Research
570-600 / 1000+ resultsresearch Novel immune mechanisms in androgenetic alopecia
Blocking GPR91 can help prevent and reverse hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research The Fate of Trichohyalin
Trichohyalin is modified by enzymes to form strong structures in hair cells.
research GPCRs as key regulators in wound healing
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are crucial in the wound healing process, influencing immune cell recruitment and signaling pathways like Hedgehog-GLI, Hippo-YAP1, and Wnt/β-catenin, which are involved in epidermal cell proliferation and differentiation. By modifying GPCR activity with agonists or antagonists, it is possible to impact immune cell infiltration, inflammatory mediator production, and the rate of wound healing. This review discusses the fundamental mechanisms of GPCR signaling in wound healing and recent discoveries about their roles and functions.
