research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Selective follicular targeting by modification of the particle sizes
Medium-sized particles penetrate hair follicles better than smaller or larger ones, which could improve delivery of skin treatments.
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 Minoxidil topical treatment may be more efficient if applied on damp scalp in comparison with dry scalp
Minoxidil works better when applied on a damp scalp than a dry one.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research The use of phosphodiesterase inhibitors for the treatment of alopecia
Caffeine shows promise for treating some types of hair loss, but more research is needed.
research Pentoxifylline-Loaded Liposome Development, Characterization, and In Vitro Release Kinetics: Box-Behnken Design-Based Optimization.

research 1415 Induction of human hair growth using vascularized 3D hair follicle constructs
Researchers created a 3D-printed skin model that grew human hair when grafted onto mice by improving blood supply to the grafts.
research Androgen Biosynthesis and Gene Defects
Gene mutations can cause problems in male genital development.
research Calreticulin: non‐endoplasmic reticulum functions in physiology and disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research Leucine-Rich Repeat-Containing G-Protein-Coupled Receptors as Markers of Adult Stem Cells
Certain proteins, Lgr5 and Lgr6, are important markers of adult stem cells and are involved in tissue repair and cancer development.
research Intradermal adipocytes mediate fibroblast recruitment during skin wound healing
Fat cells help recruit healing cells and build skin structure during wound healing.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Targeting the Wnt pathways for therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
research Targeting Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway for Developing Therapies for Hair Loss
Activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Nanocrystals of medium soluble actives—Novel concept for improved dermal delivery and production strategy
Nanocrystals improve skin penetration and stability of caffeine, suggesting a new method for delivering similar substances through the skin.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Endogenous retinoids in the hair follicle and sebaceous gland
