research Long-term physiological trends and their drivers: linking hair hormone concentrations with telemetry data in GPS-collared Serengeti wildebeest
Wildebeest stress and hormone levels are influenced by food availability, human presence, and reproductive cycles.
research Topical botanical extract for management of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
A botanical extract may help manage hair loss from chemotherapy by preventing cell death in hair follicles.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Epidermal Wnt/beta-catenin signalling promotes dermal adipocyte differentiation during hair follicle morphogenesis and regeneration
Wnt/beta-catenin signaling in the skin helps fat cell development during hair growth and repair.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Understanding the functional contribution of dermal stem cells to hair follicle regeneration and skin wound healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.
research Kenogen in Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Kenogen increases with hair loss in women.
research Androgenic effects of oral contraceptives: Implications for patient compliance
Newer low-dose oral contraceptives with less androgenic effects improve patient compliance.
research CONTRACEPTION AND THE SKIN
Birth control pills can cause skin issues but may help with acne and hirsutism, and choosing the right type can minimize side effects.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS treatment should address both symptoms and metabolic risks, starting with lifestyle changes and possibly including medication.
research Genetic analysis of a novel antioxidant multi-target iron chelator, M30 protecting against chemotherapy-induced alopecia in mice
M30 is a promising treatment for preventing hair loss during chemotherapy.
research A missing piece: the spiny mouse and the puzzle of menstruating species
The spiny mouse is a unique menstruating rodent that can help us understand menstruation and reproductive disorders.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists, American College of Endocrinology, and Androgen Excess and PCOS Society Disease State Clinical Review: Guide to the Best Practices in the Evaluation and Treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome - Part 1
The guide recommends specific methods for diagnosing PCOS and various treatments for its symptoms, while considering the health impacts on adolescents.
research Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Eating 500 fewer calories a day and making lifestyle changes can improve PCOS symptoms and reduce diabetes risk; more research is needed on its causes and treatments.
research Ferreting out stem cells from their niches
New methods have greatly improved our understanding of stem cell behavior and roles in the body.
research Revisiting dandruff
Dandruff is mainly caused by a scalp reaction to yeast, can worsen hair loss, and antifungal treatments may help.
research Acne keloidalis nuchae: prevalence, impact, and management challenges
Acne keloidalis nuchae is a tough-to-treat condition that greatly affects quality of life, especially in men of African descent.
research Sulphation catalysed by the human cytosolic sulphotransferases - chemical defence or molecular terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Seasonality of Hair Shedding in Healthy Women Complaining of Hair Loss
Healthy women tend to lose more hair in July and April, and the least in February.
research Photobiomodulation devices for hair regrowth and wound healing: a therapy full of promise but a literature full of confusion
Photobiomodulation may help with hair growth and wound healing, but research is inconsistent and needs better quality studies.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research A Critical Assessment of the Evidence for Low-Level Laser Therapy in the Treatment of Hair Loss
The evidence for using Low-Level Laser Therapy for hair loss is limited and more thorough research is needed.
research Signalling couples hair follicle stem cell quiescence with reduced histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 for proper tissue homeostasis
Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
research Contemporary medical therapy for polycystic ovary syndrome
New treatments for PCOS focus on insulin resistance and reducing testosterone levels, along with traditional hormone therapies.
research Culture of the human pilosebaceous unit, hair follicle and sebaceous gland
The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cell behavior by the niche microenvironment
The environment around melanocyte stem cells is key for hair regeneration and color, with certain injuries affecting hair color and potential treatments for pigmentation disorders.
research The HPV16 oncogenes cause aberrant stem cell mobilization
