research Environmental Pathobiology of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: Does Linalool Promote FFA Development and Progression by Inducing Epithelial Hair Follicle Stem Cell Damage and MICA Expression in the Bulge?
Linalool in personal care products may worsen frontal fibrosing alopecia by damaging hair follicle stem cells and triggering harmful immune responses.
research Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress Upregulates NKG2D Ligands in the Hair Follicle
Stress in hair follicle cells increases certain immune-related proteins, which might contribute to hair loss conditions.
research Association of Fibrosis in the Bulge Portion with Hair Follicle Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia
Fibrosis in the bulge area of hair follicles can cause hair thinning in male pattern baldness, and drugs that inhibit fibrosis might help reverse this.
