Growth hormone is important for regulating human hair growth.
research New Aspects of the Structure of Human Hair Based on Optical Microscopic Observations of Disassembled Hair Parts
Human hair's strength comes from a honeycomb-like structure and macrofibrils.
research DNA Determination of Human Hair Bulbs in Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss happens due to faster cell growth and fewer cells in affected follicles.
research Human Hair Follicles Can Taste: Stimulation of the Bitter Taste Receptor TAS2R4 Inhibits Hair Growth Ex Vivo by Up-Regulating TGF-β2
Activating a bitter taste receptor in hair follicles can stop hair growth by increasing a specific growth factor.
research Potency of Implanting Microencapsulated Human Hair Dermal Papilla Cells to Induce Hair Follicle Formation
Microencapsulated human hair cells can successfully grow new hair follicles in mice.

Caffeine applied to the scalp can protect hair follicles from UV damage.
research Effect of Intense Pulsed Light Treatment on Human Skin In Vitro: Analysis of Immediate Effects on Dermal Papillae and Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Intense pulsed light treatment mainly damages pigmented hair parts but spares stem cells, allowing hair to regrow.
research IL-15 Is an Unexpected Guardian of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege and Promotes Human Hair Growth Ex Vivo
IL-15 helps protect hair follicles from immune attacks and encourages hair growth.
research The PPAR-γ Modulator, N-Acetyl-GED, Protects From Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Hair Follicles: Potential Relevance for Scarring Alopecia
N-acetyl-GED may help prevent and partially reverse a process that leads to scarring hair loss.
research Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone: A New Player in Human Hair Growth Control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Hedgehog Signaling Maintains Hair Follicle Stem Cell Phenotype in Young and Aged Human Skin
Hedgehog signaling helps keep hair follicle stem cells the same in both young and old human skin.
research Characterization of Human KAP24.1, A Cuticular Hair Keratin-Associated Protein with Unusual Amino Acid Composition and Repeat Structure
Scientists discovered a unique hair protein, KAP24.1, with a special structure, found only in the upper part of hair cuticles.
research Valproic Acid Promotes Human Hair Growth in In Vitro Culture Model
Valproic acid may help hair grow and could be a safe treatment for hair loss.
research Nature-Derived Lignan Compound VB-1 Exerts Hair Growth-Promoting Effects by Augmenting Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
