Losing eyelashes or eyebrows can be a sign of many different health problems and needs a careful approach to treat effectively.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Skin and hair: models for exploring organ regeneration
Skin and hair can help us understand organ regeneration, especially how certain stem cells might be used to form new organs.
research Effect of Long-Term Fluticasone Treatment on Immune Function in Horses with Heaves
Long-term fluticasone treatment does not harm the immune system in horses with heaves.
research Use of extracellular matrix hydrogel from human placenta to restore hair-inductive potential of dermal papilla cells
Human placenta hydrogel helps restore cells needed for hair growth.
research Reconstructed human skin shows epidermal invagination towards integrated neopapillae indicating early hair follicle formation in vitro
The experiment showed that human skin grown in the lab started to form early hair structures when special cell clusters were added.
research Combination of media, biomaterials and extracellular matrix proteins to enhance the differentiation of neural stem/precursor cells into neurons
Using certain small proteins with a growth factor and specific materials can increase the creation of neurons from stem cells.
research Modulating Mesenchymal Stem Cell Behavior Using Human Hair Keratin-Coated Surfaces
Coating surfaces with human hair keratin improves the growth and consistency of important stem cells for medical use.
research Effect of minoxidil on rabbit lens epithelial cell behavior in vitro and in situ
Minoxidil may help prevent capsular opacification after cataract surgery.
research Ashy Dermatosis
Ashy dermatosis may be linked to atopy and thyroid disease and can be treated with topical steroids.
research Prevention of lipid loss from hair by surface and internal modification
Surface and internal treatments can help prevent hair lipid loss during washing.
research Hair Morphology in Androgenetic Alopecia
Abnormal cuticle and hair shaft medulla cause hair loss in androgenetic alopecia; sonography helps diagnose and manage it.
research Sensitization to saw palmetto and minoxidil in separate topical extemporaneous treatments for androgenetic alopecia
Saw palmetto causes allergic reaction, minoxidil causes skin irritation; use cautiously for hair loss.
research New treatments for rheumatoid arthritis
New drugs for rheumatoid arthritis show improvement but have side effects and are not a cure.
research Dermatopathology and molecular genetics
Combining skin tissue pathology with genetics has greatly improved the diagnosis and understanding of certain skin diseases.
research Platelet rich plasma in androgenetic alopecia: A systematic review
Not enough evidence to support using platelet rich plasma for hair loss treatment.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research Functional wound dressings
Modern wound dressings like hydrocolloids, alginates, and hydrogels improve healing and are cost-effective.
research Targeting the stem cell niche: role of collagen XVII in skin aging and wound repair
Collagen XVII is important for skin aging and wound healing.
research α-parvin is required for epidermal morphogenesis, hair follicle development and basal keratinocyte polarity
α-parvin is necessary for skin and hair growth and for the correct orientation of skin cells.
research Split skin graft “from scalp to scalp” for repairing large surgical defects
Scalp-to-scalp skin grafts quickly heal and hide well under regrown hair, making them good for repairing large scalp defects.
research The effects of melatonin treatment on wool production and hair follicle cycle in angora rabbits
Melatonin treatment increases wool production and improves fiber quality in angora rabbits.
research Obesity and female androgenic alopecia: A cause and an effect?
Obesity may contribute to female hair loss by increasing male hormone levels that affect hair follicles.
research Integrin α3β1 in hair bulge stem cells modulates CCN2 expression and promotes skin tumorigenesis
Removing integrin α3β1 from hair stem cells lowers skin tumor growth by affecting CCN2 protein levels.
research Canonical and non-canonical Wnt signaling control the regeneration of amputated rodent vibrissae follicles
Both main and alternative Wnt signaling are important for regrowing rodent whisker follicles.
