research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Pharmacologic inhibition of JAK-STAT signaling promotes hair growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
research Finasteride increases anagen hair in men with androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride helps increase hair growth in men with hair loss.
research Psychological Effect, Pathophysiology, and Management of Androgenetic Alopecia in Men
Minoxidil and finasteride can slow hair loss and stimulate regrowth, but won't restore all lost hair or reverse complete baldness.
research Histopathologic Evaluation of Alopecias
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.
research Minoxidil activates β-catenin pathway in human dermal papilla cells: A possible explanation for its anagen prolongation effect
Minoxidil helps hair growth by activating the β-catenin pathway.
research Cyclic dynamics of hair follicles and the effect of minoxidil on the bald scalps of stumptailed macaques
Minoxidil helps grow longer, thicker hair in bald scalps of stumptailed macaques, and early treatment is more effective.
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.
research Critical study of hair growth analysis with computer-assisted methods
The Trichoscan system was found to be inaccurate for measuring hair growth, needing better software to be useful.
research Histologic response to topically applied minoxidil in male-pattern alopecia
Minoxidil can help grow hair and make hair follicles bigger, but it can also cause side effects.
research Intermediate hair follicles: a new more clinically relevant model for hair growth investigations
Intermediate hair follicles are a better model for studying hair growth and testing hair loss treatments.
research Immunology of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata, a type of hair loss, is likely an autoimmune disease with a genetic link, but its exact cause is still unknown.
research Female patients complaining about hair loss: documentation of defective scalp hair dynamics with contrast-enhanced phototrichogram
The study concluded that a special imaging technique showed women with hair loss have slower hair growth and a faulty hair replacement cycle.
research Normal and Aging Hair Biology and Structure ‘Aging and Hair'
Hair gets thinner, grayer, and changes texture with age due to genetics, environment, and cellular changes, affecting the growth cycle.
research Activation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling is involved in hair growth-promoting effect of 655-nm red light and LED in in vitro culture model
Red light and LED treatments help hair grow by activating a specific cell signaling pathway.
research Effect ofCitrullus colocynthis. on Hair Growth in Albino Rats
Citrullus colocynthis extract is effective for hair growth, comparable to minoxidil.
research Reversal of alopecia areata, osteoporosis follow treatment with activation of Tgr5 in mice
Activating Tgr5 may help treat hair loss and bone loss.
research Histologic Features of Alopecias–Part I: Nonscarring Alopecias
The document concludes that recognizing specific histological features of different nonscarring alopecias is crucial for accurate diagnosis and understanding hair loss progression.
research Integral Roles of Specific Proteoglycans in Hair Growth and Hair Loss: Mechanisms behind the Bioactivity of Proteoglycan Replacement Therapy with Nourkrin® with Marilex® in Pattern Hair Loss and Telogen Effluvium
Proteoglycans are important for hair growth, and a specific treatment can help reduce hair loss.
research Simultaneous determination of androgens and prostaglandins in human urine using ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography–tandem mass spectrometry
Researchers developed a reliable way to measure hormones in urine, showing that a baldness treatment doesn't change hormone levels.
research A comprehensive review of biochemical factors in herbs and their constituent compounds in experimental studies on alopecia
Herbs might help with hair loss, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Repigmentation of Gray Hair After Thyroid Hormone Treatment
Gray hair regained color after thyroid hormone treatment.
research Placebo‐controlled dose‐effect studies with topical minoxidil 2% or 5% in male‐patterned hair loss treated with oral finasteride employing an analytical and exhaustive study protocol
Minoxidil 5% works better than 2% for hair growth in male-patterned hair loss.
research Pregnancy and the hair growth cycle: anagen induction against hair growth disruption using Nourkrin® with Marilex®, a proteoglycan replacement therapy
Nourkrin® with Marilex® may increase hair count by 35.7% in postpartum hair loss.
research Androgenetic alopecia. Modelling progression and regrowth
AGA causes hair loss through follicle miniaturization and hair cycle changes; regrowth depends on anagen initiation in kenogen follicles.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Inducible, reversible hair loss in transgenic mice.
Scientists made a mouse that can be made to lose hair and then grow it back.
research Telogen effluvium: a review
