research Prostaglandin Metabolism in Human Hair Follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research A Neuroendocrinological Perspective on Human Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Profiling the Response of Human Hair Follicles to Ultraviolet Radiation
UVB radiation harms hair growth and health, causing cell death and other changes in human hair follicles.
research Therapeutic Strategies for Treating Hair Loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research MicroRNA in Skin Diseases
Certain microRNAs are linked to various skin diseases and could be used to diagnose and treat these conditions.
research The Contributory Roles of Th17 Lymphocyte and Cytotoxic T Lymphocyte at the Hair Bulge Region and Hair Bulb Area in Chronic Alopecia Areata Patients
Certain immune cells contribute to severe hair loss in chronic alopecia areata, with Th17 cells possibly having a bigger impact than cytotoxic T cells.
