research Biology of the skin and dermatological disease
Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research The murine hair follicle is a melatonin target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Differential effects of melatonin as a broad range UV-damage preventive dermato-endocrine regulator
Melatonin protects skin against UV damage by regulating various cellular processes.
research Any route for melanoblasts to colonize the skin!
Melanoblasts migrate to the skin using various pathways, and understanding this process could help with skin disease research.
research Pathobiology of chemotherapy-induced hair loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Experimental Induction of Alopecia Areata-Like Hair Loss in C3H/HeJ Mice Using Full-Thickness Skin Grafts
Skin grafts on mice can cause an immune response leading to hair loss, useful for studying human hair loss conditions.
research Dermatologic Changes Associated With Interleukin 2 Administration
IL-2 treatment causes skin eruptions and other reversible side effects, and may play a role in psoriasis.
research The role of macrophages in skin homeostasis
Macrophages are vital for skin healing, hair growth, salt balance, and cancer defense.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Regulation of pathophysiological and tissue regenerative functions of MSCs mediated via the WNT signaling pathway (Review)
The WNT signaling pathway is crucial for mesenchymal stem cells' function and therapy success.
research The aetiology and pathogenesis of alopecia areata
The cause of alopecia areata is likely a mix of genetics, immune system issues, and environmental factors, with more research needed to understand it fully.
research Human keratinocytes derived from the bulge region of hair follicles are refractory to differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research Future Directions in the Treatment of Vitiligo
New treatments for vitiligo may focus on protecting melanocyte stem cells from stress and targeting specific pathways involved in the condition.
research Fondation René Touraine
The document concluded that stem cells are crucial for skin repair, regeneration, and may help in developing advanced skin substitutes.
research Use of Contact Immunotherapy in the Treatment of Skin Diseases Other than Alopecia Areata
Contact immunotherapy might help treat various skin conditions, but more research is needed to confirm its safety and effectiveness.
research 7-Phloroeckol promotes hair growth on human follicles in vitro
7-Phloroeckol from brown algae may help hair grow.
research Systemic Circulating Leptin – Aiding New Dimension of Immune-Related Skin Carcinogenesis and Lipid Metabolism
High leptin levels may promote skin cancer and inflammation, suggesting potential for leptin-targeted therapies.
research A symphony of signals: the intricate role of lncRNAs in dermatological disorders
lncRNAs are important for understanding and treating skin diseases.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Effects of Visible Light on the Skin†
Visible light can damage skin and most sunscreens don't block it well; more research is needed on its effects and protection methods.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
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 Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
