Function of connective tissue papilla?
Connective tissue papilla is a vascular process or form of connective tissue extending into and nourishing the root of a hair, feather, or developing tooth. Many skin papilla extend from the dermal layer into the epidermal layer.
What are the structural and cellular features of a hair follicle?
The structural and cellular features of a hair follicle include the papilla, root sheath, matrix, bulge, and hair fiber. The arrector pili is another hair structure that is a very small muscle fiber attached to the follicle.
What is the function of hair papillae?
The hair papilla is an intrusion of the underlying dermis into the hair bulb. It holds a knot of capillaries that provides nutrients to the growing hair follicle.
What are the key features and functions of a hair follicle cross section?
A hair follicle cross section consists of several key features and functions. These include the hair shaft, sebaceous gland, arrector pili muscle, hair bulb, and dermal papilla. The hair shaft is the visible part of the hair, while the sebaceous gland produces oil to keep the hair and skin moisturized. The arrector pili muscle is responsible for causing hair to stand up when we are cold or scared. The hair bulb is where hair growth occurs, and the dermal papilla supplies nutrients to the hair follicle.
Hairs are produced within organ called?
Hairs are produced within an organ called the hair follicle, which is located in the dermis layer of the skin. Each hair follicle contains the necessary structures for hair growth, such as the root, bulb, and papilla.

Can drugs stop hair growth?
Medications for hair loss treatment prevent the conversion of testosterone to dihydrotestosterone (DHT) in the body.Dihydrotestosterone is a sex steroid and androgen hormone that plays a major role in hair loss. Male pattern baldness is caused by the hair follicle's sensitivity to DHT. The follicles shrink, resulting in a shorter lifespan and the abnormal production of hair. The most important part of the hair follicle is the dermal papilla which is responsible for the growth of hair. The dermal papilla cells divide and differentiate to form new hair follicles. The papilla is in direct contact with the skin's blood capillaries, from which it gets its essential nutrients for proper hair follicle growth. The dermal papilla has a large number of androgen receptors (more in males than females). When DHT gets to the dermal papilla, it undermines the absorption of vital nutrients required for healthy hair follicles. Hair follicles have resting and growing phases - without proper nutrition, their resting stages get longer while their growing phases get shorter.
