research Characterization of Primary Cilia and Intraflagellar Transport 20 in the Epidermis
Ift20 is essential for hair follicle function and skin cell movement.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Herbal Approaches for the Management of Premature Hair Greying: Mechanisms, Phytoconstituents and Delivery Strategies
Herbal remedies show promise for managing premature hair greying but need more research.
research Skin aging: mechanisms, evaluation, and rejuvenation
Skin aging can be slowed by targeting cells, hormones, and the microbiome.
research Fractional CO₂ laser combined with topical compound betamethasone for Vitiligo-Associated Leukotrichia: a retrospective study of 13 patients with limited effectiveness
The treatment showed limited success in repigmenting hair for vitiligo-associated leukotrichia.
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 Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research The Role of Extracellular Vesicles in Cutaneous Remodeling and Hair Follicle Dynamics
Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
research Runx1 Role in Epithelial and Cancer Cell Proliferation Implicates Lipid Metabolism and Scd1 and Soat1 Activity
Runx1 controls fat-related genes important for normal and cancer cell growth, affecting skin and hair cell behavior.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research Are hair follicle stem cells promising candidates for wound healing?
Hair follicle stem cells are promising for wound healing but require more research for safe clinical use.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Comparison of Calcium and Barium Microcapsules as Scaffolds in the Development of Artificial Dermal Papillae
Calcium microcapsules are better for long-term use in artificial dermal papilla, while barium microcapsules are good for short-term.
research Human Hair Follicle: An Update on Biology and Perspectives in Hair Growth Disorders Treatment
New treatments for hair growth disorders are needed due to limited current options and complex hair follicle biology.
research Natural products and their derivatives as candidate treatments for hair greying: from drug discovery to molecular mechanisms
Natural products might help treat hair greying.
research Proceedings of the Heinz Maurer-Symposium “Review and Preview in Science for Healthy Skin” June 28th 2014, Jakobsberg, Boppard, Germany
The symposium concluded that environmental factors significantly contribute to skin aging.
research Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Regenerative Potency in Periodontium
Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.
research Systematic Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma Use in Androgenetic Alopecia Compared with Minoxidil®, Finasteride®, and Adult Stem Cell-Based Therapy
PRP injections may be a safe, effective alternative for hair loss treatment compared to minoxidil and finasteride.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Addressing an antiferromagnetic memory
Researchers developed a new type of memory using antiferromagnets that is stable, not disrupted by magnets, and works at room temperature.
research Genomewide differential expression profiling of long non-coding RNAs in androgenetic alopecia in a Chinese male population
Found different long non-coding RNAs in balding Chinese men, which may help create new treatments.
research Sustained Human Hair Follicle Growth Ex Vivo in a Glycosaminoglycan Hydrogel Matrix
