research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research Hair Restoration in Androgenetic Alopecia: Looking Beyond Minoxidil, Finasteride, and Hair Transplantation
Alternative treatments show promise for hair growth beyond traditional methods.
research Minoxidil-Induced Trichostasis Spinulosa of Terminal Hair
Minoxidil use can cause trichostasis spinulosa in long-term hair loss patients.
research The Murine Hair Follicle Is a Melatonin Target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Overactive Bladder in Men: Finasteride for Androgenetic Alopecia
Finasteride increases hair count and improves hair growth with low risk of side effects.
research Fortnightly Review: Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in men is common, treatable, but not curable.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Clinical Features, Classification, and Treatments
Male pattern hair loss is genetic and influenced by hormones, with treatments like minoxidil and surgery available.
research Experimental and Early Investigational Drugs for Androgenetic Alopecia
New hair loss treatments may include topical medications, injections, and improved transplant methods.
research A Randomized Double-Blind, Vehicle-Controlled Bilateral Comparison Study of the Efficacy and Safety of Finasteride 0.5% Solution in Combination with Intense Pulsed Light in the Treatment of Facial Hirsutism
Finasteride and intense pulsed light effectively reduce unwanted facial hair in women, but may not be cost-effective.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Glutamate Transporter SLC1A3 Mediates Inter-Niche Stem Cell Activation During Skin Growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Topical Minoxidil for Hair Growth in Alopecia Areata and Androgenetica
Minoxidil promotes hair regrowth, but more research needed for effectiveness and response factors.
research Alopecia in Children: The Most Common Causes
The four main causes of hair loss in children are fungal infections, pulling out hair, autoimmune hair loss, and stress-related hair shedding.
research Antiandrogen Therapy for Androgenetic Alopecia
Antiandrogen therapy helps treat genetic hair loss.
research Pharmacological Treatment of Alopecia

research Regional Dermatology: Hair and Nail Biology, Hair Loss Conditions, and Dermatological Issues of the Mouth and Genital Regions
The document explains hair and nail biology, common hair loss conditions and treatments, oral and genital skin diseases, and the risks and treatments associated with squamous cell carcinoma.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Recurring Chemotherapy-Associated Alopecia Areata: Case Report and Literature Review
Chemotherapy may cause recurring hair loss due to an autoimmune response.
research Antiandrogen Treatment of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Antiandrogen treatments combined with oral contraceptives can help manage hair growth and hair loss in women with PCOS.
research In Silico Analysis of Gene Expression Data from Bald Frontal and Haired Occipital Scalp to Identify Candidate Genes in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Found 32 genes linked to male baldness, affecting hair growth and stress-related pathways.
research Alopecia Areata: Immune Function and Treatment Options
The cause of alopecia areata was unknown, and while various treatments existed, no best treatment was agreed upon.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
Low-dose oral minoxidil effectively reduces hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss.
research Age-Associated Thin Hair Displays Molecular, Structural, and Mechanical Characteristic Changes
