Stem cell self-renewal is complex and needs more research for full understanding.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research Clobetasol propionate 0.05% under occlusion in the treatment of alopecia totalis/universalis
Clobetasol propionate ointment can help some people with total hair loss regrow hair.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Histopathology of non-scarring alopecia
The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Thallium poisoning. Diagnosis may be elusive but alopecia is the clue.
Alopecia is a key indicator of thallium poisoning.
research Biology of the wool follicle: an excursion into a unique tissue interaction system waiting to be re‐discovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research A PAX1 enhancer locus is associated with susceptibility to idiopathic scoliosis in females
A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.
research Systemic Steroids With or Without 2% Topical Minoxidil in the Treatment of Alopecia Areata
Steroids help hair regrowth, and minoxidil slows post-steroid hair loss, but effects are temporary.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Trichoscopy in alopecias: Diagnosis simplified
Trichoscopy is a useful, non-invasive way to diagnose different types of hair loss.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia

research Follicular and percutaneous penetration pathways of topically applied minoxidil foam
Minoxidil foam enters hair follicles and skin for hair growth.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Follicular Transplantation
Careful planning and patient counseling can lead to excellent hair transplant results, often in one or two sessions.
research Scalp Dermoscopy or Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a quick, noninvasive method to diagnose hair and scalp disorders, often reducing the need for biopsies.
research Non-Edg family LPA receptors: the cutting edge of LPA research
New LPA receptors (LPA4, LPA5, LPA6) have diverse roles in the body.
research Telogen effluvium
Chronic Telogen Effluvium may resolve after years and is diagnosed by examining the patient's history and clinical signs, with treatment aimed at underlying causes and possibly minoxidil.
research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research The Aesthetics of Follicular Transplantation
The document concludes that good cosmetic outcomes in hair transplantation depend on the surgeon's artistic skill and careful planning.
