May 2024 in “BMC veterinary research” In this study, researchers observed that metabolite expression patterns, including sugars, lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides, affect hair follicle growth in cashmere goats, with feeding practices potentially influencing these cycles via hormone and vitamin levels.
In a study on hair loss treatment, researchers found that a serum containing Cinchona succirubra extract and caffeine improved hair density and reduced hair loss in individuals with acute telogen effluvium after 16 weeks of use, with significant improvements observable after just 4 weeks.
November 2022 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that stimulating the olfactory receptor OR2A4/7 with cyclohexyl salicylate promoted human hair growth and increased progeny of hair follicle epithelial stem cells in an ex vivo setting.
May 2021 in “British Small Animal Veterinary Association eBooks” This review discusses various causes and patterns of canine alopecia, noting that symmetrical and diffuse hair loss often indicates an endocrinopathy, and reports no new clinical results.
September 2019 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, mouse sebaceous glands were found to require nerves for growth during active hair cycles, suggesting a nerve-dependent sebaceous gland cycle coordinated with hair growth.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” In this study using a transgenic mouse model, Id2 overexpression in hair follicle stem cells prolonged quiescence by affecting gene expression, partly independent from BMP signaling.
May 2009 in “Hair transplant forum international” This review discusses Dr. Gill Westgate's background in hair growth regulation and industry experience, but reports no new findings or results.
This study measured the force required to pluck anagen and telogen hair from volunteers, suggesting that trichotillometry could assess hair strength in alopecia patients and evaluate treatment efficacy.
January 1992 in “Proceedings of the New Zealand Society of Animal Production” This study observed that key signaling events controlling hair growth in ferret follicles occur between 0 and 4 days after melatonin implantation, highlighting distinct processes in follicular regeneration and fibre growth.
July 1987 in “Reactions (Auckland)” Oral minoxidil may slow male pattern baldness and cause body hair growth, but hair loss can happen after stopping it.
This article reviews pathologic mechanisms causing hair changes in women on hormonal contraceptives or pregnant and reports no new study results; hormonal effects on the hair cycle stages are suggested.
April 2023 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that blocking apoptosis during the catagen phase in mice disrupts hair follicle stem cell niche architecture, delaying subsequent hair regeneration cycles.
January 2022 in “Przegla̧d dermatologiczny” This article reviews the use of minoxidil for alopecia treatment and finds that low-dose oral or topical forms can be effective with manageable side effects, although some patients may still experience them.

March 2006 in “Seminars in Cutaneous Medicine and Surgery” This article discusses the hair follicle's regenerative cycles and the molecular mechanisms influencing them, emphasizing the need for therapeutic targeting of the "hair cycle clock" to manage hair growth disorders, without reporting new research findings.
210 citations
,
July 1993 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This review discusses the role of intrinsic skin signals, rather than serum signals, in regulating melanin synthesis and hair pigmentation, but reports no new experimental data.
