Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research Central Opioid Inhibition of Neuroendocrine Stress Responses in Pregnancy in the Rat Is Induced by the Neurosteroid Allopregnanolone
In late pregnancy, allopregnanolone reduces stress responses in rats by affecting brain chemicals.
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 Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Anti-ageing effect of a lactococcal strain: analysis using senescence-accelerated mice
Lactococcus lactis strain H61 may reduce some ageing symptoms.
research The Changing Landscape of Alopecia Areata: The Therapeutic Paradigm
New treatments for Alopecia Areata, like JAK inhibitors, show promise for hair regrowth and are likely to change future treatment approaches.
research p53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Ovarian leukocyte distribution and cytokine/chemokine mRNA expression in follicular fluid cells in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Women with PCOS have fewer activated T cells in their ovarian follicles, which might affect fertility.
research Proinflammatory cytokines regulate epidermal stem cells in wound epithelialization
Certain immune system proteins are important for skin healing but can cause problems if there are too many of them.
research Anti-inflammatory, cyclooxygenase inhibitory and antioxidant activities of standardized extracts of Tridax procumbens L.
Extracts from Tridax procumbens L. have strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects and block inflammation-causing enzymes.
research FOLLICULAR LIPOSOMAL DELIVERY SYSTEMS
New liposomal formulations may improve delivery of treatments to hair follicles, potentially helping with hair loss.
research Metabolic syndrome and the skin: a more than superficial association. Reviewing the association between skin diseases and metabolic syndrome and a clinical decision algorithm for high risk patients
Some skin conditions may indicate metabolic syndrome, which could help with early detection and management of related health issues.
research Hydroxyl radical mediates cisplatin-induced apoptosis in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes through Bcl-2-dependent mechanism
Hydroxyl radicals cause hair follicle cell death during chemotherapy by reducing Bcl-2 protein levels.
research Neuroimmunoregulation of Androgens in the Adrenal Gland and the Skin
Cytokines and neuropeptides are key in controlling androgen levels, affecting skin and hair conditions.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Eupafolin nanoparticles protect HaCaT keratinocytes from particulate matter-induced inflammation and oxidative stress
Eupafolin nanoparticles help protect skin cells from damage caused by air pollution.
research The association between Interleukin (IL)-4 gene intron 3 VNTR polymorphism and alopecia areata (AA) in Turkish population
IL-4 gene variation may increase the risk of alopecia areata in Turkish people.
research Studying the genetic predisposing factors in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
research An investigation of vitamin D status in alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Toxic shock syndrome: Recent developments in pathogenesis
Toxic shock syndrome is caused by a complex interaction of bacterial toxins and the immune system, and understanding this can help improve diagnosis and treatment.
research An Update on Medical Treatment Options for Hidradenitis Suppurativa
New treatments for a chronic skin condition show promise, but individualized plans are crucial due to varying responses.
research Sex hormone–binding globulin and risk of hyperglycemia in patients with androgenetic alopecia
People with hair loss have higher risk of high blood sugar and diabetes, and lower levels of a specific hormone.
research New onset of alopecia areata in a patient with SARS‐CoV‐2 infection: Possible pathogenetic correlations?
COVID-19 infection may trigger alopecia areata in some patients.
research Effect of dihydrotestosterone on the upregulation of inflammatory cytokines in cultured sebocytes
Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.
research The Additive Effects of Minoxidil and Retinol on Human Hair Growth in Vitro
