research Thyroid Hormone Action on Skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research Malignancy and Cancer Treatment-Related Hair and Nail Changes
Hair and nail changes can indicate health issues, including cancer and side effects from cancer treatments.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research The Biology of Hair Care
Better hair care products are needed to protect against grooming and chemical damage.
research Ephrins Negatively Regulate Cell Proliferation in the Epidermis and Hair Follicle
Ephrins slow down skin and hair follicle cell growth.
research Aging in Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Niche Microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research The Hair Cycle And Its Regulation
Hormones, nutrition, and seasonal changes regulate hair growth cycles, with androgens extending growth phases and factors like aging and malnutrition affecting hair loss and thinning.
research Stem Cells and Alopecia: A Review of Pathogenesis
Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
research Follicular Streamers (Stelae) in Scarring and Non-Scarring Alopecia
Hair root sheaths are more common in non-scarring hair loss and help diagnose the type of hair loss.
research Differential Expression of Stem Cell Markers in Human Follicular Bulge and Interfollicular Epidermal Compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research Immune Cell Regulation of the Hair Cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
