research Genome-wide association study in frontal fibrosing alopecia identifies four susceptibility loci including HLA-B*07:02
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to four genetic areas, especially the HLA-B*07:02 allele.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Transfollicular Drug Delivery: Penetration of Drugs Through Human Scalp Skin and Comparison of Penetration Between Scalp and Abdominal Skins In Vitro
Drugs penetrate scalp skin better than abdominal skin, with scalp hair follicles aiding in higher drug delivery.
research Large Scale Gene Expression Profiles of Regenerating Inner Ear Sensory Epithelia
Birds can regenerate inner ear cells using specific gene pathways, unlike mammals.
research Follicular Transplantation
Careful planning and patient counseling can lead to excellent hair transplant results, often in one or two sessions.
research What do we know about phytotherapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia?
Some plant-based treatments can help with benign prostatic hyperplasia symptoms, but more research is needed to confirm their safety and effectiveness.
research Recent advances in microneedle composites for biomedical applications: Advanced drug delivery technologies

New treatments for acne scars are safer and more effective because we understand the causes better.
research Sulphation catalysed by the human cytosolic sulphotransferases - chemical defence or molecular terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.
research Principles and mechanisms of regeneration in the mouse model for wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Alopecia in patients treated with molecularly targeted anticancer therapies
Targeted cancer therapies have a significant but lower risk of causing hair loss compared to chemotherapy.
research Impact of metformin and rosiglitazone treatment on glucose transporter 4 mRNA expression in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
