research Scalp Itch: A Systematic Review
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis and treatment of scalp itch require differentiating between various conditions using a proposed five-step evaluation process.
research Diversity of Adult Stem Cell Niches in the Dermal Compartment of Skin
The skin's dermal layer contains true stem cells with diverse functions and interactions that need more research to fully understand.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Molecular biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Medical uses of Carthamus tinctorius L. (Safflower): a comprehensive review from Traditional Medicine to Modern Medicine
More research is needed to confirm safflower's traditional medicinal uses.
research Traditional uses, phytochemistry, pharmacology, toxicity and clinical application of traditional Chinese medicine Cynoglossum amabile: a review
Cynoglossum amabile has medicinal potential but poses safety concerns due to liver toxicity.
research KCNQ Potassium Channels Modulate Sensitivity of Skin Down-hair (D-hair) Mechanoreceptors
KCNQ potassium channels help control the sensitivity of touch receptors in the skin.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Delta Opioid Receptors Presynaptically Regulate Cutaneous Mechanosensory Neuron Input to the Spinal Cord Dorsal Horn
Delta opioid receptors help regulate touch sensation by reducing neurotransmitter release in the spinal cord.
research Comment on scalp neuropathy in androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss in men (androgenetic alopecia) is significantly linked to decreased scalp sensitivity, but not temperature sensitivity. More research is needed to confirm this. Comparing this hair loss to leprosy is unsupported and stigmatizing.
research Innervation Patterns of Harp Seal (Pagophilus groenlandicus) Vibrissal Sensory Systems
Harp seals have different innervation patterns in their whiskers, with lateral whiskers having more axons than medial ones.
research Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Regulates Skin Nerve Outgrowth and Branching
EGFR is essential for organized skin nerve growth and branching.
research The sensory innervation of primate facial skin. II. Vermilion border and mucosa of lip
Monkey lips have dense sensory nerves similar to those in other skin areas, explaining their sensitivity.
research Sympathetic Reinnervation of Intact and Upper Follicle Xenografts into BALB/c-nu/nu Mice
Transplanted rat hair follicles grew hair and had increased but not fully restored nerve connections in mice.
research Robust coupling between the C‐tactile afferent and the hair follicle in humans
C-tactile nerves are sensitive to hair movement.
research Hair-Cycle-Associated Remodeling of the Peptidergic Innervation of Murine Skin, and Hair Growth Modulation by Neuropeptides
Neuropeptides affect hair growth, with some speeding it up and others slowing it down.
research European Olive (Olea europaea L.) as a Source of Cosmetically Valuable Raw Materials: A Narrative Review of Bioactive Constituents, Their Biological Mechanisms, and Applications
European olive products are beneficial for skin care and are expected to become more important.
research A subpopulation of itch‐sensing neurons marked by Ret and somatostatin expression
Scientists found a specific group of itch-sensing nerve cells in mice important for feeling itch but not for sensing heat or touch.
research Progress in studies of epidermal stem cells and their application in skin tissue engineering
Epidermal stem cells show promise for skin repair and regeneration.
research The cellular basis of mechanosensory Merkel-cell innervation during development
BMP signaling is essential for the development of touch domes.
research Hyperinnervation inhibits organ-level regeneration in mammalian skin
Reducing nerve growth can help skin regenerate after birth.
research Novel Technologies for Exploring the Skin–Brain Axis
Advanced technologies can improve understanding and monitoring of skin-brain interactions.
research Joint Public Review: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and nerve function in mice.
research Author Response: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
The transcription factor Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve development in touch receptors.
research Whole-Genome Resequencing Reveals Selection Signal Related to Sheep Wool Fineness
Genes linked to wool fineness in sheep have been identified.
research Corneodesmosin gene ablation induces lethal skin-barrier disruption and hair-follicle degeneration related to desmosome dysfunction
Deleting the CDSN gene causes severe skin and hair problems, leading to death.
research Desmoglein 4 is regulated by transcription factors implicated in hair shaft differentiation
Desmoglein 4 is controlled by specific proteins that affect hair growth.
research Hair follicle stem cells as a skin‐organizing signaling center during adult homeostasis
Hair follicle stem cells help maintain skin health and could improve skin replacement therapies.
research Lanceolate hair-J (lahJ ): A mouse model for human hair disorders
The Lanceolate hair-J mutation in mice mimics human hair disorders like Netherton's syndrome.
