research Particulate matter 2.5 damages skin cells by inducing oxidative stress, subcellular organelle dysfunction, and apoptosis
Tiny pollution particles called PM2.5 can harm skin cells by causing stress, damage to cell parts, and cell death.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Noggin is required for induction of the hair follicle growth phase in postnatal skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research Bioengineering skin using mechanisms of regeneration and repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Lecithin organogels as a potential phospholipid-structured system for topical drug delivery: A review
Lecithin organogels could be good for applying drugs to the skin because they are stable, safe, and can improve drug absorption.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Commensal Microbes and Hair Follicle Morphogenesis Coordinately Drive Treg Migration into Neonatal Skin
Hair follicle development and microbes help regulatory T cells gather in newborn skin.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research In vivo transcriptional governance of hair follicle stem cells by canonical Wnt regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Fetal Alcohol Syndrome: Current Status of Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the exact way alcohol causes harm to fetal development is unknown, but it significantly affects nutrient transport to the fetus and a safe level of alcohol during pregnancy is not determined.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Gender differences in skin: A review of the literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Biocompatible nanoparticles and vesicular systems in transdermal drug delivery for various skin diseases
Nanoparticles improve drug delivery through the skin but more research is needed on their long-term effects and skin penetration challenges.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata causes hair loss, has no cure, and various treatments exist.
research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Historical and Current Adenosine Receptor Agonists in Preclinical and Clinical Development
The document concludes that adenosine receptor agonists have potential for treating various conditions, but only a few are approved due to challenges like side effects and the need for selective activation.
research Ancient-modern concordance in Ayurvedic plants: some examples.
Modern science supports the use of some Ayurvedic plants for health, as ancient practices suggested.
research Protoporphyrin IX: the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.
research Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
