research The Biology of Hair Diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
research The Ludwig Pattern of Androgenetic Alopecia Is Due to a Hierarchy of Androgen Sensitivity Within Follicular Units That Leads to Selective Miniaturization and a Reduction in the Number of Terminal Hairs Per Follicular Unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research Different Gene Expression Profile Observed in Dermal Papilla Cells Related to Androgenic Alopecia by DNA Macroarray Analysis
Hair loss in balding individuals is linked to changes in specific hair growth-related genes.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Types of Hair Loss and Treatment Options, Including the Novel Low-Level Light Therapy and Its Proposed Mechanism
Hair loss treatments include medications and new methods like low-level light therapy, which may work by boosting cell activity and blood flow.
research Practical Guidelines for Evaluation of Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome
Loose anagen hair syndrome, often affecting young girls, can be diagnosed with a hair-pull test and usually gets better on its own, but severe cases may need treatment.
research Scalp Hair Characteristics in the Newborn Infant
Assessing newborn scalp hair can reveal important health information.
research Hair Removal With Intense Pulsed Light
