research Keratin Disorders: From Gene to Therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Improving Stable Isotopic Interpretations Made From Human Hair Through Reduction of Growth Cycle Error
The conclusion is that recognizing hair growth cycles can improve the precision of dietary and health assessments from hair analysis.
research Expression of Calcium-Binding S100 Proteins A4 and A6 in Regions of the Epithelial Sac Associated with the Onset of Hair Follicle Regeneration
S100A4 and S100A6 proteins may activate stem cells for hair follicle regeneration and could be potential targets for hair loss treatments.

research Hair Shaft Abnormalities: Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research The Adsorption Behavior of Cationic Surfactant onto Human Hair Fibers
A certain surfactant sticks to human hair, making it change from water-repelling to water-attracting, which could help in hair conditioning.
research Age-Related Hair Changes in Men: Mechanisms and Management of Alopecia and Graying
Men's hair loss is caused by hormones and genes, and can be treated with medication and surgery, while graying is due to aging and has no prevention except dyeing.
