Human hair loss may have evolved to help increase brain size.
research Distinct Tooth Regeneration Systems Deploy a Conserved Battery of Genes
Different species use the same genes for tooth regeneration.
research How His Hair Is Growing Thin: On the Emotional Significance of Male Pattern Hair Loss
Male pattern hair loss can cause significant emotional distress for men.
research Evolution and Function of Vitamin D
Vitamin D is essential for bone health and may reduce risks of several diseases.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior
Hair growth is influenced by various body and external factors, and neighboring hairs communicate to synchronize regeneration.
research The Influence of Age-Related Cues on Health and Longevity
Feeling younger can improve health and extend life.
research Pathophysiology of the Burn Scar
Burn scars heal abnormally and more research is needed to find better treatments.
research Pathophysiology of Burn Scars
Burn scars form abnormally due to changes in wound healing, and more research is needed to improve treatments.
research How Different Is Human Hair? A Critical Appraisal of Global Hair Fibre Characteristics and Properties Towards Defining a More Relevant Framework for Hair Type Classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Obesity and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Implications for Pathogenesis and Novel Management Strategies
Obesity worsens PCOS symptoms, and PCOS may lead to more weight gain; managing both requires a holistic approach that includes mental health.
research A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Low Dose Flutamide, Finasteride, Ketoconazole, and Cyproterone Acetate-Estrogen Regimens in the Treatment of Hirsutism
Cyproterone acetate-estrogen most effective for hirsutism, but consider side effects and patient needs.
research The Facial Adipose Tissue: A Revision
Different types of facial fat affect aging and treatment outcomes; more research is needed to enhance anti-aging procedures.
research A Prospective Randomized Trial Comparing Low Dose Flutamide, Finasteride, Ketoconazole, and Cyproterone Acetate-Estrogen Regimens in the Treatment of Hirsutism
All treatments reduce hair growth; low dose flutamide most effective with fewer side effects.
research Acyl-CoA Binding Protein and Epidermal Barrier Function
ACBP is essential for healthy skin and fur by maintaining the skin's barrier function.

Hair loss can significantly affect a person's self-esteem and body image, especially in young people, those who value their looks highly, and women.
research Complex Hair Cycle Domain Patterns and Regenerative Hair Waves in Living Rodents
Mice hair growth patterns get more complex with age and can change with events like pregnancy or injury.
research A Neuroendocrinological Perspective on Human Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Studies on the Proteome of Human Hair: Identification of Histones and Deamidated Keratins
Human hair contains diverse proteins, including keratins and histones, which could help assess hair health and aging.
research The Role of R-Spondins and Their Receptors in Bone Metabolism
R-spondins and their receptors help increase bone growth and may be used to treat bone loss diseases.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells: Scientific Support for Multiple Therapies
