research Follicular dermal papilla structures by organization of epithelial and mesenchymal cells in interfacial polyelectrolyte complex fibers
Scientists created 3D hair-like structures that could help study hair growth and test treatments.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research A Window into Mammalian Basement Membrane Development: Insights from themTurq2-Col4a1Mouse Model
The mTurq2-Col4a1 mouse model shows that cells can divide while attached to stable basement membranes during development.
research A Fibrous Hybrid Patch Couples Cell-Derived Matrix and Poly(l -lactide-co-caprolactone) for Endothelial Cells Delivery and Skin Wound Repair
The new patch made of cell matrix and a polymer improves wound healing and supports blood vessel growth.
research Characterisation of CD4+ stem cells of the skin and their role in skin homeostasis and tumourigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research The influence of interferon on healthy and diseased skin
Type I interferons play a key role in the development of various skin diseases.
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 Pannexin 3 regulates skin development via Epiprofin
Pannexin 3 helps skin and hair growth by controlling a protein called Epiprofin.
research Skin biology
Current therapies cannot fully regenerate adult skin without scars; more research is needed for scar-free healing.
research Skin Deep and Deeper: Multiple Pathways in Basal Cell Carcinogenesis
The research suggests new treatments for skin cancer could target specific cell growth pathways.
research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
Keratin gene expression helps understand different types of skin cells and their development, and should be used carefully as biological markers.
research Study of olive leaf extract on skin aging: Ex vivo, animal, and randomized double-blind placebo-controlled clinical studies
Olive leaf extract may help improve skin aging, especially for those who don't exercise regularly.
research Disrupted Cholesterol Biosynthesis and Hair Follicle Stem Cell Impairment in the Onset of Alopecia
Disrupted cholesterol production impairs hair follicle stem cells, leading to hair loss.
research IL-33 Contributes to the Pathological Changes of Hair Follicles in Psoriasis: A Potential Target for Psoriatic Alopecia
IL-33 is linked to hair follicle damage in psoriasis and could be a treatment target for hair loss in this condition.
research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Androgens and hair growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research Cutaneous Drug Eruptions Associated with the Use of Biologies and Cutaneous Drug Eruptions Mimicking Specific Skin Diseases
Some drugs, especially biologics, can cause skin reactions that look like other skin diseases, and stopping the drug usually helps clear up these reactions.
research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research Hair Follicle Biology and Topical Minoxidil: Possible Mechanisms of Action
Minoxidil stimulates hair growth by increasing hair thickness and prolonging growth phase.
research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormones are important for skin health and might help treat skin diseases, but more research is needed to understand their effects fully.
research Hair follicle-derived epithelial sheet has potential in vitiligo treatment
Hair follicle-derived sheets can effectively treat vitiligo by repigmenting skin.
research Potential Therapeutic Uses of Thyroid Hormone
