research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Cells within the bulge region of mouse hair follicle transiently proliferate during early anagen: heterogeneity and functional differences of various hair cycles
Mouse hair follicle cells briefly grow during the early hair growth phase, showing that these cells are important for starting the hair cycle.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Exogen, Shedding Phase of the Hair Growth Cycle: Characterization of a Mouse Model
Researchers found that hair shedding happens mostly when new hair is growing and involves a unique process.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Self-assembly of dermal papilla cells into inductive spheroidal microtissues on poly(ethylene-co-vinyl alcohol) membranes for hair follicle regeneration
EVAL membranes help create cell structures that can regrow hair follicles.
research A Review: The Location, Molecular Characterisation and Multipotency of Hair Follicle Epidermal Stem Cells
Hair follicle stem cells are mainly in the bulge region and can help repair skin and form hair and glands, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
research Glutamine Metabolism Controls Stem Cell Fate Reversibility and Long-Term Maintenance in the Hair Follicle
Glutamine metabolism affects hair stem cell maintenance and their ability to change back to stem cells.
research A splice variant in KRT71 is associated with curly coat phenotype of Selkirk Rex cats
A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
research Assessment of vitamin D receptors in alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia
Low vitamin D receptor levels found in hair loss patients; topical vitamin D treatment suggested.
research Normal and Aging Hair Biology and Structure ‘Aging and Hair'
Hair gets thinner, grayer, and changes texture with age due to genetics, environment, and cellular changes, affecting the growth cycle.
research Angiogenin is expressed in human dermal papilla cells and stimulates hair growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
research The removal of unwanted hair using a ruby laser
Ruby laser hair removal significantly reduces hair density.
research Enhanced effect of fibroblast growth factor-2-containing dalteparin/protamine nanoparticles on hair growth
FGF-2&D/P nanoparticles can help treat hair loss.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Notoedric mange in free‐ranging masked palm civets (Paguma larvata) in Japan
Some masked palm civets in Japan have a skin disease caused by mites.
research Safety of low‐dose oral minoxidil treatment for hair loss. A systematic review and pooled‐analysis of individual patient data
Low-dose oral minoxidil is a safe treatment for hair loss, with the main side effect being excessive hair growth. Other side effects like foot swelling, low blood pressure when standing, and heart rate changes are rare.
research Low fluence-high repetition rate diode laser hair removal 12-month evaluation: Reducing pain and risks while keeping clinical efficacy
A low-power, fast laser safely reduces hair with minimal pain and few side effects.
research Activity of type 1 5α-reductase is greater in the follicular infrainfundibulum compared with the epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Caffeine and Its Pharmacological Benefits in the Management of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Caffeine improves hair growth, thickness, and reduces shedding.
research Characterization of follicular minoxidil sulfotransferase activity in a cohort of pattern hair loss patients from the Indian Subcontinent
About 41% of Indian hair loss patients have low enzyme activity that affects hair loss treatment effectiveness, with men affected more than women. Testing for this can guide treatment.
research Isolation and Quantification of Glycosaminoglycans from Human Hair Shaft
Human hair contains more glycosaminoglycans in children than adults, and these compounds decrease with age, possibly affecting hair thickness.
research Cyclical dermal micro-niche switching governs the morphological infradian rhythm of mouse zigzag hair
Mouse zigzag hair bends form due to a 3-day cycle of changes in hair progenitors and their environment.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes hair loss, which usually grows back within 3 to 6 months, but there's no effective treatment to prevent it.
research Clinical evidence for JAK inhibition in alopecia areata: A comprehensive review
JAK inhibitors effectively regrow hair in alopecia areata but hair loss often returns after stopping treatment.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Therapy Update
There are many treatments for common hair loss, but more trials are needed to decide which are best.
research Hair and Scalp Variation Related to Gender
Gender affects hair and scalp characteristics, with differences in hormone responses, graying patterns, and trace metals.
