Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research Keratinocytes maintain compartmentalization between dermal papilla and fibroblasts in 3D heterotypic tri‐cultures
Keratinocytes help keep hair follicle cells and skin cells separate in 3D cultures, which is important for hair growth research.
research Minoxidil: Inhibition of Proliferation of Keratinocytes In Vitro
Minoxidil slows down keratinocyte growth without being toxic.
research Chi-miR-30b-5p inhibits dermal papilla cells proliferation by targeting CaMKIIδ gene in cashmere goat
A specific microRNA, chi-miR-30b-5p, slows down the growth of hair-related cells by affecting the CaMKIIδ gene in cashmere goats.
research Nanocarrier Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery
Nanocarriers could improve how drugs are delivered through the skin but require more research to overcome challenges and ensure safety.
research Evaluating the antioxidant effects of human hair protein extracts
Human hair protein extracts can protect skin cells from oxidative stress.
research Sex Hormones and Antiandrogens Influence In Vitro Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells and Outer Root Sheath Keratinocytes of Human Hair Follicles.
Certain sex hormones and antiandrogens can either slow down or speed up the growth of human hair follicle cells depending on their concentration.
research The role of anemia and vitamin D levels in acute and chronic telogen effluvium
Low iron levels are a significant risk factor for hair loss, while high vitamin D levels might be a response to hair loss, not a cause.
research Effects of 1?,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D3 and calcipotriol on organotypic cultures of outer root sheath cells: a potential model to evaluate antipsoriatic drugs
Vitamin D compounds may help treat psoriasis by promoting skin cell differentiation.
research New small molecules in dermatology: for the autoimmunity, inflammation and beyond
New small molecule drugs show promise in treating complex skin diseases but need more safety research.
research Xenobiotics in Vitro: The Influence ofL -Cystine, Pantothenat, and Miliacin on Metabolic and Proliferative Capacity of Keratinocytes
L-cystine, D-pantothenat, and miliacin together significantly boost keratinocyte growth and metabolism.
research A review of the etiologies, clinical characteristics, and treatment of canities
Gray hair is caused by reduced melanin production or transfer issues, linked to aging and possibly health conditions, with treatments focusing on color camouflage.
research Correction of Hair Shaft Defects through Allele-Specific Silencing of Mutant Krt75
