research Alopecia Areata: A Tissue-Specific Autoimmune Disease of the Hair Follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
research Histopathological Characteristics May Not Be Useful in the Differential Diagnosis Between Basal Cell Carcinoma and Benign Tumors of Cutaneous Appendages Originating from Hair Follicle
Looking at tissue characteristics isn't reliable for telling apart basal cell carcinoma from certain benign skin tumors.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Autoantigen Discovery in the Hair Loss Disorder, Alopecia Areata: Implications of Post-Translational Modifications

research Zinc as an Ambivalent but Potent Modulator of Murine Hair Growth In Vivo: Preliminary Observations
Zinc can both inhibit and stimulate mouse hair growth, and might help recover hair after chemotherapy.
research Laser Hair Removal: Efficacy and Challenges
Laser hair removal works well for people with dark hair and light skin, but it's less effective for light hair or dark skin; improvements are expected.
research Hair Follicular Cell/Organ Culture in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for hair regrowth despite potential side effects.
