Aging causes hair to gray and thin, with the timing of graying varying by race, and factors like oxidative stress and genetics can lead to hair loss.

Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.

Higher temperatures improve rabbit hair strength up to 50°C, but moisture weakens it.

Several companies launched new hair care ingredients in 2011 to improve conditioning, color retention, combability, and heat protection.

Acidic sandy clay damages archaeological hair the most, while dry conditions preserve but make it brittle; silicone oil can help keep the hair flexible.

Terbinafine is more effective than itraconazole for toenail fungus, especially in older patients, and debridement improves its effectiveness.

Many substances, including chemicals and metals, can cause skin reactions; careful handling and identification of allergens are crucial to prevent dermatitis.

Shaving and avoiding brushing improved the patient's beard hair condition.

The document concludes that different types of hair loss have specific treatments, and early diagnosis is crucial for preventing permanent hair loss.

Ziehl-Neelsen's stain helps identify different parts of hair in sheep and goats.

Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.

The conclusion is that certain cell interactions and signals are crucial for hair growth and regeneration.

Certain proteins, Lgr5 and Lgr6, are important markers of adult stem cells and are involved in tissue repair and cancer development.

Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.

Chemotherapy can cause various skin reactions, with hair loss being the most common, and proper diagnosis and treatment of these reactions are important.

Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.

Chitin and chitosan are useful in cosmetics for oral care, haircare, and skincare, including UV protection and strength improvement.

The document provides a method to classify human hair growth stages using a model with human scalp on mice, aiming to standardize hair research.

A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.

The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.

Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.

Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.

Chemotherapy can cause skin problems like hair loss, mouth sores, and skin darkening, and recognizing these can affect treatment decisions.

CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.

Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.

The document concludes that recognizing and treating cutaneous lupus erythematosus early is crucial for managing the skin and potential systemic symptoms.

Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.

Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.

The dermal papilla is crucial for hair growth and health, and understanding it could lead to new hair loss treatments.

The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of ichthyosis is crucial for treatment and genetic advice, and ongoing research is needed for better therapies.
