Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research To Control Site-Specific Skin Gene Expression, Autocrine Mimics Paracrine Canonical Wnt Signaling and Is Activated Ectopically in Skin Disease
The research suggests that a specific skin gene can be controlled by signals within and between cells and is wrongly activated in certain skin diseases.
research Minoxidil Induction of VEGF Is Mediated by Inhibition of HIF-Prolyl Hydroxylase
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by increasing blood flow and nutrients to hair follicles.
research Double-stranded RNA induces inflammation via the NF-κB pathway and inflammasome activation in the outer root sheath cells of hair follicles
Double-stranded RNA causes inflammation in hair follicle cells, which may help understand and treat alopecia areata.
research Acquired trichomegaly of the eyelashes and hypertrichosis induced by bimatoprost
Bimatoprost can cause longer, thicker, darker eyelashes and eyebrows.
research Human umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells engineered to overexpress growth factors accelerate outcomes in hair growth
Modified stem cells from umbilical cord blood can make hair grow faster.
research Contraceptive use in acne
Hormonal contraceptives can help treat acne by affecting sebum production and androgen levels.
research Investigation by Imaging Mass Spectrometry of Biomarker Candidates for Aging in the Hair Cortex
Certain molecules in hair change with age and could be used for cosmetic treatments.
research Intracellular Calcium Mobilization in Response to Ion Channel Regulators via a Calcium-Induced Calcium Release Mechanism
Certain drugs increase calcium levels in cancer cells by triggering internal calcium release.
research Niche Required for Inducing Quiescent Stem Cells
A special environment is needed to fully activate sleeping stem cells.
research Estrogen-Dependent Ontogeny of Sex Differences in Somatostatin Neurons of the Hypothalamic Periventricular Nucleus*
Male rats have more somatostatin neurons than females due to testosterone converting to estrogen during early development.
research Melanocyte progenitor cells reside in human subcutaneous adipose tissue
Melanocyte progenitor cells are found in human fat tissue and can become mature melanocytes, which may help treat skin issues.
research Human Macrophages Preferentially Infiltrate the Superficial Adipose Tissue
Human body's immune cells are more common in the layer of fat just beneath the skin than in deeper fat layers.
research Development of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata Is Associated with Cardiac Dysfunction in C3H/HeJ Mice
Mice with autoimmune hair loss showed signs of heart problems.
research Intravital longitudinal wide-area imaging of dynamic bone marrow engraftment and multilineage differentiation through nuclear-cytoplasmic labeling
Transplanted bone marrow cells actively move, form clusters, and grow after transplantation.
research Mechanistic Analysis of Human Skin Distribution and Follicular Targeting of Adapalene-Loaded Biodegradable Nanospheres With an Insight Into Hydrogel Matrix Influence, In Vitro Skin Irritation, and In Vivo Tolerability
Researchers developed a nanomedicine for acne treatment that delivers medication with less irritation and is non-irritating for oily skin.
research Histological evaluation of follicular delivery of arginine via nanostructured lipid carriers: a novel potential approach for the treatment of alopecia
Using tiny fat particles to deliver arginine to hair follicles could be a new way to treat hair loss.
research Repurposing Kir6/SUR2 Channel Activator Minoxidil to Arrests Growth of Gynecologic Cancers
Minoxidil can stop the growth of ovarian cancer cells without harming the heart.
research Keratinocytes maintain compartmentalization between dermal papilla and fibroblasts in 3D heterotypic tri‐cultures
Keratinocytes help keep hair follicle cells and skin cells separate in 3D cultures, which is important for hair growth research.
research Establishment of keratinocyte cell lines from human hair follicles
Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role during Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research Advances in the Study of Stem-Cell-Enriched Hair Follicle Bulge Cells: A Review Featuring Characterization and Isolation of Human Bulge Cells

research Basic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. What endocrine systems could be implicated?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research In vivo monitoring of hair cycle stages via bioluminescence imaging of hair follicle NG2 cells
Bioluminescence imaging can track hair follicle cells and help study hair regrowth.
research Protopanaxatirol type ginsenoside Re promotes cyclic growth of hair follicles via inhibiting transforming growth factor β signaling cascades
Ginsenoside Re from ginseng may help hair grow by blocking a specific growth-inhibiting pathway.
