Vitamin D and calcium are important for quick and effective skin wound healing.
research Single-Cell Transcriptomics Reveals the Molecular Anatomy of Sheep Hair Follicle Heterogeneity and Wool Curvature
The research identified genes that explain why some sheep have curly wool and others have straight wool.
research Targeted Overexpression of the Angiogenesis Inhibitor Thrombospondin-1 in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Prevents Ultraviolet-B-Induced Angiogenesis and Cutaneous Photo-Damage
Overexpressing thrombospondin-1 in mice skin prevents UVB-induced skin damage.
research Non-Edg family LPA receptors: the cutting edge of LPA research
New LPA receptors (LPA4, LPA5, LPA6) have diverse roles in the body.
research Hair growth stimulated by conditioned medium of adipose-derived stem cells is enhanced by hypoxia: evidence of increased growth factor secretion
Low oxygen conditions increase the hair-growing effects of substances from fat-derived stem cells by boosting growth factor release.
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 Male androgenetic alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research Causal relationship between inflammatory cytokines and polycystic ovary syndrome: a bidirectional mendelian randomization study
Certain inflammatory factors may increase or decrease the risk of developing PCOS.
research Efficacy of an agonist ofα-MSH, the palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20, in hair pigmentation
Palmitoyl tetrapeptide-20 may help reduce hair greying and increase melanin production.
research Pathomechanism of androgenetic alopecia and new treatment
Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 and Hair Biology: Bridging Basic Science and Therapeutic Applications
FGF-7 helps hair grow by activating hair follicles and is a promising target for hair loss treatments.
research Cutaneous Manifestations of Chronic Kidney Disease: A Narrative Review
Chronic kidney disease can cause skin issues that need early recognition and combined treatment for better outcomes.
research Crosstalk between endothelial cells and dermal papilla entails hair regeneration and angiogenesis during aging
Communication between blood vessel and hair follicle cells decreases with age, affecting hair growth and blood vessel formation.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research Editors' Picks
Scientists found gene mutations that affect hair loss, skin stem cells, and skin disorders, and identified drugs that may help treat blood vessel and skin conditions.
research Activation of Wnt Signaling in Hematopoietic Regeneration
Wnt10b helps blood stem cells grow after injury.
research Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Lean Women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
PCOS in lean women is a serious health condition with implications beyond fertility, affecting metabolism and increasing cardiovascular disease risk.
research Redefining hormone resistance in prostate cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research Oral medications for central serous chorioretinopathy: a literature review
Some oral medications may help treat central serous chorioretinopathy, especially eplerenone, but more research is needed.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Hair growth-promoting effect of Geranium sibiricum extract in human dermal papilla cells and C57BL/6 mice
Geranium sibiricum extract helps hair grow and is more effective than minoxidil but can be toxic in high concentrations.
research Montagna Symposium 2013—Light and Skin: How Light Sustains, Damages, Treats, Images and Modifies Skin Biology
