Hormones like testosterone and estrogen significantly affect hair growth and structure.
research Do we need hair follicle stem cells and hair follicle neogenesis to cure common hair loss disorders?
Common hair loss disorders may not need stem cell therapy, but could benefit from other treatments like hair cycle control and immune restoration therapy.

research Permanent alopecia in patients with breast cancer after taxane chemotherapy and adjuvant hormonal therapy: Clinicopathologic findings in a cohort of 10 patients
Some breast cancer patients developed permanent hair loss after chemotherapy and hormonal therapy, showing patterns similar to common baldness and alopecia areata.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: How It Happens
Androgenetic alopecia causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to androgens, with the connection between the muscle and hair follicle determining if the loss is reversible.
research Sex differences in clinical trials of ALRV5XR treatment of androgenetic alopecia and telogen effluvium
ALRV5XR effectively promotes hair regrowth in both men and women through different mechanisms.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia in postmenopausal women
Some postmenopausal women with frontal fibrosing alopecia stopped losing hair with finasteride treatment, hinting at a possible hormonal cause.
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 Spatiotemporal secondary hair follicle development in the Lanyu pig (Sus scrofa taivanus): a novel pelage hair follicle model
The study characterizes the secondary hair follicle development in the Lanyu pig, an indigenous breed that retains vellus-like hair follicles, making it a promising model for studying skin regeneration. Unlike commonly used animal models, the Lanyu pig's skin closely resembles human skin, with both primary and secondary hair follicles. The research identified distinct stages of secondary follicle morphogenesis and demonstrated similarities in keratin expression and follicular architecture to human vellus hair follicles. The retention of secondary follicles into adulthood and their autosomal dominant inheritance pattern further support the Lanyu pig's relevance for translational research in human wound healing.
research Human hair follicle: reservoir function and selective targeting
The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes

research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth in Vivoa
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Eruptive Vellus Hair Cyst
