research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Old Wine in New Bottles: Reviving Old Therapies for Alopecia Areata Using Rodent Models
Old treatments for other skin conditions showed promise for hair regrowth in mice with a hair loss condition.
research Transplants from balding and hairy androgenetic alopecia scalp regrow hair comparably well on immunodeficient mice
Hair from balding and non-balding areas regrows similarly on mice.
research Pustular allergic contact dermatitis from topical minoxidil 5%
A man had an allergic reaction to minoxidil, which stopped after he discontinued use and started corticosteroids.

research Bee Venom Promotes Hair Growth in Association with Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Expression
Bee venom helps hair grow and may work better than some common treatments.
research The River of Stem Cells
The document concludes that certain chemicals can help maintain stem cell pluripotency and that understanding cell states is crucial for tissue regeneration.
research Computerized morphometry and three-dimensional image reconstruction in the evaluation of scalp biopsy from patients with non-cicatricial alopecias
The study suggests computer-assisted analysis of scalp biopsies could improve hair loss diagnosis but needs more validation.
research Alopecia and Hirsuties
The document concludes that treatments for female hair loss and excessive hair growth are temporary and not well-studied.
research Serum level of interleukin-15 in active alopecia areata patients and its relation to age, sex, and disease severity
Higher interleukin-15 levels are linked to more severe alopecia areata, but not to age or gender.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Female pattern hair loss treatments vary in effectiveness and may have side effects.
research Cell and Tissue Damage after Skin Exposure to Ionizing Radiation: Short- and Long-Term Effects after a Single and Fractional Doses
Ionizing radiation causes irreversible skin damage, with single doses leading to acute injury and hair graying, and fractional doses causing more severe long-term tissue damage.
research Comprehensive clinical management of hirsutism
New treatments for excessive hair growth in women include insulin modulators and enzyme inhibitors.
research Androgenic Alopecia
The document concludes that treating female hair loss should target reducing excess androgen and blocking its effects on hair follicles, with the best treatments being hormonal therapy, adrenal suppression, and topical minoxidil.
research Promotion of Hair Growth by Conditioned Medium from Extracellular Matrix/Stromal Vascular Fraction Gel in C57BL/6 Mice
A substance from a specific gel helped to grow hair effectively in mice, suggesting it could potentially be used to treat hair loss in humans.
research 3,4,5-Tri-O-Caffeoylquinic Acid Promoted Hair Pigmentation Through β-Catenin and Its Target Genes
A substance called TCQA could potentially darken hair by activating certain genes and increasing melanin.
research Co-loading of finasteride and baicalin in phospholipid vesicles tailored for the treatment of hair disorders
Finasteride and baicalin in phospholipid vesicles effectively promote hair growth and increase follicle count.
research Topically Applied Nicotinamide Inhibits Human Hair Follicle Growth Ex Vivo
Nicotinamide applied to the scalp can slow down hair growth.
