UVA1-light therapy successfully treated a child's skin condition, mycosis fungoides.
research Permanent chemotherapy-induced alopecia after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation treated with low-dose oral minoxidil
The document concludes that low-dose oral minoxidil successfully regrew hair in a patient with permanent hair loss after chemotherapy and stem cell transplant.
research The effect of 5-α reductase inhibitor on Th1, Th2, and Th17 cell-related inflammatory response in BPH
Finasteride reduces some inflammation in BPH but not all.
research C003 Histopathology of the alopecias
Examining scalp tissue under a microscope helps diagnose and understand hair loss diseases.
research Beta Human Papillomavirus and Merkel Cell Polyomavirus in Skin Neoplasms
Beta-HPV and MCPyV are linked to certain skin cancers, with ongoing research and vaccine development.
research The spectrum of hair loss in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome
Some patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome experience hair loss, which may be similar to alopecia areata or linked to skin lesions, possibly due to abnormal T cells, and bexarotene can help treat it.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research Advancements and challenges in stem cell transplantation for regenerative medicine
Stem cell transplantation shows promise for treating diseases but faces challenges like safety, ethics, and cost.
research Spontaneous tumour regression in keratoacanthomas is driven by Wnt/retinoic acid signalling cross-talk
Skin tumor regression is helped by retinoic acid signaling blocking Wnt signaling.
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 Alopecia Mucinosa of the Face Associated With Mycosis Fungoides
Alopecia mucinosa on the face can be linked to mycosis fungoides, a type of lymphoma.
research Immunological aspects and gender bias during respiratory viral infections including novel Coronavirus disease‐19 (COVID‐19): A scoping review
Men are more likely to have severe respiratory viral infections like COVID-19 due to hormonal and genetic differences, while women generally have stronger immune responses.
research Special Stains and Immunohistochemical Stains in Hair Pathology
Special and immunohistochemical stains are not routinely needed for diagnosing hair disorders.
research Acral lymphomatoid papulosis
