390-420 / 1000+ resultsresearch Author response: Type XVII collagen coordinates proliferation in the interfollicular epidermis
Type XVII collagen helps control skin cell growth and may have anti-aging effects.
research Editor's evaluation: Role of distinct fibroblast lineages and immune cells in dermal repair following UV radiation-induced tissue damage
Different types of sun exposure damage skin cells and immune cells, with chronic exposure leading to more severe and lasting damage.
research Neuroendocrinology of the hair follicle: principles and clinical perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Protective Effects of Schinus terebinthifolius Leaf Supercritical Fluid Extract Against UVC-Induced Oxidative Stress: A Com-Prehensive Gene Expression Study
Brazilian pepper tree leaf extract effectively protects skin cells from UVC damage and is a strong natural skincare option.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Development and Characterization of Thiolated Cyclodextrin-Based Nanoparticles for Topical Delivery of Minoxidil
The new adhesive nanoparticles are effective for delivering Minoxidil to the scalp without skin irritation.
research Minoxidil: effectiveness and prospects for use in the treatment of androgenetic alopecia
Minoxidil is an effective and safe treatment for common hair loss when applied to the skin, but more research is needed for optimal use.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
