The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.
research Effects of Epidermal Growth Factor on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research Azasteroids as Inhibitors of Testosterone 5α-Reductase in Mammalian Skin
Certain 4-azasteroids are effective at blocking the enzyme that processes testosterone in human skin and could help treat acne, excessive hair growth, and male pattern baldness.
research Somatostatin Expression in Human Hair Follicles and Its Potential Role in Immune Privilege
Somatostatin may help protect hair follicles from immune attacks.
research Histologic Study of the Regeneration Process of Human Hair Follicles Grafted onto SCID Mice after Bulb Amputation
Human hair follicles can regenerate and recover after severe injury by going through a brief abnormal resting phase before growing again.
research Physiology and Medical Treatments for Alopecia
Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy are effective FDA-approved treatments for hair loss.
research Induction of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Messenger Ribonucleic Acid Expression in Stored Micrografts by Aminoguanidine
