The research found that people's hair proteins vary by individual and body part, with some differences between ethnic groups, which could help in forensics.

Hair follicles significantly enhance electroosmotic transport during iontophoresis.

Human hair follicles grown in vitro maintain normal keratin patterns and structure.

Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.

Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.

Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.

Partial hair follicle extraction can effectively double the number of hair follicles for transplants, with most surviving and growing normally after a year.

Hair follicles help attract immune cells to the skin during stress.

Ruby laser pulses best destroy hair follicles during the growth phase and effectiveness varies with laser intensity; melanin is key for targeting, and timing treatments can improve results.

Intense pulsed light treatment effectively reduces underarm hair by making hair follicles smaller and extending their resting phase.

Hair follicles can be kept in RNAlater® at cool or room temperature for a week without harming RNA quality.

Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.

Human hair proteins vary by individual, body site, and ethnicity, useful for forensics.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.

Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.

Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.

The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.

Researchers created a lab model to study human hair growth, showing it can grow and self-regulate outside the body.

Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.

Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.

Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.

Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) slows down hair growth and promotes hair follicle regression.

Different hair growth problems are caused by genetic issues or changes in hair growth cycles, and new treatments are being developed.

Cooling hair micrografts during transplantation does not improve their survival or growth.

Body and beard hair can be used for hair restoration in severely bald patients, but the technique is complex and costly.

Modern hair restoration techniques have evolved from punch grafting to methods like micro-grafting and follicular unit transplantation, but they are labor-intensive, expensive, and can lead to patient dissatisfaction. Future treatments may involve cloned hair follicles and drugs like finasteride.

The long-pulsed alexandrite laser is effective for hair reduction, particularly for light-skinned individuals with dark hair, but caution is needed for darker skin.

A new storage solution may increase hair transplant graft survival.

New imaging techniques show testosterone delays hair growth and shrinks follicles in mice, but have limited depth for viewing.

Androgenic alopecia causes hair follicle degradation and skin restructuring, but some hair elements remain.
