research The disintegrin/metalloproteinase Adam10 is essential for epidermal integrity and Notch-mediated signaling
Adam10 enzyme is crucial for healthy skin and proper Notch signaling.
research GABRA2 Alleles Moderate the Subjective Effects of Alcohol, Which are Attenuated by Finasteride
GABRA2 gene variations impact alcohol response, and hair loss medication finasteride reduces some effects.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Regulatory T Cells: the Many Faces of Foxp3
Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Today: Novel Targets for Neuroactive Steroid Synthesis and Action and Their Relevance for Translational Research
New targets for making and using brain-synthesized steroids could lead to better treatments for brain disorders and alcoholism.
research Cell death in the skin
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Sex differences in SARS-CoV-2 infection rates and the potential link to prostate cancer
Men, especially older ones with health issues like prostate cancer, may have worse COVID-19 outcomes and could benefit from therapies targeting male hormones.
research Systematic review of the use of platelet-rich plasma in aesthetic dermatology
Platelet-rich plasma may help with hair growth and skin quality but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness.
research Regulatory T cells in skin
Skin's Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining skin health and could be targeted to treat immune-related skin diseases and cancer.
research From skin microrelief to wrinkles. An area ripe for investigation
Wrinkles form due to structural skin changes and vary in type and treatment response.
research The Rationale for Inhibiting 5α-Reductase Isoenzymes in the Prevention and Treatment of Prostate Cancer
Inhibiting 5α-reductase can help reduce prostate cancer risk and improve treatment.
research FGF Family: From Drug Development to Clinical Application
FGF signaling is a promising target for developing treatments for wounds, metabolic diseases, and cancer.
research Molecular epidemiology of hypospadias: Review of genetic and environmental risk factors
Both genes and environmental factors like chemicals may contribute to the increase in hypospadias, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men treated best with early medication or transplant, new treatments researched.
research Generation of folliculogenic human epithelial stem cells from induced pluripotent stem cells
Scientists created stem cells that can grow hair and skin.
research Finasteride induced depression: a prospective study
Finasteride may cause slight depression and anxiety.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research A randomized, active- and placebo-controlled study of the efficacy and safety of different doses of dutasteride versus placebo and finasteride in the treatment of male subjects with androgenetic alopecia
Dutasteride 0.5 mg works better than finasteride and placebo for increasing hair in men with hair loss.
research Effects of EGF on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research Identification of drug-specific public TCR driving severe cutaneous adverse reactions
Researchers found a specific immune receptor in patients that causes severe skin reactions to a drug.
research Role of cholesterol sulfate in epidermal structure and function: Lessons from X-linked ichthyosis
Cholesterol sulfate buildup due to a genetic mutation disrupts the skin barrier, leading to the scaling skin seen in X-linked ichthyosis.
research Immune-related alopecia (areata and universalis) in cancer patients receiving immune checkpoint inhibitors
Cancer patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors may develop alopecia, but some hair regrowth is possible with treatment.
research Anti-ageing effect of a lactococcal strain: analysis using senescence-accelerated mice
Lactococcus lactis strain H61 may reduce some ageing symptoms.
research Minoxidil-Induced Hair Growth is Mediated by Adenosine in Cultured Dermal Papilla Cells: Possible Involvement of Sulfonylurea Receptor 2B as a Target of Minoxidil
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by targeting adenosine and possibly sulfonylurea receptor 2B.
research Regulation of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism by Tumor Suppressor FLCN
The tumor suppressor gene FLCN affects mitochondrial function and energy use in cells.
research Quality of Life, Burden of Disease, Co-morbidities, and Systemic Effects in Vitiligo Patients
