A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research Maintaining Inducibility of Dermal Follicle Cells on Silk Fibroin/Sodium Alginate Scaffold for Enhanced Hair Follicle Regeneration
Scaffold improves hair growth potential.
research The role of hair follicles and Edar signalling in cutaneous wound healing
Activating the Eda/Edar pathway improves wound healing by enhancing hair follicle growth.
research Functional stem-cell based tissue engineered vascular grafts for high-risk donor populations
Diabetic patients' stem cells make vascular grafts more prone to clots, but new methods may improve grafts.
research Immunopathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecia
Hair loss in Lichen Planopilaris is caused by immune system issues damaging hair follicles and stem cells.
research 7. Surgery and Laser
Lasers are effective for some skin conditions but can cause side effects like scarring and pigment changes; careful selection is important, and botulinum toxin type A is successful in reducing sweat in palmar hyperhidrosis.
research Immunologic findings in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA may be caused by both hair traction and an immune response.
research Skin shedding and tissue regeneration in African spiny mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Skin wound healing in humans and mice: Challenges in translational research
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 Ultrafast Mid-IR Laser Scalpel: Protein Signals of the Fundamental Limits to Minimally Invasive Surgery
The PIRL laser cuts tissue with less damage and scarring than traditional methods.
research Development of a Chitosan Nanofibrillar Scaffold for Skin Repair and Regeneration
Chitosan nanofiber scaffolds improve skin healing and are promising for wound treatment.
research Chapter 6 Fetal Skin Wound Healing
Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.
research Air Pollution, Autophagy, and Skin Aging: Impact of Particulate Matter (PM10) on Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Air pollution (PM10) increases skin inflammation and aging by reducing collagen and may trigger a repair response in skin cells.
research Effect of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) Nanofiber Matrices Cocultured With Hair Follicular Epithelial and Dermal Cells for Biological Wound Dressing
PHBV nanofiber matrices help wounds heal faster when used with hair follicle cells.
research Microneedling for the treatment of hair loss?
Microneedling can help stimulate hair growth, especially when used with other treatments, but it's not better than existing therapies.
research The repairing of full-thickness skin deficiency and its biological mechanism using decellularized human amniotic membrane as the wound dressing
Human amniotic membrane helps heal skin wounds faster and with less scarring.
research WISP-1 induced by mechanical stress contributes to fibrosis and hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum through Hedgehog-Gli1 signaling
Targeting Hedgehog signaling may help treat ligamentum flavum fibrosis.
research Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans in a family
KFSD is a genetic disorder causing hair loss and skin issues, with no effective treatment.
research Secondary cicatricial and other permanent alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research Increment of growth factors in mouse skin treated with non-thermal plasma
Non-thermal plasma treatment makes mouse skin thicker and increases growth factors without harming the tissue.
research Advances in medical polyesters for vascular tissue engineering
Polyesters show promise for repairing damaged blood vessels.
research Stereocontrolled synthesis of all eight stereoisomers of the putative anti-androgen cyoctol
Scientists made all eight versions of a compound called cyoctol, but found it's not an anti-androgen and it fully breaks down in the skin.
research Regeneration of rete ridges in Lanyu pig ( Sus scrofa ): Insights for human skin wound healing
Lanyu pigs show that partial-thickness wounds can partially regenerate important skin structures, which may help improve human skin healing.
research Androgen Receptor Actions Modify Skin Structure and Chemical Carcinogen-induced Skin Cancer Susceptibility in Mice
Androgen receptor inactivation delays skin cancer onset and reduces incidence in mice, with gender differences in susceptibility.
research Homo- and heteropolymer self-assembly of recombinant trichocytic keratins
Recombinant keratins can form useful structures for medical applications, overcoming natural keratin limitations.
research Trichoblastoma with sebaceous and sweat gland differentiation
A rare benign skin tumor showed unusual features of sebaceous and sweat glands, important for correct diagnosis.
research Bubble hair – a possible explanation for its distribution
Using a blow dryer in a certain way can cause localized hair damage with bubble formation inside the hair.
research Rice bran mineral extract increases the expression of anagen-related molecules in human dermal papilla through wnt/catenin pathway
Rice bran mineral extract may help promote hair growth and prevent hair loss.
