research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Divergent proliferation patterns of distinct human hair follicle epithelial progenitor niches in situ and their differential responsiveness to prostaglandin D2
Different human hair follicle stem cells grow at different rates and respond differently to a baldness-related compound.
research A case of localized follicular hamartoma: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study
The hamartoma is an abnormal hair growth with limited development in the upper hair follicle.
research Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor-γ signalling protects hair follicle stem cells from chemotherapy-induced apoptosis and epithelial–mesenchymal transition
Activating PPAR-γ signalling can protect hair follicle stem cells from damage caused by chemotherapy.
research Hair Casts and Cutaneous Spicules in Multiple Myeloma
Hair casts and cutaneous spicules can be signs of multiple myeloma.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
research A Case of Inflammatory Nonscarring Alopecia Associated With the Tyrosine Kinase Inhibitor Nilotinib
A cancer drug called nilotinib might cause hair loss due to inflammation around hair follicles.
research Diffuse Alopecia With Stem Cell Folliculitis
Lymphocytes may hinder hair stem cells, causing hair loss without scarring.
research The microanatomy of the distal arrector pili: possible role for α1β1 and α5β1 integrins in mediating cell‐cell adhesion and anchorage to the extracellular matrix
The arrector pili muscle attaches to the extracellular matrix using α5β1 integrin and connects muscle cells using α1β1 integrin.
research Eczema-Like Psoriasiform Skin Reaction due to Brazilian Keratin Treatment
Brazilian keratin treatment can cause severe skin reactions.
research Determination of the pH Gradient in Hair Follicles of Human Volunteers Using pH-Sensitive Melamine Formaldehyde-Pyranine Nile Blue Microparticles
Hair follicles have a pH gradient, increasing towards the root.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Distinct Patterns of Hair Graft Survival After Transplantation Into 2 Nonhealing Ulcers: Is Location Everything?
Hair follicle transplants help heal wounds, but scar quality and hair growth vary by location.
research Connexin 26 (GJB2) mutations in keratitis–ichthyosis–deafness syndrome presenting with squamous cell carcinoma
Connexin-26 gene mutations may increase cancer risk in KID syndrome patients.
research Epidermal field carcinogenesis in bald-headed: An attempt at finetuning early non-invasive detection
Bald-headed individuals may need early non-invasive detection for skin changes linked to cancer risk.
research Efficacy of probiotics in hair growth and dandruff control: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Probiotics may help with hair growth and dandruff, but more research is needed.
research The association between rs2476601 polymorphism in PTPN22 gene and risk of alopecia areata
The C-allele and CC-genotype in the PTPN22 gene lower the risk of alopecia areata.
research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research Case Report: Rowell Syndrome–Like Flare of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus Following COVID-19 Infection
COVID-19 may trigger severe skin flare-ups in people with autoimmune conditions like lupus.
research Novel complex of cosmetic ingredients with promising action in preventing hair loss and follicular aging through mechanism involving enrichment of WNT/signaling, mitochondrial activity, and stem cells maintenance
The ingredients may help prevent hair loss and aging by boosting hair growth signals and reducing stress and hormone effects.
research Efficacy and safety of ritlecitinib, an oral JAK3 /TEC family kinase inhibitor, in adolescent and adult patients with alopecia totalis and alopecia universalis
Ritlecitinib helps regrow hair in people with alopecia totalis and universalis and is safe to use.
research An implication for post-transcriptional control: Reciprocal changes of melanocortin receptor type 2 mRNA and protein expression in alopecia areata
Alopecia areata may involve stress-related changes affecting hormone receptors, leading to reduced cortisol production.
research The crosstalk between PTEN ‐induced kinase 1‐mediated mitophagy and the inflammasome in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Targeting mitophagy may help treat alopecia areata by reducing inflammasome activation.
research Dermoscopy and Trichoscopy in Dermatomyositis—A Cross-Sectional Study
Dermoscopy and trichoscopy are useful for diagnosing skin signs in Dermatomyositis.
