research Keratin 17 modulates hair follicle cycling in a TNFα-dependent fashion
Keratin 17 is crucial for normal hair growth by regulating hair cycle transitions with TNFα.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Age-associated inflammation inhibits epidermal stem cell function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research Receptor activator of NF-κB (RANK) stimulates the proliferation of epithelial cells of the epidermo-pilosebaceous unit
RANK-RANKL signaling is essential for hair growth and skin health.
research Modulating hair follicle size with W nt10b/DKK 1 during hair regeneration
Wnt10b makes hair follicles bigger, but DKK1 can reverse this effect.
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.
research Hair Growth Promotion Activity and Its Mechanism ofPolygonum multiflorum
Polygonum multiflorum can promote hair growth when taken orally or applied topically.
research Alteration of Skin Wound Healing in Keratinocyte-Specific Mediator Complex Subunit 1 Null Mice
MED1 affects skin wound healing differently in young and old mice.
research Effect of Nutritional Restriction on the Hair Follicles Development and Skin Transcriptome of Chinese Merino Sheep
Poor maternal nutrition can lead to fewer wool follicles in Chinese Merino sheep.
research Progress and prospects: gene therapy for performance and appearance enhancement
Gene therapy shows promise for enhancing physical traits but faces ethical, safety, and regulatory challenges.
research Hair growth promoting activity of discarded biocomposite keratin extract
Keratin extract from human hair was found to promote hair growth in mice.
research Natural product Shi-Bi-Man regulates lactic acid metabolism and drives hair follicle stem cell activation to promote hair regeneration
Shi-Bi-Man activates hair follicle stem cells and promotes hair growth by changing lactic acid metabolism and other cellular processes.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co- option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.
research Transformation of amnion epithelium into skin and hair follicles
Mouse amnion can turn into skin and hair follicles with help from certain cells and factors.
research Novel effect of sildenafil on hair growth
Sildenafil, often used for erectile dysfunction, may help hair growth.
research Single-cell transcriptomics reveals lineage trajectory of human scalp hair follicle and informs mechanisms of hair graying
The study found new details about human hair growth and suggests that preventing a specific biological pathway could potentially treat hair graying.
research INVESTIGATING THE MECHANISMS UNDERLYING THE PATHOGENESIS OF ALOPECIA AREATA
Alopecia areata may be treated by using EGCG to balance immune cells and reduce inflammation.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Gap junctions in Turing-type periodic feather pattern formation
Gap junctions help control feather pattern formation in chickens.
research Involvement of the Edar Signaling in the Control of Hair Follicle Involution (Catagen)
Edar signaling is crucial for controlling hair growth and regression.
research 0846 Wnt signaling drives hair follicle regeneration in wounds by attenuating mechanotransduction in the epidermis
Wnt signaling helps regenerate hair follicles in wounds by reducing skin cell sensitivity to mechanical stress.
research Alopecia due to chemotherapeutics, hedgehog inhibitors, targeted antibody therapies and immune checkpoint inhibitors
Cancer treatments can cause hair loss, but it is often reversible and can be managed with scalp cooling and support.
research 453 Signaling by Senescent Melanocytes Induces New Hair Growth and Informs Hair Growth-Activating Injectable for Androgenetic Alopecia
AMP-303 injections can increase hair growth in androgenetic alopecia with minimal side effects.
research Impaired Notch‐MKP ‐1 signalling in hidradenitis suppurativa: an approach to pathogenesis by evidence from translational biology
Faulty Notch signalling may cause hair follicle changes and inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Induction of the hair growth phase in postnatal mice by localized transient expression of Sonic hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
