research Arachidonate 12-Lipoxygenase Inhibitors Promote S100A3 Citrullination in Cultured SW480 Cells and Isolated Hair Follicles
Inhibiting ALOX12 can help hair cuticle maturation by increasing S100A3 citrullination.
research Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research Inherited Disorders of the Hair
The document explains the genetic causes and characteristics of inherited hair disorders.
research Tissue homeostasis
Humans have limited regenerative abilities, but new evidence shows the adult brain and heart can regenerate, and future treatments may improve this by mimicking stem cell environments.
research Non-invasive human skin transcriptome analysis using mRNA in skin surface lipids
The conclusion is that analyzing RNA from skin oils is a promising way to understand skin diseases.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Hair-raising Mysteries of the Inner Root Sheath: Unearthing Treasures in Bald Spots
The inner root sheath in hair follicles plays a key role in hair growth and health.
research Rhamnose-mediated modulation of hair follicle growth: insights from chemical genomics
Rhamnose may help hair growth and pigmentation, making it a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Case report: Exploring autosomal recessive woolly hair: genetic and scanning electron microscopic perspectives on a Japanese patient
A genetic mutation in the LIPH gene causes tightly curled hair that stops growing in some Japanese individuals.
research Androgen excess: a hallmark of polycystic ovary syndrome
Excess androgens may cause PCOS, not just be a symptom.
research Hair Disorders
Understanding normal hair growth and loss in children is key to diagnosing and treating hair disorders.
research Hair Changes Caused by Aging
Aging causes hair to gray and thin, with the timing of graying varying by race, and factors like oxidative stress and genetics can lead to hair loss.
research Editors' Picks
New findings suggest targeting IL-23 could treat psoriasis, skin cells can adapt to new roles, direct conversion of skin cells to blood cells may aid cell therapy, removing certain tumor cells could boost cancer immunotherapy, and melanoma may have many tumorigenic cells, not just cancer stem cells.
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 The hair cycle and its regulation
Hormones, nutrition, and seasonal changes regulate hair growth cycles, with androgens extending growth phases and factors like aging and malnutrition affecting hair loss and thinning.
research Involucrin, but not filaggrin and Kdap mRNA, expression is downregulated in 3-D cultures of intact rat hair bulbs after calcium stimulation
Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research Hair Physiology (Hair Growth, Alopecia, Scalp Treatment, etc.)
The document concludes that new treatments for hair loss may involve a combination of cosmetics, clinical methods, and genetic approaches.
research Regenerative Hair Transplantation with Autologous Mesenchymal Cells from The Scalp (Regenerative Hair Transplantation)
Using scalp stem cells can improve hair transplants.
research Is Trichoscopy A Reliable Method For Differantiation Of Frontal Non-Scarring Alopecias?
Trichoscopy is reliable for diagnosing different types of frontal non-scarring hair loss.
research Stimulation of hair regrowth in an animal model of androgenic alopecia using 2-deoxy-D-ribose
2-deoxy-D-ribose gel may help regrow hair in cases of hair loss.
research Keratins in health and cancer: more than mere epithelial cell markers
Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.

Turning white fat into brown-like fat could help fight obesity and type 2 diabetes.
research Penetration Profile of Microspheres in Follicular Targeting of Terminal Hair Follicles
Microspheres about 1.5 micrometers in size can best penetrate hair follicles, potentially reaching important stem cells.
research Fibroblast heterogeneity: implications for human disease
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in diseases and healing, and more research on them could improve treatments.
research Recent advances on the mechanisms of kidney stone formation (Review)
Kidney stones form due to factors like urine concentration, calcium deposits, hormones, gut bacteria, and immune response.
research First use of thymus transplantation therapy for FOXN1 deficiency (nude/SCID): a report of 2 cases
Thymus transplantation successfully restored immune function in infants with FOXN1 deficiency.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
