research Sulphation catalysed by the human cytosolic sulphotransferases - chemical defence or molecular terrorism?
Human enzymes can detoxify harmful substances but might also increase their cancer risk.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research Ultrasound-activated particles as CRISPR/Cas9 delivery system for androgenic alopecia therapy
Scientists have created a new hair loss treatment using ultrasound to deliver gene-editing particles, which resulted in up to 90% hair regrowth in mice.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Noncoding dsRNA induces retinoic acid synthesis to stimulate hair follicle regeneration via TLR3
Noncoding dsRNA boosts hair growth by activating TLR3 and increasing retinoic acid.
research Promotion of homology-directed DNA repair by polyamines
Polyamines help fix DNA damage accurately in cells.
research Androgens modify Wnt agonists/antagonists expression balance in dermal papilla cells preventing hair follicle stem cell differentiation in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens prevent hair growth by changing Wnt signals in cells.
research Low-level laser therapy as a treatment for androgenetic alopecia
Low-level laser therapy may improve hair regrowth and thickness for androgenetic alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Inherited ichthyosis: Syndromic forms
Understanding the genetics of rare inherited ichthyosis syndromes is key for better treatments and genetic counseling.
research A nude mouse model of hypertrophic scar shows morphologic and histologic characteristics of human hypertrophic scar
Nude mice with grafted human skin developed scars similar to human hypertrophic scars.
research Maternal western diet causes inflammatory milk and TLR2/4-dependent neonatal toxicity
A mother's western diet can make her milk toxic, causing inflammation and hair loss in babies.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Sustained release of dermal papilla-derived extracellular vesicles from injectable microgel promotes hair growth
Injecting a special gel with human protein particles can help hair grow.
research The Androgen Receptor Antagonizes Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Epidermal Stem Cells
Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.
research Controllable Production of Transplantable Adult Human High-Passage Dermal Papilla Spheroids Using 3D Matrigel Culture
Researchers created hair-inducing human cell clusters using a 3D culture method.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Influence of substance-P on cultured sebocytes
Substance P may worsen acne by increasing inflammation, but corticosteroids might help by reducing this effect.
research Localization of Minoxidil Sulfotransferase in Rat Liver and the Outer Root Sheath of Anagen Pelage and Vibrissa Follicles
Minoxidil works in liver and outer hair root sheath for hair growth.
research Effects of melatonin administration on mental health parameters, metabolic and genetic profiles in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: A randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
Melatonin improved mental health and metabolism in women with PCOS.
research Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway activates melanocyte stem cells in vitro and in vivo
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway can activate melanocyte stem cells and may help regenerate hair follicles.
research Gelatin-chondroitin-6-sulfate-hyaluronic acid scaffold seeded with vascular endothelial growth factor 165 modified hair follicle stem cells as a three-dimensional skin substitute
Modified rat stem cells on a special scaffold improved blood vessel formation and wound healing in skin substitutes.
research Overexpression of aldo-keto reductase 1C3 (AKR1C3) in LNCaP cells diverts androgen metabolism towards testosterone resulting in resistance to the 5α-reductase inhibitor finasteride
Too much AKR1C3 enzyme causes resistance to finasteride by increasing testosterone.
research Human type 3 5α-reductase is expressed in peripheral tissues at higher levels than types 1 and 2 and its activity is potently inhibited by finasteride and dutasteride
Type 3 5α-reductase is more common and finasteride and dutasteride strongly inhibit it.
research Significance of the S100A4 Protein in Psoriasis
The S100A4 protein is more common in psoriatic skin and could be a target for treating psoriasis.
