal cycle of the hair follicle
Changes in the HR gene have influenced hair growth and may lead to hair loss conditions in humans.
research Substance P prolongs human hair growth in vitro
Substance P helps hair grow longer and faster.
research Hair Follicle Miniaturization in a Woolly Hair Nevus
The boy with woolly hair nevus had thinner hair and abnormal hair follicles, which improved with treatment but worsened when treatment stopped.
research Exposure to gamma-rays at the telogen phase of the hair cycle inhibits hair follicle regeneration at the anagen phase in mice
Gamma-rays exposure during the resting phase of hair growth can damage hair regeneration and color in mice.
research Topographical and Tribological Characteristics of Asian Human Hair Cuticles
Hair damage increases significantly with higher temperatures and longer heating times.
research Exogen Hairs in Women with and without Hair Loss
Women with and without hair loss have similar amounts of exogen hairs, so these hairs are not a key factor in hair loss conditions.
research Quantitative trichoscopic analysis of hair density in people attending tertiary care hospital – A cross-sectional study
Hair density decreases with age, especially in the 60s.
research Hdac1 and Hdac2 regulate the quiescent state and survival of hair-follicle mesenchymal niche
Hdac1 and Hdac2 help maintain and protect the cells that control hair growth.
research Hair follicle culture—a historical perspective
Advancements in hair follicle culture have led to better understanding and potential treatments for hair loss.
research Hair Follicles: Strategic Targets for Promoting Hair Growth
Targeting hair follicles can effectively promote hair growth and treat hair disorders.
research Investigation of the Changes in the Hair Cuticle Due to Chemical Degradation
Chemical treatments severely damage hair cuticles, especially in previously treated hair.
research Reimagining Hair Science: A New Approach to Classify Curly Hair Phenotypes via New Quantitative Geometrical & Structural Mechanical Parameters
New methods to classify curly hair types were developed based on shape and strength.
research Integrated Analysis of miRNAs and mRNA Profiling Reveals the Potential Role of miRNAs in Sheep Hair Follicle Development
Certain miRNAs may play a role in sheep hair follicle development, which could help improve wool production.
