research Hair matrix germinative epidermal cells confer follicle-inducing capabilities on dermal sheath and high passage papilla cells
Hair growth can be stimulated by combining certain skin cells, which can rejuvenate old cells and cause them to specialize in hair follicle creation.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.
research Does Nicastrin Inadequacy Cause Melanocytotoxicity in Human Skin as in the Fish Counterpart?
Nicastrin deficiency may cause skin cell damage and pigmentation disorders in humans, similar to effects seen in fish.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Mitochondrial Function in Murine Skin Epithelium Is Crucial for Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Interactions
Healthy mitochondria in skin cells are essential for proper hair growth and skin cell interaction in mice.
research Downregulation of nuclear factor-kappaB activation in human keratinocytes by melanogenesis inhibitors
Melanogenesis inhibitors like kojic acid and niacinamide can reduce inflammation and pigment production in skin cells.
research The Formation of Vellus Hair Follicles from Human Adult Epidermis1
Adult human skin can grow new fine hair follicles after a deep exfoliation treatment.
research Polyclonal origin and hair induction ability of dermal papillae in neonatal and adult mouse back skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Epidermal Cells Expressing Putative Cell Markers in Nonglabrous Skin Existing in Direct Proximity with the Distal End of the Arrector Pili Muscle
Certain skin cells near the base of hair muscles may help renew and stabilize skin, possibly affecting skin disorder understanding.
research Photosensory Function, Reception and Response in Human Skin
Human skin responds to light with protective mechanisms, but more research is needed to understand these processes and their implications for health and therapy.
research Mysteries of salt and pepper
Preventing hair graying may be possible by managing oxidative stress and activating melanocyte stem cells.
research Dendritic cell migrations involving the pilosebaceous unit in the development of murine skin
Dendritic cells help regulate skin development and hair growth in mice.
research Leukotrichia Developed Following Application of Intense Pulsed Light for Hair Removal
Some people's hair turned white or gray after using intense pulsed light for hair removal, and for some, it was permanent.
research 1345 A single-cell RNA map of perinatal developing mouse skin
The research mapped gene activity in developing mouse skin and found key markers for skin cell types and changes from fetal to early postnatal stages.
research Coming of Age of Melanogenesis-Related Proteins
Tyrosinase and gp100 proteins can help diagnose and treat melanoma.
research Apoptotic cells may drive cell death in hair follicles during their regression cycle
Apoptotic cells help cause hair follicle cell death during regression.
research Comparison of the acute ultraviolet photoresponse in congenic albino hairless C57BL /6J mice relative to outbred SKH 1 hairless mice
B6.Cg-Tyr c−2J Hr hr /J mice have a stronger delayed sunburn reaction and are good for UV research.
research 085 Autoantigen screening in C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata revealed high antigenicity of melanocyte-associated antigen epitopes
Melanocyte-associated antigens may play a key role in alopecia areata and could be targets for new treatments.
research Hair cycle and hair pigmentation: dynamic interactions and changes associated with aging
As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.
research The ultrastructure of the interfollicular epidermis of the hairless (hr/hr) mouse
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Grey hair: clinical investigation into changes in hair fibres with loss of pigmentation in a photoprotected population
Grey hair is wilder, drier, and less manageable than pigmented hair.
research Disseminated Nonsegmental Vitiligo Associated With Halo Nevi and Premature Gray Hair
A rare combination of halo nevi, nonsegmental vitiligo, and early gray hair can occur together.
research Epidermal Deletion of Rac1 Causes Stem Cell Depletion, Irrespective of whether Deletion Occurs during Embryogenesis or Adulthood
Deleting Rac1 in the skin depletes stem cells and damages hair follicles.
research Artificial Pigmented Human Skin Created by Muse Cells
Researchers created artificial human skin using special cells, which could help treat skin conditions like albinism and vitiligo.
research The Suppression Effects of Fat Mass and Obesity Associated Gene on the Hair Follicle-Derived Neural Crest Stem Cells Differentiating into Melanocyte by N6-Methyladenosine Modifying Microphthalmia-Associated Transcription Factor
