research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research From Telogen to Exogen: Mechanisms Underlying Formation and Subsequent Loss of the Hair Club Fiber
Hair shedding is an active process that could be targeted to treat hair loss.
research Scalable production of controllable dermal papilla spheroids on PVA surfaces and the effects of spheroid size on hair follicle regeneration
Larger spheroids improve hair growth, but size doesn't guarantee thicker hair.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Cell Types Promoting Goosebumps Form a Niche to Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.
research Bioengineering a 3D integumentary organ system from iPS cells using an in vivo transplantation model
Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.
research Hair follicles’ transit-amplifying cells govern concurrent dermal adipocyte production through Sonic Hedgehog
Cells in hair follicles help create fat cells in the skin by releasing a protein called Sonic Hedgehog.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Understanding autoimmunity of vitiligo and alopecia areata
Both vitiligo and alopecia areata involve an immune response triggered by stress and specific genes, with treatments targeting this pathway showing potential.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research mTOR signaling promotes stem cell activation via counterbalancing BMP-mediated suppression during hair regeneration
mTOR signaling helps activate hair stem cells by balancing out the suppression caused by BMP during hair growth.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Toll-Like Receptor Function in Acute Wounds
Toll-like receptors are important for wound healing, but can slow it down in diabetic wounds.
research Compartmentalized organization: a common and required feature of stem cell niches?
Compartmentalized organization might be crucial for stem cells to effectively respond to growth or injury.
research Keratin 79 identifies a novel population of migratory epithelial cells that initiates hair canal morphogenesis and regeneration
Keratin 79 marks a new group of cells that are key for creating and repairing the hair follicle's structure.
research Multi-layered environmental regulation on the homeostasis of stem cells: The saga of hair growth and alopecia
Environmental factors at different levels control hair stem cell activity, which could lead to new hair growth and alopecia treatments.
research Genome-wide association study in Japanese females identifies fifteen novel skin-related trait associations
Researchers found 15 new genetic links to skin traits in Japanese women.
research GWAS for male-pattern baldness identifies 71 susceptibility loci explaining 38% of the risk
Researchers found 71 genetic regions linked to male pattern baldness, which account for 38% of its genetic risk.
research New insights into the functions of Cox-2 in skin and esophageal malignancies
Cox-2 significantly contributes to the development and progression of skin and esophageal cancers.
research Modulating hair follicle size with W nt10b/DKK 1 during hair regeneration
Wnt10b makes hair follicles bigger, but DKK1 can reverse this effect.
research Phenotypic Diversity and Mutation Spectrum in Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
Different harmful mutations in the CDH3 gene cause HJMD, but symptoms vary among individuals.
research Identification of Ectodysplasin Target Genes Reveals the Involvement of Chemokines in Hair Development
Chemokine signaling is important for hair development.
research Cultured human and rat tooth papilla cells induce hair follicle regeneration and fiber growth
Tooth papilla cells can help regenerate hair follicles and grow hair.
research Microneedle-Based Approaches for Skin Disease Treatment
Microneedles offer a promising, painless way to treat skin diseases but need improvements for better use.
research Sustained release of dermal papilla-derived extracellular vesicles from injectable microgel promotes hair growth
Injecting a special gel with human protein particles can help hair grow.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
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 Androgen modulation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling in androgenetic alopecia
Androgens may block hair growth signals, targeting this could treat hair loss.
