Research
540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch A Meeting of Two Chronobiological Systems: Circadian Proteins Period1 and BMAL1 Modulate the Human Hair Cycle Clock
BMAL1 and Period1 genes can influence human hair growth.
research In vitro and clinical evaluation of umbilical cord‐derived mesenchymal stromal cell‐conditioned media for hair regeneration
Umbilical cord-derived media is safe and effective for hair growth.
research Influence of estrogens on the androgen metabolism in different subunits of human hair follicles.
Estrogens can reduce DHT production in hair follicles, but are less effective than finasteride and progesterone.
research Revisiting the significance of keratin expression in complex epithelia
Keratin genes change gradually during skin cell development and should be used carefully as biomarkers.
research Human Female Hair Follicles Are a Direct, Nonclassical Target for Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone affects hair follicles but doesn't change hair growth or color.
research Neonatal murine skin-derived cells transplanted using a mini-chamber model produce robust and normal hair
Transplanted baby mouse skin cells grew normal hair using a new, efficient method.
research 1325 Age-dependent loss of the stemness and antimicrobial defense function of dermal fibroblasts is mediated by TGFbeta
Aging reduces skin cell renewal and defense against germs due to TGFbeta, but blocking TGFbeta could help restore these functions.
research 281 Phase I/IIa clinical trial for the treatment of androgenetic alopecia using intradermal injections of cultured autologous dermal sheath cup cells
Injections of special skin cells showed potential in treating hair loss, with some participants experiencing increased hair density.
research Percutaneous Absorption of Minoxidil in Man
Minoxidil absorbs poorly through skin, with low risk of side effects at 1-2% concentration.
research Biochemical Mechanisms Regulating Human Hair Growth
Androgens shorten hair growth phases, causing finer hair and more severe hair loss in men.
research Planar Proton Minibeam Irradiation Elicits Spatially Confined DNA Damage in a Human Epidermis Model
Proton minibeam radiotherapy may reduce skin side effects by causing localized DNA damage.
research Aberrant connective tissue sheath contraction drives premature hair follicle regression by inducing progenitor cell depletion in androgenetic alopecia
Abnormal contraction of connective tissue in hair follicles causes hair loss by killing off important cells, and treating this could improve hair growth.
research Differentiation of human hair follicle stem cells into endothelial cells induced by vascular endothelial and basic fibroblast growth factors
Human hair follicle stem cells can become endothelial cells with certain growth factors, useful for vascular treatments.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Hair growth‐promotion effects of different alternating current parameter settings are mediated by the activation of Wnt/β‐catenin and MAPK pathway
Certain electric currents can promote hair growth by activating specific cell pathways.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
research Patterns of expression of trichocytic and epithelial cytokeratins in mammalian tissues
Trichocytic differentiation starts in cells with epithelial cytokeratins, transitioning to trichocytic cytokeratins in hair and gradually in nails.
research Hair Growth Promoting Potential of Phospholipids Purified from Porcine Lung Tissues
Phospholipids from pig lungs can significantly promote hair growth.
research Efficacy of Human Foreskin Fibroblast–Conditioned Medium in the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia: A Pilot Trial
Human foreskin fibroblast–conditioned medium improved hair growth in androgenetic alopecia patients.
research 863 Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia gene expression analysis revealed cholesterol, fatty acid, and mast cell pathways
Targeting cholesterol, fatty acids, fibrosis, and mast cells may help treat CCCA.
research 1301 STIM1, but not STIM2, is the calcium sensor critical for sweat secretion
STIM1 is essential for sweat secretion.
research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.
research Possible role of autophagy activation in stimulation of regeneration
The document suggests that activating autophagy might help with regeneration by removing old and damaged cells.
research Electrospun fibrous sponge via short fiber for mimicking 3D ECM
The 3D electrospun fibrous sponge is promising for tissue repair and healing diabetic wounds.
research Ginsenoside F2 Reduces Hair Loss by Controlling Apoptosis through the Sterol Regulatory Element-Binding Protein Cleavage Activating Protein and Transforming Growth Factor-β Pathways in a Dihydrotestosterone-Induced Mouse Model
Ginsenoside F2 may help prevent hair loss and promote hair growth better than finasteride.
research The Opportunities and Challenges regarding Induced Platelets from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells
Human pluripotent stem cells could be used to make platelets for medical use, but safety, effectiveness, and cost issues need to be resolved.
research Extracellular vesicles derived from embryonic day 13 fetal mouse dermal fibroblasts exhibit potential antifibrotic activity
E13 fetal mouse fibroblast vesicles may help reduce scarring.
research The Columbia Manual of Dermatologic Cosmetic Surgery.
