research The Thinning Top: Why Old People Have Less Hair
Old people have less hair because their hair follicles don't regenerate as well, not because of fewer stem cells, and a protein called follistatin might help reactivate hair growth.
research Le gènehairlessde la souris
The hairless gene is crucial for hair health, and its mutations cause hair loss.
research 277 An open label pilot clinical trial of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib for alopecia areata
Tofacitinib, a JAK inhibitor, improved hair regrowth in most patients with severe alopecia areata and had minimal side effects.
research The potential of androgenic alopecia management from plant derivatives
Plant extracts like Avicennia marina, Boehmeria nipononivea, and Camellia sinensis could potentially treat hair loss with fewer side effects than synthetic drugs.
research A computationally inferred regulatory heart aging model including post-transcriptional regulations
Researchers created a model to understand heart aging, highlighting key genes and pathways, and suggesting miR-208a as a potential heart attack biomarker.
research Woolly Antics between the Sheaths
Lipase H is important for hair follicle function and shaping hair fibers.

Increased LC3 gene expression may be linked to premature graying of hair.
research RORA Regulates Autophagy in Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Upregulating the Expression Level of the Sqstm1 Gene
RORA boosts autophagy in hair follicle stem cells, potentially aiding hair growth.
research Expression and Analysis of TBX3 Gene in the Skin from Three Locations on Dun Mongolian Bider Horse
TBX3 gene affects horse coat color, with higher expression in darker areas.
research Patched-assoziierte Tumoren: Modifikatorgene und Pathogenese
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research 1377 Decoding frontal fibrosing alopecia and lichen planopilaris: Macrophages hold the key?
Macrophages are more involved in Lichen planopilaris than in Frontal fibrosing alopecia.
research 1325 Age-dependent loss of the stemness and antimicrobial defense function of dermal fibroblasts is mediated by TGFbeta
Aging reduces skin cell renewal and defense against germs due to TGFbeta, but blocking TGFbeta could help restore these functions.
research 260 Establishment and characterization of human sebocytic progenitor cells that can differentiate into functional sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
research 197 A novel splice site mutation in LIPH identified in a Japanese patient with autosomal recessive woolly hair
Researchers found a new genetic mutation linked to a hair condition in a Japanese boy.
research Regenerative Medicine of Epidermal Structures
New treatments for skin and hair repair show promise, but further improvements are needed.
research News in brief
Scientists found key proteins and genes that affect skin and hair health, and identified potential new treatments for hair loss, skin disorders, and wound healing.
research Hairless: A nuclear receptor corepressor essential for skin function
The Hairless gene is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research EP-2270: Novel protective effect of prostaglandin for timely hair follicle regeneration from radiation injury
Prostaglandin helps regenerate hair follicles after radiation damage.
research Folliculin encoded by the BHD gene interacts with a binding protein, FNIP1, and AMPK, and is involved in AMPK and mTOR signaling
Folliculin helps regulate energy and nutrient sensing, impacting Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Protoporphyrin IX: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.
research Acne-associated syndromes: models for better understanding of acne pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research A Missense Mutation within the Helix Initiation Motif of the Keratin K71 Gene Underlies Autosomal Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A specific gene mutation causes woolly hair and hair loss.
research Isolation and Characterization of Human Repetin, a Member of the Fused Gene Family of the Epidermal Differentiation Complex
