Advances in genetics may lead to targeted treatments for hair disorders.

Cryopreserved mouse whisker follicles can grow hair when transplanted into nude mice.

HAP stem cells can repair nerves, grow hair follicle nerves, and become heart muscle cells, making them useful for regenerative medicine.

Painful hair loss in an elderly woman was caused by giant cell arteritis, not just aging.

Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.

Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition causing a bumpy texture, sometimes linked to other diseases, with various treatments available.

Anifrolumab improves quality of life and reduces steroid use in SLE patients.

Understanding hair follicle development can help treat hair loss, skin regeneration, and certain skin cancers.

Some wound-healing cells can turn into fat cells around new hair growth in mice.

Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.

Hair follicles help attract immune cells to the skin during stress.

Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.

Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.

Dermoscopy is a useful tool for identifying features of skin conditions, but more research is needed to define its role in dermatology.

Men with baldness due to androgenetic alopecia still have hair stem cells, but lack specific cells needed for hair growth.

Use minoxidil for hair loss; finasteride and dutasteride for men, dutasteride for women.

Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.

Hair loss in men is common, treatable, but not curable.

The hairless (hr) gene is essential for normal hair follicle function and its mutation leads to hair loss.

Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.

Taxane chemotherapy can cause skin, hair, and nail side effects, which are often under-reported and can affect patient quality of life.

Hair loss in men treated best with early medication or transplant, new treatments researched.

Scientists created stem cells that can grow hair and skin.
