research Hair Counts from Normal Scalp Biopsy in Taiwan
The conclusion is that normal scalp hair counts for Taiwanese people were established, showing age-related differences but not sex or scalp location differences.
research Intermediate Hair Follicles from Patients with Female Pattern Hair Loss Are Associated with Nutrient Insufficiency and a Quiescent Metabolic Phenotype
Nutritional supplements may help improve hair growth in female pattern hair loss.
research Possible mechanisms of miniaturization during androgenetic alopecia or pattern hair loss
Hair loss occurs due to fewer papillary cells, smaller follicles, and shorter growth phases.
research Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in various compartments of the human hair follicle
Dermal papilla cells mainly drive blood vessel growth in hair follicles.
research A randomized double-blind placebo-controlled pilot study to assess the efficacy of a 24-week topical treatment by latanoprost 0.1% on hair growth and pigmentation in healthy volunteers with androgenetic alopecia
Latanoprost 0.1% may effectively treat hair loss.
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 Telogen Effluvium
Telogen effluvium is a hair loss condition with acute cases resolving quickly and chronic cases potentially lasting longer, sometimes requiring treatment.
research Monitoring chemotherapy‐induced alopecia with trichoscopy
Chemotherapy caused hair loss with specific patterns, but most patients had hair regrowth after treatment, while some had lasting hair loss.
research The effect of topical minoxidil treatment on hair follicular growth of neonatal hairless descendants of Mexican hairless dogs
Minoxidil treatment can stimulate hair growth in hairless puppies if applied early.
research The role of the SWI/SNF ATP dependent chromatin remodelling complex in the regulation of the human hair follicle cell proliferation and control of the human cutaneous wound healing
SWI/SNF complexes are crucial for wound healing but not for hair growth.
research The eyelash comes to the fore
Eyelashes are important for looks and eye protection, and more people are treating sparse eyelashes; more research is needed to understand eyelash biology and improve treatments.

The research found specific signs to diagnose alopecia areata incognito and noted patients generally regrow hair after steroid treatment.
research Histologic and Cell Kinetic Studies of Hair Loss and Subsequent Recovery Process of Human Scalp Hair Follicles Grafted onto Severe Combined Immunodeficient Mice
Stem cells are key for hair follicle recovery.
research Pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research RASopathic alopecia: Hair changes associated with vemurafenib therapy
Vemurafenib therapy can cause hair loss, but clobetasol propionate foam can help regrow hair.
research Morphological Approach to Hair Disorders
Accurate clinical, histological, and genetic methods are key for understanding and treating hair disorders.
research Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 and Hair Follicle Regression
ICAM-1 helps regulate hair growth cycles and skin remodeling.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth

Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.
research Androgenic alopecia: A counterproductive outcome of the anabolic effect of androgens
Male pattern baldness is an unintended side effect of the body's use of androgens for muscle growth, especially in those genetically prone to it.
research A comparative in vivo and in vitro evaluation of hair growth potential of extracts and an isolate from petroleum ether extract of Cuscuta reflexa Roxb
