Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research To Grow or Not to Grow: Hair Morphogenesis and Human Genetic Hair Disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research Congenital Hair Loss Disorders: Rare, But Not Too Rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Differences in Expression of Specific Biomarkers Distinguish Human Beard from Scalp Dermal Papilla Cells
Beard and scalp hair cells have different gene expressions, which may affect beard growth characteristics.
research Tight Junction Barriers in Human Hair Follicles – Role of Claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Recently Identified Forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa
Three new types of a skin blistering disease were found, caused by specific gene mutations.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research The Bright Side of Fibroblasts: Molecular Signature and Regenerative Cues in Major Organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research Alopecia Areata: Current Situation and Perspectives
Alopecia Areata is a complex, unpredictable autoimmune hair loss condition with limited treatment options and a significant psychological impact.
research Multifaceted Role of Hair Follicle Dermal Cells in Bioengineered Skins
Human hair follicle dermal cells can effectively replace other cells in engineered skin.
research Thyroid Hormone Action in Epidermal Development and Homeostasis and Its Implications in the Pathophysiology of the Skin

research Inherited Epidermolysis Bullosa: Clinical and Therapeutic Aspects
The document concludes that inherited epidermolysis bullosa is a challenging genetic condition requiring multidisciplinary care and new treatments.
research Skin Organoids: A New Human Model for Developmental and Translational Research
Skin organoids are a promising new model for studying human skin development and testing treatments.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research Wound Healing in Development: Mechanisms and Regulation
Wounds heal without scarring in early development but later result in scars, and studying Wnt signaling could help control scarring.
research Hair Loss in Children: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of hair loss in children is crucial due to limited treatment options and the condition's psychological impact.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
