Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research An Analysis of Gene Expression Data Involving Examination of Signaling Pathways Activation Reveals New Insights into the Mechanism of Action of Minoxidil Topical Foam in Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Minoxidil foam helps hair growth by increasing good proteins and decreasing bad pathways in men with hair loss.
research Microscopical Characterization of Known Postmortem Root Bands Using Light and Scanning Electron Microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Novel Missense Mutation in the EDA Gene in a Family Affected by Oligodontia
Researchers found a new mutation in the EDA gene that likely causes missing teeth and mild skin symptoms in one family.
research In Vitro Assembly Properties of Human Type I and II Hair Keratins
