Blocking SCD1 in the skin with XEN103 shrinks sebaceous glands in mice.
research Topical L‐thyroxine: The Cinderella among hormones waiting to dance on the floor of dermatological therapy?
Topical L-thyroxine may help with wound healing and hair growth but should be used short-term due to potential risks.
research Hair follicle immune privilege in autoimmune and immune-mediated alopecias: paths toward reestablishing immune tolerance
Different types of alopecia cause hair loss due to immune system issues, with some allowing regrowth and others causing permanent loss.
research Application and progress of induced pluripotent stem in chronic wound healing: a narrative review
Induced pluripotent stem cells could improve chronic wound healing but face safety and effectiveness challenges.
research AP-2α/AP-2β transcription factors are key regulators of epidermal homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Transplantation immunology: Solid organ and bone marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Unmet Medical Needs in Chronic, Non-communicable Inflammatory Skin Diseases

research Comparative Proteomic Analysis in Scar-Free Skin Regeneration in Acomys cahirinus and Scarring Mus musculus
The African spiny mouse heals skin without scarring due to different protein activity compared to the common house mouse, which heals with scarring.
research The Biology of Hair Growth
Hair growth is influenced by hormones and goes through different phases; androgens can both promote and inhibit hair growth depending on the body area.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Abstracts Presented at the 12th Joint Meeting of the International Society of Dermatopathology, March 4-5, 2009, Marines Memorial Club & Hotel, San Francisco, CA, USA
Mast cells play a significant role in hair loss conditions like male pattern hair loss and alopecia areata.
research Molecular Regulation and Cellular Heterogeneity in Skin Repair and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Ovol2 is crucial for hair growth and skin healing by controlling cell movement and growth.
research A bald statement - Current approaches to manipulate miniaturisation focus only on promoting hair growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research Androgenetic alopecia: combing the hair follicle signaling pathways for new therapeutic targets and more effective treatment options
New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
