research Facial preservation following extreme mummification: Shrunken heads
Shrunken heads retain some facial features and hair characteristics, allowing for limited individual identification.
research Site of beige (bg) and leaden (ln) pigment gene expression determined by recombinant embryonic skin grafts and aggregation mouse chimaeras employing sash (Wsh) homozygotes
Beige and leaden pigment genes act within melanocytes, affecting pigment patterns.
research Skin biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research Gonadal Sex Steroids: Production, Action and Interactions in Mammals
The document concludes that sex hormones are crucial for mammalian reproduction, health, and behavior, and require more research for therapeutic use.
research Nickel Oxide Nanoparticles via Green Synthesis: Insights into Antimicrobial, Antifungal and Dye Degradation Potentials
Nickel oxide nanoparticles made with plant extract can kill bacteria and fungi and break down dyes.
research Isolation and molecular characterization of Malassezia pachydermatis from a cutaneous lesion in a California sea lion (Zalophus californianus)
The yeast found in a sea lion's skin lesion was almost identical to that on healthy skin, suggesting environmental factors may affect fungal growth and the cause of the lesion is unclear.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Heredity and hormones cause common hair loss, and topical minoxidil is the first recommended treatment.

research Dissecting the boundary of quiescence and activation of murine melanocyte stem cells in the hair follicle niche
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key to understanding and potentially preventing hair graying.
research Immune niches for hair follicle development and homeostasis
Immune cells are crucial for hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research Mesenchyme governs hair follicle induction
The mesenchyme can start hair growth, but the exact signal that causes this is still unknown.
research The role of the skin microbiome in the development of alopecia areata
The skin's bacteria might influence the development of a hair loss condition called alopecia areata.
research Hair loss: a clinical update
The article concludes that a thorough diagnosis and treatment plan, including medications, non-invasive methods, or surgery, is important for managing hair loss, with a combination of minoxidil and finasteride being particularly effective.
research Alopecia
The document concludes that alopecia has significant social and psychological effects, leading to a market for hair loss treatments.
research The role of hair follicles and Edar signalling in cutaneous wound healing
Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
research II Nanosciesce and Nanotecnology Biomedicals Symposium - Proceedings
Nanotechnology shows promise for better drug delivery and cancer treatment.
research Secondary Cicatricial and other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Viewpoint 1
Understanding skin patterns can help us learn about skin diseases and their treatments.
research Understanding the functional contribution of dermal stem cells to hair follicle regeneration and skin wound healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.
research CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ Regulatory Tregs inhibit fibrocyte recruitment and fibrosis via suppression of FGF-9 production in the TGF-β1 exposed murine lung
Special immune cells called Tregs can help prevent lung scarring by blocking a specific growth factor.
