research Clinical Findings, Cutaneous Pathology, and Response to Therapy in 21 Patients With Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans
The study found that Keratosis Pilaris Atrophicans is a genetic skin condition that starts in childhood, involves inflammation and scarring, and current treatments are only somewhat effective.
research Keratinocyte-specific ablation of the NF-κB regulatory protein A20 (TNFAIP3) reveals a role in the control of epidermal homeostasis
A20 protein is crucial for normal skin and hair development.
research 9 Pilosebaceous physiology in relation to hirsutism and acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Topographical and developmental studies on target sites of 1,25 (OH2) vitamin D3 in skin
Vitamin D3 affects cell differentiation in specific skin areas.
research Dermatoscopy of hair shaft disorders
Dermatoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders and can help choose samples for more detailed analysis.
research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Anagen effluvium
Hair usually grows back 1-3 months after treatment for anagen effluvium, and children with Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome often improve by adolescence.
research Receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) stimulates the proliferation of epithelial cells of the epidermo-pilosebaceous unit
RANK-RANKL signaling is essential for hair growth and skin health.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Exogenous IGF-1 promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and down regulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 mice in vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
Maintaining the right amount of retinoic acid is crucial for healthy hair and skin.
research The biology of hair diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
research The Androgen Receptor Antagonizes Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling in Epidermal Stem Cells
Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Identification of hair shaft progenitors that create a niche for hair pigmentation
Scientists found cells in hair that are key for growth and color.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research THE BIOLOGY OF HAIR CARE
Better hair care products are needed to protect against grooming and chemical damage.
research A Practical Approach to the Diagnosis and Management of Hair Loss in Children and Adolescents
Early and personalized treatment for hair loss in young people is crucial to prevent permanent damage and should include psychological support.
research Brazilian keratin hair treatment: a review
Brazilian keratin treatments can straighten hair but may contain harmful formaldehyde.
research Tight Junction barriers in human hair follicles – role of claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
