research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research Targeted Expression of Human Vitamin D Receptor in the Skin Promotes the Initiation of the Postnatal Hair Follicle Cycle and Rescues the Alopecia in Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for starting hair growth after birth.
research Phenotypic Diversity and Mutation Spectrum in Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
Different harmful mutations in the CDH3 gene cause HJMD, but symptoms vary among individuals.
research Finasteride for female androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride increases hair density in female androgenetic alopecia, but individual results may vary.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Morphological Approach to Hair Disorders
Accurate clinical, histological, and genetic methods are key for understanding and treating hair disorders.
research Macrophage-Stimulating Protein Promotes Hair Growth Ex Vivo and Induces Anagen from Telogen Stage Hair Follicles In Vivo
Macrophage-stimulating protein helps hair grow and can start hair growth phase in mice and human hair samples.
research Hair Pigmentation: A Research Update
Hair color is determined by different melanins and changes with age.
research Late presentation of myotonic dystrophy
Myotonic dystrophy should be considered in patients with hair thinning, and genetic counseling is important.
research Hair and Scalp Dermatoscopy (Trichoscopy)
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing and managing hair and scalp conditions, often better than traditional methods.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Hair density, hair diameter and the prevalence of female pattern hair loss
Hair loss caused by longer latent hair cycle and sudden miniaturization, not gradual follicle size reduction.
research Obstetric and Gynecologic Dermatology
A pregnant woman's skin condition improved after giving birth, possibly due to high estrogen levels during pregnancy.

Ketogenic diet, neurosteroids, and HMGB1-TLR4 signaling pathway are potential targets for new epilepsy treatments.
research Hair density, hair diameter and the prevalence of female pattern hair loss: reply from authors
Hair loss caused by longer latent hair cycle and sudden miniaturization, not gradual follicle size reduction.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research and Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research British Society for Dermatopathology: Summaries of Papers
Some skin conditions are associated with other serious diseases, and office microscopy may miss many fungal infections.
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 Two Different Mutations in the Same Codon of a Type II Hair Keratin (hHb6) in Patients with Monilethrix
Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.
