research Influence of donor sources and culture media on the histo-morphological quality of human artificial skin models
EpiLife® media and younger donor age improve artificial skin model quality.
research Sex differences in arterial hypertension
Women may need different blood pressure guidelines than men for heart disease prevention.
research Wnt1a maintains characteristics of dermal papilla cells that induce mouse hair regeneration in a 3D preculture system
Wnt1a helps keep cells that can grow hair effective for potential hair loss treatments.
research A comparison of transcriptomic patterns measured in the skin of Chinese fine and coarse wool sheep breeds
Fine wool sheep have more genes for wool quality, while coarse wool sheep have more for skin and muscle traits.
research Complications in follicular unit excision hair transplantation: current evidence and practical approaches
FUE hair transplants are generally safe but require careful planning to avoid rare complications.
research The Biology of Hair Follicles
Hair follicle biology advancements may lead to better hair growth disorder treatments.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Therapeutic strategies for treating hair loss
The conclusion is that we need more effective hair loss treatments than the current ones, and these could include new drugs, gene and stem cell therapy, hormones, and scalp cooling, but they all need thorough safety testing.
research Psoriatic alopecia
Psoriasis can cause temporary or permanent hair loss.
research Priming mobilization of hair follicle stem cells triggers permanent loss of regeneration after alkylating chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes permanent hair follicle damage by triggering stem cell loss.
research Cholesterol homeostasis: Links to hair follicle biology and hair disorders
Cholesterol balance is important for hair health, and problems with it can lead to hair loss conditions.
research Alterations in Hair Follicle Morphology and Hair Shaft Production After Follicular Unit Transplantation
Hair transplants can make hair follicles larger and hair shafts thicker.
research Psychotropic Medications and the Skin
Psychotropic medications can cause skin problems but also treat some skin conditions.
research Footprints of the EADV: a meeting report from the 17th Congress of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology
The conference highlighted new dermatological treatments and emphasized early intervention and addressing conditions lacking evidence-based treatments.
research Abstracts
The document reports findings on genetic research, including ethical concerns about genome editing, improved diagnosis of mitochondrial mutations, solving inherited eye diseases, confirming gene roles in epilepsy, linking a gene to aneurysms, and identifying genes associated with age-related macular degeneration.
research Secondary Cicatricial and other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Mesenchyme governs hair follicle induction
The mesenchyme can start hair growth, but the exact signal that causes this is still unknown.
research Human epithelial hair follicle stem cells and their progeny: Current state of knowledge, the widening gap in translational research and future challenges
We need more research to better understand human hair follicle stem cells for improved treatments for hair loss and skin cancer.
research Lithium therapy associated with hidradenitis suppurativa: Case report and a review of the dermatologic side effects of lithium
Lithium therapy may cause skin problems like hidradenitis suppurativa and other side effects, which can improve after stopping the medication.
research Is seborrhea a sign of autonomic impairment in Parkinson's disease?
Seborrhea in Parkinson's disease may be linked to hormones, not autonomic impairment.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research Immune cell regulation of the hair cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Secondary cicatricial and other permanent alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research Common Dermatologic Disorders in Down Syndrome: Systematic Review
People with Down syndrome often have skin issues and need regular check-ups for early treatment.
research Engineering immune-competent hair follicle microphysiological systems: from organoid assembly to dynamic immune modelling
Hair follicle systems are being engineered to better mimic natural hair follicles for studying hair disorders and testing treatments.

research Follikelhormone
Follicle Stimulating Hormone is important for fertility.
research Benign Cutaneous Eruptions After Transplantation
Transplant patients often get skin problems, with treatments varying by condition.
