Hair root sheaths are more common in non-scarring hair loss and help diagnose the type of hair loss.
research The Failure Behavior of the Anchorage of Hairs During Slow Extraction
Growing hairs are easier to pull out than resting hairs due to different anchorage strengths.
research Regulation of Hair Shedding by the Type 3 IP3 Receptor
The type 3 IP3 receptor is important for controlling hair loss and growth.
research Alopecia Areata Incognita
Alopecia areata incognita causes sudden hair thinning, responds well to steroids, and is more common in those with genetic hair loss conditions.
