research Prostate cancer and androgenic alopecia
The document suggests more research is needed to understand the link between baldness and prostate cancer.
research Alopecias cicatriciais primárias: revisão de achados histopatológicos de 37 pacientes do Departamento de Dermatologia do Hospital das Clínicas da Faculdade de Medicina da Universidade de São Paulo no período de 2000 a 2005
Accurate diagnosis of cicatricial alopecias requires thorough scalp examination and multiple biopsy techniques.
research Dermatological adverse events with taxane chemotherapy
Taxane chemotherapy can cause skin, hair, and nail side effects, which are often under-reported and can affect patient quality of life.
research Localized cutaneous necrosis associated with the antiphospholipid syndrome
A woman with lupus experienced skin death due to a blood clotting disorder after stopping a blood thinner, which healed with treatment.
research Infliximab-Associated Psoriasiform Alopecia
Stopping infliximab and using strong topical steroids can regrow hair lost due to psoriasiform alopecia.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Effect of Ficus carica leaf extract on the gene expression of selected factors in HaCaT cells
Ficus carica leaf extract may help treat skin disorders by reducing inflammation and androgen effects in skin cells.
research Hair(y) Matters in Melanoma Biology
The document concludes that the immune-inhibitory environment of the hair follicle may prevent melanoma development.
research Teaching dermatosurgery
Dermatology residents need thorough training in dermatosurgery for better patient outcomes.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research Fondation René Touraine
The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Racial and Gender Influences on Skin Disease
Different races and genders have unique skin and hair issues, requiring specialized care and more research for effective treatment.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Current applications of high-frequency ultrasonography in dermatology
High-frequency ultrasonography is a useful but underused tool in dermatology for assessing skin cancers, monitoring diseases, and evaluating treatments.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research WNT10A promotes an invasive and self-renewing phenotype in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
WNT10A helps esophageal cancer cells spread and keep renewing themselves.
research Defining the Localization and Molecular Characteristic of Minor Salivary Gland Label-Retaining Cells
The study found stem cells in minor salivary glands that can differentiate and are involved in tumor formation when exposed to tobacco.
research Function of KLF4 in Stem Cell Biology
KLF4 is important for maintaining stem cells and has potential in cancer treatment and wound healing.
research Cell death as an architect of adult skin stem cell niches
Cell death shapes skin stem cell environments, affecting inflammation, repair, and cancer.
research Follicular and Scarring Disorders in Skin of Color: Presentation and Management
The conclusion is that better understanding and more research are needed to effectively manage follicular and scarring disorders in skin of color, with an emphasis on patient education and cultural awareness.
research Cutaneous Manifestations in Biological-Treated Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients: A Narrative Review
Biologic treatments for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis can cause skin problems, and doctors should adjust treatment if these occur.
research 268 Use of ultra-fast one-step CK5 ihc for identifying bcc and scc during mohs surgery
A new one-step test can quickly identify skin cancer during surgery.
research Beyond Hormones: A Systematic Review of the Risk of Cardiovascular Diseases in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with PCOS have a higher risk of heart disease due to factors like insulin resistance and obesity.
research DNA Methylation as an Epigenetic Memory Keeper during Skin Development and Regeneration
DNA methylation is essential for skin and hair follicle development, and could be a target for treating skin diseases.
research Angiosarcoma of the Scalp Mimicking an Inflammatory Scarring Alopecia and Diagnosed on Horizontal Histologic Sections
Rare skin cancer can mimic hair loss conditions, so thorough diagnosis is crucial.
research Fibonacci sequence ‘snail’ flap versus skin grafts in scalp reconstruction: a comparative study
The Fibonacci 'snail' flap heals faster and looks better than skin grafts for scalp reconstruction.
research Scalp Apocrine Glands: The Neglected Component of the Hair Follicle Complex
Scalp apocrine glands may help remove waste and balance electrolytes, but their role is not fully understood.
research A cross-sectional study of clinical, dermoscopic, histopathological, and molecular patterns of scalp melanoma in patients with or without androgenetic alopecia
Scalp melanoma is often diagnosed late in people with hair loss, leading to worse outcomes.
