research Epidermal keratinocyte stem cells: their maintenance and regulation
Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.
research Epidermal stem cell fate: what can we learn from embryonic stem cells?
Embryonic and adult stem cells are valuable for improving skin grafts and cell therapy.
research Quorum sensing and other collective regenerative behavior in organ populations
Organs like hair follicles can renew themselves in complex ways, adapting to different needs and environments.
research Transcriptional Control of Epidermal Stem Cells
Certain transcription factors are key in controlling skin stem cell behavior and could impact future treatments for skin repair and hair loss.
research The incidental pore: CaV1.2 and stem cell activation in quiescent hair follicles
CaV1.2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells without calcium flux.
research Linking Morphogen and Chromatin in the Hair Follicle
Brg1 is crucial for keeping hair follicle stem cells and repairing skin, working with the Sonic Hedgehog pathway to promote hair growth.
research Optical coherence tomography examination of hair
OCT can effectively examine and reveal details about human hair and scalp conditions.
research Dental cell type atlas reveals stem and differentiated cell types in mouse and human teeth
The research identified various cell types in mouse and human teeth, which could help in developing dental regenerative treatments.
research Control of hair follicle cell fate by underlying mesenchyme through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 regulatory axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
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 Chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Many patients find hair loss from chemotherapy very distressing, and while treatments like minoxidil and scalp cooling may help, there is no sure way to prevent it.
research Expression of Foxi3 is regulated by ectodysplasin in skin appendage placodes
Foxi3 expression in developing teeth and hair is controlled by the ectodysplasin pathway.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Tight Junction barriers in human hair follicles – role of claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research Platelet-derived growth factor signaling modulates adult hair follicle dermal stem cell maintenance and self-renewal
PDGF signaling is crucial for maintaining and renewing hair follicle stem cells, which could help treat hair loss.
research Lack of Collagen VI Promotes Wound-Induced Hair Growth
Mice without collagen VI have slower hair growth normally but faster regrowth after injury.
research Beyond goosebumps: Does the arrector pili muscle have a role in hair loss?
The arrector pili muscle might play a role in hair loss and needs more research to understand its impact.
research A bald statement - Current approaches to manipulate miniaturisation focus only on promoting hair growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
Understanding glycans and enzymes that alter them is key to controlling hair growth.
research The mRNA for Protease Nexin-1 is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and its Level is Affected by Androgen
Human skin cells contain Protease Nexin-1, and male hormones can decrease its levels, potentially affecting hair growth.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research Therapeutic Androgen Receptor Ligands
Androgens and SARMs play a role in body mass, frailty, skin health, and hair growth, and are used in treating prostate cancer, acne, and hair loss, with potential for new uses and improved versions in the future.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.
research Molecular elements of the regulatory control of keratin filament modulator AHF/trichohyalin in the hair follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research Analysis of the expression pattern of the carrier protein transthyretin and its receptor megalin in the human scalp skin and hair follicles: hair cycle-associated changes
The proteins transthyretin and megalin are more present in the growth phase of hair, suggesting they might affect hair health and growth.
research Hdac1 and Hdac2 regulate the quiescent state and survival of hair-follicle mesenchymal niche
Hdac1 and Hdac2 help maintain and protect the cells that control hair growth.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Engineering immune-competent hair follicle microphysiological systems: from organoid assembly to dynamic immune modelling
Hair follicle systems are being engineered to better mimic natural hair follicles for studying hair disorders and testing treatments.
