Antioxidants may help fight oxidative stress linked to autoimmune skin diseases.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research The dihydrotestosterone (DHT) hypothesis of prostate cancer and its therapeutic implications
The document suggests that targeting the hormone DHT could be a more effective treatment for prostate cancer than targeting testosterone.
research 25 Years of Epidermal Stem Cell Research
Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.

Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Alopecia areata update
Despite progress in treatment, the exact cause of Alopecia areata is still unknown.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Other Androgen Excess–Related Conditions: Can Changes in Dietary Intake Make a Difference?
Dietary changes, including weight loss and a balanced diet, are important for managing PCOS, especially in overweight women.
research Primary cicatricial alopecia: Recent advances in understanding and management
New understanding of the causes of primary cicatricial alopecia has led to better diagnosis and potential new treatments.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Normal Fur Development and Sebum Production Depends on Fatty Acid 2-Hydroxylase Expression in Sebaceous Glands
FA2H is essential for normal fur and sebum production in mice.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Alternative uses of dermoscopy in daily clinical practice: An update
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing various skin, hair, and nail disorders and can reduce the need for biopsies.
research Repurposing existing drugs for COVID-19: an endocrinology perspective
Existing drug dexamethasone may lower death risk in severe COVID-19 cases; more research needed for other drugs.
research Reconstructed human skin shows epidermal invagination towards integrated neopapillae indicating early hair follicle formation in vitro
The experiment showed that human skin grown in the lab started to form early hair structures when special cell clusters were added.
research Adipose stem cells isolated from diabetic mice improve cutaneous wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice
Fat stem cells from diabetic mice can help heal skin wounds in other diabetic mice.
research MicroRNA in skin diseases
Certain microRNAs are linked to various skin diseases and could be used to diagnose and treat these conditions.
research Comparative study on seasonal hair follicle cycling by analysis of the transcriptomes from cashmere and milk goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Thyroid diseases and skin autoimmunity
Thyroid diseases may contribute to autoimmune skin diseases, and more research is needed on their relationship.
research Age-dependent endocrine disorders involved in the pathogenesis of refractory acne in women
Hormonal imbalances, often indicating conditions like PCOS, are common in women with hard-to-treat acne, and a treatment approach addressing these imbalances may be needed.
research Quantifying Alopecia Areata via Texture Analysis to Automate the SALT Score Computation
Researchers created a fast, accurate computer program to measure hair loss in alopecia areata patients.
research Annurca Apple Polyphenols Ignite Keratin Production in Hair Follicles by Inhibiting the Pentose Phosphate Pathway and Amino Acid Oxidation
Annurca apple extract promotes hair growth by changing hair follicle metabolism to boost keratin production.
research Diagnosing Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency
Mild essential fatty acid deficiency can cause health issues and is worsened by low-fat diets.
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.
