research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
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 Androgen Induction of Follicular Epithelial Cell Growth Is Mediated via Insulin-like Growth Factor-I from Dermal Papilla Cells
Male hormones promote hair cell growth by using a growth factor from nearby skin cells.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Interventions for alopecia areata
Current treatments for alopecia show no significant long-term benefits.
research Mechanical stretch induces hair regeneration through the alternative activation of macrophages
Mechanical stretching of the skin can promote hair growth by activating certain immune cells.
research The structure of human trichohyalin. Potential multiple roles as a functional EF-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin helps in hair and skin cell structure and function by binding calcium and linking proteins.
research Innovative Liposomes as a Transfollicular Drug Delivery System: Penetration into Porcine Hair Follicles
Liposomes with certain properties can effectively deliver drugs deep into hair follicles.
research Wnt signaling induces epithelial differentiation during cutaneous wound healing
Wnt signaling can improve skin healing by promoting epithelial growth.
research Influence of the cosmetic treatment of hair on drug testing
Cosmetic hair treatments like bleaching and dyeing reduce drug levels in hair samples.
research Bioactive inorganic particles‐based biomaterials for skin tissue engineering
Bioactive inorganic particles-based biomaterials show promise for improving skin wound healing.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Scalp cooling might reduce hair loss from chemotherapy, but evidence is weak and other treatments are being tested.
research Understanding the Epidemiology, Natural History, and Key Pathways Involved in Prostate Cancer
Prostate cancer was a major health issue in 2009, especially for Black men, and targeting the 5alpha-reductase enzyme could help in its prevention and treatment.
research Follicular Unit Extraction: Minimally Invasive Surgery for Hair Transplantation
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a less invasive hair transplant method with minimal scarring, suitable for about 60% of patients, especially those needing fewer grafts and quicker recovery.
research Independent genomewide screens identify the tumor suppressor VTRNA2-1 as a human epiallele responsive to periconceptional environment
The environment around the time of conception can change the VTRNA2-1 gene in a way that lasts for years and may affect disease risk.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
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 Inactivation of the Vitamin D Receptor Enhances Susceptibility of Murine Skin to UV-Induced Tumorigenesis
Mice without the vitamin D receptor are more prone to UV-induced skin tumors.
research The Risks and Benefits of 5α-Reductase Inhibitors for Prostate-Cancer Prevention
5α-reductase inhibitors may prevent prostate cancer but could also raise the risk of more severe cancers.
research Insights into disparities observed with COVID‐19
Age, health conditions, race, and gender affect COVID-19 risk.
research Overexpression of insulin-like growth factor-1 induces hyperplasia, dermal abnormalities, and spontaneous tumor formation in transgenic mice
Overexpressing IGF-1 in mice leads to skin abnormalities and tumors.
research Increased copy number of the TERT and TERC telomerase subunit genes in cancer cells
Cancer cells often have more copies of TERT and TERC genes, which helps them grow and could affect patient outcomes.
research Wounding induces dedifferentiation of epidermal Gata6+ cells and acquisition of stem cell properties
Wounded skin cells can revert to stem cells and help heal.
research Pharmacokinetics, toxicity, and activity of intravenous dextran sulfate in human immunodeficiency virus infection
Dextran sulfate was found to be toxic and ineffective for treating HIV.
research Tactile innervation densities across the whole body
Young adults have about 230,000 tactile nerve fibers, decreasing 5-8% per decade with age.
research Rac1 Is Crucial for Hair Follicle Integrity but Is Not Essential for Maintenance of the Epidermis
Rac1 is vital for hair follicle health but not needed for skin maintenance.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Regulation of Involucrin Gene Expression
Involucrin gene expression is controlled by specific proteins and signaling pathways.
research Somatic stem cell heterogeneity: diversity in the blood, skin and intestinal stem cell compartments
Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
