research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Hormesis and medicine
Low doses of some substances can be beneficial, while high doses can be harmful or toxic.
research Targeting the Janus Kinase Family in Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising treatments for autoimmune skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research S1-Leitlinie Long-/Post-COVID
The guideline offers current advice for diagnosing and treating Long- and Post-COVID symptoms.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration Using Grafted Rodent and Human Cells
Grafted rodent and human cells can regenerate hair follicles, but efficiency decreases with age.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Delivery and targeting of nanoparticles into hair follicles
Nanoparticles can improve skin treatments by better targeting hair follicles, but more research is needed for advancement.
research Targeting Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway for Developing Therapies for Hair Loss
Activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Regulation of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism by Tumor Suppressor FLCN
The tumor suppressor gene FLCN affects mitochondrial function and energy use in cells.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research White Lupin Cluster Root Acclimation to Phosphorus Deficiency and Root Hair Development Involve Unique Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases
White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
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.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Neuronal plasticity of the “brain–skin connection”: stress-triggered up-regulation of neuropeptides in dorsal root ganglia and skin via nerve growth factor-dependent pathways
Stress increases certain chemicals in the skin and nerves, which might worsen skin conditions.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates Postnatal Hair Follicle Differentiation and Cycling
Blocking BMP signaling causes hair loss and disrupts hair growth cycles.
research Topical Application of a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Reduces Skin and Hair Pigmentation
Applying a specific inhibitor lightens skin and hair color.
research Unmet Medical Needs in Chronic, Non-communicable Inflammatory Skin Diseases
There are still challenges in diagnosing and treating chronic skin diseases, but there is hope for future improvements.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Human Immunodeficiency Virus Infection
HIV can cause unusual and severe skin problems that are hard to treat.
research Effect of constant-release melatonin implants and prolonged exposure to a long day photoperiod on prolactin secretion and hair growth in mouflon (Ovis gmelini musimon)
Melatonin implants and long daylight hours alter the timing of hormone release and hair growth in mouflon sheep.
research Valproic acid promotes human hair growth in in vitro culture model
Valproic acid may help hair grow and could be a safe treatment for hair loss.
research Sulphation catalysed by the human cytosolic sulphotransferases - chemical defence or molecular terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.
research The Pharmacology of Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative pharmacology, which combines drugs with regenerative medicine, shows promise for repairing damaged body parts and needs more interdisciplinary research.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research The activin binding proteins follistatin and follistatin-related protein are differentially regulated in vitro and during cutaneous wound repair
FLRG and follistatin have different roles in wound healing.
