research Physiologic skin changes in pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin darkening, varicose veins, more sweating, hair growth, hair loss after birth, nail changes, and gum inflammation.
research Androgenetic Alopecia in Women
Androgenetic alopecia in women needs more research and better management strategies.
research Stem cell dynamics in the hair follicle niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research The spectrum of cutaneous manifestations in lupus erythematosus—the Italian experience
In Italian patients with lupus, the most common skin issue was chronic cutaneous lupus, especially discoid lesions, and nonspecific skin problems occurred in about a third of those with systemic lupus, mainly during active disease.
research Penetration enhancer-containing vesicles (PEVs) as carriers for cutaneous delivery of minoxidil
PEVs improve minoxidil skin penetration, increasing hair growth.
research Comparative Transcriptome Analysis of Fetal Skin Reveals Key Genes Related to Hair Follicle Morphogenesis in Cashmere Goats
Key genes and pathways crucial for hair follicle development in cashmere goats were identified, aiding fleece production improvement.
research Probiotic Bacteria Induce a ‘Glow of Health’
Probiotic bacteria improved skin and hair health in aged mice.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia versus lichen planopilaris: a clinicopathological study
The conclusion is that FFA and LPP have similar scalp biopsy features, making them hard to distinguish histologically, and FFA may be a specific kind of scarring hair loss.
research Penetration and storage of particles in human skin: Perspectives and safety aspects
Particles around 100 nm can penetrate and stay in hair follicles without passing through healthy skin, making them safe for use in topical products and useful for targeted drug delivery.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Histopathology of non-scarring alopecia
The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
research External genitalia abnormalities in male rats exposed in utero to finasteride, a 5α-reductase inhibitor
Finasteride exposure in pregnancy causes genital abnormalities in male rats.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Biology of the wool follicle: an excursion into a unique tissue interaction system waiting to be re‐discovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research New Antifungal Agents and New Formulations Against Dermatophytes
New topical antifungals and delivery systems are improving treatment for fungal skin infections, but patient education and prevention are key.
research Deep Insight of Design, Mechanism, and Cancer Theranostic Strategy of Nanozymes
Nanozymes show promise for effective and safe cancer treatment.
research Phenotype and metabolic profile of South Asian women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS): results of a large database from a specialist Endocrine Clinic
South Asian women with PCOS are more likely to have metabolic issues and central obesity, and simple measures like waist size and blood pressure can help identify these risks early.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research THE HAIR CYCLE OF THE MOUSE AND ITS IMPORTANCE IN THE STUDY OF SEQUENCES OF EXPERIMENTAL CARCINOGENESIS
Understanding the mouse hair cycle is crucial for cancer research.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research The human hair: from anatomy to physiology
The document concludes that hair is complex, with a detailed growth cycle, structure, and clinical importance, affecting various scientific and medical fields.
research Exogen, Shedding Phase of the Hair Growth Cycle: Characterization of a Mouse Model
Researchers found that hair shedding happens mostly when new hair is growing and involves a unique process.
research Medical and surgical therapies for alopecias in black women
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and a combination of medical, hair-care, and surgical treatments are important for managing alopecia in black women.
research Aging of hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research Genetic Ablation of the CDP/Cux Protein C Terminus Results in Hair Cycle Defects and Reduced Male Fertility
Mutant CDP/Cux protein causes hair defects and reduced male fertility in mice.
research Elemental hair analysis: A review of procedures and applications
Hair elemental analysis could be useful for health and exposure assessment but requires more standardization and research.
