research PPAR‐γ signalling as a key mediator of human hair follicle physiology and pathology
PPAR-γ is important for healthy hair and its problems, and more research on PPAR-γ treatments is needed.
research Resident T cell activation leads to human hair follicle immune privilege loss ex vivo, which is prevented by the DHODH inhibitor farudodstat: relevance for alopecia areata
Farudodstat may help prevent hair loss in alopecia areata by stopping immune attacks on hair follicles.
research Hair Follicle Dermal Cells Support Expansion of Murine and Human Embryonic and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells and Promote Haematopoiesis in Mouse Cultures
Hair follicle cells help maintain and support stem cells and blood cell formation.
research Telomere Dynamics and Telomerase in the Biology of Hair Follicles and their Stem Cells as a Model for Aging Research
Hair follicle studies suggest that maintaining telomere length could help treat hair loss and graying, but it's uncertain if mouse results apply to humans.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Epidermal expression of the truncated prelamin A causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: effects on keratinocytes, hair and skin
Progerin affects cell shape but not hair or skin in mice.
research Extracellular Caspase-1 induces hair stem cell migration in wounded and inflamed skin conditions
Caspase-1 helps hair stem cells move to heal wounded or inflamed skin.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Malate-based polyester chemically shielded metal-phenolic networks coated artificial hair fibers with long-lasting antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory performance
research Transcriptional regulation of the thymus master regulator Foxn1
Foxn1 gene regulation is crucial for thymus development but not for hair growth.
research Sox21 Regulates Anapc10 Expression and Determines the Fate of Ectodermal Organ
Sox21 is crucial for tooth development and enamel formation by preventing cells from changing into a different type.
research The potential of regulatory T cell-based therapies for alopecia areata
Treg cell-based therapies might help treat hair loss from alopecia areata, but more research is needed to confirm safety and effectiveness.
research Mutations in SREBF1, Encoding Sterol Regulatory Element Binding Transcription Factor 1, Cause Autosomal-Dominant IFAP Syndrome
Changes in the SREBF1 gene cause a rare genetic skin and hair disorder.
research SCD1 Sustains Homeostasis of Bulge Niche via Maintaining Hemidesmosomes in Basal Keratinocytes
SCD1 is important for hair growth by keeping the connection in skin cells where hair stem cells live stable.
research Disturbed Epidermal Structure in Mice with Temporally Controlled Fatp4 Deficiency
Fatp4 is crucial for healthy skin development and function.
research Premature aging and cancer development in transgenic mice lacking functional CYLD
Lack of functional CYLD in mice leads to early aging and cancer.
research A folliculocentric perspective of dandruff pathogenesis: Could a troublesome condition be caused by changes to a natural secretory mechanism?
Dandruff might be caused by changes in how hair follicles naturally release oils and an immune response to this imbalance.
research Expression of fox-related genes in the skin follicles of Inner Mongolia cashmere goat
Fox genes are important for hair growth and development in cashmere goats.
research TRPV3 Ion Channel: From Gene to Pharmacology
The TRPV3 ion channel is important for skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin conditions.
research Taurine, a non-proteinous essential amino acid for human body systems: an overview

research Phospholipase C 1 is required for skin stem cell lineage commitment
Phospholipase Cδ1 is crucial for normal skin and hair development.
research The Important Role of Leptin in Modulating the Risk of Dermatological Diseases
Leptin, a hormone from fat cells, affects immune responses and can influence skin diseases and hair growth.
research Sensory Reinnervation of Human Skin by Human Neural Stem Cell‒Derived Peripheral Neurons Ex Vivo
Human skin can be reconnected to nerves using stem cells, which may help with skin health and healing.
