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 Lupus erythematosus: systemic and cutaneous manifestations
Lupus affects the body and skin, causing joint pain and skin issues that can be treated with steroids and antimalarial drugs.
research Molecular mechanisms of viral oncogenesis in humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research A Perspective on RNAi-Based Biopesticides
RNAi-based biopesticides could be safe and effective for pest control with careful development and risk assessment.
research Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Regenerative Potency in Periodontium
Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.
research Exosomes for repair, regeneration and rejuvenation
Exosomes could potentially enhance tissue repair and regeneration with lower rejection risk and easier production than live cell therapies.
research Acne, the Skin Microbiome, and Antibiotic Treatment
Antibiotics can reduce acne but may lead to resistant bacteria, and understanding the skin's bacteria is important for treatment.
research Tregs: Where We Are and What Comes Next?
The conclusion is that Treg-targeted therapies have potential, but more knowledge of Treg biology is needed for effective treatments, including for cancer.
research dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
research Hormesis and medicine
Low doses of some substances can be beneficial, while high doses can be harmful or toxic.
research From causes of aging to death from COVID-19
Older age and related diseases increase COVID-19 risk, but anti-aging treatments might help.
research Cell death in the skin
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Janus kinase inhibitors in dermatology: A systematic review
JAK inhibitors help with skin conditions but need more research on dosing and safety.
research Regulatory T cells in skin
Skin's Regulatory T cells are crucial for maintaining skin health and could be targeted to treat immune-related skin diseases and cancer.
research Suprabasal Desmoglein 3 Expression in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Results in Hyperproliferation and Abnormal Differentiation
Overexpressing Dsg3 in mice skin causes excessive cell growth and abnormal skin development.
