research Incorporation of Isotopically Labeled Cocaine and Metabolites into Human Hair: 1. Dose-Response Relationships
Hair analysis can detect cocaine use but doesn't accurately show the amount or timing of use.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Drug-Induced Skin, Nail and Hair Disorders
Some drugs can cause skin, nail, and hair problems, which are important for healthcare professionals to recognize and report.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges

research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research Towards Dissecting the Pathogenesis of Retinoid-Induced Hair Loss: All-Trans Retinoic Acid Induces Premature Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen) by Upregulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β2 in the Dermal Papilla
All-trans retinoic acid causes hair loss by increasing TGF-β2 in hair follicle cells.
research Topical application of Polygonum multiflorum extract induces hair growth of resting hair follicles through upregulating Shh and β-catenin expression in C57BL/6 mice
Polygonum multiflorum extract helps grow hair by activating certain hair growth signals in mice.
research Biology and Genetics of Hair
The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.
research Hair analysis in health assessment
Hair mineral analysis might help diagnose diseases early, but standard methods are needed.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research Female pattern hair loss: a pilot study investigating combination therapy with low-dose oral minoxidil and spironolactone
Low-dose oral minoxidil and spironolactone combo effectively reduces hair loss and improves hair density in women.
research Simple and rapid method to isolate and culture follicular papillae from human scalp hair follicles
Researchers developed a quick and easy way to get and grow cells from the base of human hair follicles.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice*
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Expression of Calcium-Binding S100 Proteins A4 and A6 in Regions of the Epithelial Sac Associated with the Onset of Hair Follicle Regeneration
S100A4 and S100A6 proteins may activate stem cells for hair follicle regeneration and could be potential targets for hair loss treatments.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research The human type I keratin gene family: Characterization of new hair follicle specific members and evaluation of the chromosome 17q21.2 gene domain
The study identified and characterized new keratin genes linked to hair follicles and epithelial tissues.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Fibroblast Growth Factors Stimulate Hair Growth throughβ-Catenin and Shh Expression in C57BL/6 Mice
Certain growth factors can promote hair growth in mice by activating hair growth-related proteins.
research Electrolysis and thermolysis for permanent hair removal
The document concludes that electrolysis and thermolysis can permanently remove hair but calls for better regulation to ensure safety, and notes a possibility of hair regrowth and rare complications.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
