research Genetic Variation at the MC1R Locus and the Time since Loss of Human Body Hair
Humans lost body hair relatively recently in evolution.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research Air Pollution, Autophagy, and Skin Aging: Impact of Particulate Matter (PM10) on Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Air pollution (PM10) increases skin inflammation and aging by reducing collagen and may trigger a repair response in skin cells.
research Recent positive selection of a human androgen receptor/ectodysplasin A2 receptor haplotype and its relationship to male pattern baldness
A specific genetic mutation may increase male pattern baldness risk, especially in Europeans.
research Human genetic basis of coronavirus disease 2019
Genetic differences affect COVID-19 severity and treatment development.
research Androgenetic alopecia is associated with increased arterial stiffness in asymptomatic young adults
Young adults with hair loss face higher risk of stiff arteries.
research Adult‐onset hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retrievers: a clinical and histological study
Chesapeake Bay retrievers' hair loss is likely a breed-specific, hereditary condition linked to abnormal steroid levels and distinct skin changes.
research Love is in the hair: arginine methylation of human hair proteins as novel cardiovascular biomarkers
Human hair protein modifications could potentially indicate heart disease risk.
research Anti-Androgen Therapy in Female Adult Acne
Anti-androgens are safe and effective for treating moderate to severe adult female acne.
research The Human Suffering caused by bomb containing White Phosphorus: Health Effects
White phosphorus bombs cause severe physical and emotional harm.
research Epidemiological Assessment of Testosterone Levels in Women Population: A Factorial Analysis of Cell Proliferation
High testosterone levels in 20% of the women studied may indicate PCOS, while 80% had low levels with potential health impacts.
research Human Hair as a Testing Substrate in the Era of Precision Medicine: Potential Role of ‘Omics-Based Approaches
Human hair shows promise for non-invasive medical testing, but more research is needed to standardize its use.
research Antiviral effects of human placenta hydrolysate (Laennec®) against SARS-CoV-2 in vitro and in the ferret model
Human placenta hydrolysate may help treat COVID-19 by reducing virus replication and boosting immune response.
research Adult Acne: Prevalence and Portrayal in Primary Healthcare Patients, in the Greater Porto Area, Portugal
Many adults in Porto have acne, but few know or treat it.
research Androgens and human hair growth
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Thy1 marks a distinct population of slow-cycling stem cells in the mouse epidermis
A specific group of slow-growing stem cells marked by Thy1 is crucial for skin maintenance and healing in mice.
research Epigenetic control of adult stem cell function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy
PRP injections may be a safe, effective alternative for hair loss treatment compared to minoxidil and finasteride.
research Safe Selection of Genetically Manipulated Human Primary Keratinocytes with Very High Growth Potential Using CD24
Researchers found a safe and effective way to pick genetically modified skin cells with high growth potential using CD24.
research Divergent proliferation patterns of distinct human hair follicle epithelial progenitor niches in situ and their differential responsiveness to prostaglandin D2
Different human hair follicle stem cells grow at different rates and respond differently to a baldness-related compound.
research Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis
Stem cells help heal wounds by rapidly dividing and migrating to the wound edge.
research The human hair: from anatomy to physiology
The document concludes that hair is complex, with a detailed growth cycle, structure, and clinical importance, affecting various scientific and medical fields.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
