Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research SHISA6 Confers Resistance to Differentiation-Promoting Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Mouse Spermatogenic Stem Cells
SHISA6 helps maintain certain stem cells in mouse testes by blocking signals that would otherwise cause them to differentiate.
research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease
Fat cells are important for healthy skin, hair growth, and healing, and changes in these cells can affect skin conditions and aging.
research Induction of Dark Keratinocytes by 12-O-Tetradecanoyl-Phorbol-13-Acetate and Mezerein as an Indicator of Tumor-Promoting Efficiency
TPA is about 50 times more effective at promoting tumors than MZ.
research Review of Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells as In Vitro Screening Model for Hair Growth
Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
research Alopecia: Evaluation and Treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Stem Cells and the Circadian Clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research Zinc Deficiency and Its Management in the Pediatric Population: A Literature Review and Proposed Etiologic Classification
Zinc deficiency in children can cause skin issues and can be serious if not diagnosed and treated properly.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone: A New Player in Human Hair Growth Control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Expression of Calcium-Binding S100 Proteins A4 and A6 in Regions of the Epithelial Sac Associated with the Onset of Hair Follicle Regeneration
S100A4 and S100A6 proteins may activate stem cells for hair follicle regeneration and could be potential targets for hair loss treatments.
research A Human Folliculoid Microsphere Assay for Exploring Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions in the Human Hair Follicle
HFMs can help study hair growth and test potential hair growth drugs.
research Drug Discovery for Alopecia: Gone Today, Hair Tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Beyond Expectations: The Role of Keratin Intermediate Filament Proteins in Epidermal Integrity
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Replicative Stress, Stem Cells, and Aging
Maintaining DNA health in stem cells is key to preventing aging and tissue breakdown.
research Scalp Dermoscopy or Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a quick, noninvasive method to diagnose hair and scalp disorders, often reducing the need for biopsies.
research The Senescence–Stemness Alliance: A Cancer-Hijacked Regeneration Principle
Cancer can hijack the body's cell repair system to promote tumor growth, and targeting this process may improve cancer treatments.
research Estrogen Functions in Skin and Skin Appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Tumor Regression Predicts Higher Risk of Sentinel Node Involvement in Thin Cutaneous Melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.

Chronic Telogen Effluvium may resolve after years and is diagnosed by examining the patient's history and clinical signs, with treatment aimed at underlying causes and possibly minoxidil.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions During Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research The Cycling Hair Follicle as an Ideal Systems Biology Research Model
The hair follicle is a great model for research to improve hair growth treatments.
