Most children with a common hemochromatosis genotype had elevated iron levels but no severe symptoms.
research Cyclosporine A increases hair follicle growth by suppressing apoptosis-inducing factor nuclear translocation: a new mechanism
Cyclosporine A helps hair grow by blocking a process that would otherwise cause hair cells to die.
research Use of genetics in the prediction of success in male pattern hair loss therapy and mechanistic studies
Genetics can help tailor treatments for male pattern hair loss, improving outcomes like stabilization or modest regrowth.
research Effect of Topical Gel Administration of Secretome Hypoxia Mesenchymal Stem Cells (SH-MSCs) on IL-10 and TNF- α Gene Expression (In Vivo Experimental Study in Male Rats of Wistar Strains Model of Fluconazole-Induced Alopecia)
SH-MSCs gel can effectively treat alopecia by increasing IL-10 and decreasing TNF-α gene expression.
research The effect of glycyrrhizic acid and aqueous licorice extract on hair growth retardation : in vitro mechanistic and efficacy studies in human
Glycyrrhizic acid and licorice extract can significantly reduce unwanted hair growth.
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 Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Randomized trial of electrodynamic microneedling combined with 5% minoxidil topical solution for treating androgenetic alopecia in Chinese males and molecular mechanistic study of the involvement of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway
Microneedling with 5% minoxidil improves hair loss in Chinese men by activating Wnt/ß-catenin pathway.
research Development and Molecular Characterization of Human Placental Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Human Aborted Fetal Tissue as a Model to Study Mechanism of Spontaneous Abortion
Placenta-derived stem cells can help study and treat spontaneous abortion.
research Neuroprotective and immunomodulatory effects of human hair follicle stem cells on streptozotocin-induced memory impairment in rats: insights into inflammation and neurotrophic mechanisms
Human hair follicle stem cells improved memory and brain health in rats.
research Minoxidil improves vascular compliance, restores cerebral blood flow, and alters extracellular matrix gene expression in a model of chronic vascular stiffness
Minoxidil improves blood flow and vessel flexibility, potentially helping with vascular stiffness.
research Anti-androgenic therapy with finasteride improves cardiac function, attenuates remodeling and reverts pathologic gene-expression after myocardial infarction in mice
Finasteride improves heart function and repairs damage after heart attack in mice.
research Pro-Insulin-Like Growth Factor-II Ameliorates Age-Related Inefficient Regenerative Response by Orchestrating Self-Reinforcement Mechanism of Muscle Regeneration
Pro-IGF-II improves muscle repair in old mice.
research The effect of cilostazol, a phosphodiesterase 3 (PDE3) inhibitor, on human hair growth with the dual promoting mechanisms
Cilostazol helps hair grow by making hair root cells grow faster and changing growth factor levels.
research Identification of genes influencing formation of the Type III Brush Hair in Yangtze River Delta white goats by differential display of mRNA
Researchers found genes that affect hair growth in Yangtze River Delta white goats.
research T-Regulating Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Special immune cells called Treg cells are important for maintaining and regenerating hair by activating a specific growth signal in hair stem cells.
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 Microenvironmental reprogramming of thymic epithelial cells to skin multipotent stem cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research Transcriptional Control of Epidermal Stem Cells
Certain transcription factors are key in controlling skin stem cell behavior and could impact future treatments for skin repair and hair loss.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Structure and hair follicle-specific expression of genes encoding the rat high sulfur protein B2 family
The B2 genes are crucial for hair growth in rats.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
