510-540 / 1000+ results 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 Inherited ichthyoses/generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research Activation of TRPV3 Regulates Inflammatory Actions of Human Epidermal Keratinocytes
TRPV3 in skin cells causes inflammation and cell death.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Hair Follicle: A Novel Source of Multipotent Stem Cells for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a promising source for tissue repair and treating skin or hair diseases.
research Pathogenesis of Hand-Foot Syndrome induced by PEG-modified liposomal Doxorubicin
PEGL-DOX causes Hand-Foot Syndrome due to skin reactions from prolonged circulation and ROS generation.
research Hedgehog signaling maintains hair follicle stem cell phenotype in young and aged human skin
Hedgehog signaling helps keep hair follicle stem cells the same in both young and old human skin.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research MicroRNA/mRNA regulatory networks in the control of skin development and regeneration
MicroRNAs are crucial for controlling skin development and healing by regulating genes.
research 25 Years of Epidermal Stem Cell Research
Research on epidermal stem cells has advanced significantly, showing promise for improved clinical therapies.
research Bacteria induce skin regeneration via IL-1β signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.
research Hydroxyl radical mediates cisplatin-induced apoptosis in human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes through Bcl-2-dependent mechanism
Hydroxyl radicals cause hair follicle cell death during chemotherapy by reducing Bcl-2 protein levels.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Reciprocal role of vitamin D receptor on β-catenin regulated keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation
Vitamin D receptor helps control skin cell growth and hair development.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Defining Hair Follicles in the Age of Stem Cell Bioengineering
The study found that bioengineered hair follicles work when using cells from the same species but have issues when combining human and mouse cells.
research The Comparison of In Vitro Photosensitizing Efficacy of Curcumin-Loaded Liposomes Following Photodynamic Therapy on Melanoma MUG-Mel2, Squamous Cell Carcinoma SCC-25, and Normal Keratinocyte HaCaT Cells
Liposomal curcumin improves skin cancer treatment effectiveness while sparing normal cells.
research Epidermal expression of the truncated prelamin A causing Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome: effects on keratinocytes, hair and skin
Progerin affects cell shape but not hair or skin in mice.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) Promotes Wound Re-Epithelialisation in Frog and Human Skin
Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone helps heal wounds in frog and human skin.
research Establishment of an in vitro organoid model of dermal papilla of human hair follicle
Researchers developed a 3D model of human hair follicle cells that can help understand hair growth and test new hair loss treatments.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research The inductive effect of ginsenoside F2 on hair growth by altering the WNT signal pathway in telogen mouse skin
Ginsenoside F2 from ginseng may increase hair growth better than standard treatments by affecting cell growth signals.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Follicular dermal papilla structures by organization of epithelial and mesenchymal cells in interfacial polyelectrolyte complex fibers
Scientists created 3D hair-like structures that could help study hair growth and test treatments.
research Novel cosmeceuticals from plants—An industry guided review
Plant-based ingredients are effective and safe for modern skincare products.
