research The Ludwig Pattern of Androgenetic Alopecia Is Due to a Hierarchy of Androgen Sensitivity Within Follicular Units That Leads to Selective Miniaturization and a Reduction in the Number of Terminal Hairs Per Follicular Unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research Styling Without Shedding: Novel Topical Formula Reduces Hair Shedding by Contracting the Arrector Pili Muscle
A new topical solution safely reduces hair shedding by 38% on average by tightening a muscle in the scalp.
research Scalp Neuropathy in Androgenetic Alopecia
Scalp nerve issues are linked to hair loss in men.
research Phenobarbital
A woman experienced unusual hair loss and skin reactions after taking phenobarbital, but her hair grew back after treatment.
research Breakthroughs in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Male and Female Pattern Hair Loss
New methods can diagnose hair loss by examining the scalp and can treat it with a mix of oral and topical medications, along with cosmetic procedures like hair transplants.
research Biology of the Eyelash Hair Follicle: An Enigma in Plain Sight
Scientists don't fully understand eyelash hair follicle biology, including growth and color, and suggest more research is needed.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Plain Language Summaries of Dermatological Studies
Eczema patients have a lower skin lipid to protein ratio, older and longer-staying hospital patients are more likely to get pressure ulcers, hair loss in AGA is linked to muscle degeneration, vitamin D deficiency is common in alopecia areata and linked to its severity, standard liver tests don't effectively detect fibrosis in psoriasis patients on methotrexate, and bullous pemphigoid patients have a higher death risk but combination therapy may reduce it.
research A Histologic Review of 27 Patients with Lichen Planopilaris
The conclusion is that certain scalp tissue changes are characteristic of lichen planopilaris, with mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia being a new feature for diagnosis.
research Responses of Hair Follicle–Associated Structures to Loss of Planar Cell Polarity Signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research A 43-Year-Old Woman with a Solitary, Asymptomatic Nodule on the Scalp
A woman's scalp nodule was a common, harmless pilar cyst, treated by surgical removal.
research Novel Shampoo Reduces Hair Shedding by Contracting the Arrector Pili Muscle via the Trace Amine-Associated Receptor
New shampoo with tyramine hydrochloride reduces hair loss by making a small muscle in the hair follicle contract.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of Fully Functional Hair Follicle Regeneration Through the Rearrangement of Stem Cells and Their Niches
Scientists successfully created fully functional hair follicles using bioengineering methods and stem cells.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle: The Bridge Between the Follicular Stem Cell Niche and the Interfollicular Epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research Matricellular Proteins in the Homeostasis, Regeneration, and Aging of Skin
Special proteins are important for skin balance, healing, and aging, and affect skin stem cells.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Interactions Between the Hair Follicle, the Arrector Pili Muscle, and the Sympathetic Nerve During Development and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Arrector pili muscle regulates hair follicle stem cells, DNA methylation needed for hair cycling, and Wnt/B-catenin signaling starts hair growth.
research Environment of the Anagen Follicle
The document concludes that hair follicles have a complex environment and our understanding of it is growing, but there are limitations when applying animal study findings to humans.
research Miniaturized Hairs Maintain Contact With the Arrector Pili Muscle in Alopecia Areata but Not in Androgenetic Alopecia: A Model for Reversible Miniaturization and Potential for Hair Regrowth
Miniaturized hairs stay connected to muscle in alopecia areata, allowing possible regrowth, but not in androgenetic alopecia.
research The Eyelash Comes to the Fore: Significance in Aesthetics and Eye Protection
Eyelashes are important for looks and eye protection, and more people are treating sparse eyelashes; more research is needed to understand eyelash biology and improve treatments.
research Recent Progress in Understanding the Effect of Sympathetic Nerves on Hair Follicle Growth
Stress can cause hair loss by affecting nerve-related hair growth, and noradrenaline might help prevent this.
research Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Folliculotropic Disease of Innate Immune Barrier Dysfunction?
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.
research Epidermal Cells Expressing Putative Cell Markers in Nonglabrous Skin Near the Distal End of the Arrector Pili Muscle
Certain skin cells near the base of hair muscles may help renew and stabilize skin, possibly affecting skin disorder understanding.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Mechanisms and Progression
Androgenetic alopecia causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to androgens, with the connection between the muscle and hair follicle determining if the loss is reversible.
research Fully Functional Hair Follicle Regeneration Through the Rearrangement of Stem Cells and Their Niches
Regenerated fully functional hair follicles using stem cells, with potential for hair regrowth therapy.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp
Each group of hair follicles on the scalp shares one muscle that helps control hair movement.
research Destruction of the Arrector Pili Muscle and Fat Infiltration in Androgenic Alopecia
Hair loss in male pattern baldness involves muscle degeneration and increased scalp fat.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: New Insights Into the Pathogenesis and Mechanism of Hair Loss
New model shows muscle affects hair loss differently in men and women.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Does the Arrector Pili Muscle Have a Role in Hair Loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
