research Diverse mechanisms for endogenous regeneration and repair in mammalian organs
Mammalian organs regenerate using stem cells and cell plasticity, but this ability declines with age.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research Telocytes in human skin – are they involved in skin regeneration?
Telocytes might help with skin repair and regeneration.
research Cartilage to bone transformation during fracture healing is coordinated by the invading vasculature and induction of the core pluripotency genes
Blood vessels and specific genes help turn cartilage into bone when bones heal.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research WNT Signaling in Disease
The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.
research Molecular mechanisms of viral oncogenesis in humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research Hair anatomy for the clinician
Understanding hair follicle anatomy helps diagnose hair disorders.
research Somatic stem cell heterogeneity: diversity in the blood, skin and intestinal stem cell compartments
Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
research Regenerating the skin: a task for the heterogeneous stem cell pool and surrounding niche
Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Hormesis and medicine
Low doses of some substances can be beneficial, while high doses can be harmful or toxic.
research MicroRNA-302 Increases Reprogramming Efficiency via Repression of NR2F2
MicroRNA-302 helps improve the conversion of body cells into stem cells by blocking NR2F2.
research From causes of aging to death from COVID-19
Older age and related diseases increase COVID-19 risk, but anti-aging treatments might help.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Careless talk costs lives: fibroblast growth factor receptor signalling and the consequences of pathway malfunction
Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling controls cell development and repair, and its malfunction can cause disorders and cancer, but it also offers potential for targeted therapies.
research Epidermal β-catenin activation remodels the dermis via paracrine signalling to distinct fibroblast lineages
Epidermal β-catenin activation changes the dermis by signaling different fibroblast types.
research Smoking and the skin
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Single-cell analysis of murine fibroblasts identifies neonatal to adult switching that regulates cardiomyocyte maturation
Adult fibroblasts help heart cells mature and improve heart function.
research Targeting the Wnt pathways for therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
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.
research Epidemiology and treatment modalities for the management of benign prostatic hyperplasia
More men are getting benign prostatic hyperplasia, and there are many treatments, from medication to surgery, with new methods being developed.
research The human hair: from anatomy to physiology
The document concludes that hair is complex, with a detailed growth cycle, structure, and clinical importance, affecting various scientific and medical fields.
research Development and homeostasis of the sebaceous gland
The document concludes that understanding the sebaceous gland's development and function is key to addressing related skin diseases and aging effects.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP injections improve hair thickness for baldness.
research Skin Adipocyte Stem Cell Self-Renewal Is Regulated by a PDGFA/AKT-Signaling Axis
PDGFA/AKT signaling is important for the growth and maintenance of certain skin fat cells.
research Quantitative Single-Cell Approaches to Stem Cell Research
New single-cell analysis techniques are improving our understanding of stem cells and could help in treating diseases.
