research Electric Hair Follicular Stimulation

January 2021 in “Journal of Allergy and Therapy”

research Estrogen Leads to Reversible Hair Cycle Retardation Through Inducing Premature Catagen and Maintaining Telogen

42 citations , July 2012 in “PLOS ONE”

This study found that estrogen can cause reversible suppression of the hair cycle by inducing premature catagen and maintaining the telogen phase without damaging the hair follicle stem cell niche or the signature gene expressions of dermal papilla cells.

research Natural Scalp Hair Regression in Preclinical Stages of Male Androgenetic Alopecia and Its Reversal by Finasteride

24 citations , January 2006 in “Skin Pharmacology and Physiology”

research Epidermal Growth Factor Induced Apoptosis in the Outer Root Sheath Cells of Anagen Hair and Changed the Hair Cycle to the Catagen Phase

September 2004 in “Kitasato medical journal”

This study found that a high dose of epidermal growth factor induced hair loss in sheep by causing apoptosis in anagen hair and transitioning the hair cycle to catagen.
