research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Comprehensive analysis of circRNAs from cashmere goat skin by next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-seq)
Four circRNAs were found to be significantly different in cashmere goat skin, affecting cashmere fineness.
research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment
Gene therapy has potential as a future treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Genetic Study
High levels of TNF-α may contribute to obesity and insulin resistance in PCOS, but not due to the C850T genetic variation.
research Comparative study on seasonal hair follicle cycling by analysis of the transcriptomes from cashmere and milk goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.

A 10-year-old boy recovered from a scalp infection caused by a fungus after treatment with itraconazole.
research Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Can you pull it off? Appearance modifying behaviours adopted by wig users with alopecia in social interactions
Wig users with alopecia do a lot of emotional and practical work to make their wigs look natural and manage how others see them.
research The intragenic mRNA-microRNA regulatory network during telogen-anagen hair follicle transition in the cashmere goat
The research found that a complex gene network, controlled by microRNAs, is important for hair growth in cashmere goats.
research Identification of microRNAs involved in growth arrest and cell death in hydrogen peroxide-treated human dermal papilla cells
Targeting specific miRNAs may help treat hair follicle issues caused by hydrogen peroxide.
research The Human Type II Keratin Gene Cluster on Chromosome 12q13.13: Final Count or Hidden Secrets?
The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.
research Chapter 23. Therapeutic Control of Androgen Action
Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.
research Longer TA repeat but not V89L polymorphisms in the SRD5A2 gene may confer acne risk in the Chinese population
Longer TA repeats in the SRD5A2 gene may increase acne risk in Chinese people.
research Highly Conserved Keratin-Associated Protein 7-1 Gene in Yak, Taurine and Zebu Cattle
The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
research Follikelhormone
Follicle Stimulating Hormone is important for fertility.
research Montagna Symposium 2015: Harnessing Stem Cells to Reveal Novel Skin Biology and Disease Treatments
The symposium showed that stem cells are key for understanding and treating skin diseases and for developing new skin models and therapies.
research Dermatological Manifestations of Stress in Normal and Psychiatric Populations
Stress can worsen skin conditions and affect mental health, so doctors should include stress management in skin treatment.
research Testosterone therapy for transgender men
Testosterone therapy in transgender men has both desired effects like increased muscle mass and potential health risks such as higher cardiovascular risk.
research Hair and cancer chemotherapy: consequences and nursing care - a literature study
Chemotherapy-induced hair loss significantly affects patients' well-being, and nurses are key in helping them cope, but more research is needed to find effective treatments.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Effects of epidermal growth factor, fibroblast growth factor, minoxidil and hydrocortisone on growth kinetics in human hair bulb papilla cells and root sheath fibroblasts cultured in vitro
EGF and FGF boost hair cell growth, hydrocortisone slows it, and minoxidil doesn't affect it.
