Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Polyamines and hair: a couple in search of perfection
Polyamines are important for hair growth, but more research is needed to understand their functions and treatment potential.
research Dermoscopy Research—An Update
Dermoscopy has greatly improved the diagnosis of skin lesions and our understanding of their morphology and biology.
research Role of Arachidonic Acid in Promoting Hair Growth
Arachidonic acid helps hair grow by increasing growth factors and improving follicle health.
research A review of monochromatic light devices for the treatment of alopecia areata
Monochromatic light devices, especially the 308-nm excimer laser, are promising for treating alopecia areata but more research is needed.
research Advanced Inhibition of Undesired Human Hair Growth by PPARγ Modulation?
GMG-43AC may help reduce unwanted hair growth and treat certain hair loss conditions.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research L ‐Carnitine–L ‐tartrate promotes human hair growth in vitro
L-Carnitine-L-tartrate may help hair grow and prevent hair loss.
research Cicatricial alopecia
Permanent hair loss from cicatricial alopecia is treated by reducing inflammation and managing symptoms, but regrowth in scarred areas is unlikely.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research Perda pilosa por líquen plano pilar após transplante capilar: relato de dois casos e revisão da literatura
Hair transplants can lead to hair loss from lichen planopilaris, and patients should be tested and wait two years before the procedure.
research Evaluation of hair loss
Detailed patient history and physical exams are crucial for diagnosing hair loss.
research Getting under the skin of hair aging: the impact of the hair follicle environment
Aging scalp skin contributes to hair aging and loss, and more research is needed to develop better hair loss treatments.
research Male pattern baldness and risk of incident skin cancer in a cohort of men
Men with male pattern baldness have a higher risk of certain skin cancers, especially on the scalp.
research Review paper The use of reflectance confocal microscopy in selected inflammatory skin diseases
Reflectance confocal microscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing some skin diseases, with potential for future improvements.
research Spatial Distribution and Functional Impact of Human Scalp Hair Follicle Microbiota
Scalp hair follicle microbes affect hair health and could be used for treatments.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research An Investigation of Apoptosis in Androgenetic Alopecia
Apoptosis contributes to hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research The histopathology of alopecia areata in vertical and horizontal sections
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections are better for diagnosing alopecia areata, showing fewer hair follicles and more miniaturized hairs.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research Effect of Ficus carica leaf extract on the gene expression of selected factors in HaCaT cells
Ficus carica leaf extract may help treat skin disorders by reducing inflammation and androgen effects in skin cells.
research Pigmented Casts
Pigmented casts are common in several hair loss conditions and can help diagnose specific types of alopecia.
research Efficient In Vitro Transfection of Human Keratinocytes with an Adenovirus-Enhanced Receptor-Mediated System
The AVET system effectively delivers genes to human keratinocytes and may help treat skin diseases.
research Panax ginseng extract antagonizes the effect of DKK-1-induced catagen-ike changes of hair follicles
Panax ginseng extract may help prevent hair loss caused by DKK-1.
