research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Comparisons of mouse models for hair follicle reconstitution
The flap assay grows the most natural hair but takes the longest, the chamber assay is hard work but gives dense, normal hair, and the patch assay is quick but creates poorly oriented hair with some issues.
research Ganoderma lucidum is an inhibitor of testosterone-induced prostatic hyperplasia in rats
Ganoderma lucidum may help treat enlarged prostate in rats.
research Retinoid-mediated stimulation of steroid sulfatase activity in myeloid leukemic cell lines requires RARα and RXR and involves the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Is skin microneedling a good alternative method of various skin defects removal
Microneedling is a safe and effective way to improve various skin conditions with minimal side effects.
research Final Report on the Safety Assessment of Hypericum Perforatum Extract and Hypericum Perforatum Oil
St. John's Wort extract and oil safety in cosmetics is unclear; more data needed on photosensitization, toxicity, and human irritation.
research Selective inhibition by minoxidil of prostacyclin production by cells in culture
Minoxidil stops cells from making prostacyclin, which may help with hair growth. More research is needed.
research Hyperadrenocorticism (Hyperadrenocorticoidism, Hyperadrenocorticalism, Cushing’s Disease, Cushing’s Syndrome)
Treatment can improve survival and symptoms in dogs with Cushing's disease, but outcomes are unpredictable.
research Medicinal Value of Three Agricultural Weed Species of the Asteraceae Family: A Review
These three weeds have important medicinal properties and need more research for potential pharmaceutical use.
research Major depletion of SOX2+ stem cells in the adult pituitary is not restored which does not affect hormonal cell homeostasis and remodelling
The pituitary gland functions normally even after losing most SOX2+ stem cells.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome: Prevalence and impact on the wellbeing of Australian women aged 16-29 years
Many young Australian women think they have PCOS, but only a few are diagnosed correctly, causing unnecessary worry.
research Immunolocalization of a Histidine-Rich Epidermal Differentiation Protein in the Chicken Supports the Hypothesis of an Evolutionary Developmental Link between the Embryonic Subperiderm and Feather Barbs and Barbules
A specific protein in chicken embryos links early skin layers to feather development.
research The Metabolism and Control Mechanism of Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles have a unique metabolism that changes between growth stages and may contribute to baldness.
research Review of the current understanding of the effect of ultraviolet and visible radiation on hair structure and options for photoprotection
UV radiation and visible light can damage hair, but there are ways to protect it.
research The Follicular Automaton Model: Effect of Stochasticity and of Synchronization of Hair Cycles
The model showed that randomness accurately describes individual hair growth cycles and that synchronization can cause large fluctuations not seen in humans.
research INTERFERONS IN DERMATOLOGY
Interferons are effective for some skin conditions and cancers, but can have side effects and need more research for optimal use.
research Fabrication of polyvinyl pyrrolidone-K90/Eudragit RL100-based dissolving microneedle patches loaded with alpha-arbutin and resveratrol for skin depigmentation
Microneedle patches with alpha-arbutin and resveratrol can effectively reduce skin pigmentation without irritation.
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 Maternal androgen excess induces cardiac hypertrophy and left ventricular dysfunction in female mice offspring
High levels of male hormones in pregnant mice cause heart enlargement and poor heart function in their female babies.
research A guide to studying human dermal adipocytes in situ
The guide explains how to study human skin fat cells and their tissue, aiming to improve research and medical treatments.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Hair follicular cell/organ culture in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for hair regrowth despite potential side effects.
research Developmental genetics of color pattern establishment in cats
Cat color patterns are determined early in development by gene expression and epidermal changes, with the Dickkopf 4 gene playing a crucial role.
research A randomized blinded retrospective study: the combined use of micro-needling technique, low-level laser therapy and autologous non-activated platelet-rich plasma improves hair re-growth in patients with androgenic alopecia
Using micro-needling, low-level laser therapy, and platelet-rich plasma together significantly improves hair growth in people with hair loss.
research Cutaneous wound healing: canine allogeneic ASC therapy
Using stem cells from fat tissue can significantly improve wound healing in dogs.
