research Exogen, Shedding Phase of the Hair Growth Cycle: Characterization of a Mouse Model
Researchers found that hair shedding happens mostly when new hair is growing and involves a unique process.
research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Growth factors and cytokines in hair follicle development and cycling: recent insights from animal models and the potentials for clinical therapy
Growth factors and cytokines are important for hair growth and could potentially treat hair loss, but more research is needed to overcome challenges before they can be used in treatments.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables

research Building Epithelial Tissues from Skin Stem Cells
Skin stem cells help maintain skin health, grow hair, and heal wounds.
research Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis in the Developing Countries of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East: A Review
Atopic dermatitis is common in developing countries, but many patients receive poor care due to inconsistent guidelines and lack of resources.
research Inductive Properties of Hair Follicle Cells
Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.
research About photo-damage of human hair

Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research What women want - quantifying the perception of hair amount: an analysis of hair diameter and density changes with age in caucasian women
Caucasian women's hair appears thickest in their 20s, with perceived thinning after mid-30s due to both decreasing density and diameter.
research The Ethnic Differences of the Damage of Hair and Integral Hair Lipid after Ultra Violet Radiation
Asian hair is more resistant to UV damage due to higher lipid content.
research The genetics of hair shaft disorders
The article explains the genetic causes and symptoms of various hair disorders and highlights the need for more research to find treatments.
