research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research EEMCO Guidance for the Assessment of Hair Shedding and Alopecia
The document explains hair growth and shedding, factors affecting it, and methods to evaluate hair loss, emphasizing the importance of skin biopsy for diagnosis.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Responses of hair follicle–associated structures to loss of planar cell polarity signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Ignite Keratin Production in Hair Follicles by Inhibiting the Pentose Phosphate Pathway and Amino Acid Oxidation
Annurca apple extract promotes hair growth by changing hair follicle metabolism to boost keratin production.
research Cicatricial (scarring) alopecia
Different types of scarring alopecia may be stages of one disease, and accurate diagnosis is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Facial preservation following extreme mummification: Shrunken heads
Shrunken heads retain some facial features and hair characteristics, allowing for limited individual identification.
research Progressive expression of PPARGC1α is associated with hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
research Dilation of Multiple Eccrine Ducts as a Highly Specific Marker for Cicatricial Alopecia
Widened sweat ducts are a very specific sign of scarring hair loss.
research Evidence for murine cutaneous immune surveillance localized to hair follicle epithelium
Hair follicles in mice help detect and respond to germs.
research Clinical Findings, Response to Steroid Treatment, and Recurrence Rate in Alopecia Areata Patients with or without a Nonsynonymous Variant of Coiled-Coil Alpha-Helical Rod Protein 1
Patients with a specific genetic variant have more severe alopecia areata and higher recurrence rates.
research An immune regulatory CCT repeat containing oligodeoxynucleotide capable of causing hair loss in male mice
A specific DNA sequence caused hair loss in male mice by activating immune cells and increasing a certain immune signal.
research Reduced cell cohesiveness of outgrowths from eccrine sweat glands delays wound closure in elderly skin
Older people's sweat glands are less effective at helping skin wounds heal due to weaker cell connections.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Histogenesis of keratoacanthoma: histochemical and immunohistochemical study
Keratoacanthoma comes from hair follicle cells.
research Ultrastructural immunolocalization of involucrin in the medulla and inner root sheath of the human hair
Involucrin helps strengthen the inner parts of human hair.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible For Hair Follicle Development In Angora Goats
Seasonal changes affect gene activity linked to hair growth in Angora goats, influencing mohair quality.
research Donor site of follicular unit excision hair transplantation: the relationship between appearance and actual hair density, and hair diameter
Good-looking donor sites for hair transplants usually have higher hair density and thicker hair.
research Histopathological characterization of inflammatory interparietal involvement in frontal fibrosing alopecia
FFA and FAPD might be related or stages of the same disease.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora Goats
Seasonal changes affect gene activity linked to hair growth in Angora goats.
research Seasonal Gene Expression Profile Responsible for Hair Follicle Development in Angora goats
Seasonal changes affect hair growth genes in Angora goats, possibly influencing mohair quality.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research Deciphering the function of canonical Wnt signals in development and disease: conditional loss- and gain-of-function mutations of β-catenin in mice
Wnt signaling is vital for cell growth, development, and cancer research.
research Surface modification and endothelialization of biomaterials as potential scaffolds for vascular tissue engineering applications
Improving artificial vascular grafts requires better materials and surface designs to reduce blood clotting and support blood vessel cell growth.
research Is dehydroepiandrosterone a hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Alopecia areata update
Half of people with Alopecia Areata may see hair regrowth within a year without treatment, but recovery is unpredictable.
research Evidence-Based and Potential Benefits of Metformin in the Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Comprehensive Review
Metformin helps with menstrual cycles and insulin levels in PCOS but is less effective for hair growth, diabetes prevention, and weight loss, and may improve fertility and reduce diabetes risk.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Dermoscopy in General Dermatology: A Practical Overview
Dermoscopy is a useful tool for identifying features of skin conditions, but more research is needed to define its role in dermatology.
