research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research TGF-β family signaling in stem cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Stem cell secretome as a new booster for regenerative medicine
Stem cells help repair tissue mainly by releasing beneficial substances, not by replacing damaged cells.
research Increased Vibrissa Growth in Transgenic Mice Expressing Insulin-like Growth Factor 1
IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research Functional ectodermal organ regeneration as the next generation of organ replacement therapy
The document concludes that regenerating functional ectodermal organs like teeth and hair is promising for future therapies.
research SUMMARIES OF PAPERS
The document concludes that secondary syphilis cases are increasing and often misdiagnosed, pityriasis rubra pilaris can be distinguished from psoriasis by skin cell features, and different skin layers produce specific components during skin repair.
research Integrative Whole-Transcriptome Sequencing Analysis of Skin Tissues with Different Coat Types in Cashmere Goats Across Stages of Hair Follicle Development
The study found that different genes are active in cashmere goats' hair growth stages, which can help improve cashmere production.
research The Role of Androgens in Health and Disease in Females: A Narratıve Review
Androgens affect many aspects of female health, and more research is needed to understand their roles and treatment potential.
research EDA and EDAR expression at different stages of hair follicle development in cashmere goats and effects on expression of related genes
EDA and EDAR are important for hair follicle development in cashmere goats and affect other related genes.
research Skin structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Non-apoptotic role for caspase-7 in hair follicles and the surrounding tissue
Caspase-7 has functions in skin and hair that are not related to cell death.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Bioengineering Skin Constructs
Future research should focus on making bioengineered skin that completely restores all skin functions.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
