research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research Minoxidil in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Minoxidil helps treat pattern hair loss in both men and women.
research L ‐Carnitine–L ‐tartrate promotes human hair growth in vitro
L-Carnitine-L-tartrate may help hair grow and prevent hair loss.
research Hair removal using a long-pulsed alexandrite laser.
The long-pulsed alexandrite laser is effective for hair reduction, particularly for light-skinned individuals with dark hair, but caution is needed for darker skin.
research The hair follicle enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Nuclear Factor I-C Regulates TGF-β-dependent Hair Follicle Cycling*
Nuclear Factor I-C is important for controlling hair growth by affecting the TGF-β1 pathway.
research Feature characterization of scarring and non-scarring types of alopecia by multiphoton microscopy
Multiphoton microscopy can non-invasively tell apart scarring from non-scarring hair loss and could aid in treatment.
research Eyelash trichomegaly: review of congenital, acquired, and drug‐associated etiologies for elongation of the eyelashes
The document concludes that eyelash trichomegaly, which is the abnormal growth of eyelashes, can be present from birth, caused by diseases, or result from certain medications.
research Enhancement of percutaneous absorption of Finasteride by cosolvents, cosurfactant and surfactants
Transcutol P best increases Finasteride absorption for hair loss treatment.
research Targeted transfollicular delivery of artocarpin extract from Artocarpus incisus by means of microparticles
Microparticles containing artocarpin extract could effectively treat hair loss and acne with minimal side effects.
research Biological characterization of cultured dermal papilla cells and hair follicle regeneration in vitro and in vivo
Cultured dermal papilla cells can regenerate hair follicles and sustain hair growth.
research Dihydrotestosterone-induced hair regrowth inhibition by activating androgen receptor in C57BL6 mice simulates androgenetic alopecia
DHT stops hair regrowth in mice, similar to human hair loss.
research Immunology of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Wnt1a maintains characteristics of dermal papilla cells that induce mouse hair regeneration in a 3D preculture system
Wnt1a helps keep cells that can grow hair effective for potential hair loss treatments.
research Alopecia as a rare but distinct manifestation of pemphigus vulgaris
Hair loss is a rare but recognized symptom of pemphigus vulgaris, with patients usually regrowing hair after treatment.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Hair Growth–Promoting Effects of Adiponectin In Vitro
Adiponectin may stimulate hair growth and could be a potential treatment for promoting hair growth.
research Laser hair removal
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
research Hair Loss and Hirsutism in the Elderly
Many elderly women experience unwanted facial hair and various hair loss conditions, with treatments available for each condition.
research Hair growth-modulation by adrenergic drugs
Certain drugs can cause early hair growth in mice by affecting the nerves.
research Androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss from genetics and hormones can be treated with drugs or surgery.
research Mechanisms of repigmentation induced by photobiomodulation therapy in vitiligo
Light therapy using helium-neon lasers can help restore skin color in vitiligo by promoting skin cell growth and movement.
research Induction of Skin-Derived Precursor Cells from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists made skin stem cells from other human cells with over 97% efficiency, which could help treat skin conditions.
research Contraceptive use in acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
Mice with the naked gene have missing or abnormal hair cells.
research Assessment of vitamin D receptors in alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia
Low vitamin D receptor levels found in hair loss patients; topical vitamin D treatment suggested.
research Human placental extract exerts hair growth-promoting effects through the GSK-3β signaling pathway in human dermal papilla cells
Human placental extract may help hair growth by affecting certain cell signals and could be more effective with minoxidil.
research Normal and Aging Hair Biology and Structure ‘Aging and Hair'
Hair gets thinner, grayer, and changes texture with age due to genetics, environment, and cellular changes, affecting the growth cycle.
