research Androgen actions on the human hair follicle: perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
research Smoking and the skin
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Targeting the Wnt pathways for therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
research The histopathologic spectrum of psoriasis
Psoriasis skin changes are complex and might need several biopsies for a clear diagnosis.
research Follicular Targeting–A Promising Tool in Selective Dermatotherapy
Targeting hair follicles can improve skin treatments and reduce side effects.
research Minoxidil in patients with chronic left heart failure: contrasting hemodynamic and clinical effects in a controlled trial.
Minoxidil helps heart function but doesn't improve exercise ability and may cause complications.

research Pharmacological therapy of benign prostatic hyperplasia/lower urinary tract symptoms: an overview for the practising clinician
Medications have become the main treatment for enlarged prostate symptoms, replacing surgery and watchful waiting.
research Human hair follicle: reservoir function and selective targeting
The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Sensitive skin
Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.
research Circadian clock-mediated control of stem cell division and differentiation: beyond night and day
The circadian clock is crucial for tissue renewal and regeneration, affecting stem cell functions and having implications for health and disease.
research FOXO1, TGF-β Regulation and Wound Healing
FOXO1 is important for wound healing, but its dysfunction in diabetes can slow the healing process.
research Six Novel Susceptibility Loci for Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Unexpected Association with Common Diseases
Six new genetic regions linked to early hair loss also connect to Parkinson's disease and prostate cancer, possibly leading to new treatments.
research Four-amino acid segment in steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 confers sensitivity to finasteride, a competitive inhibitor.
Four-amino acid part makes enzyme sensitive to finasteride.
research Foxp3 Post-translational Modifications and Treg Suppressive Activity
Changes to the Foxp3 protein affect how well regulatory T cells can control the immune system, which could help treat immune diseases and cancer.
research Neurosteroids, neuroactive steroids, and symptoms of affective disorders

Smart biomaterials that guide tissue repair are key for future medical treatments.
research Revisiting dandruff
Dandruff is mainly caused by a scalp reaction to yeast, can worsen hair loss, and antifungal treatments may help.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Applications of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration and Rejuvenation
Mesenchymal stem cells show potential for skin healing and anti-aging, but more research is needed for safe use, especially regarding stem cells from induced pluripotent sources.
research Epidemiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment of Atopic Dermatitis in the Developing Countries of Asia, Africa, Latin America, and the Middle East: A Review
Atopic dermatitis is common in developing countries, but many patients receive poor care due to inconsistent guidelines and lack of resources.
research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
