research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research A role of placental growth factor in hair growth
Placental growth factor may help treat hair loss.
research Adipose stem cells isolated from diabetic mice improve cutaneous wound healing in streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice
Fat stem cells from diabetic mice can help heal skin wounds in other diabetic mice.
research Hair follicle germs containing vascular endothelial cells for hair regenerative medicine
Adding human blood vessel cells to hair follicle germs may improve hair growth and quality.
research Early-stage bilayer tissue-engineered skin substitute formed by adult skin progenitor cells produces an improved skin structure in vivo
Adult skin cell-based early-stage skin substitutes improve wound healing and hair growth in mice.
research Blackcurrant Extract with Phytoestrogen Activity Alleviates Hair Loss in Ovariectomized Rats
Blackcurrant extract may help reduce hair loss by promoting stem cell activity in hair follicles.
research Intrinsic activation of cell growth and differentiation in ex vivo cultured human hair follicles by a transient endogenous production of ROS
Temporary ROS production in cultured human hair follicles promotes growth and stem cell activation.
research Human keratinocytes derived from the bulge region of hair follicles are refractory to differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research Genome Array on Differentially Expressed Genes of Skin Tissue in Cashmere Goat at Early Anagen of Cashmere Growth Cycle Using DNA Microarray
Researchers found 24 genes that change significantly and affect cashmere growth in goats; this could help increase cashmere production.
research Isolating subpopulations of human epidermal basal cells based on polyclonal serum against trypsin-resistant CSPG4 epitopes
The research found a way to identify and study skin cells with stem cell traits, revealing they behave differently in culture and questioning current stemness assessment methods.
research Differential Expression of CXCL12 in Human and Mouse Hair: Androgens Induce CXCL12 in Human Dermal Papilla and Dermal Sheath Cup
Targeting CXCL12 may help treat hair loss caused by androgens.
research Epidermal retinol dehydrogenases cyclically regulate stem cell markers and clock genes and influence hair composition
Enzymes involved in Vitamin A metabolism affect hair growth and type in mice.
research Phloroglucinol Enhances Anagen Signaling and Alleviates H2O2-Induced Oxidative Stress in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Phloroglucinol may help improve hair loss by promoting hair growth and reducing oxidative stress.
research Transgenic mice display hair loss and regrowth overexpressing mutant Hr gene
Mice with a changed Hr gene lose and regrow hair due to changes in the gene's activity.
research Serum Granulysin Levels in Vitiligo and Alopecia Areata: A Potential Biomarker for Disease Activity and Dermoscopic Evaluation
Elevated granulysin levels may indicate disease activity in vitiligo and alopecia areata.
research The Effect of 5α-Reductase Inhibition With Dutasteride and Finasteride on Bone Mineral Density, Serum Lipoproteins, Hemoglobin, Prostate Specific Antigen and Sexual Function in Healthy Young Men
Dutasteride and finasteride do not significantly affect bone density, blood fats, or blood production, but slightly lower PSA levels and minimally impact sexual function in healthy young men.
research The Hair Follicle: A Paradoxical Androgen Target Organ
Androgens can both promote and prevent hair growth due to differences in gene expression in hair follicles.
research Defects in mitochondrial DNA replication and oxidative damage in muscle of mtDNA mutator mice
Defective mitochondrial DNA replication causes aging symptoms and increased oxidative damage in mice.
research Keratin Expression Provides Novel Insight into the Morphogenesis and Function of the Companion Layer in Hair Follicles
Keratin patterns in hair follicles help understand hair growth and potential hair and nail disorders.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Hair follicle changes following intense pulsed light axillary hair reduction: histometrical, histological and immunohistochemical evaluation
Intense pulsed light treatment effectively reduces underarm hair by making hair follicles smaller and extending their resting phase.
research TR3 is preferentially expressed by bulge epithelial stem cells in human hair follicles
TR3 is mainly found in hair follicle stem cells and may be involved in hair loss.
research Acanthosis nigricans in the knuckles: An early, accessible, straightforward, and sensitive clinical tool to predict insulin resistance
Darkened knuckles can be an early sign of insulin resistance.
research Correlation between increased total serum IgE levels and clinical features in alopecia areata patients
Higher IgE levels may play a role in alopecia areata, especially in males, children, and severe cases.
research Melan-A Positive cells significantly expressed in immune-targeted follicles of Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes may trigger the immune response in alopecia areata, affecting hair regrowth.
