research 5α-Reductase activity in the human hair follicle concentrates in the dermal papilla
The enzyme that changes testosterone to a stronger form is mostly found in the part of the hair follicle called the dermal papilla.
research Epidermal Differentiation Complex: A Review on Its Epigenetic Regulation and Potential Drug Targets.
Understanding how EDC genes are regulated can help develop better drugs for skin diseases.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Adrenal Disorders and the Paediatric Brain: Pathophysiological Considerations and Clinical Implications
Adrenal disorders can cause lasting brain and behavior issues in children.
research Positive lymphocyte transformation test in a patient with allergic contact dermatitis of the scalp after short-term use of topical minoxidil solution
Patient had scalp allergy from minoxidil; test helped identify cause and suggest alternative treatments.
research De novo single-nucleotide and copy number variation in discordant monozygotic twins reveals disease-related genes
The research found genetic differences in identical twins that could explain why one twin has a disease while the other does not.
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 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 The bright side of fibroblasts: molecular signature and regenerative cues in major organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research A review of adipocyte lineage cells and dermal papilla cells in hair follicle regeneration
Cell-based therapies using dermal papilla cells and adipocyte lineage cells show potential for hair regeneration.
research CD98hc (SLC3A2) regulation of skin homeostasis wanes with age
CD98hc's role in skin health decreases with age.
research Effects of PNU157706, a Dual 5α-Reductase Inhibitor, on Rat Epididymal Sperm Maturation and Fertility1
PNU157706 reduced rat sperm movement and fertility without affecting offspring health.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research FOXN1 Deficiency: from the Discovery to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
New treatments for immune disorders caused by FOXN1 deficiency are promising.
research Dermatoses of pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause specific skin conditions that need correct diagnosis and treatment to protect both mother and baby.
research Transformation of amnion epithelium into skin and hair follicles
Mouse amnion can turn into skin and hair follicles with help from certain cells and factors.
research The Role of Pannexin 3 in Bone Biology
Pannexin 3 is important for bone formation and the development of bone cells.
research Epidermal Polarity Genes in Health and Disease
Disruptions in epidermal polarity genes can lead to skin diseases.
research Alopecia in Crash Dieters
Crash dieting can cause hair loss due to severe calorie restriction.
research Blimp1+ cells generate functional mouse sebaceous gland organoids in vitro
Single Blimp1+ cells can create functional sebaceous gland organoids in the lab.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research Smad1 and 5 but Not Smad8 Establish Stem Cell Quiescence Which Is Critical to Transform the Premature Hair Follicle During Morphogenesis Toward the Postnatal State
Smad1 and Smad5 are essential for hair follicle development and stem cell sleepiness.
research Stem Cell-Based Tissue Engineering for the Treatment of Burn Wounds: A Systematic Review of Preclinical Studies
Stem cell treatments may improve burn wound healing.
research The Role of Immature and Mature Adipocytes in Hair Cycling
Both immature and mature fat cells are important for hair growth cycles, with immature cells promoting growth and mature cells possibly inhibiting it.
research Hair follicle stem cell proliferation, Akt and Wnt signaling activation in TPA-induced hair regeneration
TPA promotes hair growth by increasing stem cell activity and activating specific cell signals.
research A novel therapeutic paradigm for patients with extensive alopecia areata
New treatments targeting immune pathways show promise for severe hair loss but need more research for safety and effectiveness.
research Ectodysplasin research—Where to next?
Future research on ectodysplasin should explore its role in diseases, stem cells, and evolution, and continue developing treatments for genetic disorders like hypohidrotic ectodermal dysplasia.
research Polyamines and hair: a couple in search of perfection
Polyamines are important for hair growth, but more research is needed to understand their functions and treatment potential.
