Oestrogens are key for bone growth during puberty in both boys and girls.
research Androgen Induction of Follicular Epithelial Cell Growth Is Mediated via Insulin-like Growth Factor-I from Dermal Papilla Cells
Male hormones promote hair cell growth by using a growth factor from nearby skin cells.
research Extracellular matrix sensing by FERONIA and Leucine‐Rich Repeat Extensins controls vacuolar expansion during cellular elongation in Arabidopsis thaliana
FERONIA and LRX proteins help control cell growth in plants by regulating vacuole expansion.
research Diverse mechanisms for endogenous regeneration and repair in mammalian organs
Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.
research Impact of Stat3 activation upon skin biology: A dichotomy of its role between homeostasis and diseases
Stat3 helps skin heal but can also cause skin diseases if overactive.
research Demodicosis and rosacea: Epidemiology and significance in daily dermatologic practice
Demodicosis is common and often missed, needing more recognition and treatment in skin care.
research Elliptical Donor Stereoscopically Assisted Micrografting as an Approach to Further Refinement in Hair Transplantation

research Cutaneous complications of chemotherapeutic agents
Chemotherapy can cause skin problems like hair loss, mouth sores, and skin darkening, and recognizing these can affect treatment decisions.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research GLI2 Is Expressed in Normal Human Epidermis and BCC and Induces GLI1 Expression by Binding to its Promoter
GLI2 activates GLI1, promoting skin tumor growth and hair development.
research Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Current Status of Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.
