Fat-derived stem cells can help protect and repair skin stem cells from aging caused by UV light.
research Perspectives in dermatopathology: telomeres and telomerase in ageing and cancer; with emphasis on cutaneous disease
Short telomeres contribute to aging and cancer, and while telomerase can delay aging, it may also promote cancer.
research Regeneration, Wound Healing and Cancer
The document concludes that while some organisms can regenerate body parts, mammals generally cannot, and cancer progression is complex, involving mutations rather than a strict stem cell hierarchy.
research Evaluation of antioxidant and oxidant status, including levels of Malondialdehyde (MDA) and Superoxide Dismutase (SOD), in the Indian population with alopecia areata
Oxidative stress is important in causing alopecia areata.
research Calcineurin-based immunosuppression in renal transplantation : focus on efficacy, the role of steroids, and the cardiovascular risk
Tacrolimus causes fewer acute rejections than cyclosporin A in kidney transplants but doesn't necessarily improve kidney function after one year; cardiovascular risks and side effects vary between the two drugs.
research Understanding the functional contribution of dermal stem cells to hair follicle regeneration and skin wound healing
Dermal stem cells help regenerate hair follicles and heal skin wounds.

research Mechanisms of impairment in hair and scalp induced by hair dyeing and perming and potential interventions
Hair dyes and perms can damage hair and scalp, but using interventions can reduce harm.
research Complications of Cushing's syndrome: state of the art
Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.
research A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology
Capsaicin, found in chili peppers, can slow down hair growth by affecting skin cells and hair follicles.
research Skin CD4+ memory T cells exhibit combined cluster-mediated retention and equilibration with the circulation
Memory T cells in the skin balance staying put and moving into the blood, clustering around hair follicles, and increasing in number after infection.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Focus on a complex relationship: A review
Vitamin D is important for skin health and may affect conditions like psoriasis and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand its role fully.
research Macrophages Regulate Schwann Cell Maturation after Nerve Injury
Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.
research Physiologic functions of PP2A: Lessons from genetically modified mice
Mice studies show that Protein Phosphatase 2A is crucial for cell growth, development, and disease prevention.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
