research Development, Structure, and Keratin Expression in C57BL/6J Mouse Eccrine Glands
The study found that mouse sweat glands develop before birth, mature after birth, and have specific keratin patterns.
research Role of β-Catenin Activation Levels and Fluctuations in Controlling Cell Fate
Proper control of β-catenin activity is crucial for development and preventing diseases like cancer.
research The Hair Follicle
Dogs could be good models for studying human hair growth and hair loss.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Dermatological Manifestations of Down's Syndrome
People with Down's syndrome often have more skin problems due to a weak immune system.
research Engineering the niche for hair regeneration — A critical review
Further research is needed to improve hair regeneration using stem cells and nanomaterials.
research Inducing hair follicle neogenesis with secreted proteins enriched in embryonic skin
Three specific proteins can turn adult skin cells into hair-growing cells, suggesting a new hair loss treatment.
research Developing stratified epithelia: lessons from the epidermis and thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Self‐organizing hair peg‐like structures from dissociated skin progenitor cells: New insights for human hair follicle organoid engineering and Turing patterning in an asymmetric morphogenetic field
Researchers created early-stage hair-like structures from skin cells, showing how these cells can self-organize, but more is needed for complete hair growth.
research Quality of life measurement in alopecia areata. Position statement of the European Academy of Dermatology and Venereology Task Force on Quality of Life and Patient Oriented Outcomes
Use specific tools to measure quality of life in alopecia areata patients and improve future treatments.
research Biallelic HEPHL1 variants impair ferroxidase activity and cause an abnormal hair phenotype
Mutations in the HEPHL1 gene cause abnormal hair and cognitive issues.
research Thyroid diseases and skin autoimmunity
Thyroid diseases may contribute to autoimmune skin diseases, and more research is needed on their relationship.
research Alopecia Areata
The document concludes that ongoing research using animal models is crucial for better understanding and treating Alopecia Areata.
research Hair follicle germs containing vascular endothelial cells for hair regenerative medicine
Adding human blood vessel cells to hair follicle germs may improve hair growth and quality.
research Cicatricial alopecia
Permanent hair loss from cicatricial alopecia is treated by reducing inflammation and managing symptoms, but regrowth in scarred areas is unlikely.
research Effect of adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium on the proliferation and migration of B16 melanoma cells
Adipose-derived stem cell-conditioned medium can reduce melanoma cell growth and spread.
research Porokeratotic adnexal ostial naevus: review on the entity and therapeutic approach
Laser treatments are the most effective for porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus.
research Recombinant human hepatitis B vaccine initiating alopecia areata: testing the hypothesis using the C3H/HeJ mouse model
The hepatitis B vaccine did not cause hair loss in the tested mice.
research Clinical Case Notes. Tamoxifen optic neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research Alopecia.
The document concludes that correct diagnosis of alopecia types is crucial, scalp biopsies are important, and more research is needed.
research Insights into the role of the Wnt signaling pathway in the regeneration of animal model systems
The Wnt signaling pathway is crucial for regeneration and could help advance human medicine.
research Induction of Skin-Derived Precursor Cells from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists made skin stem cells from other human cells with over 97% efficiency, which could help treat skin conditions.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
research Alopecia in Epidermolysis Bullosa
The document suggests that certain protein deficiencies and scalp blistering in Epidermolysis Bullosa may cause hair loss.
research Clinical Approach to the Patient With Alopecia
Most hair loss disorders can be accurately diagnosed and treated in an outpatient setting.
