research 9 Pilosebaceous physiology in relation to hirsutism and acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research The disruption of Sox21-mediated hair shaft cuticle differentiation causes cyclic alopecia in mice
Disrupting the Sox21 gene in mice causes hair loss and regrowth cycles.
research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability during Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Stress-related skin disorders
Stress can worsen skin conditions by affecting hormone levels and immune response.
research Stem cell quiescence acts as a tumour suppressor in squamous tumours
Inactive hair follicle stem cells help prevent skin cancer.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa
Hidradenitis suppurativa treatment should be tailored to the individual, with quitting smoking being important.
research Targeting Superficial or Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma with Topically Formulated Small Molecule Inhibitor of Smoothened
The topical inhibitor CUR61414 was not effective in treating basal cell carcinoma in human trials.
research Finasteride in the treatment of alopecia
Finasteride effectively treats male pattern baldness, improving hair growth and density.
research Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and PPAR agonists: the ‘future’ in dermatology therapeutics?
PPAR agonists show promise for skin conditions but need more research before being a main treatment.
research Nanotechnology in Dermatology

RANK-RANKL signaling is essential for hair growth and skin health.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Extracellular Matrix as a Regulator of Epidermal Stem Cell Fate
The extracellular matrix is crucial for controlling skin stem cell behavior and health.
research Bi-allelic Mutations in LSS, Encoding Lanosterol Synthase, Cause Autosomal-Recessive Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.
research Clock genes, hair growth and aging
Circadian clock genes are important for hair growth and may affect aging-related hair loss and graying.
research Compartmentalized Epidermal Activation of β-Catenin Differentially Affects Lineage Reprogramming and Underlies Tumor Heterogeneity
Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Defolliculated (Dfl): A Dominant Mouse Mutation Leading to Poor Sebaceous Gland Differentiation and Total Elimination of Pelage Follicles
The Dfl mutation in mice causes poor sebaceous gland function and complete hair loss.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research RANK as a therapeutic target in cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research Hair Cycle Control by Vanilloid Receptor-1 (TRPV1): Evidence from TRPV1 Knockout Mice

research Dynamic expression of Runx1 in skin affects hair structure
Runx1 is crucial for proper hair structure and development.
research Therapeutic Potential of Stem Cells in Follicle Regeneration
Stem cells, especially from fat tissue and Wharton's jelly, can potentially regenerate hair follicles and treat hair loss, but more research is needed to perfect the treatment.
research Formulation and in vitro evaluation of polymeric enteric nanoparticles as dermal carriers with pH-dependent targeting potential
Scientists created tiny particles that release medicine on the skin and in hair, working better at certain pH levels and being safe for skin cells.
research Expression of Foxi3 is regulated by ectodysplasin in skin appendage placodes
Foxi3 expression in developing teeth and hair is controlled by the ectodysplasin pathway.
