research Theoretical considerations in laser hair removal
Laser hair removal effectiveness depends on targeting hair structures without harming the skin, and improvements require more research and expert collaboration.
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 Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Unmet Medical Needs in Chronic, Non-communicable Inflammatory Skin Diseases
There are still challenges in diagnosing and treating chronic skin diseases, but there is hope for future improvements.
research Protective Role of Melatonin and Its Metabolites in Skin Aging
Melatonin, a hormone, can help protect skin from aging by reducing stress, inflammation, and damage, and may also help treat hair loss in women.
research Features Associated With Quality of Life Impairment in Hidradenitis Suppurativa Patients
Hidradenitis suppurativa severely impacts quality of life, especially with severe symptoms and certain comorbidities, and current treatments don't significantly improve it.
research Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex Caused by Distal Truncation of BPAG1-e: An Intermediate Generalized Phenotype with Prurigo Papules
A rare gene mutation causes skin fragility and itching without affecting hair or nails.
research Keratinocyte-derived follistatin regulates epidermal homeostasis and wound repair
Activin activation in skin cells speeds up wound healing without affecting scar quality.
research Efficacy of subcutaneous injection of platelet-rich plasma in alopecia: A clinical and histological pilot study on a rat model with a six-month long-term follow-up experience
Injecting platelet-rich plasma under the skin significantly improves hair growth and quality without harmful effects.
research Physiological and retinoid-induced proliferations of epidermis basal keratinocytes are differently controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Metabolic and transcriptomic reprogramming during contact inhibition-induced quiescence is mediated by YAP-dependent and YAP-independent mechanisms
Quiescent cells have increased mitochondrial activity and ECM gene expression, but reduced glycolysis.
research USES OF ONION (Allium cepa L.) & ALOE VERA (Aloe barbadensis Miller) POST HAIR DYE TREATMENT
Onion and Aloe vera can help protect hair from damage caused by hair dyes.
research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun

research Field Cancerization: From Molecular Basis to Selective Field-Directed Management of Actinic Keratosis
Photodynamic therapy is the preferred treatment for skin precancer due to its effectiveness and safety.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research Hair-on-hair static friction coefficient can be determined by tying a knot
Tying a knot can measure hair friction, useful for medical applications.
research The Treatment of Chinese Medicine on Adolescent Alopecia
Traditional Chinese medicine improved hair loss in a teenager with alopecia.
research Hair Loss and Hirsutism Management
Low-level light therapy, possibly combined with other treatments, may become a leading hair loss treatment, while hirsutism often worsens with age and lacks preventive options.
research Sebocytes are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research MicroRNA in skin diseases
Certain microRNAs are linked to various skin diseases and could be used to diagnose and treat these conditions.
research Evaluating the antioxidant effects of human hair protein extracts
Human hair protein extracts can protect skin cells from oxidative stress.
research Structural Abnormalities in the Hair of a Patient with a Novel Ribosomopathy
The patient's hair was thinner and had fewer lipids due to a genetic mutation.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Building Epithelial Tissues from Skin Stem Cells
Skin stem cells help maintain skin health, grow hair, and heal wounds.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Human hair follicles are an extrarenal source and a nonhematopoietic target of erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
