research Intragenic deletion in the Desmoglein 4 gene underlies the skin phenotype in the Iffa Credo “hairless” rat
A gene deletion causes the "hairless" trait in Iffa Credo rats.
research Urokinase is a Positive Regulator of Epidermal Proliferation In Vivo
Urokinase, a type of protein, helps skin cells multiply faster, especially in newborn mice.
research Reversible decreases of fertility in male Sprague-Dawley rats treated orally with finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor
Finasteride temporarily lowers male rat fertility without affecting libido.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Ancient Genomes Reveal the Evolutionary History and Origin of Cashmere-Producing Goats in China
Ancient Chinese goats evolved cashmere-producing traits due to selective breeding, particularly in genes affecting hair growth.
research Inactivation of autophagy leads to changes in sebaceous gland morphology and function
Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.
research iNKT cells ameliorate human autoimmunity: Lessons from alopecia areata
iNKT cells can help prevent and treat alopecia areata by promoting hair regrowth.
research Inducing hair follicle neogenesis with secreted proteins enriched in embryonic skin
Three specific proteins can turn adult skin cells into hair-growing cells, suggesting a new hair loss treatment.
research Efficacy of topical tofacitinib in promoting hair growth in non-scarring alopecia: possible mechanism via VEGF induction
Topical tofacitinib may grow hair better than minoxidil by increasing VEGF and reducing inflammation.
research Conditional knock out of N-WASP in keratinocytes causes skin barrier defects and atopic dermatitis-like inflammation
N-WASP is essential for healthy skin and preventing inflammation.
research A new hair follicle-derived human epidermal model for the evaluation of sunscreen genoprotection

Researchers created a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome to study glucocorticoid excess and potential treatments.
research Somatostatin Expression in Human Hair Follicles and Its Potential Role in Immune Privilege
Somatostatin may help protect hair follicles from immune attacks.
research Caspase-1 Level Is Higher in the Scalp in Androgenetic Alopecia
Higher caspase-1 levels found in balding scalps; reducing it may help treat hair loss.
research DHT deficiency perturbs the integrity of the rat seminiferous epithelium by disrupting tight and adherens junctions
DHT deficiency can disrupt cell connections in rat testes, possibly affecting fertility.
research Photodynamic Therapy with Methyl 5-Aminolevulinate Acid Might Be Ineffective in Recalcitrant Alopecia Totalis Regardless of Using a Microneedle Roller to Increase Skin Penetration
Photodynamic therapy with methyl 5-aminolevulinic acid is ineffective for treating alopecia totalis.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Practical issues for emollient therapy in dry and itchy skin
Nurses should know about different moisturizers to help patients with dry, itchy skin choose the best one.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research Bulge cells of human hair follicles: segregation, cultivation and properties
Researchers found that bulge cells from human hair can grow quickly in culture and have properties of hair follicle stem cells, which could be useful for skin treatments.
research Expression Profiling and Cellular Localization of Genes Associated with the Hair Cycle Induced by Wax Depilation
Researchers found new genes involved in hair growth, which could help develop new hair treatments.
research Androgenic Alopecia and Stress-Induced Premature Senescence by Cumulative Ultraviolet Light Exposure

research Cardiac morphologic alterations in acute minoxidil cardiotoxicity in miniature swine
research PBX homeobox 1 enhances hair follicle mesenchymal stem cell proliferation and reprogramming through activation of the AKT/glycogen synthase kinase signaling pathway and suppression of apoptosis
PBX1 helps hair stem cells grow and change by turning on certain cell signals and preventing cell death, which may be useful for hair regrowth treatments.
research Microbiome in the hair follicle of androgenetic alopecia patients
Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Skin-permeable liposome improved stability and permeability of bFGF against skin of mice with deep second degree scald to promote hair follicle neogenesis through inhibition of scar formation
