Gender-affirming hormone therapy changes hair growth in transgender people, with feminizing therapy reducing hair and masculinizing therapy increasing it, but sometimes additional treatment is needed.

The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.

Environmental and cosmetic factors, including heat, chemicals, and sun exposure, can cause hair loss and damage.

Etretinate therapy can cause hair loss by disrupting the hair growth cycle.

Blocking a specific immune cell signal can trigger hair growth.

Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.

The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.

Wnt signaling is crucial for pigmented hair regeneration by controlling stem cell activation and differentiation.

Neural stem cell extract can safely promote hair growth in mice.

The dog likely has a condition similar to Canine alopecia X.

Skin reactions are a common reason for emergency visits due to drug allergies, with some severe cases needing intensive care.

PRC1 is essential for proper skin development and stem cell formation by controlling gene activity.

BMP signaling is important for skin color, affecting melanin production, pigment spread, and cell movement.

The research found that a specific skin cell type not only triggers hair growth but also controls hair color, and that aging can lead to hair loss and color changes.

Researchers found that the Leptin receptor is a consistent marker for hair follicle dermal cells, which may help future hair research.

Fgf20 is important for the development and regulation of the cells that form the base of hair follicles.

Blocking DPP4 can potentially speed up hair growth and regeneration, especially after injury or in cases of hair loss.

Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.

Manipulating the catagen and telogen phases of hair growth could lead to treatments for hair disorders.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.

Gata6 is important for protecting hair growth cells from DNA damage and keeping normal hair growth.

The document concludes that new methods improve the accuracy of diagnosing scalp alopecia and challenges the old way of classifying it.

Wnt ligands are crucial for hair growth and repair.

Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.

Basonuclin 2 is vital for the development of facial bones, hair follicles, and male germ cells in adult mice, and its absence can lead to dwarfism and abnormal follicles.

Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.

The document concludes that different types of hair loss have specific treatments, and early diagnosis is crucial for preventing permanent hair loss.

Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.

Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.

Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
