870-900 / 1000+ resultsresearch Structure of the sinus hair follicle in the big‐clawed shrew, Sorex unguiculatus
The big-clawed shrew's sinus hair follicles are highly specialized for sensing vibrations.
research Synthesis and biological evaluation of amino-pyridines as androgen receptor antagonists for stimulating hair growth and reducing sebum production
A compound made by Pfizer can potentially stimulate hair growth and reduce oil production, making it a good candidate for topical use.
research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research Mice lacking desmocollin 1 show epidermal fragility accompanied by barrier defects and abnormal differentiation
Desmocollin 1 is essential for strong skin and proper skin function.
research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research Sequence and Expression of Murine Type I Hair Keratins mHa2 and mHa3
mHa2 and mHa3 keratins have different structures and roles in mouse hair and tongue tissues.
research Interactions of the Vitamin D Receptor with the Corepressor Hairless
Most Hairless gene mutations reduce its ability to work with the Vitamin D Receptor, which might explain a certain type of hair loss.
research The disruption of Sox21-mediated hair shaft cuticle differentiation causes cyclic alopecia in mice
Disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice causes hair loss and regrowth cycles.
research LY191704: a selective, nonsteroidal inhibitor of human steroid 5 alpha-reductase type 1.
LY191704 is a compound that effectively blocks a specific enzyme involved in hormone conversion and could help treat enlarged prostate and hair loss.
research Structural Transition of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments During Development in the Hair Follicle

Shikimic acid promotes hair growth.
research 919 Overexpression of cyclooxygenase-2 in the skin of adult transgenic mice leads to sebaceous gland hyperplasia and thinning of hair shafts
Increasing COX-2 in mouse skin causes bigger sebaceous glands and thinner hair, but stopping COX-2 can reverse hair thinning.
research Analysis of the Long Non-Coding and Messenger RNA Expression Profiles in the Skin Tissue of Super Merino and Small-Tailed Han Sheep
Key genes and RNAs related to hair growth in sheep were identified, aiding future breeding improvements.
research URB expression in human dermal papilla cells
The gene URB is more active in human hair growth cells and responds to a hair-related hormone.
