research BMP-FGF Signaling Axis Mediates Wnt-Induced Epidermal Stratification in Developing Mammalian Skin
Wnt signaling is essential for forming the skin's spinous layer through a BMP-FGF pathway.
research Androgenetic alopecia in men and women
Androgenetic alopecia involves genetics, hormones, and can be treated with medications or surgery.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Comparison of Healthy and Dandruff Scalp Microbiome Reveals the Role of Commensals in Scalp Health
Certain bacteria and fungi are linked to healthy scalps and dandruff, suggesting that the scalp's microbial balance affects its health.
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 Apoptosis and cutaneous biology
Apoptosis is crucial for healthy skin and treating skin diseases.
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 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 Autoimmunity and autoimmune co-morbidities in psoriasis
Psoriasis is linked to other autoimmune diseases and involves a specific inflammatory process.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Immune modulation of hair follicle regeneration
Immune cells help regulate hair growth, and better understanding this can improve hair loss treatments.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Inactivation of autophagy leads to changes in sebaceous gland morphology and function
Autophagy is crucial for normal sebaceous gland function and sebum composition.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Macrophage-Stimulating Protein Promotes Hair Growth Ex Vivo and Induces Anagen from Telogen Stage Hair Follicles In Vivo
Macrophage-stimulating protein helps hair grow and can start hair growth phase in mice and human hair samples.
research Protective Role of Nutritional Plants Containing Flavonoids in Hair Follicle Disruption: A Review
Some plants with flavonoids may help treat hair loss and promote hair growth.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Review
Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia's cause is unclear, affects mainly postmenopausal women, and current treatments focus on stopping hair loss rather than regrowth.
research Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Newborn infant skin gene expression: Remarkable differences versus adults
Newborn skin is uniquely prepared to adapt to new environments compared to adult skin.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research Accelerated senescence in skin in a murine model of radiation-induced multi-organ injury
High-dose radiation speeds up aging in skin stem cells.
research 6-Gingerol Inhibits Hair Shaft Growth in Cultured Human Hair Follicles and Modulates Hair Growth in Mice
6-Gingerol, found in ginger, may slow down hair growth and could be used for hair removal.
research The use of polyethylenimine–DNA to topically deliver hTERT to promote hair growth
Using polyethylenimine-DNA to deliver the hTERT gene can stimulate hair growth and may be useful in treating hair loss, but there could be potential cancer risks.
research Contact dermatitis to phenol‐formaldehyde resin in two plywood factory workers
Two plywood factory workers developed contact dermatitis from phenol-formaldehyde resin, a known allergen.
research IMMUNOPATHOLOGY OF THE HUMAN HAIR FOLLICLE
