research Growth Factors and Cytokines in Hair Follicle Development and Cycling: Recent Insights from Animal Models and the Potentials for Clinical Therapy
Growth factors and cytokines are important for hair growth and could potentially treat hair loss, but more research is needed to overcome challenges before they can be used in treatments.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research A Role for p75 Neurotrophin Receptor in the Control of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgens
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
research What Controls Hair Follicle Cycling?
The control system for hair growth cycles is not well understood and needs more research.
research Stem Cell Apoptosis in HIV-1 Alopecia
HIV-1 may cause increased stem cell death in hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
