research Keratin 19 as a biochemical marker of skin stem cells in vivo and in vitro: keratin 19 expressing cells are differentially localized in function of anatomic sites, and their number varies with donor age and culture stage
Keratin 19 helps identify skin stem cells, with its presence varying by body location, age, and culture stage.
research Mitochondrial Complex I Activity Suppresses Inflammation and Enhances Bone Resorption by Shifting Macrophage-Osteoclast Polarization
Mitochondrial Complex I reduces inflammation and increases bone breakdown by affecting certain immune cells.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Minoxidil upregulates the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in human hair dermal papilla cells
Minoxidil boosts growth factor in hair cells, potentially promoting hair growth.
research Ethnicity, obesity and the prevalence of impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes in PCOS: a systematic review and meta-regression
Women with PCOS are more likely to have impaired glucose tolerance and type 2 diabetes, especially if they are Asian or obese.
research Demodicosis and rosacea: Epidemiology and significance in daily dermatologic practice
Demodicosis is common and often missed, needing more recognition and treatment in skin care.
research ATP-competitive mTOR kinase inhibitors delay plant growth by triggering early differentiation of meristematic cells but no developmental patterning change
Certain inhibitors slow down plant growth by causing early cell specialization without changing the cell development pattern.
research Androgenetic alopecia: a review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Ligand-Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor Maintain Hair Follicle Homeostasis
The vitamin D receptor is essential for normal hair growth, even without its usual binding.
research Vitamin D receptor is essential for normal keratinocyte stem cell function
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for normal hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research Metabolic and cellular analysis of alopecia in vitamin D receptor knockout mice
Alopecia in these mice is caused by defective hair cycle communication due to missing vitamin D receptor function, not vitamin D levels.
research Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Is an Autocrine Growth Factor for Hair Dermal Papilla Cells
research Comparison of finasteride (proscar®), a 5α reductase inhibitor, and various commercial plant extracts in in vitro and in vivo 5α reductase inhibition
Finasteride effectively inhibits 5α reductase, while plant extracts like Permixon and Bazoton don't show significant results.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Chronic inflammatory diseases are stimulated by current lifestyle: how diet, stress levels and medication prevent our body from recovering
Modern lifestyles, including poor diet, stress, and long-term use of certain medications, hinder the body's ability to heal from inflammation, leading to chronic diseases.
research Dental cell type atlas reveals stem and differentiated cell types in mouse and human teeth
The research identified various cell types in mouse and human teeth, which could help in developing dental regenerative treatments.
research Targeting Expression of the Human Vitamin D Receptor to the Keratinocytes of Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice Prevents Alopecia
Expressing the human vitamin D receptor in skin cells prevents hair loss in certain mice.
research Evaluation of Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation in Vitamin D Receptor Knockout Mice*
Alopecia in VDR knockout mice is due to a defect in hair cycle initiation, not keratinocyte issues.
research Mechanism of Vitamin D Receptor Action
Vitamin D receptor is essential for healthy bones and skin.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
