510-540 / 1000+ resultsresearch Immunology of the Human Nail Apparatus: The Nail Matrix Is a Site of Relative Immune Privilege
The nail matrix has a reduced immune response, protecting it from autoimmunity.
research Permanent scalp alopecia related to breast cancer chemotherapy by sequential fluorouracil/epirubicin/cyclophosphamide (FEC) and docetaxel: a prospective study of 20 patients
Some breast cancer chemotherapy can cause permanent hair loss.
research Feline pemphigus foliaceus: a retrospective analysis of 57 cases
Triamcinolone is more effective and safer for treating feline pemphigus foliaceus than prednisone.
research Generation and Characterization of Multipotent Stem Cells from Established Dermal Cultures
Human skin cells can be turned into versatile stem cells, but their ability to do so decreases with repeated use.
research Chronic telogen effluvium: A study of 5 patients over 7 years
Most patients with chronic hair shedding did not progress to permanent hair loss, and one showed improvement with treatment.
research Generalized trichoepitheliomas with alopecia and myasthenia gravis: Clinicopathologic and immunohistochemical study and comparison with classic and desmoplastic trichoepithelioma
Generalized trichoepitheliomas with hair loss may indicate myasthenia gravis.
research Cryo-Electron Microscopy of Trichocyte (Hard α-Keratin) Intermediate Filaments Reveals a Low-Density Core
Trichocyte filaments have a low-density core and may include proteins for hair structure.
research Immunohistochemical Study of Calretinin in Normal Skin and Cutaneous Adnexal Proliferations
Calretinin can help identify certain skin structures and tumors.
research Effects of cyclosporine A on clinical and histologic abnormalities in dogs with sebaceous adenitis
Cyclosporine A can reduce inflammation in dogs with sebaceous adenitis, but ongoing treatment is needed.
research Alopecia associated with syringomas
The report suggests a possible link between hair loss and hidden scalp tumors but states more evidence is needed to confirm this.
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
research Comparative aspects of the inner root sheath in adult and developing hairs of mammals in relation to the evolution of hairs
The inner root sheath evolved to help hair grow safely through the skin in mammals.
research Follicular ichthyosis
The four patients have a unique type of ichthyosis affecting hair follicles.
research Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in the Scalp of the Stumptail Macaque Monkey, a Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen receptors found in monkey scalps, similar to humans, affect hair growth.
research Histologic Changes in Seborrheic Keratoses after Rubbing
Rubbing seborrheic keratoses causes specific skin changes and may link them to hair follicles.
research Miniaturization of sebaceous glands: A novel histopathological finding in pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus of the scalp
People with pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus often have smaller sebaceous glands on their scalp.
research Histopathological investigation of clinically non‐affected perilesional scalp in alopecias detected unexpected spread of disease activities
Scalp areas that look normal in people with hair loss may still show signs of disease under a microscope.
research Chronic telogen effluvium: Potential complication for clinical trials in female androgenetic alopecia?
CTE can distort results in hair growth trials, so exclude it carefully.
research Expression and localization of A rtemis serine 516 phosphorylation in human scalp skin
Artemis phosphorylation at Ser516 may help regulate skin and hair structures.
research Morphological characteristics and notes of the skin in preclinical toxicity assessment
Skin structure complexity and variability are crucial for assessing skin toxicity in safety tests.
research Trichoblastic Carcinoma
Trichoblastic carcinoma may be a distinct type of skin cancer different from basal cell carcinoma.
research Immunohistochemical study assessing stem cell factor receptor C-kit in patients with alopecia
People with alopecia have shorter hair follicles and more c-kit, a stem cell factor receptor, which could predict how the condition progresses.
research Expression of collagen type I, skin fibroblasts and macrophages after 1550 nm erbium glass fractional laser in androgenic alopecia
The 1550 nm fractional Er:Glass laser improved hair regrowth in patients with androgenic alopecia, but didn't significantly change collagen type I, skin fibroblasts, or macrophages. More research is needed for optimal results.

Ectoparasites cause skin issues in Egyptian lesser blind mole rats, affecting their population.
research Inflammatory and non-melanocytic tumoral pathology of the nail
The document concludes that understanding nail anatomy is key for diagnosing nail diseases, early signs of nail melanoma may allow for less aggressive treatment, and specific genetic mutations are important in thyroid cancer prognosis and treatment.
research Genetics of thyroid lesions updated
RET mutation is important in familial medullary thyroid carcinoma, and BRAF mutation in papillary thyroid carcinoma is linked to more aggressive cancer and higher death rates.
research Erythropoietin induces insulin-like growth factor-1 from three-dimensional culture of human dermal papilla cells
Erythropoietin can promote hair growth by increasing IGF-1 in hair cells.
