Some African American women experience central scalp hair loss, often linked to a history of fungal scalp infection.
research Non-Neoplastic Disorders of Hair
The document concludes that different types of hair loss have specific treatments, and early diagnosis is crucial for preventing permanent hair loss.
research Wound Healing And Hair
Some treatments work better for different types of hair loss, and nutrients like iron and L-lysine are important for preventing hair loss.
research C002 Vasculitis: A Differential Diagnostic Approach
The document concludes that corticosteroids effectively treat vasculitis allergica in over 90% of cases, with long-term kidney issues being the main adverse outcome.
research Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Skin lymphoproliferative disorders are hard to diagnose and often linked to systemic diseases, but most have a good prognosis with accurate diagnosis.
research Spironolactone Treatment of Porphyria Cutanea Tarda-Associated Hirsutism
Spironolactone helped reduce excessive facial hair in a woman with porphyria cutanea tarda.
research Westwood Carolina Conference on Clinical Dermatology
The conference concluded that understanding hair and nail disorders is important, iron deficiency may be linked to hair loss, and while some treatments for skin conditions are effective, they may have risks and high costs.
research Generation of an Integration-Free Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell Line MUSIi010-A from Occipital Scalp Fibroblasts of a Male Patient with Androgenetic Alopecia
Scientists created MUSIi010-A, a stem cell line from a balding man's scalp, to study hair loss and develop potential treatments.
research Low-Level Laser Therapy for the Treatment of Male and Female-Pattern Hair Loss: A Review of Literature
Low-level laser therapy helps hair growth and reduces hair loss with few side effects.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins Are Critical Factors for Hair Follicle Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions in Androgenetic Alopecia
BMPs are crucial for hair growth and their decrease by androgens leads to hair loss.
research Unveiling the Role of Estradiol in the Pathogenesis of Female Pattern Hair Loss
research Oral Cyclosporin Does Not Arrest Progression of Androgenetic Alopecia
Cyclosporin doesn't stop hair loss.
research Deletion of the Developmentally Essential Gene ATR in Adult Mice Leads to Age-Related Phenotypes and Stem Cell Loss
Removing the ATR gene in adult mice causes rapid aging and stem cell loss.
research Dedifferentiation of Committed Epithelial Cells Into Stem Cells In Vivo
Certain mature cells in mouse lungs can turn back into stem cells to aid in tissue repair.
research Control of Hair Growth and Follicle Size by VEGF-Mediated Angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Melatonin Membrane Receptors in Peripheral Tissues: Distribution and Functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Adipocyte Lineage Cells Contribute to the Skin Stem Cell Niche to Drive Hair Cycling
Fat-related cells are important for initiating hair growth.
research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Defining the Impact of Beta-Catenin/Tcf Transactivation on Epithelial Stem Cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research The Cutaneous Serotoninergic/Melatoninergic System: Securing a Place Under the Sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Pioneer Factors Govern Super-Enhancer Dynamics in Stem Cell Plasticity and Lineage Choice
Super-enhancers controlled by pioneer factors like SOX9 are crucial for stem cell adaptability and identity.
research Live Imaging of Stem Cell and Progeny Behavior in Physiological Hair-Follicle Regeneration
Hair regeneration needs dynamic cell behavior and mesenchyme presence for stem cell activation.
research Familial Aggregation of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata, a common autoimmune hair loss condition, often runs in families.
research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research Leucine-Rich Repeat-Containing G-Protein-Coupled Receptors as Markers of Adult Stem Cells
Certain proteins, Lgr5 and Lgr6, are important markers of adult stem cells and are involved in tissue repair and cancer development.
