research Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 and Hair Biology: Bridging Basic Science and Therapeutic Applications
FGF-7 helps hair grow by activating hair follicles and is a promising target for hair loss treatments.
research Feature characterization of scarring and non-scarring types of alopecia by multiphoton microscopy
Multiphoton microscopy can non-invasively tell apart scarring from non-scarring hair loss and could aid in treatment.
research Alopecia areata: Animal models illuminate autoimmune pathogenesis and novel immunotherapeutic strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
research Development and evaluation of finasteride loaded ethosomes for targeting to the pilosebaceous unit
Finasteride-loaded ethosomes improve hair loss treatment by targeting pilosebaceous unit.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research Stem Cell: Current and Future State
Stem cells show promise for hair loss treatment, but no effective product for hair regeneration has been developed yet.
research PERAN KELENJAR SEBASEA PADA ALOPESIA ANDROGENIK
The sebaceous gland plays a significant role in hair loss and thinning, and using growth stimulators, DHT inhibitors, anti-inflammatory drugs, anti-androgens, and super oxide dismuse substances can help manage it.
research Non-scarring alopecia in systemic lupus erythematosus patients at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital: a cross-sectional study of prevalence, pattern, trichoscopy features and histopathological analysis
Non-scarring hair loss is common in lupus patients and can be diagnosed with specific hair and tissue tests.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2019
The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.
research CDK4/6 inhibition mitigates stem cell damage in a novel model for taxane‐induced alopecia
CDK4/6 inhibitors can protect hair cells from chemotherapy damage.
research Dermal Papilla Cells: From Basic Research to Translational Applications
Dermal papilla cells can help regrow hair and are promising for hair loss treatments.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Disorders of the Scalp and Hair
Different scalp and hair disorders are more common in certain ethnic groups, with the most common being androgenetic alopecia, which is treated with medications like minoxidil and finasteride.
research A Study of the androgen receptor gene polymorphism and the level of expression of the androgen receptor in androgenetic alopecia among Egyptians
The study suggests that a specific gene variation and higher gene activity are linked to increased baldness in Egyptian men.
research mTORC1 activity negatively regulates human hair follicle growth and pigmentation
High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
research Scalp hair diameter increases during pregnancy
Pregnant women's hair gets thicker.
research Histologic Study of the Regeneration Process of Human Hair Follicles Grafted onto SCID Mice after Bulb Amputation
Human hair follicles can regenerate and recover after severe injury by going through a brief abnormal resting phase before growing again.
research Histology of the Human Hair Follicle
Understanding hair follicle structure is key for treating hair disorders and could help develop new treatments.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Hair, Human Evolution, and the Idea of Human Uniqueness
Human hair is unique and important for understanding human evolution and identity.
research The role of dexamethasone in mediating the contradictory effects of Wnt antagonists SFRP2 and SFRP3 on human hair follicle growth
Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride helps hair growth by decreasing cell death in hair follicles.
research Effects of Finasteride on Apoptosis and Regulation of the Human Hair Cycle
Finasteride affects hair growth by changing caspase and XIAP levels, potentially treating hair diseases.
research Hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent: an overview
The document concludes that clinicians should be aware of common hair and scalp disorders in women of African descent and that more research is needed to develop effective treatments.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Alterations in Hair Follicle Morphology and Hair Shaft Production After Follicular Unit Transplantation
Hair transplants can make hair follicles larger and hair shafts thicker.
