research Safety and efficacy of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib citrate in patients with alopecia areata
Tofacitinib is safe and effective for severe alopecia areata, but hair loss may return 2 months after stopping treatment.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2010 objectives and design update
The Rotterdam Study aims to understand various diseases in older adults.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research Oral ruxolitinib induces hair regrowth in patients with moderate-to-severe alopecia areata
Ruxolitinib effectively regrows hair in most patients with severe hair loss.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research Volatile signalling by sesquiterpenes from ectomycorrhizal fungi reprogrammes root architecture
Fungi-produced compounds can change plant root growth.
research Tissue engineering of human hair follicles using a biomimetic developmental approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research Mechanical stretch induces hair regeneration through the alternative activation of macrophages
Mechanical stretching of the skin can promote hair growth by activating certain immune cells.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Alopecia areata: A multifactorial autoimmune condition
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research Hedgehog stimulates hair follicle neogenesis by creating inductive dermis during murine skin wound healing
The Sonic hedgehog pathway is crucial for new hair growth during mouse skin healing.
research Epidemiology and burden of alopecia areata: a systematic review
Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disease affecting about 2% of people, causing significant disability and often associated with mental health issues and other autoimmune conditions.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Pathophysiological mechanisms implicated in postpartum depression
Postpartum depression is linked to changes in brain chemicals, inflammation, stress, and certain genes, and can potentially be identified by markers like specific steroids, serotonin levels, and vitamin D levels.
research Transplantation immunology: Solid organ and bone marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
Feather patterns in birds are shaped by signaling interactions and cell movements, with EDA/EDAR crucial for pattern formation.
research Genetic prediction of male pattern baldness
Genetic factors can help predict male pattern baldness risk.
research Macrophages Regulate Schwann Cell Maturation after Nerve Injury
Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.
research Obesity and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Implications for Pathogenesis and Novel Management Strategies
Obesity worsens PCOS symptoms, and PCOS may lead to more weight gain; managing both requires a holistic approach that includes mental health.
research dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research What’s Sex Got to Do With COVID-19? Gender-Based Differences in the Host Immune Response to Coronaviruses
Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research The role of AUTS2 in neurodevelopment and human evolution
The AUTS2 gene is linked to neurological disorders and may affect human brain development and cognition.
research Dental cell type atlas reveals stem and differentiated cell types in mouse and human teeth
The research identified various cell types in mouse and human teeth, which could help in developing dental regenerative treatments.
research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research Single-cell analysis of murine fibroblasts identifies neonatal to adult switching that regulates cardiomyocyte maturation
Adult fibroblasts help heart cells mature and improve heart function.
