research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease
Fat cells are important for healthy skin, hair growth, and healing, and changes in these cells can affect skin conditions and aging.
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
research Multi-layered environmental regulation on the homeostasis of stem cells: The saga of hair growth and alopecia
Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.
research Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior
Hair growth is influenced by various body and external factors, and neighboring hairs communicate to synchronize regeneration.
research Shedding light on cashmere goat hair follicle biology: from morphology analyses to transcriptomic landascape
The research found genes that change during cashmere goat hair growth and could help determine the best time to harvest cashmere.
research Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Exosomes Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicle Growth by Activating Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
Substances from fat-derived stem cells can promote hair growth and counteract hormone-related hair loss by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Intracrine androgen biosynthesis, metabolism and action revisited
The document concludes that blocking the internal pathways that create androgens might help treat cancers that depend on sex hormones.
research Gender-linked differences in human skin
Male and female skin differ in many ways, which could lead to gender-specific skin treatments.
research Clinical and metabolic implications of obesity in prostate cancer: is testosterone a missing link?
Higher BMI and lower testosterone are linked to more aggressive prostate cancer.
research Corticotropin-releasing hormone: An autocrine hormone that promotes lipogenesis in human sebocytes
CRH promotes fat production in skin cells, affecting conditions like acne.
research GLP-1 Receptor Agonists: Beyond Their Pancreatic Effects
GLP-1 receptor agonists, like Dulaglutide, Liraglutide, and Semaglutide, have potential benefits beyond the pancreas, including neuroprotection, pain suppression, cardiovascular protection, obesity management, and cancer treatment, but there are concerns about pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer risks.
research The metabolic syndrome- associated small G protein ARL15 plays a role in adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin secretion
ARL15 is important for fat cell development and the release of the hormone adiponectin.
research The interaction of hydrocortisone and thyroxine during fetal adipose tissue differentiation: CCAAT enhancing binding protein expression and capillary cytodifferentiation.
Glucocorticoids and thyroid hormones together are essential for fetal fat development.
research Minireview: vitamin D receptor: new assignments for an already busy receptor. - eScholarship
The vitamin D receptor has many roles in the body beyond managing calcium, affecting the immune system, hair growth, muscles, fat, bone marrow, and cancer cells.
research Serum irisin level in patients with acne vulgaris
Patients with acne vulgaris have lower serum irisin levels.
research Body composition changes and inhibition of fat development in vivo implicates androgen in regulation of stem cell lineage allocation
Androgen is important in controlling stem cell differentiation, reducing fat development, and increasing lean mass.
research Emerging nonmetabolic functions of skin fat
Skin fat has important roles in hair growth, skin repair, immune defense, and aging, and could be targeted for skin and hair treatments.
research Bone vs. fat: Embryonic origin of progenitors determines response to androgen in adipocytes and osteoblasts
Androgens affect bone and fat cell development differently based on the cells' embryonic origin.
research Gender-Affirming Hormone Therapy for Transgender Females
Hormone therapy for transgender females increases the risk of blood clots and requires careful dosing, monitoring, and lifelong management.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons

research Isolation and Characterization of a Fetal-Maternal Microchimeric Stem Cell Population in Maternal Hair Follicles Long after Parturition
Fetal-maternal stem cells in a mother's hair can help with tissue repair and regeneration long after childbirth.
research Mesotherapy for local fat reduction
Mesotherapy might help reduce fat in specific areas for those close to their ideal weight, but more research and care are needed to ensure safety.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
