Understanding normal hair growth and loss in children is key to diagnosing and treating hair disorders.

Different hair disorders have specific treatments and outcomes, with some resolving on their own and others requiring medication or emotional support.

The most common cause of hair loss in children is tinea capitis, followed by alopecia areata and telogen effluvium.

Genetic defects and UV radiation cause skin damage and aging.

Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.

People with acne have more CD4+ immune cells in their skin than healthy people.

Nanog gene boosts stem cells, helps hair growth, and may treat hair loss.

Imiquimod cream can rarely cause temporary hair loss.

A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.

lncRNA XLOC_008679 and gene KRT35 affect cashmere fineness in goats.

Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair growth and maintaining hair follicle identity.

The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.

Skin fat plays a key role in immune defense and healing beyond just storing energy.

Activating Notch in adult skin causes T cells and neural crest cells to gather, leading to skin issues.

Prominin-1 expressing cells in the dermal papilla help regulate hair follicle size and communication but don't aid in skin repair.

Scalp biopsies from dermatomyositis patients show chronic hair loss without scarring, with mucin and blood vessel changes being very common.

Skin stem cells can help improve skin repair and regeneration.

Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.

Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).

Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.

Sox2-positive dermal papilla cells have unique characteristics and contribute more to skin and hair follicle formation than Sox2-negative cells.

Scientists made skin stem cells from other human cells with over 97% efficiency, which could help treat skin conditions.

Miliacin with polar lipids helps hair growth and improves hair loss in women.

AIDS may cause changes in the scalp that increase infection risk and hair loss.

The skin's dermal layer contains true stem cells with diverse functions and interactions that need more research to fully understand.

Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.

Special and immunohistochemical stains are not routinely needed for diagnosing hair disorders.

Wnt ligands, produced by dermal papilla cells, are essential for adult hair growth and regeneration.

The dermal papilla interacts with the epidermis to control hair growth and development.
