The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
research Effect of minoxidil on proliferation and apoptosis in dermal papilla cells of human hair follicle
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by increasing cell production and survival.
research PDGF isoforms induce and maintain anagen phase of murine hair follicles
PDGF isoforms can promote and sustain hair growth.
research The role of androgen and androgen receptor in skin-related disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa treated with finasteride
Finasteride effectively treats hidradenitis suppurativa for most patients.
research Hair growth and rejuvenation: An overview

research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research Multi-layered environmental regulation on the homeostasis of stem cells: The saga of hair growth and alopecia
Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Stem cell therapy as a novel therapeutic intervention for resistant cases of alopecia areata and androgenetic alopecia
Stem cell therapy may help treat tough hair loss cases.
research The advantages of hair follicle pluripotent stem cells over embryonic stem cells and induced pluripotent stem cells for regenerative medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a practical and ethical option for nerve repair in regenerative medicine.
research Inherited epidermolysis bullosa: clinical and therapeutic aspects
The document concludes that inherited epidermolysis bullosa is a challenging genetic condition requiring multidisciplinary care and new treatments.
research Efficacy of topical tofacitinib in promoting hair growth in non-scarring alopecia: possible mechanism via VEGF induction
Topical tofacitinib may grow hair better than minoxidil by increasing VEGF and reducing inflammation.
research Effect of sinapic acid on hair growth promoting in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells via Akt activation
Sinapic acid may help hair growth by activating a specific cell pathway.
research Clinical and histological study of permanent alopecia after bone marrow transplantation
Permanent hair loss after bone marrow transplant can be caused by chemotherapy or chronic graft-versus-host disease.
research Inhibitory effects of bFGF, VEGF and minoxidil on collagen synthesis by cultured hair dermal papilla cells
bFGF, VEGF, and minoxidil decrease collagen production in hair cells, possibly affecting hair growth.
research Perda pilosa por líquen plano pilar após transplante capilar: relato de dois casos e revisão da literatura
Hair transplants can lead to hair loss from lichen planopilaris, and patients should be tested and wait two years before the procedure.
research A preliminary study on topical cetirizine in the therapeutic management of androgenetic alopecia
Topical cetirizine improves hair density and thickness in androgenetic alopecia, but more research is needed.
research Síndrome do nevo de Becker
The document reports the first Brazilian case of a girl with Becker nevus syndrome, characterized by skin changes, breast underdevelopment, and scoliosis.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
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 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 Efficacy of topical latanoprost versus minoxidil and betamethasone valerate on the treatment of alopecia areata
Latanoprost works better for hair growth, and combining it with betamethasone valerate is most effective.
