Different types of dog hair loss are linked to problems starting the hair growth phase and early hair cycle ending.
research Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1: Roles in Androgenetic Alopecia
IGF-1 affects hair loss and could be a potential treatment.
research Exogenous Stimulation with Eclipta Alba Promotes Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Downregulates TGF-β1 Expression in Nude Mice

UV-B light increases inflammation-related substances in acne-related skin cells.
research Adenovirus-Mediated Wnt5a Expression Inhibits the Telogen-To-Anagen Transition of Hair Follicles in Mice
Increasing Wnt5a in mice skin delays hair growth but doesn't stop it.
research Making Waves with Hairs: Genetic and Epigenetic Factors in Hair Pattern Formation
Skin patterns are formed by simple reaction-diffusion mechanisms.
research FOXN1 Italian Founder Mutation in Indian Family: Implications in Prenatal Diagnosis
A rare genetic mutation found in an Indian family can be detected through prenatal screening.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution is a unique hair loss condition that may respond to antiandrogen therapy.
research Alopecia Areata in a Rhesus Monkey (Macaca Mulatta)
