Higher IL-31 levels are linked to worse itching in chronic kidney disease patients.
research Disorders of Keratinization
The chapter explains that there are many genetic skin disorders affecting skin cell formation, including both common and rare types.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Miniorgan
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Colon Cancer Stem Cells: Promise of Targeted Therapy

Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in diseases and healing, and more research on them could improve treatments.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Vitamin D metabolism and function in the skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research The role of tight junctions in skin barrier function and dermal absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Age-associated inflammation inhibits epidermal stem cell function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research A Novel Human Type II Cytokeratin, K6hf, Specifically Expressed in the Companion Layer of the Hair Follicle
K6hf is a unique protein found only in a specific layer of hair follicles.
research Experimental Induction of Alopecia Areata-Like Hair Loss in C3H/HeJ Mice Using Full-Thickness Skin Grafts
Skin grafts on mice can cause an immune response leading to hair loss, useful for studying human hair loss conditions.
research Epithelial Skin Biology
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Function and underlying mechanisms of seasonal colour moulting in mammals and birds: what keeps them changing in a warming world?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research Control of hair follicle cell fate by underlying mesenchyme through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 regulatory axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Identifying novel strategies for treating human hair loss disorders: Cyclosporine A suppresses the Wnt inhibitor, SFRP1, in the dermal papilla of human scalp hair follicles
Cyclosporine A may help treat hair loss by blocking a protein that inhibits hair growth.
research Mechanical forces in skin disorders
Skin problems can be caused or worsened by physical forces and pressure on the skin.
research The role of lymphocytes in the development and treatment of alopecia areata
Lymphocytes, especially CD8+ T cells, play a key role in causing alopecia areata, and targeting them may lead to new treatments.
research Alopecia areata: a review on diagnosis, immunological etiopathogenesis and treatment options
The document concludes that while there are various treatments for Alopecia Areata, there is no cure, and individualized treatment plans are essential due to varying effectiveness.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Keratinocytes regulate the function of melanocytes
Keratinocytes control how melanocytes work.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
