research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
research Endocrinology of Transgender Medicine
Hormone treatments for transgender individuals generally improve mental health and physical transition, with some health risks that require medical supervision.
research Melanogenesis During the Anagen-Catagen-Telogen Transformation of the Murine Hair Cycle
Hair stops producing melanin as it transitions from the growth phase to the resting phase.
research The reliability of horizontally sectioned scalp biopsies in the diagnosis of chronic diffuse telogen hair loss in women
Horizontally sectioned scalp biopsies are more reliable for diagnosing hair loss in women when three samples are taken instead of one.
research Expression patterns of three estrogen receptor genes during zebrafish (Danio rerio) development: evidence for high expression in neuromasts
The three estrogen receptor genes are highly expressed in zebrafish neuromasts during development.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA is a scarring hair loss condition mainly in African descent women, possibly caused by genetics and hairstyling, treated with gentle hair care and medications.
research Premature Graying as a Consequence of Compromised Antioxidant Activity in Hair Bulb Melanocytes and Their Precursors
Gray hair may be caused by lower antioxidant activity in hair cells.
research Hormonal changes in menopause: do they contribute to a ‘midlife hair crisis’ in women?
Menopause-related hormonal changes affect hair but are not the only cause of hair changes in middle-aged women.
research Melanocytes in Human Embryonic and Fetal Skin: A Review and New Findings
Melanocytes appear in fetal skin early, but their development details are still unclear.
research Hair Cycle-Specific Immunolocalization of Retinoic Acid Synthesizing Enzymes Aldh1a2 and Aldh1a3 Indicate Complex Regulation
The enzymes Aldh1a2 and Aldh1a3 are involved in making retinoic acid in hair follicles and have different roles in hair growth.
research Lithium alters mitotic progression in stamen hair cells of Tradescantia in a time-dependent and reversible fashion.
Lithium temporarily stops cell division in plant cells, but this can be reversed with certain chemicals.
research Promotion of anagen, increased hair density and reduction of hair fall in a clinical setting following identification of FGF5-inhibiting compounds via a novel 2-stage process
New compounds were found to help increase hair growth and decrease hair loss.
research Activation of β-Catenin Signaling in CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla Cells Drives Postnatal Hair Growth
Activating β-catenin in certain skin cells speeds up hair growth in mice.
research Ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens during a woman's life span
Women's ovarian hormones and adrenal androgens change throughout life, affecting hair loss and health.
research NF-κB Participates in Mouse Hair Cycle Control and Plays Distinct Roles in the Various Pelage Hair Follicle Types
NF-κB is crucial for different stages and types of hair growth in mice.
research μ-Crystallin, Thyroid Hormone-binding Protein, is Expressed Abundantly in the Murine Inner Root Sheath Cells
μ-Crystallin may help hair growth by affecting thyroid hormone levels in mouse hair follicles.
research What Color Is the Skin of a Mouse?
Mouse skin color ranges from pink to black, depending on their hair growth cycle.
research Study of seed hair growth in Populus tomentosa, an important character of female floral bud development
Poplar seed hairs grow from the placenta at the ovary base, with endoreduplication playing a key role in their development, and share similar cellulose synthesis processes with cotton fibers.
research Premature termination of hair follicle morphogenesis and accelerated hair follicle cycling in Iasi congenital atrichia (fzica) mice points to fuzzy as a key element of hair cycle control
The fuzzy gene is crucial for controlling hair growth cycles.
research A cDNA encoding the human type I hair keratin hHa1
hHb1, hHb3, and hHb6 mRNAs start expressing at the same time in hair follicles.
research Multi-functional nanozyme-integrated astragalus polysaccharide hydrogel for targeted phased therapy in diabetic wound healing
The hydrogel dressing speeds up and improves diabetic wound healing.
research The effects of topical diazoxide on hair follicular growth and physiology of the stumptailed macaque
Diazoxide applied to the skin can increase hair growth without harmful side effects.
research TGF‐β and HSP70 profiles during transformation of yak hair follicles from the anagen to catagen stage
TGF-β2 helps yak hair follicles enter the regression phase, while HSP70 tries to prevent it.
research The development of cutaneous afferent pathways in fetal sheep: a structural and functional study
Fetal sheep develop skin nerve pathways and responses to touch and heat between 75 and 134 days of gestation.
research ‘Disappearing Foot Disease’: An Unusual Presentation of Primary Lymphoma of Bone
An elderly woman's swollen, painful foot was found to be caused by a rare type of bone lymphoma, which improved with radiation treatment.
research Atrichia with papular lesions
Accurate diagnosis of APL is crucial to avoid unnecessary treatments.
research Histomorphological study on the teat (mammary papilla) of Indian buffalo
The Indian buffalo teat has a melanin-rich epidermis, no hair follicles, and a complex structure with muscle, blood vessels, and immune cells.
research Effect of surgeon's workload on rate of transection during follicular unit excision/extraction (FUE)
Surgeons make more mistakes in hair transplant procedures as they get tired or do more work.
research Amyloid-Associated Alopecia: A Reappraisal Including Its Pathophysiology
Amyloid deposits linked to a type of protein may cause a unique pattern of hair loss by disrupting hair growth cycles.
