research VEGF Upregulates VEGF Receptor-2 on Human Outer Root Sheath Cells and Stimulates Proliferation Through ERK Pathway
VEGF stimulates hair cell growth and increases growth receptor levels through a specific signaling pathway.
research Mutations in Sterol O-Acyltransferase 1 (SOAT1) Result in Hair Interior Defects in AKR/J Mice
A mutation in the Soat1 gene causes hair structure defects and other health issues in AKR/J mice.
research Multifunctional Merkel Cells: Their Roles in Electromagnetic Reception, Fingerprint Formation, Reiki, Epigenetic Inheritance, and Hair Form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Evaluation of Androgen Receptor Gene as a Candidate Gene in Female Androgenetic Alopecia
AR gene not major factor in female hair loss; different from male hair loss.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge Do Not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration After Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Hair Follicle Elongation in Organ Culture of Skin from Newborn and Adult Mice
Insulin or IGF-I is needed for hair growth in newborn mice, while minoxidil helps adult mouse hair grow, suggesting a way to study human hair loss.
research Inhibitory Effects of bFGF, VEGF, and Minoxidil on Collagen Synthesis by Cultured Hair Dermal Papilla Cells
bFGF, VEGF, and minoxidil decrease collagen production in hair cells, possibly affecting hair growth.
