research Fortnightly review: Male pattern androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men is common, treatable, but not curable.
research Alopecia areata profiling shows TH1, TH2, and IL-23 cytokine activation without parallel TH17/TH22 skewing
Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia versus lichen planopilaris: a clinicopathological study
The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.
research HAIR REGROWTH
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.
research Hair Growth Cycle Affects Hair Follicle Destruction by Ruby Laser Pulses
Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.
research The histopathologic spectrum of psoriasis
Psoriasis skin changes are complex and might need several biopsies for a clear diagnosis.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: a retrospective clinical review of 62 patients with treatment outcome and long-term follow-up
The treatment helped reduce symptoms and stabilize the hairline in most patients with Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, but hair regrowth was limited.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia
Treatments for permanent hair loss from scarring aim to stop further loss, not regrow hair, and vary by condition, with partial success common.
research Human αβ and γδ T Cells in Skin Immunity and Disease
Certain types of T cells are essential for healthy skin and play a role in skin diseases, but more research is needed to improve treatments.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia: Past, present, and future
CCCA is a hair loss type affecting African women, possibly caused by grooming and chemicals, with various treatments and needing more research.
research A clinical overview of hair removal using lasers and light sources
Lasers and light sources can effectively remove hair, work best on fair skin with dark hair, and usually need multiple treatments.
research Vertical and transverse sections of alopecia biopsy specimens: Combining the two to maximize diagnostic yield
Using both vertical and transverse sections for alopecia biopsies improves diagnosis without extra cost.
research The Effect of Plasma Rich in Growth Factors on Pattern Hair Loss: A Pilot Study
Treatment with plasma rich in growth factors improved hair density and thickness for hair loss patients.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: reflections and hypotheses on aetiology and pathogenesis
FFA's causes may include environmental triggers and genetic factors.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research T helper 17 cell/regulatory T-cell imbalance in hidradenitis suppurativa/acne inversa: the link to hair follicle dissection, obesity, smoking and autoimmune comorbidities
An imbalance between certain immune cells is linked to a chronic skin condition and may be influenced by obesity, smoking, and autoimmune issues.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research The role of macrophages in skin homeostasis
Macrophages are vital for skin healing, hair growth, salt balance, and cancer defense.
research Is Androgenetic Alopecia a Photoaggravated Dermatosis?
Sunlight worsens hair loss; protect scalp.
research Early Diagnosis and Treatment of Discoid Lupus Erythematosus
Early diagnosis and treatment of discoid lupus erythematosus improve outcomes.
research The role of lymphocytes in the development and treatment of alopecia areata
Lymphocytes, especially CD8+ T cells, play a key role in causing alopecia areata, and targeting them may lead to new treatments.
research Male pattern hair loss: current understanding
Genetics and hormones cause hair loss; finasteride treats it safely.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Reorganization of hair follicles in human skin organ culture induced by cultured human follicle-derived cells
Injected human hair follicle cells can create new, small hair follicles in skin cultures.
