research Correlation between trichoscopic findings and disease severity in female-pattern hair loss
Trichoscopy is essential for early detection and monitoring of female-pattern hair loss.
research Antroquinonol Exerts Immunosuppressive Effect on CD8+ T Cell Proliferation and Activation to Resist Depigmentation Induced by H2O2
Antroquinonol may help prevent skin depigmentation by suppressing certain immune cells.
research Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
Hair has unevenly distributed proteins and lipids, with lipids mainly in the cuticle and proteins in the cortex and medulla.
research Clinical, trichoscopic, and histopathologic characteristics of patients with alopecia and hypothyroidism: An observational study

Thiol/disulfide balance is normal in male AGA patients but shifts towards oxidative stress with emotional stress and low vitamin D.
research A Nonrandomized study of trichoscopy patterns using nonpolarized (contact) and polarized (noncontact) dermatoscopy in hair and shaft disorders
Polarized dermoscopy is slightly better than nonpolarized for diagnosing hair disorders, with each method having its own strengths.
research Autophagy and Premature Graying of Hair: The Role of LC3 as a Biomarker in a Case-Control Study
Increased LC3 gene expression may be linked to premature graying of hair.
