research The Inflammatory Caspases-1 and -11 Mediate the Pathogenesis of Dermatitis in Sharpin-Deficient Mice
Certain proteins, caspases-1 and -11, are important in the early development of skin inflammation in mice.
research Genome-wide association study in Japanese females identifies fifteen novel skin-related trait associations
Researchers found 15 new genetic links to skin traits in Japanese women.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research Sequence-structure based phylogeny of GPCR Class A Rhodopsin receptors
The research found how GPCR Class A Rhodopsin receptors are related and suggested possible substances they interact with.
research Stem cell plasticity enables hair regeneration following Lgr5+ cell loss
Hair can regrow after certain stem cells are lost because other stem cells can take over their role.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Clinical perspectives on the age-related increase of immunosuppressive activity
Aging and chronic inflammation weaken the immune system, increasing cancer and infection risks.
research Scoping Review on the Use of Drugs Targeting JAK/STAT Pathway in Atopic Dermatitis, Vitiligo, and Alopecia Areata
Drugs targeting the JAK/STAT pathway can improve atopic dermatitis but vary in effectiveness for vitiligo and alopecia areata, with generally mild safety concerns.
research Differential Expression of miR-93 and miR-21 in Granulosa Cells and Follicular Fluid of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Associating with Different Phenotypes
The study found that certain microRNAs are higher in the cells and lower in the fluid of women with a specific type of polycystic ovary syndrome, and one microRNA could potentially help diagnose the condition.
research Benefit and risk profile of tofacitinib for the treatment of alopecia areata: a systemic review and meta‐analysis
Tofacitinib is somewhat effective for alopecia areata, but more research is needed on its safety and long-term effects.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Cannabinoids: Current and Future Options to Treat Chronic and Chemotherapy-Induced Neuropathic Pain
Cannabinoids may help treat chronic and chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Activation of Wnt Signaling in Hematopoietic Regeneration
Wnt10b helps blood stem cells grow after injury.
research Generation and characterization of rat liver stem cell lines and their engraftment in a rat model of liver failure
Researchers created rat liver stem cells that could help repair liver failure in rats and may be useful for studying human liver diseases.
research Skin physiology in microgravity: a 3-month stay aboard ISS induces dermal atrophy and affects cutaneous muscle and hair follicles cycling in mice
A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Identification of Ectodysplasin Target Genes Reveals the Involvement of Chemokines in Hair Development
Chemokine signaling is important for hair development.
research JunB defines functional and structural integrity of the epidermo-pilosebaceous unit in the skin
JunB is crucial for maintaining healthy skin and hair follicles.
research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Steroid plant hormones: Effects outside plant kingdom
Plant steroid hormones show growth, health, and medicinal benefits in various organisms, including potential for treating diseases.
research Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny during Cutaneous Wound Repair
The vitamin D receptor is essential for skin stem cells to grow, move, and become different cell types needed for skin healing.
research Hunting the genes in male‐pattern alopecia: how important are they, how close are we and what will they tell us?
Genes play a significant role in male-pattern baldness, and understanding them could lead to new treatments and insights into related health issues.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Design of a Multifunctional Biomaterial Inspired by Ancient Chinese Medicine for Hair Regeneration in Burned Skin
The new biomaterial inspired by ancient Chinese medicine effectively promotes hair growth and heals wounds in burned skin.
research Gefitinib: an adverse effects profile
Gefitinib can cause skin problems, diarrhea, and nausea, but rarely causes severe lung disease or hair loss.
research Hoxc-Dependent Mesenchymal Niche Heterogeneity Drives Regional Hair Follicle Regeneration
Hoxc genes control hair growth through Wnt signaling.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Baricitinib: From Rheumatoid Arthritis to COVID‐19
