After skin injury, adult mice can grow new hair follicles, and this process can be increased or stopped by manipulating Wnt signals.

Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.

VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.

Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.

Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.

The document concludes that the hair cycle is a complex process involving growth, regression, and rest phases, regulated by various molecular signals.

The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.

Dermatoscopy is useful for identifying different hair and scalp conditions and can reduce the need for biopsies.

Middle-aged women with chronic telogen effluvium experience increased hair shedding but usually don't get significantly thinner hair.

Stem cells help heal skin wounds by moving and changing roles, working with other cells, and needing more research on their activation and behavior.

Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.

Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.

Regenerated fully functional hair follicles using stem cells, with potential for hair regrowth therapy.

The conclusion is that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires good teamwork between skin doctors and lab experts.

Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.

Telocytes might help with skin repair and regeneration.

Dermatoscopy and videodermatoscopy are useful for diagnosing and monitoring various skin, hair, and nail conditions.

Minoxidil treats hair loss, promotes growth, has side effects, and has recent patents.

Effective treatments for male pattern baldness include oral finasteride and topical minoxidil, while topical minoxidil is best for female pattern baldness.

The Sonic hedgehog pathway is crucial for new hair growth during mouse skin healing.

Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair growth and maintaining hair follicle identity.

Most women with hirsutism or androgenic alopecia had polycystic ovaries, especially if they had irregular periods.

The conclusion is that PCOS is caused by ovarian sensitivity to hormones and disrupted hormone control, possibly due to ovarian factors, and more research is needed.

Trichoscopy can diagnose female hair loss with high accuracy by looking for specific patterns in hair and scalp appearance.

Over one-third of women experience hair loss, with female-pattern hair loss being most common, and treatments include minoxidil and possibly hair transplantation.

The document concludes that understanding hair structure is key to diagnosing hair abnormalities and recommends gentle hair care for management.

Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.

Minoxidil can help grow hair in mice by making cells grow and improving hair quality. More research needed.

Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.
