180-210 / 1000+ resultsresearch Comparative Study of Some Potential Paracrine Factors Produced by Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
Balding hair follicles have less growth-promoting factors and more inhibitory factors, leading to hair loss.
research Role of Androgen in Mesenchymal Epithelial Interactions in Human Hair Follicle
Androgens promote beard growth but cause hair loss in androgenetic alopecia, with TGF-β1 as a potential treatment target.
research Trichohyalin is a Potential Major Autoantigen in Human Alopecia Areata
Trichohyalin may trigger the immune response causing alopecia areata.
research Skin-specific expression of a truncated E1a oncoprotein binding to p105-Rb leads to abnormal hair follicle maturation without increased epidermal proliferation.
The oncoprotein causes abnormal hair growth without increasing skin cancer risk.
research Histogenesis of keratoacanthoma: histochemical and immunohistochemical study
Keratoacanthoma comes from hair follicle cells.

research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Porosity at Different Structural Levels in Human and Yak Belly Hair and Its Effect on Hair Dyeing
Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
