540-570 / 1000+ results research In situ tensile deformation characterization of human hair with atomic force microscopy
AFM helped show how hair changes under tension and the effects of damage and conditioner.
research The logic of follicular unit transplantation
The document concludes that follicular unit transplantation offers more natural results and better graft survival than older hair transplant methods.
research Applications of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration and Rejuvenation
Mesenchymal stem cells show potential for skin healing and anti-aging, but more research is needed for safe use, especially regarding stem cells from induced pluripotent sources.
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 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 Follicular Transplantation
Careful planning and patient counseling can lead to excellent hair transplant results, often in one or two sessions.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Specific receptor detection by a functional keratinocyte growth factor-immunoglobulin chimera.
A new protein was made to detect specific skin cell growth receptors and worked in normal skin but not in skin cancer cells.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research A position effect on TRPS1 is associated with Ambras syndrome in humans and the Koala phenotype in mice
A position effect on the TRPS1 gene causes excessive hair growth in humans and mice.
research Impaired Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling with Abnormal Epidermal Differentiation in nackt Mice, a Cathepsin L-Deficient Mutation
Cathepsin L deficiency causes hair and skin issues in mice.
research Overexpression of mIGF-1 in Keratinocytes Improves Wound Healing and Accelerates Hair Follicle Formation and Cycling in Mice
mIGF-1 in skin cells speeds up wound healing and hair growth in mice without harmful effects.
research Engineering Pro‐Regenerative Hydrogels for Scarless Wound Healing
Hydrogels could lead to better treatments for wound healing without scars.
research Conformational differences in protein disulfide linkages between normal hair and hair from subjects with trichothiodystrophy: A quantitative analysis by Raman microspectroscopy
TTD hair is brittle due to fewer sulfur amino acids and unstable disulfide bonds.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Diagnosis and Management of Alopecia in Children
The guide explains how to identify and treat children's hair loss, including fungal infections, autoimmune disorders, hairstyle changes, self-correcting conditions, and behavioral therapy for hair-pulling.
research Female pattern hair loss: current treatment concepts.
Minoxidil 2% and 5% are common treatments for female pattern hair loss, with other options including anti-androgens, oral contraceptives, and hair transplantation.
research Micro-Needling Depth Penetration, Presence of Pigment Particles, and Fluorescein-Stained Platelets: Clinical Usage for Aesthetic Concerns
