research The Hairless Gene of the Mouse: Relationship of Phenotypic Effects with Expression Profile and Genotype
Mutations in the hairless gene in mice affect its expression and lead to a range of developmental issues in multiple tissues.
research Electrolysis and Thermolysis for Permanent Hair Removal
The document concludes that electrolysis and thermolysis can permanently remove hair but calls for better regulation to ensure safety, and notes a possibility of hair regrowth and rare complications.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Research Progress in Composition, Classification and Influencing Factors of Hair
Lipids are important for healthy hair, but their exact role is not fully understood and needs more research.
research Chemically Induced Hair Loss/Alopecia
Some chemicals and drugs can cause hair loss, which usually grows back after stopping the treatment.

research Thiosulfate Promotes Hair Growth in Mouse Model
Thiosulfate may help hair grow faster in mice and works well with a common hair growth treatment.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
FAPD and possibly CCCA may be AGA subtypes, and treatments combining antiandrogens, hair growth agents, hair transplants, and anti-inflammatories could be effective.
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 Assessment of the Usefulness of Dihydrotestosterone in the Diagnostics of Patients with Androgenetic Alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research Cleave But Not Leave: Astrotactin Proteins in Development and Disease
Astrotactin proteins are important for brain and skin development and are linked to several neurodevelopmental disorders.
research Tactile Innervation Densities Across the Whole Body
The skin has about 230,000 touch-sensitive nerve fibers, with high concentrations in the hands and face.
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 Editor's Evaluation: Complementary Evolution of Coding and Noncoding Sequence Underlies Mammalian Hairlessness
Hairlessness in mammals is due to complex genetic changes in both genes and regulatory regions.
research The SYP123-VAMP727 SNARE Complex Is Involved in the Delivery of Inner Cell Wall Components to the Root Hair Shank in Arabidopsis
The SYP123-VAMP727 complex is important for transporting materials that harden the root hair shank in Arabidopsis.
research Melatonin Alleviates Oxygen-Glucose Deprivation/Reperfusion-Induced Pyroptosis of HEI-OC1 Cells and Cochlear Hair Cells via MT-1,2/Nrf2/ROS/NLRP3 Pathway
Melatonin may protect inner ear cells from damage by reducing cell death and oxidative stress, potentially treating sudden hearing loss.
research TRPV3 Gain-of-Function Mutation Impairs Differentiation of Hair Follicle Inner Root Sheath
A specific mutation in the TRPV3 gene causes hair follicle cells to develop improperly, leading to hair loss.
