A gene mutation causes early keratinocyte maturation leading to hair loss in Olmsted syndrome.
research Perifollicular Inflammation and Follicular Spongiosis in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in both Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata is often accompanied by inflammation around hair follicles, but the location and severity of this inflammation varies.
research Retinoic Acid Drives Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation via Wnt/Beta-Catenin Signalling in Androgenetic Alopecia
Retinoic acid helps activate hair growth in people with common hair loss by working on a specific cell growth pathway.
research Hair Sciences: An Interview with Dr. Rodney Sinclair on Female Pattern Hair Loss
Dr. Rodney Sinclair uses a detailed grading system to diagnose female pattern hair loss, recommends daily spironolactone and minoxidil for treatment, and believes genetics play a role in the condition.
research Human Hair Follicles Operate a Functional Peripheral Equivalent of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Somatotropic Axis Ex Vivo
Human scalp hair follicles can produce hormones and have a system similar to a brain-body communication network.
research An Integrative Analysis of the LncRNA-MiRNA-mRNA Competitive Endogenous RNA Network Reveals Potential Mechanisms in the Murine Hair Follicle Cycle

EVG staining helps tell apart follicular scars from follicular streamers, aiding in diagnosing different types of hair loss.
research Inflammatory Perifollicular Fibrosis And Alopecia
Inflammation around hair follicles leads to hair loss, and treatments should focus on reducing this inflammation and other factors for effectiveness.
research Human Placenta Induces Hair Regrowth in Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia via Inhibition of Apoptotic Factors and Proliferation of Hair Follicles
Human placenta helps hair grow back after chemotherapy by blocking cell death and increasing hair follicle growth.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia Is Due to Hair Follicle Stem Cell Inactivation
Male hair loss is caused by inactive hair follicle stem cells.
research Cultural Evolution as a Possible Triggering or Causative Factor of Common Baldness
Certain cultural hair practices might cause baldness by affecting natural hair oils and stem cell delivery to hair follicles.
