research Single Follicular Unit Transplantation Reconstructs Arrector Pili Muscle and Nerve Connections and Restores Functional Hair Follicle Piloerection
Hair transplant surgery can rebuild muscle and nerve connections, allowing transplanted hairs to stand up like normal hairs.
research CD44 Expression in Alopecia Areata and Androgenetic Alopecia
No CD44 in alopecia areata, present in normal and androgenetic alopecia.
research Ichthyosis Fetalis in a Cross-Bred Lamb
A cross-bred lamb with severe skin and movement issues had ichthyosis fetalis but normal vitamin A levels.
research Comparisons of Mouse Models for Hair Follicle Reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research Acquired Progressive Kinking of the Hair in a Prepubertal Boy
A 10-year-old boy had the earliest reported case of hair that became progressively kinkier but eventually returned to normal on its own.
research Resequencing and Signatures of Selective Scans Point to Candidate Genetic Variants for Hair Length Traits in Long-Haired and Normal-Haired Tianzhu White Yak
The research found specific genes that may cause longer hair in Tianzhu White Yak.
research Review Article: Changing Trends in Hair Restoration Surgery
Hair restoration surgery has improved to transplant hair in natural groupings, but it's labor-intensive and can't fully restore normal hair density.
research A Simple and Rapid Model for Hair-Follicle Regeneration in the Nude Mouse
A new model for hair regeneration in mice was created in 2015, which is faster and less invasive than the old method, producing normal hairs in about 21 days.
research Laminin 332 Is Indispensable for Homeostatic Epidermal Differentiation Programs
Laminin 332 is essential for normal skin cell behavior and structure.
research Enrichment and Characterization of Human Dermal Stem/Progenitor Cells by Intracellular Granularity
