research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Simple and rapid method to isolate and culture follicular papillae from human scalp hair follicles
Researchers developed a quick and easy way to get and grow cells from the base of human hair follicles.
research Spironolactone is an Effective and Well Tolerated Systemic Antiandrogen Therapy for Hirsute Women*
Spironolactone effectively reduces hair growth in women with hirsutism and is generally well-tolerated.
research Induction of dark keratinocytes by 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate and mezerein as an indicator of tumor-promoting efficiency
TPA is about 50 times more effective at promoting tumors than MZ.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Inductive Properties of Hair Follicle Cells
Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Cystoid macular oedema in uveitis: An unsolved problem
Treating cystoid macular oedema in uveitis is difficult and risky.
research Oral Retinoids in Dermatology
Oral retinoids are effective for severe skin conditions but require careful use due to side effects.
research Cannabinoids: Current and Future Options to Treat Chronic and Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain
Cannabinoids may help treat chronic and chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research Hair follicle and interfollicular epidermal stem cells make varying contributions to wound regeneration
Different skin stem cells help heal wounds, with hair follicle cells becoming more important over time.
research Effects of maintaining solstice light and temperature on reproductive activity, coat growth, plasma prolactin and melatonin in goats
Goat reproductive activity and coat growth are affected by light and temperature, with temperature altering prolactin levels and hair growth, but not melatonin or estrus onset.
research Melatonin promotes secondary hair follicle development of early postnatal cashmere goat and improves cashmere quantity and quality by enhancing antioxidant capacity and suppressing apoptosis
Melatonin improves cashmere goat hair growth and quality by increasing antioxidants and reducing cell death.
research Principles and mechanisms of regeneration in the mouse model for wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Localization of Minoxidil Sulfotransferase in Rat Liver and the Outer Root Sheath of Anagen Pelage and Vibrissa Follicles
Minoxidil works in liver and outer hair root sheath for hair growth.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research A Practical Guide to Scalp Disorders
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of common scalp disorders are important for both physical and psychological health.
research Cysteine Prevents the Reduction in Keratin Synthesis Induced by Iron Deficiency in Human Keratinocytes
Cysteine helps maintain keratin production in skin cells even when iron is low.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research The regeneration blastema of lizards: an amniote model for the study of appendage replacement
Lizards can regrow their tails, and studying this process helps understand scar-free healing and limb regeneration.
research Knock-Down of Arabidopsis PLC5 Reduces Primary Root Growth and Secondary Root Formation While Overexpression Improves Drought Tolerance and Causes Stunted Root Hair Growth
Changing the amount of PLC5 in Arabidopsis affects root growth and drought resistance, with less PLC5 slowing root growth and more PLC5 improving drought tolerance but hindering root hair growth.
research Adrenal Disorders and the Paediatric Brain: Pathophysiological Considerations and Clinical Implications
Adrenal disorders can cause lasting brain and behavior issues in children.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Effects of 17-β-Estradiol and ICI 182 780 on Hair Growth in Various Strains of Mice
17-β-Estradiol applied to the skin stops hair growth, while ICI 182 780 helps hair grow in mice.
research Serum Androgens and Genetic Linkage Analysis in Early Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
