research Hair anatomy for the clinician
Understanding hair follicle anatomy helps diagnose hair disorders.
research It's not all traction: the pseudo ‘fringe sign’ in frontal fibrosing alopecia
The pseudo 'fringe sign' can also appear in frontal fibrosing alopecia, not just in traction alopecia, showing that this condition may be more common than thought.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Pigmented Hair-Thickening Fibers: A Camouflage Technique for Alopecia in Patients with Epidermolysis Bullosa
Colored hair-thickening fibers can help hide hair loss in some people with Epidermolysis Bullosa but may cause scalp irritation.
research Cell proliferation during fibre growth initiation in ferret hair follicles
Ferret hair growth starts between 0 and 4 days after melatonin treatment, with cell growth peaking in the hair germ and declining as the hair matures.
