research Guidelines for the management of alopecia areata
The 2003 guidelines suggest that while some treatments can regrow hair in alopecia areata, none alter the disease's progression, and wigs may be the best option for extensive hair loss.
research Epigenetic control of adult stem cell function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Alopecia areata profiling shows TH1, TH2, and IL-23 cytokine activation without parallel TH17/TH22 skewing
Alopecia areata involves immune activation in the scalp, suggesting treatments targeting TH1, TH2, and IL-23 pathways.
research A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology
Capsaicin, found in chili peppers, can slow down hair growth by affecting skin cells and hair follicles.
research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research Hirsutism and acne in polycystic ovary syndrome
Lower doses of treatments for hirsutism and acne in PCOS are effective and cause fewer side effects.
research Endocrinology of Transgender Medicine
Hormone treatments for transgender individuals generally improve mental health and physical transition, with some health risks that require medical supervision.
research Materialism, Transformation Expectations, and Spending: Implications for Credit Use
People who are more materialistic often expect life changes from buying things, leading to more debt and credit misuse.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research DrugNet: Network-based drug–disease prioritization by integrating heterogeneous data
DrugNet effectively identifies new uses for existing drugs and may save resources in drug development.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Androgens and human hair growth
Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.
research Tributyltin (TBT) effects on Ocinebrina aciculata (Gastropoda: Muricidae): imposex development, sterilization, sex change and population decline
Tributyltin exposure causes sex changes, sterilization, and decline in the snail Ocinebrina aciculata, risking its extinction.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research S1 guideline for diagnostic evaluation in androgenetic alopecia in men, women and adolescents
Guidelines for diagnosing common hair loss include detailed history, clinical examination, and various diagnostic techniques.
research Ichthyosis
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of ichthyosis is crucial for treatment and genetic advice, and ongoing research is needed for better therapies.
research Telogen effluvium

research Medical uses of Carthamus tinctorius L. (Safflower): a comprehensive review from Traditional Medicine to Modern Medicine
More research is needed to confirm safflower's traditional medicinal uses.
research ANDROGEN METABOLISM AS IT AFFECTS HAIR GROWTH IN ANDROGENETIC ALOPECIA
Too much androgen can cause hair loss; finasteride may help.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fetal Skin Reveals Key Genes Related to Hair Follicle Morphogenesis in Cashmere Goats
Key genes and pathways crucial for hair follicle development in cashmere goats were identified, aiding fleece production improvement.
research What Surgeons Need to Know About Gender Confirmation Surgery When Providing Care for Transgender Individuals
Surgeons must understand the full care process for gender confirmation surgery to help transgender individuals effectively.
research Isotretinoin treatment of acne and related disorders: An update
Isotretinoin effectively treats severe acne and similar conditions, but has common, mostly reversible side effects, requiring careful patient monitoring.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Alopecia areata: Pathogenesis and treatment
No single treatment is consistently effective for alopecia areata, and more research is needed.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research HAIR REGROWTH
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.
