research The Art of Mixing Follicular Units and Follicular Groupings in Hair Restoration Surgery
A hair restoration technique was introduced that mixes different types of hair groupings to reduce procedure time, limit damage, and potentially increase hair density, suggesting more hair can be transplanted than previously thought.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Effect of ethnicity and treatments on in situ tensile response and morphological changes of human hair characterized by atomic force microscopy
Different ethnicities and treatments affect human hair strength and structure.
research Drug-Induced Hair Disorders
Some drugs can cause hair loss, excessive growth, or color changes, often reversible but sometimes permanent.
research Low level light-minoxidil 5% combination versus either therapeutic modality alone in management of female patterned hair loss: A randomized controlled study
Combining low-level light therapy and minoxidil 5% is more effective for female hair loss than using either treatment alone.
research Female pattern hair loss
FPHL causes hair loss in women due to genetics and hormones; minoxidil and anti-androgens are treatments, and early intervention is advised.
research Metabolomic and lipidomic atlas of human hair across its length
Human hair contains many different molecules that change along its length, influenced by personal care products.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Love is in the hair: arginine methylation of human hair proteins as novel cardiovascular biomarkers
Human hair protein modifications could potentially indicate heart disease risk.
research British Hair and Nail Society
Men with a certain type of hair loss often use facial moisturizers, and a specific antibiotic treatment may help another hair condition.
research Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Derived Exosomes Rescue the Loss of Outer Hair Cells and Repair Cochlear Damage in Cisplatin-Injected Mice
Exosomes from umbilical cord cells fix hearing loss and damaged ear hair cells in mice.
research Placebo‐controlled dose‐effect studies with topical minoxidil 2% or 5% in male‐patterned hair loss treated with oral finasteride employing an analytical and exhaustive study protocol
Minoxidil 5% works better than 2% for hair growth in male-patterned hair loss.
research Neuroprotective and immunomodulatory effects of human hair follicle stem cells on streptozotocin-induced memory impairment in rats: insights into inflammation and neurotrophic mechanisms
Human hair follicle stem cells improved memory and brain health in rats.
research Age-Related Changes in Female Scalp Dermal Sheath and Dermal Fibroblasts: How the Hair Follicle Environment Impacts Hair Aging
Aging causes changes in the scalp that can affect hair growth and lead to older-looking hair in women.
research Female pattern hair loss: A clinical, pathophysiologic, and therapeutic review
No cure for female pattern hair loss, but various effective treatments exist.
research Serum Ferritin and Vitamin D in Female Hair Loss: Do They Play a Role?
Low iron and vitamin D levels are linked to hair loss in women.
research The effect of active hexose correlated compound in modulating cytosine arabinoside-induced hair loss, and 6-mercaptopurine- and methotrexate-induced liver injury in rodents
AHCC reduces hair loss and liver injury caused by chemotherapy in rodents.
research Rule-out test for autism using machine-learning analysis of molecular temporal dynamics in hair - a multicenter study
A machine-learning test using hair can help detect autism early in infants.
research Bee Venom Promotes Hair Growth in Association with Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Expression
Bee venom helps hair grow and may work better than some common treatments.
research Activation of the integrated stress response in human hair follicles
Blocking the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier causes stress in hair follicles, which can be reduced by an ISR inhibitor.
research Expression and Function of FGF5 Isoform in Hair Growth
Different forms of FGF5 either promote or inhibit hair growth.
research Fourth Nerve Palsy After Hair Replacement Surgery and Prolonged Vertical Position in a Patient With Mega-Cisterna-Magna: Report of a Case
A man developed an eye nerve issue after hair surgery due to prolonged upright posture affecting brain fluid balance.
research Mapping of cis-acting expression quantitative trait loci in human scalp hair follicles
Researchers identified genes in scalp hair follicles that may affect hair traits and hair loss.
research Mechanism of action of herbs and their active constituents used in hair loss treatment
Some herbs and their components might help treat hair loss by affecting various biological pathways, but more research and regulation are needed.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Trichoscopy and Tinea Capitis: Comma and Corkscrew Hairs
Trichoscopy helped diagnose and treat a child's fungal scalp infection by spotting specific hair shapes.
research Chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes temporary hair loss, which is distressing and needs better treatment and support.
