research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 2111In fond memory of Dr Peter Steinert.
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research Induction of transforming growth factor-beta 1 by androgen is mediated by reactive oxygen species in hair follicle dermal papilla cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Inherited ichthyosis: Syndromic forms
Understanding the genetics of rare inherited ichthyosis syndromes is key for better treatments and genetic counseling.
research Types of Hair Loss and Treatment Options, Including the Novel Low-Level Light Therapy and Its Proposed Mechanism
Hair loss treatments include medications and new methods like low-level light therapy, which may work by boosting cell activity and blood flow.
research Clinical dose ranging studies with finasteride, a type 2 5α-reductase inhibitor, in men with male pattern hair loss
Finasteride effectively treats male pattern hair loss with a 1 mg daily dose.
research Application of mesenchymal stem cells derived from bone marrow and umbilical cord in human hair multiplication
Bone marrow and umbilical cord stem cells can help grow new hair.
research A distinct gene close to the hairless locus on chromosome 8p underlies hereditary Marie Unna type hypotrichosis in a German family
A different gene near the hairless gene on chromosome 8p21 causes a rare hair loss condition in a German family.
research Hair Restoration Surgery: The State of the Art
Hair restoration surgery has advanced, focusing on natural results and may improve further with new techniques and therapies.
research Hair physiology and its disorders
Different hair growth problems are caused by genetic issues or changes in hair growth cycles, and new treatments are being developed.
research ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective FDA-approved treatments for androgenetic alopecia.
research Safety concerns when using novel medications to treat alopecia
Consider benefits and risks of new alopecia treatments for safety.
research Alopecia: unapproved treatments or indications
Many treatments for hair loss lack proper testing and FDA approval, so their effectiveness is uncertain.
research Hair and Nail Relationship
Hair and nails are similar keratin structures with different shapes and growth, affected by the same diseases and environmental factors.
research An epidemiological study of androgenic alopecia in 3114 Korean patients
Smoking and drinking worsened hair loss in men with genetic hair loss, while eating and sleeping habits didn't; genetics played a bigger role than environment in hair loss.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from a novel insertion mutation in the human hairless gene
Researchers found a new mutation causing total hair loss from birth.
research CLINICAL UPDATES IN HAIR
Most treatments for hair loss in 1997 were not effective for most people, and maintaining hair growth was difficult.
research Systematic review of the therapeutic roles of adipose tissue in dermatology
Fat tissue treatments may help with wound healing and hair growth, but more research with larger groups is needed to be sure.
research The genetics of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata has a complex genetic basis that was not fully understood as of 2001.
research Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis: Identification of a U2HR mutation in the family from the original 1925 report
Researchers found a gene mutation responsible for a rare hair loss condition.
research A Japanese case of ichthyosis follicularis with atrichia and photophobia syndrome with an MBTPS2 mutation
A Japanese patient with IFAP syndrome had a severe MBTPS2 gene mutation but showed milder symptoms than previously observed cases.
research Identification of androgen-regulated genes in SV40-transformed human hair dermal papilla cells
Hsc70 protein may influence hair growth by responding to androgens.
research Platelet-rich Plasma and Cell Therapy
PRP and cell therapies may help with hair loss, but more research is needed.
research GMP-Compliant Culture of Human Hair Follicle Cells for Encapsulation and Transplantation
Researchers successfully grew human hair follicle cells that could potentially lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Characterization of Prostaglandin F2α Receptors in Human Eyelids
PGF2α receptors in human eyelids are found in specific parts of hair follicles, explaining eyelash changes with glaucoma treatment.
research Ageing and colony-forming efficiency of human hair follicle keratinocytes
Aging reduces the ability of human hair follicle cells to form new cell colonies.
research Androgenetic alopecia in heterozygous carriers of a mutation in the human hairless gene
Mutation in hairless gene may increase hair loss risk.
research Cell Enriched Autologous Fat Grafts to Follicular Niche Improves Hair Regrowth in Early Androgenetic Alopecia
Adding cells to fat grafts improves hair regrowth in early baldness, but effects lessen over time.
