Researchers found that hair shedding happens mostly when new hair is growing and involves a unique process.
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 Doxil (Caelyx): an exploratory study with pharmacokinetics in patients with hormone-refractory prostate cancer
Doxil showed some effectiveness against advanced prostate cancer but caused severe side effects at higher doses.
research Thyrotropin releasing hormone (TRH): a new player in human hair‐growth control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata

research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Expression and roles of steroidogenic acute regulatory (StAR) protein in ‘non-classical’, extra-adrenal and extra-gonadal cells and tissues
The protein StAR is found in 17 different organs and can affect hair loss and brain functions, but its full role is not yet fully understood.

Most treatments for lichen planopilaris were found to be generally unsatisfactory.
research No Evidence that 2D:4D is Related to the Number of CAG Repeats in the Androgen Receptor Gene
Finger length ratios are not linked to the number of specific gene repeats affecting testosterone sensitivity.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
