research Circadian clocks: from stem cells to tissue homeostasis and regeneration
Circadian rhythms are crucial for stem cell function and tissue repair, and understanding them may improve aging and regeneration treatments.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research KGF and EGF signalling block hair follicle induction and promote interfollicular epidermal fate in developing mouse skin
EGF and KGF signalling prevent hair follicle formation and promote skin cell development in mice.
research Antagonism of NMDA receptors as a potential treatment for Down syndrome: a pilot randomized controlled trial
Memantine may slightly improve memory in people with Down syndrome, but more research is needed.
research Inherited ichthyoses/generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research Coats' Plus: A Progressive Familial Syndrome of Bilateral Coats' Disease, Characteristic Cerebral Calcification, Leukoencephalopathy, Slow Pre- and Post-Natal Linear Growth and Defects of Bone Marrow and Integument
Coats' Plus is a genetic disorder with eye abnormalities, brain calcification, poor growth, bone and skin issues, and movement disorders.
research What causes hidradenitis suppurativa ?—15 years after
Hidradenitis suppurativa is caused by genetic factors, inflammation, bacteria, hormones, and lifestyle factors like obesity and smoking.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Stem cells in tissues, organoids, and cancers
Stem cells are crucial for tissue growth, cancer treatment, and disease modeling, but challenges remain in clinical use.
research N-terminal functional domain of Gasdermin A3 regulates mitochondrial homeostasis via mitochondrial targeting
Mutations in Gasdermin A3 cause skin inflammation and hair loss by disrupting mitochondria.
research Alopecia: evaluation and treatment
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and FDA-approved treatments for different types of hair loss exist, but treatments for severe cases often fail and future improvements may focus on hair follicle stem cells.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS often have skin problems like excessive hair, acne, hair loss, and dark patches, which can be treated with hormonal and non-hormonal therapies.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research MENSTRUAL DISORDERS IN ADOLESCENTS
The document concludes that early recognition and treatment of PCOS in adolescents is crucial for managing symptoms and long-term health risks.
research Reversing wrinkled skin and hair loss in mice by restoring mitochondrial function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Acne as a chronic systemic disease
Acne is a chronic disease linked to various systemic conditions and has significant psychological and social effects.
research The emerging role of Janus kinase inhibitors in the treatment of autoimmune and inflammatory diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising drugs for treating autoimmune and inflammatory diseases.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Lifestyle intervention and anti-obesity therapies in the polycystic ovary syndrome: impact on metabolism and fertility
Lifestyle changes improve metabolism and fertility in overweight PCOS patients; anti-obesity drugs show potential but need more research.
research Replicative stress, stem cells and aging
Maintaining DNA health in stem cells is key to preventing aging and tissue breakdown.
research Next generation human skin constructs as advanced tools for drug development
Advanced human skin models improve drug development and could replace animal testing.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome and impact on health
PCOS affects women's health by increasing the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and reproductive issues.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research COVID-19 and endocrine and metabolic diseases. An updated statement from the European Society of Endocrinology
People with diabetes or obesity should manage their conditions carefully as they have a higher risk of severe COVID-19.
research Identifying novel strategies for treating human hair loss disorders: Cyclosporine A suppresses the Wnt inhibitor, SFRP1, in the dermal papilla of human scalp hair follicles
Cyclosporine A may help treat hair loss by blocking a protein that inhibits hair growth.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: reflections and hypotheses on aetiology and pathogenesis
FFA's causes may include environmental triggers and genetic factors.
research Advanced nanocarrier- and microneedle-based transdermal drug delivery strategies for skin diseases treatment
Advanced nanocarrier and microneedle drug delivery methods are more effective, safer, and less invasive for treating skin diseases.
