30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Mechanical stimuli-induced CCL2 restores adult mouse cells to regenerate hair follicles
Mechanical stimuli and CCL2 can help regenerate hair follicles in adult mice.
research Two distinct signaling pathways in hair cycle induction: Stat3-dependent and -independent pathways
There are two ways to start hair growth: one needs Stat3 and the other does not, but both need PI3K activation.
research Comprehensive clinical management of hirsutism
New treatments for excessive hair growth in women include insulin modulators and enzyme inhibitors.
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 Mechanical stretch induces hair regeneration through the alternative activation of macrophages
Mechanical stretching of the skin can promote hair growth by activating certain immune cells.
research THBS4 promotes hair regeneration by inducing dermal mechanical niche adaptation
THBS4 helps hair grow by activating hair follicle stem cells.
research Idiopathic hirsutism: excessive bodily and facial hair in women
Idiopathic hirsutism causes excessive hair growth in women, can be treated with medication and hair removal, but cannot be fully reversed.
research Regeneration of hair and other skin appendages: A microenvironment‐centric view
The microenvironment, especially mechanical forces, plays a crucial role in hair growth and could lead to new treatments for hair loss.
research Environmental and Cosmetic Factors in Hair Loss and Destruction
Environmental and cosmetic factors, including heat, chemicals, and sun exposure, can cause hair loss and damage.
research The impact of different hair‐removal behaviours on the biophysical and biochemical characteristics of female axillary skin
All hair removal methods irritate underarm skin and cause dryness, with shaving being less irritating but more drying than plucking or waxing.
research The action of a cosmetic hair treatment on follicle function
The hair treatment made hair grow faster and thicker and strengthened the hair roots.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that hirsutism can be managed with various treatments tailored to the individual, potentially improving quality of life.
research The evaluation and management of hirsutism*1
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have skin problems like excessive hair, acne, hair loss, and dark patches, which can be treated with hormonal and non-hormonal therapies.
research Decision letter: Hair follicle epidermal stem cells define a niche for tactile sensation
Hair follicle stem cells are crucial for touch sensation and proper nerve structure in mice.
research Hirsutism and Quality of Life
Hirsutism can lower a woman's quality of life, causing emotional distress and affecting social and work opportunities.
research Hair shaft miniaturization causes stem cell depletion through mechanosensory signals mediated by a Piezo1-calcium-TNF-α axis
Hair thinning causes stem cell loss through a process involving Piezo1, calcium, and TNF-α.
research Deciphering principles of morphogenesis from temporal and spatial patterns on the integument
The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
research Minoxidil is a potential neuroprotective drug for paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy
Minoxidil may protect nerves and improve hair quality during paclitaxel treatment.
research Hair removal
Current hair removal methods improve appearance but need more research for better options.
research The effectiveness of waxing or epilation compared to conventional methods of hair removal in reducing the incidence of surgical site infections: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Waxing and epilation might help wound healing, but more research is needed.
research Tissue Mechanics in Haired Murine Skin: Potential Implications for Skin Aging
Older mice have stiffer skin with less elasticity due to changes in collagen and skin structure, affecting aging and hair loss.
research Trichotillometry: the quantitation of hair pluckability as a method of nutritional
Malnourished people have weaker hair that is easier to pluck.
research Studies of normal moult and of artifically induced regeneration of pelage in peromyscus
Artificially inducing hair regrowth in mice can change the normal pattern and timing of hair growth, with minimal color differences between old and new fur.
research Targeting hirsutism: a new approach*1
Eflornithine cream effectively reduces facial hair in women with hirsutism.
research Hair reduction: 48 months of experience with 800nm diode laser
An 800nm diode laser safely and effectively reduces hair for about 8 months, with most patients satisfied and few side effects.
research Exogen involves gradual release of the hair club fibre in the vibrissa follicle model
Hair sheds gradually from the follicle, with readiness to shed indicated by less attachment material.
