This study found that follicular unit-like wigs made from xenogeneic human hair and medical polypropylene exhibited good histocompatibility, a low loss rate, and satisfactory appearance one year after transplantation in rabbits.

Hair care practices like using relaxers and tight braiding can lead to permanent hair loss in black women.

This review discusses the incidence, demographics, and associated conditions of alopecia areata and provides no new clinical findings.

This letter highlights the challenge of implementing ethical principles in healthcare due to society's dependence on financial systems, suggesting this may hinder public health and environmental well-being.

This commentary discusses challenges in maintaining proper blinding in placebo-controlled trials, illustrated by a study where zinc and placebo lozenges were nearly indistinguishable in taste by participants.

Some drugs can cause hair loss or growth, but hair usually returns to normal after stopping the drug.

Hair loss in children can be caused by fungal infections, trauma, autoimmune disorders, or stress, and treatments vary depending on the cause.

Taking calcium may help elderly with osteoporosis, birth control with levonorgestrel doesn't increase heart attack risk, Salmonella can cause arthritis, a national ethics committee is recommended, and sulfasalazine might help with a hair loss condition.

This article revisits the genetics of pattern baldness but reports no new clinical findings.

This entry is a placeholder containing only website navigation details and reports no research findings.

This study reports that emotional distress may cause alopecia areata and that treatments like fluorinated corticosteroid cream and triamcinolone acetonide injections have varying success, with hair regrowth being less frequent in children.

Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans causes skin scarring and might be treated with a new synthetic retinoid.

This study found that serum GPER-1 levels were significantly higher in patients with androgenetic alopecia compared to healthy controls, suggesting a potential role in the condition's pathogenesis, independent of gender.

This study found that younger, unmarried individuals under 40, especially women, experienced significant anxiety and depression due to androgenetic alopecia, impacting their psychological well-being and self-perception.

This thesis reviews the psychological and social challenges faced by men and women with androgenetic alopecia who seek treatment, but reports no new results.

This study found that zebrafish and sticklebacks, despite differences in their tooth regeneration structures, share a similar genetic program during tooth regeneration, suggesting a conserved "successional dental epithelium" in vertebrates.

This study found that a mutation in the BMP12/GDF7 gene is associated with the Naked neck trait in chickens, reducing neck feathering due to altered signaling pathways.

This study found that transplanting genetically modified dermal fibroblasts into full-thickness skin defects in rats led to the formation of hair follicles with mature pilosebaceous systems by 16 weeks.

This study revealed that Patched receptors establish a Hedgehog signaling gradient in developing hair follicles, which may influence their formation and potentially offer a diagnostic tool for distinguishing Hedgehog-driven tumors.

This study examined the unique structural features of sinus hair follicles in the shrew Sorex unguiculatus, which suggest a specialization for vibration sensing.

This study analyzed proteomic changes in Jiangnan cashmere goats' secondary hair follicles and found that the PLIN2 gene significantly impacts hair follicle growth cycles by affecting dermal papilla cell proliferation, offering insights into breeding strategies to enhance cashmere yield.

The authors suggest that tooth, dermal scale, epidermal scale, feather, and hair evolved in parallel from a shared placode/dermal cell unit in an early vertebrate gnathostome with odontodes, around 420 million years ago.

This study found that hair-type tissues in hedgehogs show higher enrichment of immune-related genes compared to spine-type tissues, suggesting that spines evolved to protect against injuries and infections.

This study examined the microscopic characteristics of hair or feather in five animal drug components of the Shenrongbian pill, identifying distinctive medulla cell shapes and hair cuticle patterns for each component.

This review summarizes current research on molecular pathways, such as Wnt and Notch, that regulate feather follicle development in yellow-feathered broilers, highlighting their potential impact on poultry carcass quality and suggesting areas for future study.

This study found that over-expressing Spry4 and Fgf10 modulates feather stem cells to alter feather morphologies in distinct ways, affecting barb branch formation and tissue structure.

This study found that a transcription factor called FoxA is specifically required for the regeneration of the planarian pharynx, suggesting its critical role in organ-specific regeneration.

This chapter provides an overview of essential instruments and supplies used in hair restoration surgeries, without reporting new clinical findings.

The authors concluded that Wnt ligands produced by hair-inducing dermal papilla cells have crucial roles in coordinating postnatal hair growth by interacting with both epithelial and mesenchymal compartments.
