research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Macrophages Regulate Schwann Cell Maturation after Nerve Injury
Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.
research Hypersensitivity reactions to anticoagulant drugs: diagnosis and management options
Allergic reactions to blood thinners are rare but can be serious, requiring careful testing and alternative treatments.
research Vestibular Hair Cell Regeneration and Restoration of Balance Function Induced by Math1 Gene Transfer
Gene therapy with the Math1 gene helped regenerate balance-related cells and improve balance in mice.
research Recognition and management of Staphylococcus aureus toxin‐mediated disease
Early detection and intensive treatment of diseases caused by Staphylococcus aureus toxins are crucial for reducing severe health effects.
research Probiotic Bacteria Induce a ‘Glow of Health’
Probiotic bacteria improved skin and hair health in aged mice.
research Hair growth inhibition by psychoemotional stress: a mouse model for neural mechanisms in hair growth control
Stress can stop hair growth in mice, and treatments can reverse this effect.
research Oxidative stress in ageing of hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Indications for a brain‐hair follicle axis: inhibition of keratinocyte proliferation and up‐regulation of keratinocyte apoptosis in telogen hair follicles by stress and substance P
Stress can cause hair loss by negatively affecting hair follicles and this effect might be reversed with specific treatments.
research Finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats baldness but may cause sexual side effects.
research From causes of aging to death from COVID-19
Older age and related diseases increase COVID-19 risk, but anti-aging treatments might help.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Cell death in the skin
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research HAIR REGROWTH
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.
research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Microenvironmental reprogramming of thymic epithelial cells to skin multipotent stem cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and polycystic ovary syndrome
People with PCOS, especially if obese, often have NAFLD, linked to obesity, insulin resistance, and high androgen levels.
research Drug-Induced Skin, Nail and Hair Disorders
Some drugs can cause skin, nail, and hair problems, which are important for healthcare professionals to recognize and report.
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 Deep Insight of Design, Mechanism, and Cancer Theranostic Strategy of Nanozymes
Nanozymes show promise for effective and safe cancer treatment.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update of Treatment Options
Minoxidil is the only FDA-approved topical drug for treating male or female pattern hair loss, and other medications like finasteride and dutasteride can also increase hair growth.
research Urinary Retention in Patients with BPH Treated with Finasteride or Placebo over 4 Years
Finasteride lowers risk of urinary issues and surgery by over 50% in 4 years.
research Skin biopsy
Correct skin biopsy techniques are crucial to avoid misdiagnosis of skin diseases.
research Therapeutic anti-inflammatory potential of formyl-peptide receptor agonists
Formyl-peptide receptor agonists could be new anti-inflammatory drugs.
research In vivo immunological toxicity in mice of carbon nanotubes with impurities
Pure carbon nanotubes are safe for mice, but impure ones cause immune issues and hair loss.
research Selenoproteins Are Essential for Proper Keratinocyte Function and Skin Development
Selenoproteins are crucial for healthy skin and hair.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
