research The evaluation and management of hirsutism*1
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
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 Cell death in the skin
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Acne as a chronic systemic disease
Acne is a chronic disease linked to various systemic conditions and has significant psychological and social effects.
research Ectopic Expression of the nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
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 Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Polycystic ovarian syndrome
PCOS is a complex disorder managed by treating symptoms and requires a team of specialists.
research An update of the pathogenesis of frontal fibrosing alopecia: What does the current evidence tell us?
The current understanding of frontal fibrosing alopecia involves immune, genetic, hormonal factors, and possibly environmental triggers, but more research is needed for effective treatments.
research Deciphering principles of morphogenesis from temporal and spatial patterns on the integument
The conclusion is that skin and hair patterns are formed by a mix of cell activities, molecular signals, and environmental factors.
research Fibroblast heterogeneity and tertiary lymphoid tissues in the kidney
Different types of fibroblasts play various roles in kidney repair and aging, and may affect chronic kidney disease outcomes.
research Activation of nuclear factor κB in response to cream ingestion is related to ovarian androgen hypersecretion in polycystic ovary syndrome
Eating cream can increase ovarian androgen production in women with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, which is not related to obesity.
research Alopecia areata: a comprehensive review of clinical, immunologic, and genetic perspectives
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss, with no cure yet, but research may lead to new treatments.
research Treatments for alopecia areata: a network meta-analysis
The analysis aims to identify the most effective and safest treatments for alopecia areata.
research Ectodermal Organ Stem Cells: Morphogenesis, Population Regenerative Behavior, and Evo-Devo
Different ectodermal organs like hair and feathers regenerate differently, with specific stem cells and signals involved in their growth and response to the environment.
research Epidermal–dermal coupled spheroids are important for tissue pattern regeneration in reconstituted skin explant cultures
Skin spheroids with both outer and inner layers are key for regrowing skin patterns and hair.
research Program and Abstract of 16th APALMS 2018
Laser technologies improve medical treatments and outcomes.
research Androgen effects on the skin
Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.
research Immunopathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecia
Hair loss in Lichen Planopilaris is caused by immune system issues damaging hair follicles and stem cells.
research The influence of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA) on the ovarian production of androgens in a context of in vitro fertilisation (IVF) – preliminary results
High levels of fatty acids are linked to increased androgen production and inflammation in women with PCOS, which may affect IVF outcomes.
research SUMMARIES OF PAPERS
Herpes gestationis is linked to certain antigens, atopic eczema affects T cell populations and may be eased by breastfeeding, higher doses of anti-androgen treatment can improve androgenic alopecia, topical minoxidil increases hair thickness, long-term methotrexate therapy can cause liver fibrosis in psoriasis patients, and Lichen Sclerosus et Atrophicus patients aren't at higher risk for autoimmune disorders.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research The Use of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells in Selected Skin Diseases (Vitiligo, Alopecia, and Nonhealing Wounds)
Adipose-derived stem cells show promise in treating skin conditions like vitiligo, alopecia, and nonhealing wounds.
research Comparative efficacy of oral dutasteride and low-, medium-, and high-dose oral minoxidil: a six-month prospective trichoscopic and clinical study
Oral minoxidil improved hair loss more than oral dutasteride.
research Safety concerns when using novel medications to treat alopecia
Consider benefits and risks of new alopecia treatments for safety.
