research Primary cicatricial alopecia: Recent advances in understanding and management
New understanding of the causes of primary cicatricial alopecia has led to better diagnosis and potential new treatments.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis implicates mediators of hair follicle development and morphogenesis in risk for severe acne
Genetic variations affecting skin structure play a key role in severe acne.
research Hoxc-Dependent Mesenchymal Niche Heterogeneity Drives Regional Hair Follicle Regeneration
Hoxc genes control hair growth through Wnt signaling.
research Fat, Stem Cells, and Platelet-Rich Plasma
The conclusion is that fat grafting is safe and effective but carries risks that need careful management.
research Expression of Foxi3 is regulated by ectodysplasin in skin appendage placodes
Foxi3 expression in developing teeth and hair is controlled by the ectodysplasin pathway.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research Nudging hair shedding by antidandruff shampoos. A comparison of 1% ketoconazole, 1% piroctone olamine and 1% zinc pyrithione formulations
All three shampoos reduced dandruff and hair loss, but ketoconazole and piroctone olamine also made hair thicker.
research Functional hair follicle regeneration: an updated review
Hair follicle regeneration possible, more research needed.
research Toward a Diagnostic Score in Cushing's Syndrome
The document suggests creating a validated score to diagnose Cushing's Syndrome and considers plasma steroid profiling as a simpler diagnostic method.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research The Role of Adipocytes in Tissue Regeneration and Stem Cell Niches
Fat cells are important for tissue repair and stem cell support in various body parts.
research Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing different hair and scalp diseases without surgery.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cells in the pigmentation of skin and its appendages: Biological patterning and therapeutic potentials
Understanding how melanocyte stem cells work could lead to new treatments for hair graying and skin pigmentation disorders.
research How to distinguish medicalization from over-medicalization?
The article suggests using four questions to tell apart necessary medicalization from excessive medicalization, focusing on problem significance, social expectations, medical understanding, and effective resolution.
research Physiologic changes of pregnancy: A review of the literature
Most pregnant women experience skin darkening and hair changes, with these effects usually going away after giving birth.
research Study ofDemodexmites: Challenges and Solutions
The conclusion is that a new biopsy technique and humidity chamber help study skin mites better and suggest mite overpopulation may cause skin diseases.
research Hair Growth: Focus on Herbal Therapeutic Agent
Some plants may help with hair growth and have fewer side effects than synthetic drugs, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness.
research A Review of Medical and Surgical Treatment Options for Androgenetic Alopecia
Use finasteride, minoxidil, and follicular unit transplantation for hair loss treatment.
research Prevalence of Common Skin Diseases and Their Associated Factors among Military Personnel in Korea: A Cross-sectional Study
Over 60% of Korean military personnel had skin diseases, commonly acne and athlete's foot, linked to service length and stress.
research Clinico-epidemiological and Mycological Aspects of Tinea Incognito in Iran: A 16-Year Study
Tinea incognito in Iran commonly affects adults and mimics other skin conditions.
research Hydrogen peroxide disrupts scarless fetal wound repair
Hydrogen peroxide can cause scars by changing healing processes and increasing certain protein levels.
research An overview of JAK/STAT pathways and JAK inhibition in alopecia areata
Blocking JAK/STAT pathways can help treat hair loss from alopecia areata.
research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
research Age-Related Changes in Male Skin: Quantitative Evaluation of One Hundred and Fifty Male Subjects
Male skin gets drier and more alkaline as it ages, which may need different skincare than women's skin.
research Critical study of hair growth analysis with computer-assisted methods
The Trichoscan system was found to be inaccurate for measuring hair growth, needing better software to be useful.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Drug Repurposing - Hypothesis, Molecular Aspects and Therapeutic Applications
