research Noninflammatory, Nonpruritic Alopecia of Horses
Some horses lose hair without inflammation or itching due to various conditions, and while mainly a cosmetic issue, diagnosis requires examination and biopsies, and breeding is not advised if it's hereditary.
research Inhibition of T-cell activity in alopecia areata: recent developments and new directions
New treatments targeting T-cell pathways are needed for better alopecia areata management.
research High-throughput phenotyping methods for quantifying hair fiber morphology
Hair fiber shape and curvature are not significantly linked when ancestry is considered.
research Effects of a complex mixture prepared from agrimonia, houttuynia, licorice, peony, and phellodendron on human skin cells
The plant extract mixture improves skin health by reducing inflammation, boosting collagen, and supporting anti-aging.
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 Establishment of a culture model for the prolonged maintenance of chicken feather follicles structure in vitro
Scientists have developed a method to keep chicken feather follicles alive and structurally intact in a lab for up to a week.
research Hair resistance to mechanical wear
Hair's resistance to wear varies by ethnicity and treatment, with less wear indicating stronger hair.
research Hair in health and disease: an introduction
Hair health depends on various factors and hair loss can significantly affect a person's well-being; understanding hair biology is key for creating effective hair care treatments.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research Perspectives and Challenges of Hair Analysis
Hair is a complex organ, and understanding its detailed structure and growth phases is crucial for analyzing substances within it.
research Morphological characteristics and notes of the skin in preclinical toxicity assessment

research Impaired differentiation potential of CD34-positive cells derived from mouse hair follicles after long-term culture
Mouse hair follicle stem cells lose their ability to change into different cell types after being grown for a long time.
research Characteristic Localization of Neuronatin in Rat Testis, Hair Follicle, Tongue, and Pancreas
Neuronatin is found in specific cells within rat testis, hair follicles, tongue, and pancreas, suggesting it has various roles in tissue development and function.
research Hair Follicle Reconstruction and Stem Cells
Stem cells could improve hair growth and new treatments for baldness are being researched.
research Etiopathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, influenced by genetics, environment, and possibly improved by anti-MIF therapy, with many patients experiencing regrowth within a year.
research Hyperpigmentation Associated with the Use of Topical Cidofovir for Treatment of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa in an Immunosuppressed Adult: Case Report and Review of the Literature
Using cidofovir cream for a rare skin disease can cause skin darkening.
research Congenital Hypotrichosis in Japanese White Strain (JW-NIBS) Rabbits.
A single recessive gene causes sparse hair in certain Japanese White rabbits.
research CD4 expression controls epidermal stem cell balance
CD4 is crucial for maintaining skin stem cell balance and aiding wound healing.
research Hdac1 and Hdac2 regulate the quiescent state and survival of hair-follicle mesenchymal niche
Hdac1 and Hdac2 help maintain and protect the cells that control hair growth.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research Nestin is a marker of unipotent embryonic and adult progenitors differentiating into an epithelial cell lineage of the hair follicles
Nestin identifies specific progenitor cells in hair follicles that can become outer root sheath cells.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Alopecia Areata
