research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Skin melanocytes: biology and development
The paper concludes that understanding melanocyte development can help in insights into skin diseases and melanoma diversity.
research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research The role of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b in skin homeostasis and cancer development
Fgfr2b helps maintain healthy skin and prevent cancer.
research FGF Family: From Drug Development to Clinical Application
FGF signaling is a promising target for developing treatments for wounds, metabolic diseases, and cancer.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Growth factors specifically alter hair follicle cell proliferation and collagenolytic activity alone or in combination
Growth factors can either promote or inhibit hair follicle cell growth and collagen breakdown.
research Increased Androgen Binding Capacity in Sebaceous Glands in Scalp of Male-pattern Baldness
Men with male-pattern baldness have more androgen receptors in their scalp's oil glands, which may contribute to hair loss.
research Injectable tissue adhesive composite hydrogel with fibroblasts for treating skin defects
The hydrogel helps heal skin injuries by promoting blood vessel and hair growth.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Fibroblast Growth Factor-9 Enhances M2 Macrophage Differentiation and Attenuates Adverse Cardiac Remodeling in the Infarcted Diabetic Heart
Fibroblast Growth Factor-9 (FGF-9) can help improve heart function in diabetic mice after a heart attack by reducing inflammation and harmful changes to the heart's structure.
research Minoxidil exerts different inhibitory effects on gene expression of lysyl hydroxylase 1, 2, and 3: Implications for collagen cross-linking and treatment of fibrosis
Minoxidil affects collagen-related genes, potentially helping treat fibrosis.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Fibromodulin reduces scar formation in adult cutaneous wounds by eliciting a fetal-like phenotype
Fibromodulin treatment helps reduce scarring and improves wound healing by making it more like fetal healing.
research Fibromodulin-Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors during Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research Differential effects of melatonin as a broad range UV-damage preventive dermato-endocrine regulator
Melatonin protects skin against UV damage by regulating various cellular processes.
research Improved cutaneous wound healing after intraperitoneal injection of alpha‐melanocyte‐stimulating hormone
Injecting alpha-melanocyte-stimulating hormone in mice improved skin healing and reduced scarring.
research Getting to the Core of the Dermal Papilla
The document concludes that understanding dermal papilla cells is key to improving hair regeneration treatments.
