research 5-Fluorouracil induces hair loss by inhibiting β-catenin signaling and angiogenesis
5-Fluorouracil causes hair loss by blocking signals needed for hair growth.
research The unit area trichogram in the assessment of androgen-dependent alopecia
The unit area trichogram is a reliable method to assess hair loss and treatment response in people with androgenic alopecia by measuring hair density and thickness.
research Transforming growth factor-alpha immunoreactivity during induced hair follicle growth cycles in sheep and ferrets.
TGF-alpha is present in sheep and ferret skin and may affect hair growth without directly stimulating cell proliferation.

research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Hair follicle elongation in organ culture of skin from newborn and adult mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research Beneficial effect of spironolactone on androgenic alopecia
Spironolactone may help reduce hair loss in androgenic alopecia.
