research Androgens and hair growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research Dermatoses of pregnancy
Pregnancy can cause various skin changes and diseases, with PUPPP being the most common skin condition specific to pregnancy.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Fundamental hair follicle biology and fine fibre production in animals
Hair follicle growth and fiber production in animals are influenced by chemical signals, proteins, pigmentation, genetics, and nutrients.
research Hair cycle and hair pigmentation: dynamic interactions and changes associated with aging
As people age, their hair follicles produce less pigment, leading to gray and white hair, due to factors like reduced enzyme activity and damage to melanocyte DNA.
research The cell biology of human hair follicle pigmentation
We need more research on human hair follicle pigmentation, not just mouse models.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research The Pathobiology of Skin Aging
Skin aging is a complex process influenced by various factors, leading to wrinkles and sagging, and should be considered a disease due to its health impacts.
research Recent Advances in the Pathogenesis of Autoimmune Hair Loss Disease Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is caused by immune system attacks on hair follicles, often triggered by viral infections.
research Gene expression profiling gets to the root of human hair follicle stem cells
Human hair follicle stem cells can be isolated using specific markers for potential therapeutic use.
research Mutations in γ-secretase subunit–encoding PSENEN underlie Dowling-Degos disease associated with acne inversa
PSENEN gene mutations can cause both Dowling-Degos disease and acne inversa.
research Hardwiring Stem Cell Communication through Tissue Structure
The conclusion is that tissue structure is key for stem cell communication and maintaining healthy tissues.
research The Peripheral Clock Regulates Human Pigmentation
Certain genes control the color of human hair by affecting pigment production.
research Pharmacologic interventions in aging hair
Minoxidil and Finasteride are effective for male baldness; more research is needed for hair aging treatments.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Regulatory mutations in TBX3 disrupt asymmetric hair pigmentation that underlies Dun camouflage color in horses
Mutations in TBX3 cause horses to have more even hair color instead of Dun camouflage.
research Hair Depigmentation Is a Biological Readout for Pharmacological Inhibition of KIT in Mice and Humans
Hair color loss can indicate the effectiveness of a drug targeting the KIT protein in mice and humans.
research Vitiligo and alopecia areata: apples and oranges?
Vitiligo and alopecia areata may have similar causes despite their differences.
research Melanoblasts' Proper Location and Timed Differentiation Depend on Notch/RBP-J Signaling in Postnatal Hair Follicles
Notch/RBP-J signaling is crucial for proper placement and timing of melanocyte development in hair follicles.
research Hormonal control of pelage cycles in the short tailed weasel (Mustela erminea bangsi)
The pituitary gland controls seasonal fur color changes in weasels.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research The Skin POMC System (SPS): Leads and Lessons from the Hair Follicle
The Skin POMC System affects hair growth and skin responses to stress.
research Vitiligo
Vitiligo causes white skin patches and is linked to autoimmune issues.
research Change in Hair Color in Mice Induced by Injection of α-MSH
