research 1338 Dermal Wnt/β-catenin activation tunably controls hair follicle initiation
Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.
research Alopecia
The document concludes that alopecia has significant social and psychological effects, leading to a market for hair loss treatments.
research Lichen planopilaris
Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research The quantification of reproductive hormones in the hair of captive adult brown bears and their application as indicators of sex and reproductive state
Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.
research Role of bulge epidermal stem cells and TSLP signaling in psoriasis
Blocking TSLP reduces skin inflammation and cell overgrowth in psoriasis.
research A doxycycline- and light-inducible Cre recombinase mouse model for optogenetic genome editing
The DiLiCre mouse model is an effective tool for precise genome editing using light.
research Differential diagnosis of posterior scalp hair loss
Early and accurate diagnosis of posterior scalp hair loss is crucial for effective treatment and better outcomes.
research KIF18B is a cell-type specific regulator of spindle orientation in the epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Chemotherapy-induced alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes temporary hair loss, which is distressing and needs better treatment and support.
research 'Atrophic telogen effluvium' from cytotoxic drugs and a randomized controlled trial to investigate the possible protective effect of pretreatment with a topical vitamin D3 analogue in humans
Topical vitamin D3 does not prevent hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
