research Hair Restoration
The document concludes that there are various causes and treatments for hair loss, with hair transplantation being a notable option.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a non-invasive way to diagnose hair and scalp problems without needing hair samples.
research Determination of finasteride in human plasma by liquid chromatography–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry with flow rate gradient
Researchers developed a quick and sensitive way to measure finasteride in blood using a small sample size.
research Stem Cells and the Niche: A Dynamic Duo
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell behavior and tissue health, and their decline can impact aging and cancer.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: pathogenesis and management
Hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin disease, can be managed with antibiotics, lifestyle changes, and in severe cases, surgery. Early diagnosis and careful planning are key, and laser treatment can be an efficient solution for mild to severe cases.
research Histopathology of alopecia: a clinicopathological approach to diagnosis
The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.
research Telocytes in human skin – are they involved in skin regeneration?
Telocytes might help with skin repair and regeneration.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Probiotic Bacteria Induce a ‘Glow of Health’
Probiotic bacteria improved skin and hair health in aged mice.
research A Murine Model for Inducing and Manipulating Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen): Effects of Dexamethasone and Cyclosporin A
Dexamethasone speeds up hair loss in mice, while cyclosporin A slows it down.
research A review of diagnosis and treatment of acne in adult female patients
Adult female acne treatment should be personalized, considering individual preferences and pregnancy, using various topical and oral medications while managing side effects and resistance.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Tinea Capitis: An Overview with Emphasis on Management
New antifungal treatments for a children's scalp infection are effective and safe, but it's not decided if they will become the preferred option over the old treatment.
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 Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas

research Compartmentalized Epidermal Activation of β-Catenin Differentially Affects Lineage Reprogramming and Underlies Tumor Heterogeneity
Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Selected Disorders of Skin Appendages—Acne, Alopecia, Hyperhidrosis
The conclusion is that acne, alopecia, and hyperhidrosis are common skin issues with various treatments available, and accurate diagnosis is key for effective management.
research EEMCO Guidance for the Assessment of Hair Shedding and Alopecia
The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
