The document suggests that the traditional understanding of hair growth cycles and alopecia may be inaccurate and that blood supply plays a significant role in hair growth and loss.
research Clinical Case Notes. Optical coherence tomography of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy
Multiple eye conditions were studied, highlighting the importance of various imaging methods for diagnosis, the vision side effects of drugs tamoxifen and Propecia, and the usefulness of optical coherence tomography for diagnosing and monitoring macular and retinal diseases.
research Crosstalk between endothelial cells and dermal papilla entails hair regeneration and angiogenesis during aging
Communication between blood vessel and hair follicle cells decreases with age, affecting hair growth and blood vessel formation.
research Finasteride-associated central retinal vein occlusion
research Miniaturization of sebaceous glands: A novel histopathological finding in pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus of the scalp
People with pemphigus vulgaris and pemphigus foliaceus often have smaller sebaceous glands on their scalp.
research Differential diagnoses of pseudolymphomatous folliculitis: considerations as regards one case
Accurate diagnosis of pseudolymphomatous folliculitis is crucial to avoid mistaking it for more serious conditions.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
research Variations of Hair Follicle Size and Distribution in Different Body Sites
Hair follicle size and distribution vary significantly across different body sites.
research Rare presentation of disseminated follicular lymphoma as an ill-defined reticular patch over the scalp and forehead
A woman with lymphoma had a rare skin rash on her scalp and forehead, which was hard to diagnose but responded well to treatment.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp: A Microscopic Anatomy Study
The study found that hair follicles are above muscle connections in the scalp, which may help protect stem cell areas.
research Involvement of Weibel-Palade bodies in Kaposiform haemangioendothelioma
Combining hair transplantation with PRP is more effective for treating hair loss than hair transplantation alone.

Perforating folliculitis is a skin condition with small bumps that may be linked to other diseases and is hard to treat.
research Dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles secrete factors (e.g. VEGF) mitogenic for endothelial cells.
Dermal papilla cells help hair growth by releasing growth-promoting factors.
research Mechanisms of vascular maturation and maintenance captured by longitudinal imaging of live mouse skin
Neonatal blood vessels rearrange and stabilize as adults, with adult vessels better at self-repair after injury.
research Study on VEGF in the Expression of Skin Hair Follicle and the Relationship with Microvessel Density by Liaoning Cashmere Goat in Fetal Period
VEGF increases in goat hair follicles during fetal development, boosting skin blood vessel density.
