research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2019
The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.
research Contrasting Localization of c-Myc with Other Myc Superfamily Transcription Factors in the Human Hair Follicle and During the Hair Growth Cycle
Different Myc family proteins are located in various parts of the hair follicle and may affect stem cell behavior.
research Expression of CD117 and Platelet-Derived Growth Factor Receptor α in Patients with Alopecia Areata
CD117 and platelet-derived growth factor receptor α may play a role in alopecia areata.
research Both Low Circulating Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 and High-Density Lipoprotein Cholesterol Are Associated with Hair Loss in Middle-Aged Women
Low IGF-1 and high HDL cholesterol levels are linked to more hair loss in middle-aged women.
research Androgens Trigger Different Growth Responses in Genetically Identical Human Hair Follicles in Organ Culture Reflecting Their Epigenetic Diversity in Life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research Maintenance of Optimized Hair Growth from Viable Terminal Scalp Hair Follicles at Baseline with Oral Finasteride in Male Pattern Hair Loss and First Evidence of a Drug Dependency and a Post-Finasteride Rebound Effect
Finasteride helps hair growth but stopping it causes faster hair loss.
research Human Hair Follicles Contain Two Forms of ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels, Only One Sensitive to Minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Promotion of Anagen, Increased Hair Density, and Reduction of Hair Fall in a Clinical Setting Following Identification of FGF5-Inhibiting Compounds via a Novel 2-Stage Process
New compounds were found to help increase hair growth and decrease hair loss.
research A Comparison of the Culture and Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells from Hair Follicles from Non-Balding and Balding (Androgenetic Alopecia) Scalp
Balding hair follicle cells are smaller, grow less well, and need more effort to culture than non-balding cells.
research Albendazole-Induced Anagen Effluvium: A Brief Literature Review and Our Own Experience
The drug Albendazole, used for treating parasites, can cause sudden hair loss.
research Chronic Telogen Effluvium Is Due to a Reduction in the Variance of Anagen Duration
Chronic hair shedding may be caused by less variation in hair growth times and might stop on its own after several years.
research Apoptosis in Follicles of Individuals with Female Pattern Hair Loss Is Associated with Perifollicular Microinflammation
Hair loss in women links to inflammation around hair follicles.
research Occipital Involvement in Female Pattern Hair Loss: Histopathological Evidence
Occipital scalp affects female hair loss; terminal/vellus ratio helps diagnose androgenetic alopecia.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Androgenetic Alopecia
AGA causes hair loss by shrinking hair follicles due to DHT binding, and can be treated with finasteride and minoxidil.
research Androgenetic, Diffuse, and Senescent Alopecia in Men: Practical Evaluation and Management
The conclusion is that treatments like finasteride and minoxidil can prevent baldness progression and improve hair density, but more research is needed on other therapies.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Mini-Organ
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Human Hair Follicle Regeneration Following Amputation and Grafting into the Nude Mouse
Human hair follicles can regenerate after removal, but with low success rate.
research Cutaneous Side Effects of Chemotherapy and Radiotherapy
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy can cause skin side effects like rashes, hair loss, and nail changes, which are usually managed with conservative treatments.
research The Potential of Androgenic Alopecia Management from Plant Derivatives
Plant extracts like Avicennia marina, Boehmeria nipononivea, and Camellia sinensis could potentially treat hair loss with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.
research Understanding the Functional Contribution of Dermal Stem Cells to Hair Follicle Regeneration and Skin Wound Healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Stem Cell Apoptosis in HIV-1 Alopecia
HIV-1 may cause increased stem cell death in hair follicles, leading to hair loss.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Telogen Effluvium, Diagnosis and Management: A Narrative Review
Hair loss from Telogen Effluvium can be managed by treating the underlying cause and may improve with treatments like minoxidil.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
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.
research Alopecia Areata: An Update
The document concludes that alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease without a definitive cure, but treatments like corticosteroids are commonly used.
