research Gender-linked differences in human skin
Male and female skin differ in many ways, which could lead to gender-specific skin treatments.
research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Effects of Visible Light on the Skin†
Visible light can damage skin and most sunscreens don't block it well; more research is needed on its effects and protection methods.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research A Therapeutic Microneedle Patch Made from Hair-Derived Keratin for Promoting Hair Regrowth
A new microneedle patch made from hair proteins helps regrow hair faster and better than current treatments.
research Commensal Microbes and Hair Follicle Morphogenesis Coordinately Drive Treg Migration into Neonatal Skin
Hair follicle development and microbes help regulatory T cells gather in newborn skin.
research Cutaneous adverse effects of targeted therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause serious skin problems that need careful management.
research Genome-wide Maps of Histone Modifications Unwind In Vivo Chromatin States of the Hair Follicle Lineage
Hair follicle stem cells use specific chromatin changes to control their growth and differentiation.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
