research Dissecting Fibroblast Heterogeneity in Health and Fibrotic Disease
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in both healthy and diseased tissues, and understanding them better could improve treatments for fibrotic diseases.
research Genetic Susceptibility to Alopecia
Certain mutations in the PADI3 gene may increase the risk of developing a type of scarring hair loss common in women of African descent.
research Forensic Identification of Suspected Poached Wild Boar (Sus scrofa affinis)
The animal was likely a wild boar.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co- option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.
research Genome-wide detection and sequence conservation analysis of long non-coding RNA during hair follicle cycle of yak
Researchers found that certain RNA sequences play a role in yak hair growth and these sequences are somewhat similar to those in cashmere goats.
research Editors' Picks
Collagen VII helps skin heal and stay strong, sirolimus may lower skin cancer risk in kidney transplant patients, high-molecular-mass hyaluronan helps naked mole rats resist cancer, dermal γδ T cells aid in hair growth in rodents, and overexpression of IL-33 in mouse skin causes itchiness, offering a model for studying allergic inflammation treatments.
research 열전 냉각 기술을 이용한 의료용 온도 제어 냉각 장치 개발
A new cooling device keeps a constant temperature for medical procedures, improving results.
research Use of silicon for skin and hair care: an approach of chemical forms available and efficacy
Silicon can improve skin and hair health, but more research is needed.
research Stimulation of elastin expression by minoxidil in chick skin fibroblasts
Minoxidil boosts elastin production, potentially helping skin diseases.
research Hair regrowth in male and female pattern hair loss does not involve the conversion of vellus hair to terminal hair
Hair regrowth doesn't convert thin hairs to thick hairs, but increases overall hair density.
research The Organizer and Beyond
Cells from certain embryo parts can induce head formation in another embryo, involving complex signaling pathways.
research A preliminary study of markers for human hair follicle melanin stem cell
Researchers identified potential markers for human hair color stem cells.
research A Case of Cutaneous Focal Mucinosis With Follicular Induction
A man with a skin nodule was diagnosed with a rare skin condition called cutaneous focal mucinosis, which can be confused with other skin cancers.
research Finasteride as a therapy for hidradenitis suppurativa
Finasteride improves hidradenitis suppurativa but not for child-bearing women.
research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research Arabinogalactan proteins are involved in root hair development in barley
Certain proteins are essential for the growth of root hairs in barley.
research Wound healing in development
Wounds heal without scarring in early development but later result in scars, and studying Wnt signaling could help control scarring.
research Combination of media, biomaterials and extracellular matrix proteins to enhance the differentiation of neural stem/precursor cells into neurons
Using certain small proteins with a growth factor and specific materials can increase the creation of neurons from stem cells.
research Nuclear Factor I-C promotes proliferation and differentiation of apical papilla-derived human stem cells in vitro
NFIC helps human dental stem cells grow and become tooth-like cells.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
research Human Dermal Fibroblasts Demonstrate Positive Immunostaining for Neuron- and Glia- Specific Proteins
Fibroblasts can be mistaken for neural cells, so functional validation is needed.
research Gene Expression in Rat Dermal Papilla Cells: Analysis of 2529 ESTs
Rat dermal papilla cells have unique genes crucial for hair growth.
research Development of growth factor-incorporating liposomes for integration into scaffolds as a method to improve tissue regeneration
Liposomal carriers can improve tissue regeneration by stabilizing and retaining growth factors.
research trans-3,4'-Dimethyl-3-hydroxyflavanone, a Hair Growth Enhancing Active Component, Decreases Active Transforming Growth Factor .BETA.2 (TGF-.BETA.2) through Control of Urokinase-Type Plasminogen Activator (uPA) on the Surface of Keratinocytes
t-Flavanone may help hair growth by reducing a specific protein's activity in skin cells.
research Postherpetic Poliosis
A man's chest hair turned white after a shingles infection, possibly due to virus-damaged pigment cells.
research Commentary on Platelet-Rich Plasma for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP injections may improve hair loss condition, but more research needed.
research Expression and Cellular Localization of Keratinocyte Growth Factor and Its Receptor in Human Hyperplastic Prostate Tissue1
KGF and its receptor are found in enlarged prostate tissue and KGF strongly increases cell growth.
research Hypertrichosis around a leg ulcer being treated with prostaglandin E1 ointment
A woman's excessive hair growth around a leg ulcer was linked to a treatment with Prostaglandin E1 ointment.
research A mutation in the type II hair keratin KRT86 gene in a Han family with monilethrix
A new mutation in the KRT86 gene was found to cause the hair disorder monilethrix in a Han family.
