New protein changes may be involved in the immune attack on hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research Physiological Functions of PP2A: Lessons from Genetically Modified Mice
Mice studies show that Protein Phosphatase 2A is crucial for cell growth, development, and disease prevention.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Wound Healing, Cutaneous Therapy, Hair
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.
research Cellutome Epidermal Harvesting System and In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy as a Novel Wound Healing Assessment Protocol
The new protocol using Cellutome™ and RCM safely assesses wound healing in detail.
research Delayed Cutaneous Wound Healing and Aberrant Expression of Hair Follicle Stem Cell Markers in Mice Selectively Lacking Ctip2 in Epidermis
Lack of Ctip2 in skin cells delays wound healing and disrupts hair follicle stem cell markers in mice.
research The Regulatory Role of the Tetrapeptide AcSDKP in Skin and Hair Physiology and the Prevention of Aging Effects in These Tissues – A Potential Cosmetic Role
AcSDKP may help prevent skin and hair aging and promote their growth.
research Decorin Promotes Proliferation and Migration of ORS Keratinocytes and Maintains Hair Anagen in Mice
Decorin helps hair cells grow and move, and keeps hair growth phase going in mice.
research Reductive Stress Selectively Disrupts Collagen Homeostasis and Modifies Growth Factor-independent Signaling Through the MAPK/Akt Pathway in Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Reductive stress messes up collagen balance and alters cell signaling in human skin cells, which could help treat certain skin diseases.
research Anti-Inflammatory and Anti-Hyperplastic Effect of Bazhengsan in a Male Rat Model of Chronic Nonbacterial Prostatitis
Bazhengsan reduces inflammation and tissue growth in chronic prostatitis.
research Microneedling: A Means of Collagen Induction Therapy
Microneedling is a simple, affordable treatment that helps with scars, wrinkles, stretch marks, and hair growth by boosting collagen.
research Cutaneous Wounds Healed at the Cost of Overall Fitness in the Aged Balb/C Mouse Model
Older mice healed wounds better but lost more weight and might have weaker immune systems afterward.

Ginseng and Albizia extracts may help prevent age-related hair thinning.
research CXCR3 Blockade Inhibits T Cell Migration Into the Skin and Prevents Development of Alopecia Areata
Blocking the CXCR3 receptor reduces T cell accumulation in the skin and prevents hair loss in mice.
research Fibromodulin Reduces Scar Formation in Adult Cutaneous Wounds by Eliciting a Fetal-Like Phenotype
Fibromodulin treatment helps reduce scarring and improves wound healing by making it more like fetal healing.
research Expression of Matrix Metalloproteinases and Tissue Inhibitor of Matrix Metalloproteinases in the Hair Cycle
