research Indications for a Brain-Hair Follicle Axis: Inhibition of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Up-Regulation of Keratinocyte Apoptosis in Telogen Hair Follicles by Stress and Substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Comment on Scalp Neuropathy in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
research Optical Coherence Tomography Examination of Hair
OCT can effectively examine and reveal details about human hair and scalp conditions.
research Commensal Microbiome Promotes Hair Follicle Regeneration by Inducing Keratinocyte HIF-1α Signaling and Glutamine Metabolism
The skin's microbiome helps hair regrow by boosting certain cell signals and metabolism.
research Clinical and Histopathologic Features of Hair Loss in Patients with HIV-1 Infection
People with late-stage HIV-1 often experience a specific type of hair loss linked to multiple factors, including nutritional issues and immune responses.
research The Effect of Proteolytic Enzymes on Hair Follicles of Transgenic Mice Expressing the Lac Z-Protein in Cells of the Bulge Region
Proteolytic enzymes damage hair follicles by detaching stem cells.
research Hair Loss (Alopecia or Baldness)
Baldness is often hereditary and linked to male hormones, becoming noticeable when half the hair is lost.
research Hair Follicle Biology and Topical Minoxidil: Possible Mechanisms of Action
Minoxidil stimulates hair growth by increasing hair thickness and prolonging growth phase.
research Differential Expression of Proteins Associated with the Hair Follicle Cycle: Proteomics and Bioinformatics Analyses
Researchers found 44 proteins that change during different hair growth stages and may be important for hair follicle function.
research The Role of Integrin AlphaVbeta6 in Impaired Wound Healing and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Integrin alphavbeta6 is important for wound healing and hair growth, and blocking it may improve these processes.
research Molecular Basis for Hair Loss in Mice Carrying a Novel Nonsense Mutation (Hr^rh-R) in the Hairless Gene (Hr)
A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research Molecular Functional Analyses Revealed Essential Roles of HSP90 and Lamin A/C in Growth, Migration, and Self-Aggregation of Dermal Papilla Cells
HSP90 and lamin A/C are crucial for hair growth and could be targets for treating hair loss.
research Nutraceuticals Known to Promote Hair Growth Do Not Interfere with the Inhibitory Action of Tamoxifen in MCF7, T47D, and BT483 Breast Cancer Cell Lines
Certain nutraceuticals may enhance hair growth without affecting the cancer-fighting properties of tamoxifen.
research Human Hair Follicle and Epidermal Melanocytes Exhibit Striking Differences in Their Aging Profile Involving Catalase
Hair follicle cells age faster and lose pigment due to less catalase, causing hair to turn gray.
research Preparing the Hair Follicle Canal for Hair Shaft Emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Cyclosporin A-Induced Hair Growth in Mice Is Associated with Inhibition of Calcineurin-Dependent Activation of NFAT in Follicular Keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Comment on Malloy (2008): James Watson Tells the Inconvenient Truth and Faces the Consequences
The conclusion suggests a new treatment for infantile hemangiomas and a potential target for hair loss treatment.
research Intrinsic Activation of Cell Growth and Differentiation in Ex Vivo Cultured Human Hair Follicles by a Transient Endogenous Production of ROS
