research Skin wound healing in humans and mice: Challenges in translational research
The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
research Physiological and retinoid-induced proliferations of epidermis basal keratinocytes are differently controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research Human hair follicles contain two forms of ATP‐ sensitive potassium channels, only one of which is sensitive to minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
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 Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells similar to embryonic stem cells.
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 Hair growth-promoting effect of Geranium sibiricum extract in human dermal papilla cells and C57BL/6 mice
Geranium sibiricum extract helps hair grow and is more effective than minoxidil but can be toxic in high concentrations.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research 3-Deoxysappanchalcone Promotes Proliferation of Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells and Hair Growth in C57BL/6 Mice by Modulating WNT/β-Catenin and STAT Signaling
3-Deoxysappanchalcone helps human hair cells grow and stimulates hair growth in mice by affecting certain cell signaling pathways.
research Epidermal keratinocyte stem cells: their maintenance and regulation
Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.
research Effect of minoxidil on pre- and postconfluent keratinocytes
Minoxidil prolongs cell life, slows aging, and may produce longer hairs.
research Prostaglandin D2-Mediated DP2 and AKT Signal Regulate the Activation of Androgen Receptors in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
PGD2 increases androgen receptor activity in hair cells, which could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research Identification of ultraviolet B radiation-induced microRNAs in normal human dermal papilla cells
UVB radiation changes the levels of certain microRNAs in skin cells, which may affect cell survival and hair growth.
research Epigallocatechin Gallate-Mediated Alteration of the MicroRNA Expression Profile in 5α-Dihydrotestosterone-Treated Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Green tea component EGCG may help prevent hair loss by changing microRNA levels in certain scalp cells.
research Human Dermal Fibroblasts Demonstrate Positive Immunostaining for Neuron- and Glia- Specific Proteins
Fibroblasts can be mistaken for neural cells, so functional validation is needed.
research Human epithelial stem cell survival within their niche requires “tonic” cannabinoid receptor 1‐signalling—Lessons from the hair follicle
Cannabinoid receptor-1 signaling is essential for the survival and growth of human hair follicle stem cells.
research Vitamin D receptor-mediated control of Soggy, Wise, and Hairless gene expression in keratinocytes
Vitamin D receptor helps control hair growth genes in skin cells.
research Protective effects of human umbilical cord blood‑derived mesenchymal stem cells against dexamethasone‑induced apoptotic cell death in hair follicles
