Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research Differential proteomics of lesional vs. non-lesional biopsies revealed non-immune mechanisms of alopecia areata
Non-immune factors play a significant role in alopecia areata.
research Effects of dihydrotestosterone on rat dermal papilla cells in vitro
Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) doesn't affect rat skin cell growth, but it does change cell cycle, protein levels, and other cell functions, potentially shortening hair growth cycle.
research TSA restores hair follicle-inductive capacity of skin-derived precursors
Trichostatin A helps restore hair-growing ability in skin cells used for hair regeneration.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Age-Related Changes in Female Scalp Dermal Sheath and Dermal Fibroblasts: How the Hair Follicle Environment Impacts Hair Aging
Aging causes changes in the scalp that can affect hair growth and lead to older-looking hair in women.
research Neural Stem Cells Restore Hair Growth through Activation of the Hair Follicle Niche

research Hair Growth Promoting Effect of 4HGF Encapsulated with PGA Nanoparticles (PGA-4HGF) by β-Catenin Activation and Its Related Cell Cycle Molecules
PGA-4HGF may help treat hair loss by activating hair growth pathways and extending the hair growth phase.
research Benign prostatic hyperplasia, metabolic syndrome and androgenic alopecia: Is there a possible relationship?
People with early hair loss may have a higher chance of enlarged prostate and metabolic syndrome, so they should be checked for urinary and metabolic issues.
research Consumption of fish oil high-fat diet induces murine hair loss via epidermal fatty acid binding protein in skin macrophages
Eating a high-fat fish oil diet caused mice to lose hair due to a specific immune cell activity in the skin linked to a protein called E-FABP.
