research Sex Hormones and Antiandrogens Influence In Vitro Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells and Outer Root Sheath Keratinocytes of Human Hair Follicles.
Certain sex hormones and antiandrogens can either slow down or speed up the growth of human hair follicle cells depending on their concentration.
research DNA determination of human hair bulbs in normal and androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss happens due to faster cell growth and fewer cells in affected follicles.
research A simple method using ex vivo culture of hair follicle tissue to investigate intrinsic circadian characteristics in humans
Researchers developed a way to study human body clocks using hair tissue, which works similarly in both healthy and dementia patients.
research Age, Health and Attractiveness Perception of Virtual (Rendered) Human Hair
Hair style affects perceptions of age, health, and attractiveness more than hair color does.
research Protease activity, localization and inhibition in the human hair follicle
The study suggests that a new protease inhibitor can make hair harder to pull out, potentially reducing hair loss.

A spermidine-based supplement may help hair grow longer by keeping it in the growth phase.
research Novel ALK5 inhibitor TP0427736 reduces TGF-β induced growth inhibition in human outer root sheath cells and elongates anagen phase in mouse hair follicles
TP0427736 may help treat hair loss by blocking a specific protein and promoting hair growth.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
research Insights into Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Differential Gene Expression Profiling of Plucked Hair Follicles and Integration with Genetic Data

A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research The 5alpha-reductase type 1, but not type 2, gene is expressed in anagen hairs plucked from the vertex area of the scalp of hirsute women and normal individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research The Phytocannabinoid (–)-Cannabidiol Operates as a Complex, Differential Modulator of Human Hair Growth: Anti-Inflammatory Submicromolar versus Hair Growth Inhibitory Micromolar Effects
CBD can either reduce inflammation and not affect hair growth at low levels or inhibit hair growth at high levels.
research Hair Depigmentation Is a Biological Readout for Pharmacological Inhibition of KIT in Mice and Humans
Hair color loss can indicate the effectiveness of a drug targeting the KIT protein in mice and humans.
research Context-dependent effect of sPLA2-IIA induced proliferation on murine hair follicle stem cells and human epithelial cancer
sPLA2-IIA increases growth in hair follicle stem cells and cancer cells, suggesting it could be targeted for hair growth and cancer treatment.
research Growth of human hair follicle keratinocytes in vitro
The model successfully grew and differentiated hair follicle cells in the lab.
research Phenotypic modulation of human hair matrix cells (trichocytes) by environmental influence in vitro and in vivo.
Human hair cells can change based on their environment, especially interactions with certain skin cells.
research Generating iPSCs with a High-Efficient, Non-Invasive Method—An Improved Way to Cultivate Keratinocytes from Plucked Hair for Reprogramming
The conclusion is that the new method makes collecting cells from plucked hair to create stem cells more efficient and less invasive.
research Organotypic culture of outer root sheath cells from human hair follicles using a new culture device
The new device improves human hair follicle cell growth and differentiation.
research Introducing Antioxidants As Essential For The Maintenance Of Tissue Life As Demonstrated In Human Hair Follicles

research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins were cataloged, showing their roles in hair differentiation stages.
research The Catalog of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair is made up of different keratins, some strong and some weak, with specific types appearing at various stages of hair growth.
research Plucked hair follicles from patients with chronic discoid lupus erythematosus show a disease-specific molecular signature
Plucked hair follicles can help diagnose scalp lupus.
