330-360 / 1000+ results research Insights into male androgenetic alopecia using comparative transcriptome profiling: hypoxia-inducible factor-1 and Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathways
Targeting specific genes in certain pathways may help treat male pattern baldness.
research Lrig1-expressing epidermal progenitors require SCD1 to maintain the dermal papilla niche
Hair growth-related cells need the enzyme SCD1 to help maintain the area that supports hair growth.
research Mouse models with a disrupted PTHrP gene or a disrupted PTH gene (PTH−/− mice)
PTHrP is important for bone formation and may be targeted for osteoporosis treatment and longevity therapies.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research Hair follicle culture—a historical perspective
Advancements in hair follicle culture have led to better understanding and potential treatments for hair loss.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: pathogenesis and management
Hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin disease, can be managed with antibiotics, lifestyle changes, and in severe cases, surgery. Early diagnosis and careful planning are key, and laser treatment can be an efficient solution for mild to severe cases.
research Hair anatomy for the clinician
Understanding hair follicle anatomy helps diagnose hair disorders.
research The Skin in Pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause normal skin changes that usually go away after childbirth and don't need treatment.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Physiology and Medical Treatments for Alopecia
Minoxidil, finasteride, and low-level laser light therapy are effective FDA-approved treatments for hair loss.
research AN UPDATED OVERVIEW OF POLYCYSTIC OVARY SYNDROME
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a hormonal disorder in women that can cause infertility and other health issues, and it may be improved by treatments that increase insulin sensitivity.
research Physiological changes in the skin during pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin pigmentation, stretch marks, and changes in hair, nails, and sweat glands, with most resolving after birth.
research HNG, A Humanin Analogue, Promotes Hair Growth by Inhibiting Anagen-to-Catagen Transition
HNG helps hair grow by keeping hair in the growth phase longer.
research Hair Cuts Cause Cancer
Haircuts and medical growth factors do not cause cancer.
research Prospects of integrated multi-omics-driven biomarkers for efficient hair loss therapy from systems biology perspective
New hair loss treatments could be improved by using combined biological markers.
research The TFIID subunit TAF4 regulates keratinocyte proliferation and has cell-autonomous and non-cell-autonomous tumour suppressor activity in mouse epidermis
TAF4 is important for skin cell growth and helps prevent skin cancer in mice.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research Hedgehog signaling reprograms hair follicle niche fibroblasts to a hyper-activated state
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research Hair Loss: Pathogenesis and Prevention: A Literature Review
Hair loss is caused by genetics, hormones, stress, and environment, and can be managed with good nutrition, stress control, and treatments.
research Wnt/β-catenin signalling: function, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is important for body functions and diseases, and targeting it may treat conditions like cancer, but with safety challenges.
research Hopes and Limits of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells (ADSCs) and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) in Wound Healing
ADSCs help in wound healing and skin regeneration but need more research for full understanding.
