research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth In Vivo
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy in General Dermatology: How to Choose the Right Indication
Reflectance confocal microscopy is useful for diagnosing and monitoring skin diseases, but it has limitations and requires expertise for correct use.
research Study of Seed Hair Growth in Populus Tomentosa, an Important Character of Female Floral Bud Development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
research Expression of Foxi3 Is Regulated by Ectodysplasin in Skin Appendage Placodes
Foxi3 expression in developing teeth and hair is controlled by the ectodysplasin pathway.
research Expression Patterns of Three Estrogen Receptor Genes During Zebrafish Development: Evidence for High Expression in Neuromasts
The three estrogen receptor genes are highly expressed in zebrafish neuromasts during development.
research The Developmental Basis of Fingerprint Pattern Formation and Variation
Fingerprints form uniquely before birth due to specific genetic pathways and local signals.
research Phospholipid-Polymer Hybrid Nanoparticle-Mediated Transfollicular Delivery of Quercetin: Prospective Implementation for the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Quercetin-loaded nanoparticles can penetrate skin, minimize hair loss, and promote hair regrowth, showing slightly better results than a marketed product.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Investigation of the Cutaneous Penetration Behavior of Dexamethasone Loaded to Nano-Sized Lipid Particles by EPR Spectroscopy, and Confocal Raman and Laser Scanning Microscopy
Nano-sized lipid particles increase dexamethasone's skin penetration and create a reservoir in the skin layers.
research Decision Letter: Type XVII Collagen Coordinates Proliferation In The Interfollicular Epidermis
Type XVII collagen may help prevent skin aging.
research Author Response: Type XVII Collagen Coordinates Proliferation in the Interfollicular Epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and may have anti-aging effects.
research Type XVII Collagen Coordinates Proliferation in the Interfollicular Epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and could be a target for anti-aging treatments.
research Latanoprost-Loaded Nanotransfersomes Designed For Scalp Administration Enhance Keratinocytes Proliferation
Latanoprost-loaded nanotransfersomes could help treat hair loss by promoting hair growth.
research A Case of Folliculitis Decalvans With Concomitant Acne Keloidalis Nuchae, Androgenic Alopecia, and Profound Postinflammatory Hyperpigmentation
A 37-year-old man with hair loss and skin issues was successfully treated with oral antibiotics, highlighting the need for early treatment. Long-term care includes low-dose antibiotics and avoiding caps and wigs.
research Microscopical Characterization of Known Postmortem Root Bands Using Light and Scanning Electron Microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Qualification of a New and Precise Automatic Tool for the Assessment of Hair Diameters in Phototrichograms
The new automatic tool accurately measures hair thickness and is reliable.
research The G60S Connexin43 Mutant Regulates Hair Growth and Hair Fiber Morphology in a Mouse Model of Human Oculodentodigital Dysplasia
The G60S Connexin43 mutation causes hair growth issues and poor hair quality in mice, similar to human ODDD patients.
research The Nude Mutant Gene Foxn1 Is a HOXC13 Regulatory Target During Hair Follicle and Nail Differentiation
HOXC13 is essential for hair and nail development by regulating Foxn1.
