Hair ages and thins due to factors like inflammation and stress, and treatments like antioxidants and hormones might improve hair health.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research IPSC-Based Approach for Human Hair Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
research Male Pattern Hair Loss: Can Developmental Origins Explain the Pattern?
Male pattern hair loss may be linked to the developmental origins of hair follicles.
research Staining of Human Skin With RGB Trichrome Unveils a Proteoglycan-Enriched Zone in the Hair Dermal Sheath
A new staining method shows a special area in the hair's skin layer with lots of proteoglycans.
research Alopecia Areata: Comprehensive Overview and Histological Characteristics
Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune condition causing varying hair loss, diagnosed by specific patterns of inflammation around hair follicles, with several treatment options available.
research Hair and Scalp Dermatoscopy
Dermatoscopy is useful for identifying different hair and scalp conditions and can reduce the need for biopsies.
research The Reliability of Horizontally Sectioned Scalp Biopsies in the Diagnosis of Chronic Diffuse Telogen Hair Loss in Women
Horizontally sectioned scalp biopsies are more reliable for diagnosing hair loss in women when three samples are taken instead of one.
research Hair Changes Caused by Aging
Aging causes hair to gray and thin, with the timing of graying varying by race, and factors like oxidative stress and genetics can lead to hair loss.
research Hair Follicular Cell/Organ Culture in Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
