Apoptosis in the Hair Follicle [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2006 Apoptosis plays an important role in many physiological processes, ranging from morphogenetic events to adult tissue homeostasis, and defects in its regulation contribute to many disorders. Here we review molecular mechanisms of apoptosis in the hair follicle (HF), whose cyclical growth pattern is repeatedly interrupted by apoptosis-driven involution ...

Toxicologic Pathology, 2016 The hair follicle (HF) has a wide range of functions including thermoregulation, physical and immunological protection against external insults, sensory perception, social interactions, and camouflage. One of the most characteristic features of HFs is that they self-renew during hair cycle (HC) throughout the entire life of an individual to ...

Immunology of the hair follicle
TURKDERM, 2014 Hair follicles are accepted as a component of skin in mammals. Considering the continuous contact with environment and microorganisms in the normal flora, it is crucial that various elements of immune system are necessary to reside within hair follicles.

Advances in Understanding Hair Growth [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
F1000Research, 2016 In this short review, I introduce an integrated vision of human hair follicle behavior and describe opposing influences that control hair follicle homeostasis, from morphogenesis to hair cycling.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Alopecia areata (AA) is a chronic, multifactorial, polygenic, and heterogeneous disorder affecting growing hair follicles in susceptible individuals, which results in a non-scarring and reversible hair loss with a highly unpredictable course.

The hair follicle enigma [PDF]
Experimental Dermatology, 2017 AbstractThe hair follicle is a mini‐organ endowed with a unique structure and cyclic behaviour. Despite the intense research efforts which have been devoted at deciphering the hair follicle biology over the past 70 years, one must admit that hair follicle remains an enigma.

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2022 The hair follicle is a complex skin accessory organ, which determines hair growth. Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) have been proven to play an important role in hair follicle development, but their specific mechanism is still unclear.
