research In pemphigus, cell detachment, but not autoantibody binding, induces cell-wide, long-lasting transcriptomic and proteomic changes
Cell detachment, not autoantibody binding, causes major changes in pemphigus.
research Alarm reaction of pilosebaceous apparatus
The hair and oil glands react by changing structure when stressed.
research Gender-specific alteration of steroid metabolism and its impact on viral replication in a mouse model of hepatitis B virus infection
Hepatitis B virus alters steroid hormones in male mice, reducing dihydrotestosterone to inhibit viral replication.
research Human Hair Follicles Operate a Functional Peripheral Equivalent of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Somatotropic Axis Ex Vivo
Human scalp hair follicles can produce hormones and have a system similar to a brain-body communication network.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research SAT-240 Type B Insulin Resistance Resulting in Hyperthecosis in a Postmenopausal Woman
A woman's severe insulin resistance improved with treatment, but she still had high testosterone levels due to ovarian issues.
research The Efficacy of Spiritual Healing
The document concludes that there is no credible evidence that distant healing works, and it should not be further studied in medical literature.
research Epidermal keratinocytes initiate wound healing and pro-inflammatory immune responses following percutaneous schistosome infection
Epidermal keratinocytes start wound healing and inflammation after schistosome infection.

Alopecia areata patients have more activated T cells in their blood, which may help in developing treatments.
research LB1077 Cutaneous responses to systemic iron: A potential role for epidermal turnover in mammalian iron excretion
Skin may help in getting rid of excess iron through the process of skin cell renewal.
research Hirsutism and the Variable Response of the Pilosebaceous Unit to Androgen
Different women's hair and skin glands respond to hormones in varied ways, which can cause unwanted hair growth even with normal hormone levels, and more research is needed to treat this effectively.
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 Membrane androgen receptors may mediate androgen reinforcement
Androgen self-administration might be controlled by membrane receptors, not nuclear ones.
research A case of severe autoimmune hemolytic anemia after a receipt of a first dose of SARS‐CoV‐2 vaccine
An 84-year-old man developed severe anemia after his first COVID-19 vaccine shot, improved with treatment, and was advised against a second dose.
research Developing human fetal skin demonstrates a unique lymphocyte signature
Fetal skin has unique immune cells different from adult skin.

High androgen levels can cause hirsutism and increase inflammation.
research Antihepcidin antibody treatment modulates iron metabolism and is effective in a mouse model of inflammation-induced anemia
Antihepcidin antibodies may treat inflammation-induced anemia by improving iron metabolism.
research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research The role of somatostatin expression in hair follicle immune privilege
Somatostatin helps hair follicles suppress immune responses, which might aid in treating certain hair loss conditions.
research Skin-infiltrating CD4+ lymphoma cells depend on hair follicle-derived IL-7
Hair follicles produce IL-7, which is essential for certain skin lymphoma cells to survive.
research In Human Skin, UVB Initiates Early Induction of IL-10 Over IL-12 Preferentially in the Expanding Dermal Monocytic/Macrophagic Population
UVB exposure in human skin causes macrophages to produce more IL-10 and less IL-12, leading to immunosuppression.
research Plasmacytoid dendritic cells as a key player in the initiation phase of alopecia areata-induced C3H/HeJ mouse
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells, which overproduce IFN-α, may play a crucial role in starting alopecia areata, an autoimmune disease causing hair loss.
research 259 Immunohistochemical insight into the association between the collapse of immune privilege in the sweat gland and syringotropic immune cell infiltrates in collagen diseases
The study found that sweat glands normally suppress immune responses, but this is disrupted in certain skin diseases, possibly contributing to their development.
