research Current Understanding and Treatment of Sex Hormone-Related Hair Diseases
Sex hormones affect hair growth and loss, and treatments for related hair diseases include various medications, hair transplantation, and light therapy.
research Growth Hormone and the Human Hair Follicle
Growth hormone levels affect hair growth and loss, with too much causing excess hair and too little leading to hair loss.
research Human Hair Follicles Contain Two Forms of ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels, Only One Sensitive to Minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research A Prostaglandin D-Synthase-Positive Mast Cell Gradient Characterizes Scalp Patterning
Certain immune cells are more common on the top of the head and might help predict or treat common hair loss.
research Hair Cycle-Specific Expression of Versican in Human Hair Follicles
Versican, a protein, is less present in thinning hair follicles and this decrease might contribute to common hair loss in men.
research The 5alpha-Reductase Type 1, But Not Type 2, Gene Is Expressed in Anagen Hairs Plucked from the Vertex Area of the Scalp of Hirsute Women and Normal Individuals
The gene SDR5A1 is found in scalp hair of both hirsute and normal individuals, but it does not explain differences in hair growth.
research Gene Expression of Type 2 17β Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in Scalp Hairs of Hirsute Women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Evidence of Increased DNA Methylation of the Androgen Receptor Gene in Occipital Hair Follicles from Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with hair loss have more DNA changes in back-of-head hair follicles, possibly protecting them from thinning.
research Characteristics of Nonbalding Scalp Zones of Androgenetic Alopecia in East Asians
Hair density and thickness decrease in all scalp areas for East Asians with AGA.
research Signaling Networks Between Stem Cell Precursors, Transit Amplifying Progenitors, and Their Niche in Developing Hair Follicles
Blocking Prostaglandin D₂ (PGD₂) could help treat hair loss.
research Keratinocyte Growth Inhibition Through the Modification of Wnt Signaling by Androgen in Balding Dermal Papilla Cells
Androgens slow hair growth by altering Wnt signaling in balding cells.
research Scalp Dermoscopy of Androgenetic Alopecia in Asian People
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Glycogen Phosphorylase Inhibitor Promotes Hair Growth via Protecting from Oxidative Stress and Regulating Glycogen Breakdown in Human Hair Follicles
A new compound, HTPI, promotes hair growth by protecting cells from damage and regulating energy use.
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 The Investigation of Insulin Resistance and Metabolic Syndrome in Male Patients with Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Early balding men may have insulin resistance, but lifestyle changes can help.
research Age-Dependent Associations Between Androgenetic Alopecia and Prostate Cancer Risk
Early balding at 40 increases prostate cancer risk.
research Alopecia Areata: Clinical Perspective and an Insight into Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata causes hair loss due to an immune attack on hair follicles, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Mild Cutaneous Manifestation in Two Young Women with Extraordinary Hyperandrogenemia
Two women with very high androgen levels had only slight skin issues, one due to a non-classical adrenal disorder and the other due to an adrenal tumor.
research Androgenic Alopecia, Premature Graying, and Hair Thinning as Independent Predictors of Coronary Artery Disease in Young Asian Males
Early balding, premature graying, and hair thinning can predict heart disease in young Asian males.
research Functional Hair Follicle Regeneration
Scientists made working hair follicles using stem cells, helping future hair loss treatments.
research The Glypican-1/HGF/C-Met and Glypican-1/VEGF/VEGFR2 Ternary Complexes Regulate Hair Follicle Angiogenesis
Glypican-1 is important for blood vessel growth in hair follicles and could help treat hair loss.
research Activin A-Induced Signaling Controls Hair Follicle Neogenesis
Activin A is important for creating new hair follicles.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Therapeutic Strategy for Hair Regeneration: Hair Cycle Activation, Niche Environment Modulation, Wound-Induced Follicle Neogenesis, and Stem Cell Engineering
The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
research 702 dsRNA Induces Ectopic KRT9 Expression via WNT/β-Catenin-Mediated Signaling
Double-stranded RNA activates a pathway that causes a skin protein to be expressed in the wrong place.
research Why Care About Linear Hair Growth Rates? A Study Using In Vivo Imaging and Computer-Assisted Image Analysis After Manual Processing in Unaffected Male Controls and Men with Male Pattern Hair Loss
