research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Homeostatic Control of Sebaceous Glands by Innate Lymphoid Cells Regulates Commensal Bacteria Equilibrium
Innate lymphoid cells help control skin bacteria by regulating sebaceous glands.
research Single-cell analysis reveals fibroblast heterogeneity and myeloid-derived adipocyte progenitors in murine skin wounds
The research found that different types of fibroblasts are involved in wound healing and that some blood cells can turn into fat cells during this process.
research Multimodal profiling reveals site-specific adaptation and tissue residency hallmarks of γδ T cells across organs in mice
γδ T cells adapt uniquely to different tissues in mice.
research γδ17 T cell-stromal networks modulate matrix composition and vascularity in foreign body response
γδ T cells help control tissue scarring and blood vessel growth in response to foreign objects.
research Sustainable applications of phytochemicals and nutritive components derived from selected underutilized seeds: A review [pdf]
Underutilized seeds like jackfruit, Indian almond, and tamarind have valuable nutrients and compounds that can be used sustainably in various industries.
research Effects of Imiquimod on Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Hair Cycle Progression
Imiquimod cream activates hair follicle stem cells and causes early hair growth by changing immune cells and certain protein expressions.
research Mathematical Modeling of Alopecia Areata: Unraveling Hair Cycle Dynamics, Disease Progression, and Treatment Strategies
The model helps understand alopecia areata and suggests better treatment strategies.
research Scarring hair follicle destruction is driven by the collapse of EGFR-protected JAK-STAT1-sensitive stem cell immune privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Diverse mechanisms for endogenous regeneration and repair in mammalian organs
Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.
research Hedgehog signaling reprograms hair follicle niche fibroblasts to a hyper-activated state
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research N1-acetylspermidine is a determinant of hair follicle stem cell fate
N1-acetylspermidine promotes hair follicle stem cell self-renewal.
research An important role of podoplanin in hair follicle growth
Deleting podoplanin in mice promotes hair growth by enhancing cell migration.
research Consumption of fish oil high-fat diet induces murine hair loss via epidermal fatty acid binding protein in skin macrophages
Eating a high-fat fish oil diet caused mice to lose hair due to a specific immune cell activity in the skin linked to a protein called E-FABP.
research Selective Expansion of Tregs Using the IL-2 Cytokine Antibody Complex Does Not Reverse Established Alopecia Areata in C3H/HeJ Mice
Increasing Treg cells in the skin does not cure hair loss from alopecia areata in mice.
research Characterization of Primary Cilia and Intraflagellar Transport 20 in the Epidermis
Ift20 is essential for hair follicle function and skin cell movement.
research Stress-induced sympathetic hyperactivation drives hair follicle necrosis to trigger autoimmunity
Stress can cause hair loss and trigger autoimmunity by damaging hair follicle cells.
research Cold Atmospheric Plasma‐Activated In Situ Hydrogel Induces Hair Regeneration Via Immune Microenvironment Remodeling
The treatment using a special hydrogel shows promise for promoting hair growth.
research Early skin seeding regulatory T cells modulate PPARγ-dependent skin pigmentation
Early regulatory T cells are crucial for normal skin pigmentation.
research Repurposing DPP4-Inhibition to Improve Hair Follicle Activation and Regeneration
Blocking DPP4 can potentially speed up hair growth and regeneration, especially after injury or in cases of hair loss.
research Cell Population Dynamics in Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis Model
Non-immune dermal cells dominate, epidermal cells increase after day 9, and certain immune cells persist beyond inflammation in wound-induced hair follicle regeneration.
research CXCL12 Neutralizing Antibody Promotes Hair Growth in Androgenic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Blocking the protein CXCL12 with a specific antibody can increase hair growth in common hair loss conditions.
research JAK-STAT1 as therapeutic target for EGFR deficiency-associated inflammation and scarring alopecia
Targeting JAK-STAT1 can reduce inflammation and promote hair growth in conditions linked to EGFR deficiency.
research Genetic Tools for Cell Lineage Tracing and Profiling Developmental Trajectories in the Skin
CRISPR-based tools improve understanding and treatment of skin development and conditions.
research Granulocyte colony stimulating factor promotes scarless tissue regeneration
Granulocyte colony stimulating factor helps heal wounds without scars.
research SPRY1 Deficiency in Keratinocytes Induces Follicular Melanocyte Stem Cell Migration to the Epidermis through p53/Stem Cell Factor/C-KIT Signaling
SPRY1 deficiency in skin cells causes stem cells to move to the skin surface, leading to increased pigmentation.
research Folate receptor β performs an immune checkpoint function in activated macrophages
Folate receptor β helps suppress the immune system in macrophages and affects cancer growth and hair health.
research The Involvement of RIPK1 in Alopecia Areata
RIPK1 inhibitors may help prevent alopecia areata by reducing immune cell activity.
research Th1 effector CD4 T cells rely on IFN-γ production to induce alopecia areata
CD4 T cells need IFN-γ to cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
