research Human iPS Cell-Derived Cell Aggregates Exhibited Dermal Papilla Cell Properties in in vitro Three-Dimensional Assemblage Mimicking Hair Follicle Structures
Scientists made structures that look like human hair follicles using stem cells, which could help grow hair without using actual human tissue.
research Key Factors in the Complex and Coordinated Network of Skin Keratinization: Their Significance and Involvement in Common Skin Conditions
Understanding keratinization is crucial for treating skin conditions like ichthyoses and psoriasis.
research Skin Appendage Proteins of Tetrapods: Building Blocks of Claws, Feathers, Hair and Other Cornified Epithelial Structures
Understanding proteins in skin structures like claws and hair is crucial for future research.
research Activation of Nrf2 in keratinocytes causes chloracne (MADISH)‐like skin disease in mice
Activating Nrf2 in skin cells causes skin disease similar to chloracne in mice.
research Aberrant Wnt Signaling Induces Comedo-Like Changes in the Murine Upper Hair Follicle
Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research (2015)
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Bioengineering the Hair Follicle
Bioengineering can potentially treat hair loss by regenerating hair follicles and cloning hair, but the process is complex and needs more research.
research Dynamic evaluation of pathological changes in a mouse acne model by optical imaging technology
New imaging techniques can assess and track changes in mouse acne without harm, aiding treatment choices.
research Extensive Nevus Comedonicus Along the Lines of Blaschko – Through the Eyes of Dermoscope and Histopathology
Treatment reduced cystic lesions but didn't change existing Nevus Comedonicus.
research Traumatic Anserine Folliculosis: A Case Report With Review of Differential Diagnosis
Traumatic anserine folliculosis is a harmless skin condition in young males that needs correct diagnosis to avoid unnecessary treatments.
research Nevus Lipomatosus Superficialis With Dilated Hair Follicles
Accurate diagnosis of NLS with dilated hair follicles is crucial to distinguish it from other conditions.
research Phospholipase C 1 is required for skin stem cell lineage commitment

research Disease causing homozygous variants in the human hairless gene
New and known mutations in the hairless gene cause a hair loss condition called Atrichia with papular lesions.
research A unique presentation of trichofolliculoma in amniotic band syndrome
Trichofolliculoma was found in a person with amniotic band syndrome for the first time.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
