research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Preparation of hair beads and hair follicle germs for regenerative medicine
Researchers developed a method to grow hair follicles using special beads that could help with hair loss treatment.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Novel skin phenotypes revealed by a genome-wide mouse reverse genetic screen
The research identified new skin traits in mice, some linked to human skin conditions.
research The Ludwig pattern of androgenetic alopecia is due to a hierarchy of androgen sensitivity within follicular units that leads to selective miniaturization and a reduction in the number of terminal hairs per follicular unit
Ludwig pattern hair loss in women results from varying sensitivity in hair follicles, causing fewer visible hairs.
research Reflections on how wound healing-promoting effects of the hair follicle can be translated into clinical practice
Hair follicles can help wounds heal faster and this knowledge could be used to treat chronic skin ulcers, with a potential use of a special stem cell hydrogel to enhance healing.
research The Role of Stem Cells in Cutaneous Wound Healing: What Do We Really Know?
Stem cells have great potential for improving wound healing, but more research is needed to find the best types and ways to use them.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cells in the pigmentation of skin and its appendages: Biological patterning and therapeutic potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Procyanidin B-2, extracted from apples, promotes hair growth: a laboratory study
Apple extract called procyanidin B-2 was found to greatly increase hair growth.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Two Hypomorphic Alleles of Mouse Ass1 as a New Animal Model of Citrullinemia Type I and Other Hyperammonemic Syndromes
Researchers created a new mouse model for studying Citrullinemia Type I and similar conditions, showing symptoms and treatment responses like those in humans.
research The Dynamic Duo: Niche/Stem Cell Interdependency
Stem cells and their surrounding environment in hair follicles work closely together, affecting hair growth and having implications for cancer and tissue regeneration.
research Intermediate hair follicles: a new more clinically relevant model for hair growth investigations
Intermediate hair follicles are a better model for studying hair growth and testing hair loss treatments.
research Combined Deletion of the Vitamin D Receptor and Calcium-Sensing Receptor Delays Wound Re-epithelialization
Removing vitamin D and calcium receptors in mice skin cells slows down skin wound healing.
research Advanced therapies of skin injuries
New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.
research Pre-Clinical Cell-Based Therapy for Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency
Cell-based therapies show promise for treating Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency but need more research.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Clinical management of cutaneous adverse events in patients on targeted anticancer therapies and immunotherapies: a national consensus statement by the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology
Spanish experts provided guidelines for treating skin side effects in cancer patients on new therapies, stressing early action and teamwork.
research Activation of β-Catenin Signaling in CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla Cells Drives Postnatal Hair Growth
Activating β-catenin in certain skin cells speeds up hair growth in mice.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Roles of GasderminA3 in Catagen–Telogen Transition During Hair Cycling
GasderminA3 is important for normal hair cycle transitions by controlling Wnt signaling.
research A Case of Cicatricial Alopecia Associated with Erlotinib
Erlotinib can cause hair loss as a side effect.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research An update of the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia: What does the current evidence tell us?
The current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia involves immune, genetic, hormonal factors, and possibly environmental triggers, but more research is needed for effective treatments.
