120-150 / 1000+ results research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research Increased Androgen Binding Capacity in Sebaceous Glands in Scalp of Male-Pattern Baldness
Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.
research Fractional Photothermolysis Laser Treatment of Male Pattern Hair Loss
Laser treatment can stimulate hair growth for male pattern hair loss.
research Poliosis Circumscripta: Overview And Underlying Causes
Poliosis circumscripta is a patch of white hair caused by lack of melanin, linked to genetic and acquired conditions.
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque
Testosterone can slow hair growth in adult monkeys, but a blocker called RU 58841 can counteract this and potentially help hair regrow.
research Complementary Evolution of Coding and Noncoding Sequence Underlies Mammalian Hairlessness
Both gene and non-gene areas of DNA evolved to make some mammals hairless.
research Complementary Evolution of Coding and Noncoding Sequence Underlies Mammalian Hairlessness
Hairless mammals have genetic changes in both their protein-coding and regulatory sequences related to hair.
research New York Dermatological Society
The meeting highlighted the complexity and variability of skin conditions and differing opinions on their diagnoses and treatments.
research Protective and Cleansing Effect of a Skin Care Product Against Pollen Allergen Accumulation in the Hair Follicle
The skin care product prevents and removes pollen allergens from the skin.
research Tactile Innervation Densities Across the Whole Body
Young adults have about 230,000 tactile nerve fibers, decreasing 5-8% per decade with age.
research Temporary Hair Removal by Low Fluence Photoepilation: Histological Study on Biopsies and Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Low fluence photoepilation temporarily removes hair by targeting the hair follicle's pigmented area without severe damage.
research Reepithelialization of a Full-Thickness Burn from Stem Cells of Hair Follicles Micrografted into a Tissue-Engineered Dermal Template (Integra)
Hair follicle stem cells helped heal a severe scalp burn without needing traditional skin grafts.
research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Single Hair Grafting for the Treatment of Vitiligo
Single hair grafting is effective for treating small, localized patches of vitiligo.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque
Testosterone can slow down hair growth when combined with certain cells from bald scalps, and this effect can be blocked by an androgen receptor blocker.
research Telogen Effluvium and Minoxidil
Minoxidil treatment may cause hair loss.
research Single-Hair Follicular Unit Transplant for Stable Vitiligo
Follicular unit transplant successfully repigmented vitiligo patch on upper lip.
research Obliteration of Alopecia by Hair-Lifting: A New Concept and Technique

research Becker's Nevus Syndrome
Becker's Nevus Syndrome is a rare condition with a skin patch and possible bone and muscle abnormalities, treated mainly for appearance.
research Overview of Follicular Unit Extraction
Follicular unit extraction is a hair transplant method that can leave small scars and uses various tools for harvesting hair from different body parts.
research Hair for Brain Trade-Off: A Metabolic Bypass for Encephalization
Human hair loss may have evolved to help increase brain size.
research Ancient Lineages of the Keratin-Associated Protein (KRTAP) Genes and Their Co-Option in the Evolution of the Hair Follicle
