research Dermatoses of Pregnancy - Clues to Diagnosis, Fetal Risk and Therapy
The document concludes that specific itchy skin diseases during pregnancy have varying fetal risks and treatments, including corticosteroids and other medications.
research No evidence for the immunocompetence handicap hypothesis in male humans
Higher free testosterone levels in men are linked to a stronger immune response, not weaker.
research Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
The document concludes that rapid identification, isolation, and strict infection control are crucial to manage SARS outbreaks.
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 Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Potential adverse effects of long-term testosterone therapy
Long-term testosterone therapy can cause hormone suppression, affect prostate and heart health, and alter physical characteristics, but does not increase prostate cancer risk and needs more research for full risk assessment.
research Human hair follicles are an extrarenal source and a nonhematopoietic target of erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research A new path in defining light parameters for hair growth: Discovery and modulation of photoreceptors in human hair follicle
Blue light promotes hair growth by interacting with specific receptors in hair follicles.
research Physiology of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Gonadal Axis in the Male
The document explains how the male reproductive system works, its role in making testosterone, and how conditions like obesity can disrupt it, leading to low testosterone and fertility issues.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Dermatophytosis in companion animals: A review
Ringworm in pets is influenced by fungi type, immune status, and stress hormones.
research Transcutaneous implantation of valproic acid-encapsulated dissolving microneedles induces hair regrowth

research The silver locus product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a new tool for the analysis of melanosome transfer in human melanocyte–keratinocyte co‐culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: reflections and hypotheses on aetiology and pathogenesis
FFA's causes may include environmental triggers and genetic factors.
research A novel mouse model demonstrates that oncogenic melanocyte stem cells engender melanoma resembling human disease
Oncogenic melanocyte stem cells can develop into melanoma similar to human cases.
research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research Molecular basis of hair cell loss
The document concludes that there are no effective clinical treatments for hearing loss due to hair cell damage, but research is ongoing.
research Direct conversion of mouse and human fibroblasts to functional melanocytes by defined factors
Fibroblasts can be turned into melanocytes for potential skin treatments.
research Stem cell quiescence acts as a tumour suppressor in squamous tumours

research Localisation of members of the notch system and the differentiation of vibrissa hair follicles: Receptors, ligands, and fringe modulators
Notch-related genes play a key role in the development and cycling of hair follicles.
research The Majority of Multipotent Epidermal Stem Cells Do Not Protect Their Genome by Asymmetrical Chromosome Segregation
Most hair follicle stem cells do not protect their DNA by dividing it unevenly.
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.
