Fullerene nanomaterials potentiate hair growth [PDF]
Hair loss is a common symptom resulting from a wide range of disease processes and can lead to stress in affected individuals. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of fullerene nanomaterials on hair growth. We used shaved mice as well as SKH-1 "bald" mice to determine if fullerene-based compounds could affect hair growth and hair ...

Root hairs are single cells specialized in the absorption of water and nutrients from the soil. Growing root hairs require intensive cell-wall changes to accommodate cell expansion at the apical end by a process known as tip or polarized growth. We have recently shown that cell wall glycoproteins such as extensions (EXTs) are essential components of ...

Clinical Evaluation of Intradermal Platelet Rich Plasma Administration along with Oral Biotin Supplement for the Management of Androgenetic Alopecia in Adult Males: A Randomised Clinical Trial [PDF]
Introduction: Androgenetic Alopecia (AA) is characterised by progressive-patterned hair loss from the scalp affecting males and females alike. Miniaturisation of the hair follicle with associated hereditary tendency is one of the major primary causal ...

SNARE VTI13 plays a unique role in endosomal trafficking pathways associated with the vacuole and is essential for cell wall organization and root hair growth in arabidopsis [PDF]
Background and Aims: Root hairs are responsible for water and nutrient uptake from the soil and their growth is responsive to biotic and abiotic changes in their environment.

Efek Hair Tonic Buah Mengkudu (Morinda Citrifolia L) Dan Uji Fitokimianya [PDF]
The aim of this study is to prove whether ethanolic extract of Morinda can increase rabbit hair growth. The secondary metabolites of Morinda which stimulate rabbit hair growth are probably alkaloid, saponin and flavonoid.

Epidermal growth factor as a biologic switch in hair growth cycle [PDF]
The hair growth cycle consists of three stages known as the anagen (growing), catagen (involution), and telogen (resting) phases. This cyclical growth of hair is regulated by a diversity of growth factors.

Transient activaton of β-catenin signalling in adult mouse epidermis is sufficient to induce new hair follicles but continuous activation is required to maintain hair follicle tumours [PDF]
When β-catenin signalling is disturbed from mid-gestation onwards lineage commitment is profoundly altered in postnatal mouse epidermis. We have investigated whether adult epidermis has the capacity for β-catenin-induced lineage conversion without prior ...

Keratin-mediated hair growth and its underlying biological mechanism
Injecting human hair-derived keratin into mice skin accelerates hair growth & formation, as TGFβ2 secretion during hair destruction stimulates epithelial cell death and keratin release, leading to dermal cell condensation & hair growth.
