research Organotypic Skin Culture
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research LOOSE ANAGEN SYNDROME AND LOOSE ANAGEN HAIR
Loose Anagen Syndrome causes easy-to-pull, thin hair, mainly in young girls, and improves with age.
research Chapter 6 Fetal Skin Wound Healing
Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.
research Development, Characterization, and Use of a Fetal Skin Cell Bank for Tissue Engineering in Wound Healing
Fetal skin cells from a cell bank heal wounds faster and with less scarring than adult cells.
research Loose anagen hair syndrome
Loose Anagen Syndrome is a hair condition where hairs can be easily pulled out, mainly affecting young girls, and may improve on its own or with treatment.
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 Human skin
Estrogen deficiency, like after menopause or certain surgeries, leads to faster skin aging and health issues.
research Bioengineering Skin Constructs
Future research should focus on making bioengineered skin that completely restores all skin functions.
research Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome in a Saudi Girl
A Saudi girl was diagnosed with Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome, a rare condition causing easy hair loss without scarring.
research P133 Late onset loose anagen syndrome
Adults can develop late-onset loose anagen syndrome, which may often be misdiagnosed.
research Skin signs in anorexia nervosa
Anorexia nervosa can cause skin problems, which may help with early diagnosis and usually improve with treatment.
research Grand challenges in dermatologic drug discovery: four priorities to transform skin disease treatment
Transforming skin disease treatment requires new strategies, better drug models, and patient-focused research.
research Skin Disorders
Older adults often have skin problems due to aging, and treating these conditions requires attention to both physical and mental health.
research Skin shedding and tissue regeneration in African spiny mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research De Novo Regeneration of Rete Ridges during Cetacean skin wound healing
Fraser's Dolphin can heal skin wounds with minimal scarring, unlike humans.
research Assessment of the Embryological Origin, Anatomical and Histological Structure of the Skin
The skin is vital for protection, temperature control, fluid balance, immunity, and sensing, with damage affecting daily life and mental health.
research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research Bioengineering skin using mechanisms of regeneration and repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Physiologic skin changes in pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause skin darkening, varicose veins, more sweating, hair growth, hair loss after birth, nail changes, and gum inflammation.
research From skin microrelief to wrinkles. An area ripe for investigation
Wrinkles form due to structural skin changes and vary in type and treatment response.
research Transfollicular Drug Delivery: Penetration of Drugs Through Human Scalp Skin and Comparison of Penetration Between Scalp and Abdominal Skins In Vitro
Drugs penetrate scalp skin better than abdominal skin, with scalp hair follicles aiding in higher drug delivery.
research Loose Anagen Hair as a Cause of Hereditary Hair Loss in Children
Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome is a hereditary condition causing hair loss in children due to abnormal hair follicles.
research The Skin in Pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause normal skin changes that usually go away after childbirth and don't need treatment.
research Abnormal inner root sheath of the hair follicle in the loose anagen hair syndrome: An ultrastructural study
Loose anagen hair syndrome is caused by structural abnormalities in the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Skin Manifestations of Insulin Resistance: From a Biochemical Stance to a Clinical Diagnosis and Management
Certain skin conditions can indicate insulin resistance and should prompt lifestyle changes and medical treatment to manage underlying health issues.
research Trichoscopy findings in loose anagen hair syndrome: rectangular granular structures and solitary yellow dots
Rectangular black granules, solitary yellow dots, and mostly single-hair follicles suggest Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome.
research Long pulsed Nd: YAG laser with inbuilt cool sapphire tip for long term hair reduction on type- IV and V skin: A prospective analysis of 200 patients
Long pulsed Nd: YAG laser is safe and effective for long-term hair reduction in darker skin types.
research Mechanotransductive Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells Derived from Aged Eyelid Skin into Corneal Endothelial-Like Cells
Hair follicle stem cells from aged eyelid skin can become corneal endothelial-like cells for potential eye treatments.
