research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Potential role and therapeutic interests of myo-inositol in metabolic diseases
Myo-inositol supplements may improve insulin sensitivity and help with conditions like PCOS and gestational diabetes, but more research is needed.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Balding hair follicle dermal papilla cells contain higher levels of androgen receptors than those from non-balding scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Drug-Induced Hair Loss and Hair Growth
Some drugs can cause hair loss or increase hair growth, but these effects are usually reversible when the drug is stopped.
research Hairless triggers reactivation of hair growth by promoting Wnt signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
research PDGF isoforms induce and maintain anagen phase of murine hair follicles
PDGF isoforms can promote and sustain hair growth.
research Human hair follicle organ culture: theory, application and perspectives
Human hair follicle organ culture is a useful model for hair research with potential for studying hair biology and testing treatments.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Stress exposure modulates peptidergic innervation and degranulates mast cells in murine skin
Stress increases nerve fibers and immune cell activity in mouse skin, possibly worsening skin conditions.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research MicroRNA-214 controls skin and hair follicle development by modulating the activity of the Wnt pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research Diagnosis of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The definition of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome may change with new research, and careful screening is key for managing the condition.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Side-Effects of Spironolactone Therapy in the Hirsute Woman
Spironolactone can cause side effects like irregular bleeding, but lower doses may reduce these effects and still improve hirsutism.
research Skin connective tissue and ageing
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Improving stable isotopic interpretations made from human hair through reduction of growth cycle error
The conclusion is that recognizing hair growth cycles can improve the precision of dietary and health assessments from hair analysis.
research p53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
