research A Guide to Assessing Damage Response Pathways of the Hair Follicle: Lessons From Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia in Mice
The document concludes that assessing hair follicle damage due to cyclophosphamide in mice involves analyzing structural changes and suggests a scoring system for standardized evaluation.
research Hair Graying Regulators Beyond Hair Follicle
Hair graying is influenced by factors like nerves, fat cells, and immune cells, not just hair follicles.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Neonatal murine skin-derived cells transplanted using a mini-chamber model produce robust and normal hair
Transplanted baby mouse skin cells grew normal hair using a new, efficient method.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.
research Perspectives and Challenges of Hair Analysis
Hair is a complex organ, and understanding its detailed structure and growth phases is crucial for analyzing substances within it.
research Oxidative stress in ageing of hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Aging of hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
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 Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora Goats
Seasonal changes affect gene activity linked to hair growth in Angora goats.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora goats
Seasonal changes affect hair growth genes in Angora goats, possibly influencing mohair quality.
research Identifying novel strategies for treating human hair loss disorders: Cyclosporine A suppresses the Wnt inhibitor, SFRP1, in the dermal papilla of human scalp hair follicles
Cyclosporine A may help treat hair loss by blocking a protein that inhibits hair growth.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss: The Use of Biomarkers for Predicting Alopecic Severity and Treatment Efficacy
Scalp cooling to prevent hair loss from chemotherapy works for some but not all, and studying hair damage markers could improve prevention and treatment.
research Natural products and their derivatives as candidate treatments for hair greying: from drug discovery to molecular mechanisms
Natural products might help treat hair greying.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.
research The nutritional biochemistry of wool and hair follicles
Nutrients like vitamins, copper, zinc, and amino acids are crucial for healthy hair and wool growth.
research Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types
Hair stiffness is higher when it has more para-like cortical cells.
research Selected topics in pediatric hair loss
The document concludes that early diagnosis and treatment are key for pediatric hair loss disorders, and addressing the emotional effects on children is important.
research The aetiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research A Clinical and Biological Guide for Understanding Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia and Its Prevention
Scalp cooling can help prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss with a 50-90% success rate and is safe for patients.
research Immune privilege and alopecia areata
Restoring immune privilege in hair follicles could help treat certain types of hair loss.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research Exclamation marks and other trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy can cause hair changes similar to alopecia areata, which might lead to misdiagnosis.
research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
research Monitoring chemotherapy‐induced alopecia with trichoscopy
Chemotherapy caused hair loss with specific patterns, but most patients had hair regrowth after treatment, while some had lasting hair loss.
research Effect of Ficus carica leaf extract on the gene expression of selected factors in HaCaT cells
Ficus carica leaf extract may help treat skin disorders by reducing inflammation and androgen effects in skin cells.
research Histogenesis of keratoacanthoma: histochemical and immunohistochemical study
Keratoacanthoma comes from hair follicle cells.
