research Differences in Expression of Specific Biomarkers Distinguish Human Beard from Scalp Dermal Papilla Cells
Beard and scalp hair cells have different gene expressions, which may affect beard growth characteristics.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research Hormone replacement therapy and the skin
Estrogen replacement can improve skin health in menopausal women but doesn't reverse sun damage or prevent hair loss.
