research Macrophage-Stimulating Protein Promotes Hair Growth Ex Vivo and Induces Anagen from Telogen Stage Hair Follicles In Vivo
Macrophage-stimulating protein helps hair grow and can start hair growth phase in mice and human hair samples.
research Relationship between betacoronaviruses and the endocrine system: a new key to understand the COVID-19 pandemic—A comprehensive review
Betacoronaviruses, like COVID-19, may cause hormone system dysfunction and affect disease susceptibility and severity.
research Transgenic mice overexpressing CD109 in the epidermis display decreased inflammation and granulation tissue and improved collagen architecture during wound healing
Mice genetically modified to produce more CD109 in their skin had less inflammation and better healing with less scarring.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research The endocrinology of baldness
Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Topical Mechlorethamine Restores Autoimmune-Arrested Follicular Activity in Mice with an Alopecia Areata-Like Disease by Targeting Infiltrated Lymphocytes
Mechlorethamine treatment regrew hair in mice by killing immune cells causing hair loss without harming hair follicles.
research Lactoferrin promotes hair growth in mice and increases dermal papilla cell proliferation through Erk/Akt and Wnt signaling pathways
Lactoferrin helps mice grow hair by increasing cell growth and hair follicle development.
research Vitamin D increases expression of cathelicidin in cultured sebocytes
Vitamin D boosts a specific protein in skin cells linked to hair follicles.
research The probable destructive mechanisms behind COVID-19 on male reproduction system and fertility
COVID-19 may harm male fertility and damage the reproductive system.
research A preliminary study of differentially expressed genes in expanded skin and normal skin: implications for adult skin regeneration
The study found that expanded skin regenerates similarly to normal skin, with 77 genes playing a role in the process.
research Transforming Growth Factor-??, Smad, and Collagen Expression Patterns in Fetal and Adult Keratinocytes
Keratinocytes show more TGF-β system activity and collagen production as they age, which might affect wound scarring.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research Serum level of interleukin-15 in active alopecia areata patients and its relation to age, sex, and disease severity
Higher interleukin-15 levels are linked to more severe alopecia areata, but not to age or gender.
research An updated review of the sebaceous gland and its role in health and diseases Part 1: Embryology, evolution, structure, and function of sebaceous glands
Sebaceous glands in our skin, developing during pregnancy and active in puberty, produce sebum for skin lubrication, temperature control, and fighting germs, also help in hormone regulation, and their dysfunction can cause conditions like acne and hair loss.
research Effect of a transcriptional inactive or absent vitamin D receptor on beta-cell function and glucose homeostasis in mice
Mice without active or present vitamin D receptors maintain normal blood sugar control and islet gene expression when calcium levels are normal.
research Utilizing the hair follicle to dissect the regulation and autocrine/paracrine activities of prolactin in humans
Human scalp hair follicles can be used to study how prolactin affects hair growth and cell death.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Pathophysiology of the Burn Scar
Burn scars heal abnormally and more research is needed to find better treatments.
research Roles of steroid receptors in the lung and COVID-19
Sex hormones may influence COVID-19 severity, with males at higher risk, and certain hormone therapies could potentially treat the virus.
research Dihydrotestosterone, and Not Testosterone, Enhances the LPS-Induced Inflammatory Cytokine Gene Expression in Human Adipocytes
Dihydrotestosterone boosts inflammation in fat cells more than testosterone.
research Protease-Activated Receptor-1 (Thrombin Receptor) Is Expressed in Mesenchymal Portions of Human Hair Follicle
PAR-1 may play a role in hair growth regulation in human hair follicles.
research Essential Role of STAT3 Signaling in Hair Follicle Homeostasis
STAT3 signaling is important for healthy skin and hair follicles, and its disruption can lead to skin conditions like atopic dermatitis.
research A Population of Radio-Resistant Macrophages in the Deep Myenteric Plexus Contributes to Postoperative Ileus Via Toll-Like Receptor 3 Signaling
Certain immune cells worsen post-surgery gut paralysis by activating a specific immune response.
research Hypothesis: Wound‐induced TLR 3 activation stimulates endogenous retinoic acid synthesis and signalling during regeneration
Activating TLR3 may help produce retinoic acid, important for tissue regeneration.
research Integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses of peripheral immune cells in patients with alopecia areata
Early intervention with JAK inhibitors may prevent alopecia areata progression.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research How Does Altered Metabolism Lead to Seizure Control? Partially Filling the Knowledge Gap
Altered metabolism can help control seizures by changing brain signaling and energy use, suggesting new treatments for epilepsy.
