research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
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 Methods for the isolation and 3D culture of dermal papilla cells from human hair follicles
The document describes a way to isolate and grow human hair follicle cells in 3D to help study hair growth.
research Spontaneous tumour regression in keratoacanthomas is driven by Wnt/retinoic acid signalling cross-talk
Skin tumor regression is helped by retinoic acid signaling blocking Wnt signaling.
research Skin wounds in the MRL/MPJ mouse heal with scar
MRL/MpJ mice's skin wounds heal with scars, unlike their ear wounds which can regenerate.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Lipid peroxides induce early onset of catagen phase in murine hair cycles
Lipid peroxides can cause early hair loss by damaging hair follicles.
research SCALP HAIR CHARACTERISTICS IN THE NEWBORN INFANT
Assessing newborn scalp hair can reveal important health information.
research Clinical application of 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, effectively treat BPH, male baldness, and hirsutism, with potential for acne and prostate cancer prevention.
research Alleviation of Multidrug Resistance by Flavonoid and Non-Flavonoid Compounds in Breast, Lung, Colorectal and Prostate Cancer
Some natural compounds may help overcome drug resistance in certain cancers, but more research is needed.
research α3β1-integrin regulates hair follicle but not interfollicular morphogenesis in adult epidermis
α3β1-integrin is crucial for maintaining normal hair follicle shape and function but not needed for the development of the surrounding skin.
research The non-neuronal and nonmuscular effects of botulinum toxin: an opportunity for a deadly molecule to treat disease in the skin and beyond
Botulinum toxin has potential for treating various skin conditions and improving wound healing.
research The enhancement of dermal papilla cell aggregation by extracellular matrix proteins through effects on cell–substratum adhesivity and cell motility
Skin cell clumping for hair growth is improved by a protein called fibronectin, which helps cells stick and move better.
research Mechanisms and cell lineages in lymphatic vascular development
Lymphatic vessels develop from various cell types and mechanisms, not just veins.
research To grow or not to grow: Hair morphogenesis and human genetic hair disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research The Role of Adipocytes in Tissue Regeneration and Stem Cell Niches
Fat cells are important for tissue repair and stem cell support in various body parts.
research Targeted delivery of extracellular vesicles: the mechanisms, techniques and therapeutic applications
Engineered extracellular vesicles show promise for targeted therapy but need more research for clinical use.
research A wearable and stretchable dual-wavelength LED device for home care of chronic infected wounds
A new wearable LED device helps heal chronic infected wounds at home.
research Congenital hair loss disorders: Rare, but not too rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Differences in Expression of Specific Biomarkers Distinguish Human Beard from Scalp Dermal Papilla Cells
Beard and scalp hair cells have different gene expressions, which may affect beard growth characteristics.
research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
research A splice variant in KRT71 is associated with curly coat phenotype of Selkirk Rex cats
A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.
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 Increased lactate dehydrogenase activity is dispensable in squamous carcinoma cells of origin
High lactate dehydrogenase activity is not necessary for the growth of squamous cell carcinoma.
research Madarosis: A marker of many Maladies
Losing eyelashes or eyebrows can be a sign of many different health problems and needs a careful approach to treat effectively.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Glutamate transporter Slc1a3 mediates inter‐niche stem cell activation during skin growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
