research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Dermal sheath contraction powers stem cell niche relocation during hair cycle regression.
The dermal sheath's contraction is crucial for hair follicle regression and stem cell relocation.
research Do follicles matter? Testing the effect of follicles on hair cortisol levels
Hair follicles increase hair cortisol levels, so consistent hair collection methods are important.
research Data for the article "Increased calcidiol level in redhaired people: Could redheadedness be an adaptation to temperate climate?"
Redheaded people have higher levels of vitamin D precursor, suggesting their hair color may be an adaptation to low sunlight areas.

research Hair-Based Assessment of Sex Steroid Hormones in Patients with Anorexia Nervosa
Hair analysis shows low progesterone in anorexia patients, unchanged by short-term weight gain.
research Daily Circle of Calcium Concentration in Hair Observed by X-ray Fluorescence Analysis
Hair can show daily calcium changes, linked to body calcium levels and influenced by hormones, and can help assess calcium metabolism issues.
research VDR is an essential regulator of hair follicle regression through the progression of cell death
Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for hair follicle shrinkage and cell death, affecting hair growth.
research Establishment of a new three‐dimensional human epidermal model reconstructed from plucked hair follicle‐derived keratinocytes

research Human Hairless Protein Roles in Skin/Hair and Emerging Connections to Brain and Other Cancers
The hairless protein is important for skin, hair, and may influence cancer development.
research Hair for brain trade-off, a metabolic bypass for encephalization
Human hair loss may have evolved to help increase brain size.
research Mapping the hair density, thickness, and volume in normal and androgenetic alopecia subjects with the digital microscope
Hair density and thickness decrease in specific scalp areas in people with androgenetic alopecia.
research Integral characterization of normal and alopecic hair at different degeneration stages by in-situ visible and chemical imaging
Alopecic hair has more irregular structures and chemical changes than normal hair, reducing its strength.
research Physical Properties of Human Hair. 1. Evaluation of Bending Stress by Measuring the Major and the Minor Axis of Human Hair.
The cuticle significantly contributes to hair stiffness, making up about 60% of the total bending stress.
research Hair density, hair diameter and the prevalence of female pattern hair loss
Hair loss caused by longer latent hair cycle and sudden miniaturization, not gradual follicle size reduction.
