research Genetically-manipulated adult stem cells as therapeutic agents and gene delivery vehicle for wound repair and regeneration
Genetically-altered adult stem cells can help in wound healing and are becoming crucial in regenerative medicine and drug design.
research Exclamation marks and other trichoscopic signs of chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy can cause hair changes similar to alopecia areata, which might lead to misdiagnosis.
research Melanocyte and gonad activity as potential severity modifying factors in C3H/HeJ mouse alopecia areata
Gonadal hormones significantly affect the severity of alopecia areata in mice.
research Hair loss in elderly women
Hair loss in elderly women is often caused by various factors, including hormonal changes after menopause.
research Msi2 Maintains Quiescent State of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Directly Repressing the Hh Signaling Pathway
The Msi2 protein helps keep hair follicle stem cells inactive, controlling hair growth and regeneration.
research Alopecia areata: A review
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune hair loss condition treated with corticosteroids, and histologic confirmation is the best diagnosis method.
research Study of gene expression alteration in male androgenetic alopecia: evidence of predominant molecular signalling pathways
Hair loss involves immune responses, inflammation, and disrupted signaling pathways.
research Hair follicle stem cells as a skin‐organizing signaling center during adult homeostasis
Hair follicle stem cells help maintain skin health and could improve skin replacement therapies.
research Intralesional therapy for the treatment of keratoacanthoma
Intralesional therapy for keratoacanthoma is effective and has fewer side effects than systemic treatments.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research Pro-inflammatory Vδ1+T-cells infiltrates are present in and around the hair bulbs of non-lesional and lesional alopecia areata hair follicles
Targeting Vδ1+T-cells may help treat alopecia areata.
research Extracellular vesicles from hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stromal cells: isolation, characterization and therapeutic potential for chronic wound healing
Hair follicle-derived extracellular vesicles may help heal chronic wounds as effectively as those from adipose tissue.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research ENDOXAN ALOPECIA
Endoxan often causes hair loss, which usually starts in the third week of treatment.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Planar cell polarity effector gene Intu regulates cell fate-specific differentiation of keratinocytes through the primary cilia
Intu gene is crucial for hair follicle formation by helping keratinocytes differentiate through primary cilia.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
research Plucked hair follicles from patients with chronic discoid lupus erythematosus show a disease-specific molecular signature
Plucked hair follicles can help diagnose scalp lupus.
research From basal cell carcinoma morphogenesis to the alopecia induced by hedgehog inhibitors: connecting the dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research The aetiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research What′s new in cicatricial alopecia?
New treatments and early diagnosis methods for permanent hair loss due to scar tissue are important for managing its psychological effects.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells Antagonize IFN-Induced Proinflammatory Changes and Growth Inhibition Effects via Wnt/β-Catenin and JAK/STAT Pathway in Human Outer Root Sheath Cells and Hair Follicles
Mesenchymal stem cells may help treat hair loss by improving hair cell growth and reducing inflammation.
research ACTH as first line treatment for acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis in 14 hospitalized patients
ACTH may be an effective first-line treatment for acute calcium pyrophosphate crystal arthritis.
research Changes in the sebaceous gland in patients with male pattern hair loss (androgenic alopecia)
Sebaceous glands in male pattern hair loss patients have more lobules and might cause early hair growth phase shifts.
research Hepatocyte growth factor-modified hair follicle stem cells ameliorate cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats
HGF-modified hair follicle stem cells help brain recovery after injury in rats.
research Hair regenerative effect of silk fibroin hydrogel with incorporation of FGF-2-liposome and its potential mechanism in mice with testosterone-induced alopecia areata
The silk fibroin hydrogel with FGF-2-liposome can potentially treat hair loss in mice.
research The Roles of Non-coding RNA in the Development and Regeneration of Hair Follicles: Current Status and Further Perspectives
Non-coding RNAs are important for hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.
research Comparative biology of tissue repair, regeneration and aging
