research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Androgenetic alopecia and microinflammation
Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.
research Molecular mechanisms of asymmetric divisions in mammary stem cells
Disruptions in mammary stem cell division can lead to cancer, but targeting these processes might help treat breast cancer.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Insulin resistance and the long-term consequences of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance in women with PCOS can lead to serious health issues, but lifestyle changes and certain medications can help manage symptoms.
research CXXC5: A novel regulator and coordinator of TGF-β, BMP and Wnt signaling
CXXC5 is a protein that controls cell growth and healing processes, and changes in its activity can lead to diseases like cancer and hair loss.
research Retinoid Metabolism Is Altered in Human and Mouse Cicatricial Alopecia
Altered retinoid metabolism in cicatricial alopecia suggests a balanced vitamin A diet may prevent the condition.
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 Mechanisms underlying select chemotherapeutic-agent-induced neuroinflammation and subsequent neurodegeneration
Chemotherapy can cause brain inflammation and damage, and understanding this process could help manage side effects.
research Invasion and increased expression of S100A4 and CYR61 in mesenchymal transformed breast cancer cells is downregulated by GnRH
GnRH treatment can reduce breast cancer cell invasion.
research Hypothalamic DNA methylation in rats with dihydrotestosterone‐induced polycystic ovary syndrome: effects of low‐frequency electro‐acupuncture
Electro-acupuncture may help treat PCOS in rats by changing brain DNA methylation.
research Sex hormones and antiandrogens influence in vitro growth of dermal papilla cells and outer root sheath keratinocytes of human hair follicles
Sex hormones and antiandrogens can either stimulate or inhibit human hair follicle cell growth depending on the dose.
research COVID‐19, androgens, and androgenic alopecia
COVID-19 may worsen with androgens; anti-androgen drugs could help.
research Tenascin-C expressing touch dome keratinocytes exhibit characteristics of all epidermal lineages
Touch dome keratinocytes in adult skin have traits of different skin cell types.
research TMT-Based Proteomic Explores the Influence of DHEA on the Osteogenic Differentiation of hBMSCs
DHEA boosts bone cell growth and differentiation in elderly stem cells.
research Skin manifestations of endocrine diseases
Hormone imbalances from endocrine diseases can cause various skin conditions that help diagnose and treat these diseases early.
research Gut microbiome, metabolome and alopecia areata
The health of the gut may be important in developing new ways to prevent, diagnose, and treat alopecia areata.
research Alleviation of Severe Skin Insults Following High-Dose Irradiation with Isolated Human Fetal Placental Stromal Cells
Human fetal placental stromal cell injections speed up healing and improve skin and hair recovery after radiation damage.
research Cardiodermatology in the physician’s practice
Skin problems like psoriasis and systemic sclerosis can increase the risk of heart disease, so doctors should watch for heart risks in patients with these conditions.
research Lithium chloride-treated human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells-derived exsomes promote hair growth by regulating miR-146a-5p-wnt pathway
