research Conflicting Auxin-Phosphate Signals Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis
Auxin helps root hairs grow in high phosphate by affecting ROS and involving RSL2 and RSL4.
research Functional Mapping of the Mouse Hairless Gene Promoter Region
Researchers found key regions in the mouse hairless gene that control its activity in skin and brain cells, affecting hair follicle function.

Manuka honey is effective for treating wounds and burns.
research Watching Hair Grow: Intravital Two-Photon Imaging of Hair Follicle Regeneration in Transgenic Mice
Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research It's Not Like Growing Grass
Blocking a compound called prostaglandin D₂ might help treat hair loss.
research Hair Loss at 20 Associated with Prostate Cancer Risk Later in Life
Men who start losing hair at 20 may have a higher chance of getting prostate cancer later.
research Role of Polymorphism of the Androgen Receptor Gene and Non-Random X Chromosome Inactivation in the Pathogenesis of Androgenic Alopecia
Certain genes and X chromosome patterns may significantly contribute to the development of hair loss.
research Minireview: Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor has many roles in the body beyond managing calcium, affecting the immune system, hair growth, muscles, fat, bone marrow, and cancer cells.
research Clinical Snippets: Stabilization of Vitamins C and E, Hedgehog Pathway Agonists, Atopic Dermatitis, Lentigo Maligna Melanoma, and Relaxin-Deficient Mice
Ferulic acid helps stabilize vitamins C and E for better skin protection from the sun, certain compounds may promote hair growth, atopic dermatitis patients have lower skin defense molecules, older men are more likely to get a type of skin cancer, and a substance called relaxin may prevent age-related skin thickening.
research Patent Evaluation: Δ-4,6-Steroids as Potent 5α-Reductase Inhibitors
New steroids were patented as effective for treating acne, hair loss, and other conditions related to hormones.
