October 2019 in “Asian Journal of Research in Animal and Veterinary Sciences” Young horses are more prone to a fungal infection causing hair loss and skin redness.
Activin A and follistatin control when ear hair cells form in mice.
Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.
Skin stem cells in hair follicles are important for touch sensation.
Hair follicle stem cells are crucial for touch sensation and proper nerve structure in mice.
January 2018 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” Researchers found key regions in the mouse hairless gene that control its activity in skin and brain cells, affecting hair follicle function.
January 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology Symposium Proceedings” The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
