research Replicative stress, stem cells and aging
Maintaining DNA health in stem cells is key to preventing aging and tissue breakdown.
research Scalp Dermoscopy or Trichoscopy
Trichoscopy is a quick, noninvasive method to diagnose hair and scalp disorders, often reducing the need for biopsies.
research The Senescence–Stemness Alliance – A Cancer-Hijacked Regeneration Principle
Cancer can hijack the body's cell repair system to promote tumor growth, and targeting this process may improve cancer treatments.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research Telogen effluvium
Chronic Telogen Effluvium may resolve after years and is diagnosed by examining the patient's history and clinical signs, with treatment aimed at underlying causes and possibly minoxidil.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research The cycling hair follicle as an ideal systems biology research model
The hair follicle is a great model for research to improve hair growth treatments.
research Perspectives of Kennedy's disease
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness and sensory issues, has no cure but manageable symptoms, and future treatments look promising.
research The Paradox of p53: What, How, and Why?
The p53 protein has complex, sometimes contradictory functions, including tumor suppression and promoting cell survival.
research Lamins in development, tissue maintenance and stress
Lamins are vital for cell survival, organ development, and preventing premature aging.
research Prolactin—a novel neuroendocrine regulator of human keratin expressionin situ
Prolactin affects the production of different keratins in human hair, which could lead to new treatments for skin and hair disorders.
research Effect of Poly(3-hydroxybutyrate-co-3-hydroxyvalerate) Nanofiber Matrices Cocultured With Hair Follicular Epithelial and Dermal Cells for Biological Wound Dressing
PHBV nanofiber matrices help wounds heal faster when used with hair follicle cells.
research Dienogest
Dienogest combined with ethinylestradiol is a highly effective birth control that improves menstrual symptoms and has manageable side effects.
research Hair follicle neogenesis induced by cultured human scalp dermal papilla cells
Scientists found a way to grow human hair cells in a lab that can create new hair when transplanted.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Symbiotic in vitro seed propagation of Dendrobium: fungal and bacterial partners and their influence on plant growth and development
Certain fungi and bacteria help orchid seeds germinate and plants grow better.
research Delivery of Tissue-Targeted Scalpels: Opportunities and Challenges for In Vivo CRISPR/Cas-Based Genome Editing
Using CRISPR for gene editing in the body is promising but needs better delivery methods to be more efficient and specific.
research Apoptosis and cutaneous biology
Apoptosis is crucial for healthy skin and treating skin diseases.
research Pathogenesis of Cardiovascular Alterations in Dogs Treated with Minoxidil
Using minoxidil on dogs can cause serious cardiovascular damage, including arterial injury and hemorrhagic lesions.
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 Male pattern hair loss: current understanding
Genetics and hormones cause hair loss; finasteride treats it safely.
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 HAIR AND SYSTEMATIC DISEASE
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research ROS Balance Autoregulating Core–Shell CeO2@ZIF-8/Au Nanoplatform for Wound Repair
