The hairless gene mutation causes baldness by disrupting hair follicle structure.
research Epithelial-to-Mesenchymal Stem Cell Transition in a Human Organ: Lessons from Lichen Planopilaris
PPAR-γ agonists like pioglitazone may help manage lichen planopilaris but don't fully reverse scarring.
research 4‐octyl itaconate alleviates cisplatin‐induced ferroptosis possibly via activating the NRF2 /HO ‐1 signalling pathway
4-octyl itaconate may prevent hearing loss caused by the drug cisplatin by activating certain cell protection pathways.
research Phenyl Propanoid 1’s-1′-Acetoxychavicol Acetate Protects Against Testosterone-Induced Alopecia by Inhibiting Nadph Oxidase
ACA from Alpinia galanga may prevent testosterone-related hair loss.
research The Autoimmune Regulator (AIRE), Which Is Defective in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy Patients, Is Expressed in Human Epidermal and Follicular Keratinocytes and Associates With the Intermediate Filament Protein Cytokeratin 17
AIRE protein, defective in APECED patients, is found in skin and hair cells and interacts with cytokeratin 17.
research Production of a 135-residue long N-truncated human keratinocyte growth factor 1 in Escherichia coli
A stable, active version of a growth factor was made in bacteria, showing promise for medical use.
research 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D resistance, rickets, and alopecia
A genetic defect in vitamin D receptors causes severe rickets and hair loss in children, but some heal as they age.
research Penetration Profile of Microspheres in Follicular Targeting of Terminal Hair Follicles
Microspheres about 1.5 micrometers in size can best penetrate hair follicles, potentially reaching important stem cells.
