research Relation of Skin Polyamines to the Hairless Phenotype in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase
Excessive putrescine causes hair loss in transgenic mice by disrupting hair follicle development.
research Dermal Papilla Cell Number Specifies Hair Size, Shape, and Cycling, and Its Reduction Causes Follicular Decline
More dermal papilla cells in hair follicles lead to larger, healthier hair, while fewer cells cause hair thinning and loss.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle: The Bridge Between the Follicular Stem Cell Niche and the Interfollicular Epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research Follicular Red Dots: A Normal Trichoscopy Feature in Patients with Pigmentary Disorders?
Follicular red dots may be a normal feature seen in people with less skin pigmentation, not necessarily indicating a scalp disorder.
research Concurrent Follicular Dysplasia and Interface Dermatitis in Boxer Dogs

research Harvested vs Estimated Follicular Units in Hair Transplantation
Actual harvested hair follicles were fewer and differed in type from estimated, with older patients and those with multiple transplants needing more careful planning.
research Clinical Cases of Darier-White Follicular Dyskeratosis
Darier-White disease causes skin and nail issues, starts around age 20, worsens until 40-50, and has poor treatment options.
research Analysis of the Scalp of Women with AIDS Subjected to Autopsy: Epithelial, Follicular, and Immunologic Aspects
