research Fibroblast Growth Factors: Key Players in Regeneration and Tissue Repair
Fibroblast Growth Factors (FGFs) are important for tissue repair and regeneration, influencing cell behavior and other factors involved in healing, and are crucial in processes like wound healing, bone repair, and hair growth.
research Mature Adipocytes Inhibit the Antimicrobial Function of Dermal Adipogenic Stem Cells: An Explanation for Impaired Cutaneous Defense in Obesity
Obesity can weaken the skin's ability to fight infections because fat cells stop and reduce the infection-fighting properties of nearby stem cells.
research Medication-Induced Repigmentation of Gray Hair: A Systematic Review
Some medications might reverse gray hair, especially those that reduce inflammation or stimulate pigment production, and vitamin B might help.
research Is There Any Correlation Between Breathing Rate and Premature Greying of Hair?
No link between how fast you breathe and early grey hair was found.
research Melatonin
Melatonin may help with sleep issues, depression, and cancer, but more research is needed.
research Responses of Hair Follicle–Associated Structures to Loss of Planar Cell Polarity Signaling
Loss of Fz6 disrupts hair follicle and associated structures' orientation.
research Active Compounds With Medicinal Potential Found in Maxillariinae Benth. Representatives: A Review

research From Neural Crest Cells to Melanocytes: Cellular Plasticity During Development and Beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Interactions Between the Hair Follicle, the Arrector Pili Muscle, and the Sympathetic Nerve During Development and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Arrector pili muscle regulates hair follicle stem cells, DNA methylation needed for hair cycling, and Wnt/B-catenin signaling starts hair growth.
research Steroidogenic Factor-1 Lineage Origin of Skin Lesions in Carney Complex Syndrome
Skin lesions in Carney complex are likely caused by a specific group of skin cells that promote pigment production due to a genetic mutation.
research The De Novo DNA Methyltransferase DNMT3A Is Required for Epidermal Homeostasis
DNMT3A is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Dermal Wnt/β-Catenin Activation Tunably Controls Hair Follicle Initiation
Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.
research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research Increased Calcidiol Level in Redhaired People: Could Redheadedness Be an Adaptation to Temperate Climate?
Redheaded people have higher levels of a vitamin D precursor, suggesting red hair may be an adaptation for better vitamin D synthesis in areas with less sunlight.
research Epithelial Growth Control by Neurotrophins: Leads and Lessons from the Hair Follicle
Neurotrophins are important for hair growth and could help treat hair loss.
research Measurement of Hair Growth
Scalp hair grows at 0.37 mm/day, forearm hair at 0.18 mm/day, and thigh hair at 0.30 mm/day, with no significant differences found in people with certain hair conditions.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
