Combining platelet-rich plasma with 5% minoxidil solution improves hair regrowth in androgenetic alopecia patients.
research The use of polyethylenimine–DNA to topically deliver hTERT to promote hair growth
Using polyethylenimine-DNA to deliver the hTERT gene can stimulate hair growth and may be useful in treating hair loss, but there could be potential cancer risks.
research Common Baldness in Women
The document concludes that early diagnosis is key for treating common baldness in women, but reassurance is often the best approach as hair thinning can be a normal part of aging.
research Pohl-Pinkus constrictions of hair following chemotherapy for Hodgkin's disease
Chemotherapy caused the patient's hair to have alternating thick and thin segments.
research What’s New in the Histologic Evaluation of Alopecia and Hair-Related Disorders?
New biopsy techniques and tools improve alopecia diagnosis, and both too much and too little selenium can cause hair loss.
research Diseases of the Hair and Nails
Stress, nutritional issues, and chronic diseases can cause hair loss, and nail changes may signal internal diseases; treatment focuses on the underlying cause.
research Comparative Study Between 2% Minoxidil Topical Spray vs. Intradermal Injection (Mesotherapy) for Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Female Patients: A Controlled, 4-month Randomized Trial
Mesotherapy is more effective than topical spray for female hair loss treatment.
research ACUTE TELOGEN EFFLUVIUM FOLLOWING SARS-COV-2 INFECTION: A RARE PEDIATRIC CASE
A 6-year-old girl experienced temporary hair loss after mild COVID-19, which improved naturally in 8 months.
research COVID-19-associated Telogen Effluvium After Hospital Discharge: A Prospective Cohort Study.
Many severe COVID-19 patients experienced temporary hair loss, but most regrew hair within six months.
research 13. Wound Healing & Hair
Some treatments work better for different types of hair loss, and nutrients like iron and L-lysine are important for preventing hair loss.
research Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a condition that causes temporary hair loss due to stress or shock to the body.
research Drug-induced changes in hair growth
Some drugs can cause hair loss or growth, but hair usually returns to normal after stopping the drug.
research Telogen Effluvium Following the Treatment of Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis in a Patient With Heavy Soft Drink Intake: A Case Report
Hair loss can occur after treating diabetic ketoacidosis, especially with rapid weight loss and high soft drink intake.
research Platelet-rich Plasma’s Effects in Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia: A Scoping Review
Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) may increase hair density and thickness in Androgenetic Alopecia, but it's not significantly better than a placebo.
research Exogenous IGF-1 promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and down regulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 mice in vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research Control of hair growth and follicle size by VEGF-mediated angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research β-catenin Activity in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Morphogenesis and Regeneration of Hair
β-catenin in the dermal papilla is crucial for normal hair growth and repair.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Induction of the hair growth phase in postnatal mice by localized transient expression of Sonic hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.

Hibiscus rosa-sinensis leaf extract helps hair grow longer and faster.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Topical application of Polygonum multiflorum extract induces hair growth of resting hair follicles through upregulating Shh and β-catenin expression in C57BL/6 mice
Polygonum multiflorum extract helps grow hair by activating certain hair growth signals in mice.
research Hair cycle-specific expression of versican in human hair follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research Drug Reactions Affecting Hair: Diagnosis
Some drugs can cause hair loss, change hair color and shape, or increase hair growth, and treatment may involve stopping the drug or using specific hair growth treatments.
