research Neuroendocrinology of the Hair Follicle: Principles and Clinical Perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Dermal β-Catenin Is Required for Hedgehog-Driven Hair Follicle Neogenesis
β-Catenin is essential for new hair growth after skin injury.
research Keratinocyte Stem Cells: Role in Aging
Aging reduces skin stem cell function, leading to changes like hair loss and slower wound healing.
research Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone and the Skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research In Vitro Cultivation of Dermal-Epidermal Composites in a Single Medium Supports Human Hair Follicle Neogenesis in Xenografts
A single medium, PRIME AIRLIFT, supports better human hair follicle formation in grafts.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Despite progress in treatment, the exact cause of Alopecia areata is still unknown.

A woman with alopecia totalis regrew dark hair in bands after using a corticosteroid ointment.
research Hair Follicle: A Novel Source of Multipotent Stem Cells for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a promising source for tissue repair and treating skin or hair diseases.
research Changes in Different Melanocyte Populations During Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Different melanocyte types in hair follicles either survive or die during the catagen phase.
research Stem Cells of the Hair Follicular Tissue: Application in Cell-Based Therapy for Vitiligo
Hair follicle stem cells could be used to treat the skin condition vitiligo.
research Expression Patterns of MITF During Human Cutaneous Embryogenesis: Evidence for Bulge Epithelial Expression and Persistence of Dermal Melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Manifest Hair Repigmentation Associated with Etretinate Therapy
An 82-year-old man's white hair regained color after taking etretinate for psoriasis.
research Melanocytes: A Possible Autoimmune Target in Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes might be targeted by the immune system in people with alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Influence of Depigmenting Chemical Agents on Hair and Skin Color in Yellow (Pheomelanic) and Black (Eumelanic) Mice
Certain chemicals cause hair graying in black mice but not yellow mice.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia Preceding the Development of Vitiligo: A Case Report
Hair loss condition FFA was seen before the appearance of skin depigmentation vitiligo in a patient.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Anti-Graying Effect of the Extract of Pueraria Thunbergiana via Upregulation of cAMP/MITF-M Signaling Pathway
Pueraria thunbergiana extract may help prevent hair from turning gray.
research Single-Hair Follicular Unit Transplant for Stable Vitiligo
Follicular unit transplant successfully repigmented vitiligo patch on upper lip.
research The Melanocyte Photosensory System in Human Skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Punch Graft Versus Follicular Hair Transplantation in the Treatment of Stable Vitiligo
Punch grafting treats vitiligo faster but can cause a cobblestone look, while follicular hair transplantation is slower but looks better and has no side effects.
research Follicular Transplantation, Microneedling, and Adjuvant Narrow-Band Ultraviolet-B Irradiation as Cost-Effective Regimens for Palmar-Plantar Vitiligo: A Pilot Study
Combining hair transplantation with microneedling or laser and UV light may help treat tough vitiligo on hands and feet, with microneedling being affordable and easy to learn.
research Mechanisms of Hair Graying: Incomplete Melanocyte Stem Cell Maintenance in the Niche
Hair graying is caused by the loss of pigment cells due to poor maintenance of stem cells in the hair follicle.
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 The Silver Locus Product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a New Tool for the Analysis of Melanosome Transfer in Human Melanocyte–Keratinocyte Co-Culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Hair Organ Regeneration Via Bioengineered Hair Follicular Unit Transplantation
Scientists successfully created and transplanted bioengineered hair follicles that function like natural ones, suggesting a new treatment for hair loss.
research Melanocyte and Gonad Activity as Potential Severity Modifying Factors in C3H/HeJ Mouse Alopecia Areata
