research Comparative biology of tissue repair, regeneration and aging
The symposium concluded that understanding how different species repair tissue and how this changes with age can help advance regenerative medicine.
research Tracing immune cells around biomaterials with spatial anchors during large-scale wound regeneration
Immune cells are essential for skin regeneration using biomaterial scaffolds.
research 1367 The protective role of miR-486 for alopecia areata
miR-486 may help prevent hair loss in alopecia areata.
research 709 Nitric oxide-releasing topical therapeutic agent for atopic dermatitis
SB414 may be an effective treatment for atopic dermatitis by reducing swelling and bacterial infection.
research Immunopathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecia
Hair loss in Lichen Planopilaris is caused by immune system issues damaging hair follicles and stem cells.
research Geriatric Dermatology: Overview
Skin problems in the elderly are unique and may indicate other diseases, involving changes in skin, hair, nails, and increased cancer risk.
research Exploring the Relationship Between Immune Cells and Non-Scarring Hair Loss: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Certain immune cells are linked to non-scarring hair loss, suggesting potential for immune-targeted treatments.
research Peripheral blood gene expression in alopecia areata reveals molecular pathways distinguishing heritability, disease and severity
Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
research The Nuclear Vitamin D Receptor: Biological and Molecular Regulatory Properties Revealed
The vitamin D receptor is crucial for bone health and affects various body systems, with mutations potentially leading to disease.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research THE PATHOGENESIS OF ALOPECIA AREATA
Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.
research The blastema and epimorphic regeneration in mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Male sex hormones, aging, and inflammation
Adequate testosterone is crucial for men's health and quality of life, but its decline with age needs more research.
research Multi-layered environmental regulation on the homeostasis of stem cells: The saga of hair growth and alopecia
Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Genome-wide association study of skin complex diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research The immune response to COVID ‐19: Does sex matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
research Evolving approaches to profiling the microbiome in skin disease
New technologies help us better understand how skin microbes affect skin diseases.
research Molecular Genetics of Alopecias
Scientists have found specific genes linked to different hair loss conditions, which could lead to new treatments.
research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health by altering gene expression, affecting DNA, mitochondria, and skin barriers.
research Diverse cellular players orchestrate regeneration after wounding
Different cell types work together to repair skin, and targeting them may improve healing and reduce scarring.
research Computational derivation of a molecular framework for hair follicle biology from disease genes
The research provides a gene-based framework for hair biology, highlighting the Hippo pathway's importance and suggesting links between hair disorders, cancer pathways, and the immune system.
research Angiogenesis and minoxidil
Minoxidil might cause blood vessel-related skin lesions when applied to the scalp.
research Tracing immune cells around biomaterials with spatial anchors during large-scale wound regeneration
Biodegradable scaffolds help regenerate wounds and hair by activating the immune system.
research Vitiligo: are microbes to blame?
Microbes might play a role in vitiligo.
research Alopecia areata treated with homoeopathic medicine: A case study
Homeopathic treatment might help manage alopecia areata.
research Severe Hypernatremia as Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton syndrome can cause severe dehydration, infections, and growth issues in infants.
research Identification of immune microenvironment changes, immune-related pathways and genes in male androgenetic alopecia
The research suggests immune system changes and specific gene expression may contribute to male hair loss, proposing potential new treatments.
