The hair follicle bulge is an important area for adult stem cells involved in hair growth and repair, with potential for medical use needing more research.
research IMMUNOPATHOLOGY OF THE HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLE
The document concludes that immune system abnormalities cause alopecia areata, but the exact process is still not completely understood.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
research The induction by topical minoxidil of increased fenestration in the perifollicular capillary wall
Minoxidil increased small openings in blood vessel walls near growing hair in rats.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research LOOSE ANAGEN SYNDROME AND LOOSE ANAGEN HAIR
Loose Anagen Syndrome causes easy-to-pull, thin hair, mainly in young girls, and improves with age.
research Mutations in Sterol O-Acyltransferase 1 (Soat1) Result in Hair Interior Defects in AKR/J Mice
A mutation in the Soat1 gene causes hair structure defects and other health issues in AKR/J mice.
research A case of patchy alopecia areata sparing lesional greying hairs
Greying hairs may be protected from alopecia areata.
research The metabolism of testosterone by dermal papilla cells cultured from scalp follicles of men with androgenetic alopecia
Testosterone metabolism in balding scalp cells may not be the main cause of hair loss.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research MELATONIN
Melatonin may help with sleep issues, depression, and cancer, but more research is needed.
research Androgens and human hair growth
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research Revisiting dandruff
Dandruff is mainly caused by a scalp reaction to yeast, can worsen hair loss, and antifungal treatments may help.
research 9 Pilosebaceous physiology in relation to hirsutism and acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
research Normal Fur Development and Sebum Production Depends on Fatty Acid 2-Hydroxylase Expression in Sebaceous Glands
FA2H is essential for normal fur and sebum production in mice.
research Comprehensive molecular and cellular studies suggest avian scutate scales are secondarily derived from feathers, and more distant from reptilian scales
Bird scales evolved from feathers, not reptile scales.
research Changes in distribution pattern of CD8 lymphocytes in the scalp in alopecia areata during treatment with diphencyprone
Diphencyprone treatment increases CD8 lymphocytes in the scalp, which is associated with hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients.
research Targeted expression of SV40 T antigen in the hair follicle of transgenic mice produces an aberrant hair phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Efficacy of diphenylcyclopropenone in alopecia areata: a comparison of two treatment regimens
Treating alopecia areata every 3 weeks with diphenylcyclopropenone is more effective than weekly treatments.
research Involucrin, but not filaggrin and Kdap mRNA, expression is downregulated in 3-D cultures of intact rat hair bulbs after calcium stimulation
Calcium reduces involucrin in rat hair bulbs but doesn't affect filaggrin and Kdap.
research Segmental Vitiligo
Segmental Vitiligo is a stable, early-onset form of vitiligo that responds well to early treatment and is ideal for repigmentation studies.
research Laboratory and Experimental Trichology
The document concludes that the trichogram is a useful tool for diagnosing hair loss and suggests semi-organ cultures for practical trichological research.

research Shampoos: Ingredients, efficacy and adverse effects
Shampoos are designed to clean and improve hair and scalp health, with specific ingredients for different hair types and conditions.
research Functional complexity of hair follicle stem cell niche and therapeutic targeting of niche dysfunction for hair regeneration
Understanding how hair follicle stem cells work can help find new ways to prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research The Ethnic Differences of the Damage of Hair and Integral Hair Lipid after Ultra Violet Radiation
Asian hair is more resistant to UV damage due to higher lipid content.
research Pseudopelade of Brocq
