Four new FGF5 gene variants cause long hair in dogs.
research Discovery of a novel and highly selective JAK3 inhibitor as a potent hair growth promoter
MJ04, a new compound, effectively promotes hair growth and is a potential topical treatment for hair loss.
research 532 Unexpected expression of hemoglobin α as an endogenous antioxidant in epidermal keratinocytes
Hemoglobin α acts as an antioxidant in skin cells, especially protecting hair follicle stem cells from UV damage.
research The effect of glycyrrhizic acid and aqueous licorice extract on hair growth retardation : in vitro mechanistic and efficacy studies in human
Glycyrrhizic acid and licorice extract can significantly reduce unwanted hair growth.
research News in brief
Scientists found key proteins and genes that affect skin and hair health, and identified potential new treatments for hair loss, skin disorders, and wound healing.
research Composition for enhancing hair growth.
The composition helps hair growth and prevents baldness.
research Clinical Snippets
Topical Imiquimod may fight vascular tumors by affecting blood vessels or the immune system, low iron might be linked to some hair loss, removing the top skin layer helps vitamin C get in, genetic testing helps diagnose skin conditions, and too much iron could worsen skin inflammation.
research A Novel Point Mutation in the Ligand-Binding Domain (LBD) of the Human Glucocorticoid Receptor (hGR) Causing Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance: The Importance of the C Terminus of hGR LBD in Conferring Transactivational Activity
A new mutation in the human glucocorticoid receptor reduces its function and causes resistance to glucocorticoids.
research Inborn Errors of Biotin Metabolism
Two enzyme defects in biotin metabolism cause severe skin, hair, and metabolic issues.
research An epistatic effect of KRT25 on SP6 is involved in curly coat in horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.
research 265 Loss of Langerhans cells in scar lesion of lichen planopilaris is caused by downregulation of integrin αvβ6 in the epidermal keratinocytes
Scarred skin in lichen planopilaris loses immune cells due to a decrease in a specific protein in skin cells.
research Lgr5 marks cycling, yet long-lived, hair follicle stem cells
Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Discovery of Nonsteroidal Androgens
Scientists found new nonsteroidal compounds that can act like natural male hormones and might help treat male fertility and hormone issues.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research A Subset of TREM2+ Dermal Macrophages Secretes Oncostatin M to Maintain Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Inhibit Hair Growth
Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.
research Nonsteroidal inhibitors of human type I steroid 5-.alpha.-reductase
New compounds called benzoquinolinones may treat conditions linked to excess DHT.
research Hypotensive Activity and Toxicology of Constituents from Bombax ceiba Stem Bark.
Bombax ceiba stem bark extracts can lower blood pressure, but high doses can be toxic and lethal.
research Tcf3 promotes cell migration and wound repair through regulation of lipocalin 2
Tcf3 helps cells move and heal wounds by controlling lipocalin 2.
research Brg1 Governs a Positive Feedback Circuit in the Hair Follicle for Tissue Regeneration and Repair
Brg1 is crucial for hair growth and skin repair by maintaining stem cells and promoting regeneration.
research Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor and proglucagon expression in mouse skin
Mice skin has components that could help with hair growth and might be used for diabetes treatment.
