research Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs) and PPAR agonists: the ‘future’ in dermatology therapeutics?
PPAR agonists show promise for skin conditions but need more research before being a main treatment.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Tcf3 promotes cell migration and wound repair through regulation of lipocalin 2
Tcf3 helps cells move and heal wounds by controlling lipocalin 2.
research The biology of hair diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
research Reflections on how wound healing-promoting effects of the hair follicle can be translated into clinical practice
Hair follicles can help wounds heal faster and this knowledge could be used to treat chronic skin ulcers, with a potential use of a special stem cell hydrogel to enhance healing.
research Macroenvironmental Regulation of Hair Cycling and Collective Regenerative Behavior
Hair growth is influenced by various body and external factors, and neighboring hairs communicate to synchronize regeneration.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
research Biallelic HEPHL1 variants impair ferroxidase activity and cause an abnormal hair phenotype
Mutations in the HEPHL1 gene cause abnormal hair and cognitive issues.
research Mutations in the vitamin D receptor gene in four patients with hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets
Four patients with a type of rickets and hair loss had different mutations in their vitamin D receptor gene, causing it to not work properly.
research Validation of the Alopecia Areata Patient Priority Outcomes (AAPPO) Questionnaire in Adults and Adolescents with Alopecia Areata
The AAPPO questionnaire is a reliable tool for assessing hair loss impact in alopecia areata patients.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research The Expression of Vitamin D-Upregulated Protein 1 in Skin and its Interaction with Sciellin in Cultured Keratinocytes
VDUP1 is found in skin and hair follicles, interacts with sciellin, and may help regulate skin cell differentiation.
research The effects of narrowbands of visible light upon some skin disorders: a review
Visible light can improve skin disorders and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand long-term effects.
research Stem cell identification-in vivo lineage analysis versus in vitro isolation and clonal expansion
In vivo lineage labelling is better than in vitro methods for identifying and understanding stem cells.
research Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome with low expression of TRPS1 on epidermal and hair follicle epithelial cells
Low TRPS1 expression in skin and hair cells is linked to hair problems in Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Trichoblastoma with sebaceous and sweat gland differentiation
A rare benign skin tumor showed unusual features of sebaceous and sweat glands, important for correct diagnosis.
research Overexpression of Lnk in the Ovaries Is Involved in Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Higher Lnk protein levels in ovaries may lead to insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Update on the Treatment of Alopecia Areata
Some treatments can help hair regrowth in alopecia areata, but none offer a cure, and effectiveness varies.
research Expression of NAD+dependent 15-hydroxyprostaglandin dehydrogenase and protection of prostaglandins in human hair follicle
A substance called compound-1 could help increase hair growth by maintaining prostaglandin levels in hair follicles.
research Epidermal expression of receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) is related to inflammation and apoptosis in human skin
Skin RAGE levels are linked to inflammation and cell death.
research Molecular Basis for Hair Loss in Mice Carrying a Novel Nonsense Mutation (Hrrh-R) in the Hairless Gene (Hr)
A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research Cell Density-Dependent Upregulation of PDCD4 in Keratinocytes and Its Implications for Epidermal Homeostasis and Repair
PDCD4 is important for controlling skin cell growth and healing.
research Core-shell nanocarriers based on PEGylated hydrophobic hyperbranched polyesters
The new nanocarriers improve how well water-insoluble drugs dissolve and allow for controlled drug release.
research Secretory phospholipase A2-IIA overexpressing mice exhibit cyclic alopecia mediated through aberrant hair shaft differentiation and impaired wound healing response
Mice with too much sPLA₂-IIA have hair loss and poor wound healing due to abnormal hair growth and stem cell depletion.
research Dermal EZH2 orchestrates dermal differentiation and epidermal proliferation during murine skin development
Dermal EZH2 controls skin cell development and hair growth in mice.
research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Efficacy of Intralesional and Oral Dutasteride in the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia: A Systematic Review
Oral dutasteride works better for hair loss, but has more sexual side effects; intralesional dutasteride is a possible alternative.
