research The Contributory Roles of Th17 Lymphocyte and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte at the Hair Bulge Region as Well as the Hair Bulb Area in the Chronic Alopecia Areata Patients
Certain immune cells contribute to severe hair loss in chronic alopecia areata, with Th17 cells possibly having a bigger impact than cytotoxic T cells.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Live imaging of stem cell and progeny behaviour in physiological hair-follicle regeneration.
The conclusion is that the dermal papilla is crucial for hair follicle regrowth, and hair follicles undergo significant structural changes in addition to cell division during regeneration.

Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Exploring the Differentiation Abilities of Hair Follicle and Dental Pulp Stem Cells Into Islet Like Cells
Hair follicle stem cells are better than dental pulp stem cells at becoming insulin-producing cells, useful for diabetes therapy.
research Post Menopausal Hyperandrogenism: A Case of a Steroid Cell Tumor of the Ovary
A woman's severe hormone imbalance after menopause led to finding a rare ovarian tumor, treated by surgery.
research A Subset of TREM2+ Dermal Macrophages Secretes Oncostatin M to Maintain Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Inhibit Hair Growth
Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.
research Cytokeratin expression in trichoblastic fibroma (small nodular type trichoblastoma), trichoepithelioma and basal cell carcinoma
Trichoblastic fibroma and basal cell carcinoma are similar but different from trichoepithelioma.
research Cellular Activity in the Dermis Surrounding the Hair Bulb in Alopecia Areata
Hair growth in alopecia areata is hindered due to impaired cell activity in the surrounding tissue.
