research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Defining microRNA signatures of hair follicular stem and progenitor cells in healthy and androgenic alopecia patients
Found microRNA differences in hair cells, suggesting potential treatment targets for hair loss.
research Efficacy and Safety of Autologous Follicular Unit Excision in Pediatric Secondary Cicatricial Alopecia: A Retrospective Case Series
FUE hair transplantation is safe and effective for improving hair loss in children.
research Selective follicular targeting by modification of the particle sizes
Medium-sized particles penetrate hair follicles better than smaller or larger ones, which could improve delivery of skin treatments.
research Enhancement of follicular delivery of finasteride by liposomes and niosomes
Liposomes and niosomes improve finasteride delivery for hair loss treatment.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Hair organ regeneration via the bioengineered hair follicular unit transplantation
Scientists successfully created and transplanted bioengineered hair follicles that function like natural ones, suggesting a new treatment for hair loss.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research PTCH1 Germline Mutations and the Basaloid Follicular Hamartoma Values in the Tumor Spectrum of Basal Cell Carcinoma Syndrome (NBCCS)
NBCCS and BFHS might be the same syndrome, helping better identify and manage cases.
research The Notch Intracellular Domain Has an RBPj-Independent Role during Mouse Hair Follicular Development
The Notch signaling pathway helps in mouse hair development through a noncanonical mechanism that does not rely on RBPj or transcription.
research Significance of the follicular pathway for dermal substance penetration quantified by laser Doppler flowmetry
Hair follicles help substances penetrate the skin faster and more effectively.
research Enhanced Follicular Delivery of Finasteride to Human Scalp Skin Using Heat and Chemical Penetration Enhancers
Heat and chemicals improve finasteride delivery to scalp and hair follicles, potentially enhancing treatment for hair loss.
research The Higher Number and Longer Duration of Kenogen Hairs Are the Main Cause of the Hair Rarefaction in Androgenetic Alopecia.
More kenogen hairs cause hair thinning in androgenetic alopecia, not hair miniaturization.
research Polymorphic CAG Repeat Numbers in the Androgen Receptor Gene of Female Pattern Hair Loss in a Han Chinese Population
No significant link between CAG repeat numbers and female pattern hair loss in Han Chinese population.
research The Optimal Number of Ovarian Punctures to Be Applied During Laparoscopic Ovarian Diathermy in Women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Three to five ovarian punctures are best for improving fertility in women with PCOS without harming the ovaries.
research Inverted Follicular Keratosis in Young Adult: A Rare Entity in the Differential Diagnosis of Skin Tumors
Inverted Follicular Keratosis is rare but should be considered in scalp lesion diagnoses for all ages.
research NUMERICAL DESCRIPTOR COMPUTATION OF ALOPECIA DRUGS USING COM – POLYNOMIAL
Numerical methods help analyze alopecia drugs' properties effectively.
research Facial Follicular Spicules: A Rare Cutaneous Presentation of Trichodysplasia Spinulosa
Trichodysplasia spinulosa can occur after a heart transplant due to immunosuppressive drugs.
research Pubic Hair Restorative Surgery Using Grafts Harvested by the Nonshaven Follicular Unit Extraction Technique
Nonshaven follicular unit extraction is a highly satisfactory method for restoring pubic hair.
research Keratosis follicularis spinulosa decalvans in a female
A rare genetic skin condition usually affecting males was found in a 9-year-old girl.
research HSL Attenuates the Follicular Oxidative Stress and Enhances the Hair Growth in ob/ob Mice
HSL treatment speeds up hair growth and reduces oxidative stress in hair follicles of ob/ob mice.
research MicroRNA Species in Follicular Fluid Associating With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and Related Intermediary Phenotypes
Certain microRNAs in the fluid around eggs are linked to Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and may help diagnose it.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Investigation of Follicular and Non-follicular Pathways for Polyarginine and Oleic Acid-Modified Nanoparticles
Surface-modified nanoparticles mainly use non-follicular pathways to enhance skin permeation of ibuprofen and could improve treatment for inflammatory skin diseases.
research Contribution of the Hair Follicular Pathway to Total Skin Permeation of Topically Applied and Exposed Chemicals
The hair follicle pathway significantly affects how easily water-loving chemicals pass through the skin.
