Minoxidil effectively treats hair loss, especially androgenetic alopecia, but needs more research for better understanding.
research In vitro hair follicle growth model for drug testing
Researchers developed a new method to test hair growth drugs and found that adult cells are best for hair growth, but the method needs improvement as it didn't create mature hair follicles.
research Guava (Psidium guajava L.) Leaf Extract as Bioactive Substances for Anti-Androgen and Antioxidant Activities
Guava leaf extract may help treat hair loss and protect cells by blocking certain genes and fighting damaging molecules.
research Effects of taxifolin from enzymatic hydrolysis of Rhododendron mucrotulatum on hair growth promotion
Taxifolin from Rhododendron mucronulatum may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Effects of Cudrania tricuspidata and Sargassum fusiforme extracts on hair growth in C57BL/6 mice
Cudrania tricuspidata and Sargassum fusiforme extracts improved hair growth in mice by affecting growth-related genes.
research Autophagy: Guardian of Skin Barrier
Autophagy helps keep skin healthy and may improve treatments for skin diseases.
research Blue Laser Irradiation Decreases the ATP Level in Mouse Skin and Increases the Production of Superoxide Anion and Hypochlorous Acid in Mouse Fibroblasts
Blue laser light reduces energy in mouse skin cells and creates harmful oxygen compounds, possibly harming the cells.
research Effects of all-trans retinoic acid on goat dermal papilla cells cultured in vitro
All-trans retinoic acid at high doses harms goat hair growth cells and could be bad for hair growth.
research Stem cells and alopecia: a review of pathogenesis
Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
research Roles of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Epidermal and Hair Follicle Development, Homeostasis, and Cancer
The Hedgehog signaling pathway is important for skin and hair growth and can lead to cancer if it doesn't work right.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research In vitro characterization of human hair follicle dermal sheath mesenchymal stromal cells and their potential in enhancing diabetic wound healing
DS-MSCs from hair follicles may improve diabetic wound healing.
research Keratinocyte-Specific Onset of Serine Protease BSSP Expression in Experimental Carcinogenesis
BSSP may help skin tumors grow and could be a marker or target for skin cancer treatment.
research Cthrc1 deficiency aggravates wound healing and promotes cardiac rupture after myocardial infarction via non-canonical WNT5A signaling pathway
CTHRC1 is essential for healing and preventing heart rupture after a heart attack.
research Nonanal Stimulates Growth Factors via Cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) Signaling in Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells
Nonanal from fruits and vegetables promotes hair growth by increasing growth factors.
research Tissue Engineering and Regeneration of the Human Hair Follicle in Androgenetic Alopecia: Literature Review
