CK15 is not a reliable marker for stem cells in damaged hair follicles from patients with CCCA.
research An Overview of Alopecias
The document explains different types of hair loss, their causes, and treatments, and suggests future research areas.
research Isolation, Cultivation, and Morphological Characteristics of Hair Follicle Adult Stem Cells in the Bulge Region in Mouse and Human
Researchers successfully grew hair follicle stem cells from mice and humans, which could be useful for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.
research Primary Follicular Dystrophy With Scarring Dermatitis in C57BL/6 Mouse Substrains Resembles Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia in Humans
Certain mouse strains develop a skin condition similar to a human hair loss disease due to genetic defects.
research Hair and Nails: Insights from 2009 Studies
Low-dose acitretin helps nail psoriasis, stem cells may treat scarring alopecia, Chinese men have lower baldness rates, lateral foldplasty is good for ingrown toenails, hair diameter helps diagnose female baldness, childhood trauma linked to alopecia areata, certain hair-weaving leads to scalp conditions in African American women, and new methods for hair research and understanding hair and sweat gland development were introduced.
research The Thinning Top: Why Older People Have Less Hair
Old people have less hair because their hair follicles don't regenerate as well, not because of fewer stem cells, and a protein called follistatin might help reactivate hair growth.
research Support for Dermatological Research in Sub-Saharan Africa: Insights from African Hair and Skin Research Programs
The document concludes that more local research on African skin and hair is needed despite increased scientific output from Sub-Saharan Africa.
research A Systematic Review of the Outcome of Hair Transplantation in Primary Scarring Alopecia
Hair transplantation may work for some types of scarring alopecia, but results vary and more research is needed.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
FAPD and possibly CCCA may be AGA subtypes, and treatments combining antiandrogens, hair growth agents, hair transplants, and anti-inflammatories could be effective.

research Hair and Scalp Disorders in Women of African Descent
Afro-textured hair is more fragile and prone to certain scalp conditions, requiring careful treatment and more research for effective management.
research Topical Minoxidil Adherence in Alopecia Patients
The research found that certain characteristics like age, sex, race, marital status, and education level can influence whether alopecia patients stick to their hair loss treatment with topical minoxidil.
research Different Polyamine Levels in the Vertex and Occipital Hair of Pattern Hair Loss Patients
People with pattern hair loss have higher polyamine levels in the top of their head compared to the back.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research The Diagnosis and Management of Alopecia
The article concludes that early treatment of alopecia is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Principles and Techniques of Surgical Hair Restoration
Surgical hair restoration involves moving hair from a non-balding area to a balding area, with the transplanted hair not subject to male pattern baldness. Medications can slow hair loss and regrow some hair, but successful treatment needs careful planning, skill, and ethical responsibility due to progressive hair loss and limited donor hair.
