research Cell Density-Dependent Upregulation of PDCD4 in Keratinocytes and Its Implications for Epidermal Homeostasis and Repair
PDCD4 is important for controlling skin cell growth and healing.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Differential Expression of Proteins Associated with the Hair Follicle Cycle - Proteomics and Bioinformatics Analyses
Researchers found 44 proteins that change during different hair growth stages and may be important for hair follicle function.
research Cell proliferation during fibre growth initiation in ferret hair follicles
Ferret hair growth starts between 0 and 4 days after melatonin treatment, with cell growth peaking in the hair germ and declining as the hair matures.
research T-cell “induced-self” MHC class I/peptide complexes may enable “de novo” tolerance induction to neo-antigens occurring outside of the thymus
Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.
research The incidental pore: CaV1.2 and stem cell activation in quiescent hair follicles
CaV1.2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells without calcium flux.
research Wnt-dependent de novo hair follicle regeneration in adult mouse skin after wounding
After skin injury, adult mice can grow new hair follicles, and this process can be increased or stopped by manipulating Wnt signals.
research Modulation of Dermal Cell Activity During Hair Growth in the Rat
Dermal cell activity increases during hair growth in rats.
research The genetically programmed hair growth cycle and alopecia: what is there to know?
The document concludes that hair loss is complex, affects many people, has limited treatments, and requires more research on its causes and psychological impact.
research EGFR : stopping stathmin to start the cycle
EGFR helps hair follicles transition properly by controlling Stathmin levels.
research Industrial-scale processing of activated platelet-rich plasma from specific pathogen-free pigs and its effect on promoting human hair follicle dermal papilla cell cultivation
Pig blood plasma can be used to promote human hair growth and is a good alternative to the commonly used serum additive.
research Autophagy Dysfunction: The Kernel of Hair Loss?
Manipulating cell cleanup processes could help treat hair loss.
research Epimorphic regeneration in mice is p53-independent
Mice can regenerate ear tissue without the p53 protein.
research Expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in various compartments of the human hair follicle
Dermal papilla cells mainly drive blood vessel growth in hair follicles.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Corticotropin releasing hormone and the skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Clock genes, hair growth and aging
Circadian clock genes are important for hair growth and may affect aging-related hair loss and graying.
research LB999 Role of transcription factor Ovol2 in skin epithelial regeneration and repair
Ovol2 is essential for normal skin and hair regeneration.
research Mechanism of Apoptotic Regulation of Follicular Regression
The document concludes that understanding how hair follicles naturally die and regenerate is important for insights into organ development and could impact health and disease treatment.
research Focal alopecia in the dog
Focal alopecia in dogs has many causes and requires various tests for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
research Plasticity of differentiated cells in wound repair and tumorigenesis, part II: skin and intestine
Mature cells can re-enter the cell cycle and potentially lead to cancer.
research 743 Adipocyte stem cells are maintained by Pdgfα signaling in the skin
Pdgfα signaling helps maintain fat cells in the skin and is important for hair growth, wound healing, and fighting infections.
research The functions of ocu-miR-205 in regulating hair follicle development in Rex rabbits
ocu-miR-205 affects hair density in Rex rabbits by altering hair follicle growth and signaling pathways.
research 1272 p21Waf1/Cip1 is differentially expressed in epidermal versus follicular melanocytes and melanoma cells and is phenotypically regulated by UVB-mediated apoptosis
The protein p21 is more abundant in normal skin cells than in melanoma cells and may help protect against melanoma, with UVB light affecting its levels.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Epigallocatechin Gallate-Mediated Alteration of the MicroRNA Expression Profile in 5α-Dihydrotestosterone-Treated Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Green tea component EGCG may help prevent hair loss by changing microRNA levels in certain scalp cells.
research Making the head: Caspases in life and death
Caspases are enzymes important for both cell death and various non-lethal cell functions, affecting head development and hair growth, with different caspases playing specific roles.
research Genome-wide identification, characterization, and expression analysis of keratin genes (KRTs) family in yak (Bos grunniens)
Scientists found 53 keratin genes in yaks that are important for hair growth and share similarities with those in other animals.
research The Retinoic-Acid-Related Orphan Receptor Alpha May Be Highly Involved in the Regulation of Seasonal Hair Molting
