Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Perifollicular Fibrosis: Pathogenetic Role in Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen hormones cause hair follicle scarring in hair loss, and finasteride helps reduce it.
research Keratin Formation in the Hair Follicle
Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair Syndrome in a 7-Year-Old Girl
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research Erythropoietin Promotes Hair Shaft Growth in Cultured Human Hair Follicles and Modulates Hair Growth in Mice
Erythropoietin helps hair grow and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
