research Mast cell deficient and neurokinin-1 receptor knockout mice are protected from stress-induced hair growth inhibition
Certain mice without specific receptors or mast cells don't lose hair from stress.
research The Psychology of Gray Hair
Stress can cause hair to turn gray by depleting pigment-producing cells through the release of a stress hormone.
research Ca 2+ -mediated protein citrullination regulates proliferation in the regenerating and malignant CNS
Ca²⁺-mediated protein citrullination controls cell growth in the CNS and may help treat brain tumors.
research Reviewer #3 (Public Review): Spatiotemporal dynamics of sensory neuron and Merkel-cell remodeling are decoupled during epidermal homeostasis
Sensory neuron changes and Merkel-cell changes in the skin happen independently during normal skin maintenance.
research Exosomes from Hair Follicle Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cells Promote Acellular Nerve Allografts to Bridge Rat Facial Nerve Defects
Exosomes from stem cells help improve nerve repair in rats.
research INTRODUCING THEORY LINKING GENESIS OF HAIR SHAFT BIPOLARITY WITH ARRECTOR PILI MUSCLE PROXIMAL ATTACHMENT
The document suggests that human hair has electrical charges because of a gap in nerve cell coverage that affects electromagnetic radiation.
research Cloning of the human phenol sulfotransferase gene family: three genes implicated in the metabolism of catecholamines, thyroid hormones and drugs
Scientists identified three genes important for processing certain brain chemicals, thyroid hormones, and medications.
research The human skin as a hormone target and an endocrine gland
Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.
research Directing Rat Hair Follicle Stem Cells Toward Neuronal Lineage With Enhanced Trophic Factor Expression
Chick embryo extract helps rat hair follicle stem cells become more like neurons.
research Nestin is expressed in HMB‐45 negative melanoma cells in dermal parts of nodular melanoma
Nestin helps identify certain melanoma cells in nodular melanoma.
research A transient dermal niche and dual epidermal programs underlie sweat gland development
Sweat gland development involves two unique skin cell programs and a temporary skin environment.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Neuroendokrine paraneoplastische Syndrome
Neuroendocrine paraneoplastic syndromes often show skin changes, helping early diagnosis and requiring a team approach for best care.
research Serine palmitoyltransferase and peripheral neuropathy: studies on neuropathy-causing mutations and their biochemical hallmarks
Dietary L-serine supplementation can reduce symptoms of HSAN1 by lowering harmful 1-deoxySL levels.
research Histology of moose (Alces alces andersoni) interdigital glands and associated green hairs
Moose have unique interdigital glands with green hairs and larger glands during mating season.
research Human hair keratins promote the regeneration of peripheral nerves in a rat sciatic nerve crush model
Human hair keratin helps repair nerve damage in rats.
research Adenosine and Its Receptors in the Pathogenesis and Treatment of Inflammatory Skin Diseases
Adenosine receptors could be promising targets for treating inflammatory skin diseases like psoriasis.
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic β-Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone helps human pancreatic cells increase insulin release.
research Multipotent Neural Crest Stem Cell-Like Cells from Rat Vibrissa Dermal Papilla Induce Neuronal Differentiation of PC12 Cells
Rat whisker cells can help turn other cells into nerve cells and might be used to treat brain injuries or diseases.
research 572 Olfactory Receptor 2A4/7 Activation by the Fragrance, Cyclohexyl Salicylate, Promotes Human Hair Follicle Growth and Stem Cell Progeny Expansion
The fragrance cyclohexyl salicylate helps promote hair growth and increase hair stem cell numbers.
research Upregulation of genes orchestrating keratinocyte differentiation, including the novel marker gene ID2, by contact sensitizers in human bulge‐derived keratinocytes
The ID2 gene can help distinguish between sensitizers and irritants in skin cells.
research Sodium Metabisulfite: Effects on Ionic Currents and Excitotoxicity
Sodium metabisulfite increases sodium channel activity, leading to higher cell excitability and potential damage.
research Neuroimmunoendocrine circuitry of the ‘brain-skin connection’
Stress can worsen skin conditions and stop hair growth by affecting the body's stress response system.
research Central precocious puberty secondary to peripheral precocious puberty due to a pineal germ cell tumor: a case and review of literature
A pineal tumor caused a boy's early puberty, which changed from peripheral to central after treatment.
research The development of cutaneous afferent pathways in fetal sheep: a structural and functional study
Fetal sheep develop skin nerve pathways and responses to touch and heat between 75 and 134 days of gestation.
research Specific Citrullination Causes Assembly of a Globular S100A3 Homotetramer
A specific chemical change in the S100A3 protein leads to the formation of a four-part structure important for hair formation.
research Immunohistochemical staining characteristics of epidermal appendages (hair follicles and eccrine sweat glands) to anti-epidermal keratin antisera
Hair follicles and sweat glands show different keratin staining patterns.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Comment on scalp neuropathy in androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
