research Towards a Molecular Understanding of Hair Loss and Its Treatment
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.
research Telogen Effluvium: A Comprehensive Review
Telogen effluvium is a reversible hair loss condition that requires a detailed diagnosis and often resolves on its own.
research Growth Factors in Hair Organ Development and the Hair Growth Cycle
Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.
research Corticosterone Inhibits GAS6 to Govern Hair Follicle Stem-Cell Quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt10b Overexpression Induces Hair Follicle Regeneration
Wnt10b overexpression can regenerate hair follicles, possibly helping treat hair loss and alopecia.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Pilosebaceous Physiology in Relation to Hirsutism and Acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
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 Keratin 79 Identifies a Novel Population of Migratory Epithelial Cells That Initiates Hair Canal Morphogenesis and Regeneration
Keratin 79 marks a new group of cells that are key for creating and repairing the hair follicle's structure.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Modulating Hair Follicle Size with Wnt10b/DKK1 During Hair Regeneration
Wnt10b makes hair follicles bigger, but DKK1 can reverse this effect.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Glutamine Metabolism Controls Stem Cell Fate Reversibility and Long-Term Maintenance in the Hair Follicle
Glutamine metabolism affects hair stem cell maintenance and their ability to change back to stem cells.
research Optimal Management of Hair Loss (Alopecia) in Children
Effective management of children's hair loss involves accurate diagnosis, various treatments, and supportive care.
research Cultured Human and Rat Tooth Papilla Cells Induce Hair Follicle Regeneration and Fiber Growth
Tooth papilla cells can help regenerate hair follicles and grow hair.
research Mechanism of Action of Herbs and Their Active Constituents Used in Hair Loss Treatment
Some herbs and their components might help treat hair loss by affecting various biological pathways, but more research and regulation are needed.
research Kenogen in Female Androgenetic Alopecia
Kenogen increases with hair loss in women.
research Stem Cell Factor/c-Kit Signaling in Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research The Advantages of Hair Follicle Pluripotent Stem Cells Over Embryonic Stem Cells and Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a practical and ethical option for nerve repair in regenerative medicine.
research Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein and the PTH Receptor Regulate Angiogenesis of the Skin
PTHrP and its receptor can control blood vessel growth and hair development in mouse skin.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Does the Arrector Pili Muscle Have a Role in Hair Loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
research Keratinocyte Stem Cells but Not Melanocyte Stem Cells Are the Primary Target for Radiation-Induced Hair Graying
Radiation mainly affects keratinocyte stem cells, not melanocyte stem cells, causing hair to gray.
research Limitations of Human Occipital Scalp Hair Follicle Organ Culture for Studying the Effects of Minoxidil as a Hair Growth Enhancer
