research Module-based complexity formation: periodic patterning in feathers and hairs
The conclusion is that understanding how feathers and hairs pattern can help in developing hair regeneration treatments.
research Clinical and histological challenge in the differential diagnosis of diffuse alopecia: female androgenetic alopecia, telogen effluvium and alopecia areata – part II
Diagnosing diffuse alopecia, a hair loss condition, can be challenging and may require a scalp biopsy or tracking the disease's progression when symptoms and skin tests aren't enough.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin is essential for protection, temperature control, and immune defense.
research Building and Maintaining the Skin
Three types of stem cells help maintain and repair skin, responding to health and environmental changes.
research Current Management and Treatment Options for Breast Pain
Breast pain is common and usually not linked to cancer, with treatment varying by severity.
research Analysing the dynamics of a model for alopecia areata as an autoimmune disorder of hair follicle cycling
The model helps understand and improve treatments for alopecia areata by simulating hair growth and immune cell interactions.
research A patient with combined polycystic ovary syndrome and autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2
A woman was the first known case to have both polycystic ovary syndrome and autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 2, suggesting a need to check for both conditions in similar patients.
research Recurring Chemotherapy-Associated Alopecia Areata: Case Report and Literature Review
Chemotherapy may cause recurring hair loss due to an autoimmune response.
research The Shaven (Sha) Mutation, Chromosome 15
The Shaven mutation in mice affects hair growth and causes a greasy coat due to abnormal lipid content.
research Investigating drug induced alopecia
Many drugs, not just chemotherapy, can cause reversible hair loss.
research Preferential crosstalk between perifollicular capillary vessels and dermal papilla cells during hair cycling homeostasis
Capillary and dermal papilla interactions are vital for hair growth and aging, with potential for treating hair loss.
research A Multiaxial Bioreactor Integrated with an Environmental Monitoring System for Tissue‐Engineered Skin Grafts
The new bioreactor improves skin grafts by evenly stretching cells and monitoring conditions for better growth.
research Effects of Hormones and Endocrine Disorders on Hair Growth
Hormones significantly influence hair growth, with conditions like hirsutism and patterned hair loss linked to hormone levels; more research is needed for full understanding.
research An approach to disorders of pigmentation
The document concludes that pigmentation disorders in animals involve complex interactions between melanocytes and keratinocytes.
research Immunohistochemical analysis of estrogen and progesterone receptors in endometrium and peritoneal endometriosis: A new quantitative method
The new method showed that endometriotic tissue has lower estrogen receptor levels but similar progesterone levels compared to normal endometrium, with both following a similar cycle.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Metformin and malignant neoplasms: a possible mechanism of antitumor action and prospects for use in practice
Metformin, a diabetes drug, may also help fight cancer, but more research is needed to understand how.
research Overcoming the Low Bioavailability of Apigenin: The Therapeutic Efficacy for Androgenetic Alopecia Through Topical Administration
Apigenin may effectively promote hair growth for androgenetic alopecia when applied topically.
research Author response: Lhx2 is a progenitor-intrinsic modulator of Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis
Lhx2 is a crucial regulator of the Sonic Hedgehog signaling in early mouse retinal development.
research Decision letter: Lhx2 is a progenitor-intrinsic modulator of Sonic Hedgehog signaling during early retinal neurogenesis
Lhx2 helps retinal cells respond to signals for eye development.
research Abstract A12: Androgen receptor inhibition is involved in Finasteride-reduced AML cell proliferation
Finasteride reduces AML cell growth by inhibiting androgen receptors.
research Special collection on inward rectifying K+ channels
Inward rectifier potassium channels are important in many body functions and diseases, and could be potential drug targets.
research Rapid Characterization of the Functional and Pharmacological Consequences of Cantú Syndrome KATPChannel Mutations in Intact Cells
Kir6.1 mutations in Cantú syndrome increase channel sensitivity and hyperpolarization, while SUR2B mutations do not.
research Is neuronal inhibition or excitability controlled by Na+K+2CL– transporters?
NKCC1 transporters help control neuron excitability and inhibition.
research A Study of the Expression of Small Conductance Calcium-Activated Potassium Channels (SK1-3) in Sensory Endings of Muscle Spindles and Lanceolate Endings of Hair Follicles in the Rat
SK2 channels help control sensory signals in rat muscle spindles and hair follicles.
research The Emerging Structural Pharmacology of ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels
KATP channels are important for energy balance and are targeted by drugs for diabetes, hypoglycemia, hypertension, and hair loss.
research The atypical ‘hippocampal’ glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D that controls stretch‐sensitivity in primary mechanosensory nerve endings is homomeric purely metabotropic GluK2
A special receptor in sensory nerve endings helps control how they respond to stretching.
