960-990 / 1000+ resultsresearch Cutaneous manifestations of dabrafenib (GSK2118436): a selective inhibitor of mutant BRAF in patients with metastatic melanoma
Dabrafenib can cause skin growths and sometimes low-grade skin cancer.
research Platelet-rich plasma accelerates skin wound healing by promoting re-epithelialization
Platelet-rich plasma speeds up skin wound healing.
research Structure and function of skin, hair and nails
Understanding skin's structure and function is crucial for grasping skin health and diseases.
research Low‐level laser (light) therapy (LLLT) for treatment of hair loss
Low-Level Laser Therapy is effective and safe for hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Matriptase: Potent Proteolysis on the Cell Surface
Matriptase is crucial for skin, hair, and immune cell health, and its imbalance can lead to cancer.
research BMP signaling in the control of skin development and hair follicle growth
BMP signaling is crucial for skin and hair growth.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research What does the concept of the stem cell niche really mean today?
Stem cell niches support, regulate, and coordinate stem cell functions.
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 Hairy tale of signaling in hair follicle development and cycling
Hair growth and development are controlled by specific signaling pathways.
research Beyond Wavy Hairs
EGFR signaling is crucial for skin and hair health, and targeting it could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research p63 expression in normal skin and usual cutaneous carcinomas
p63 may influence skin cancer development and cell differentiation.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Molecular biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Inactivation of the Vitamin D Receptor Enhances Susceptibility of Murine Skin to UV-Induced Tumorigenesis
Mice without the vitamin D receptor are more prone to UV-induced skin tumors.
research Overexpression of insulin-like growth factor-1 induces hyperplasia, dermal abnormalities, and spontaneous tumor formation in transgenic mice
Overexpressing IGF-1 in mice leads to skin abnormalities and tumors.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Foxc1 reinforces quiescence in self-renewing hair follicle stem cells
Foxc1 helps keep hair follicle stem cells inactive, preventing hair loss.
research Corticotropin releasing hormone and the skin
CRH in the skin acts like the body's stress response system, affecting cell behavior and immune activity.
research Deregulated expression of E2F1 induces hyperplasia and cooperates with ras in skin tumor development
Overexpression of E2F1 can lead to skin tumors and disrupt hair growth.
research Hyaluronate Fragments Reverse Skin Atrophy by a CD44-Dependent Mechanism
Hyaluronate fragments can help reverse skin thinning by working with the CD44 receptor.
