360-390 / 1000+ results research Modulating the Antioxidant Response for Better Oxidative Stress-Inducing Therapies: How to Take Advantage of Two Sides of the Same Medal?
Enhancing antioxidant responses can improve treatments for various diseases.
research Clinical perspectives on the age-related increase of immunosuppressive activity
Aging and chronic inflammation weaken the immune system, increasing cancer and infection risks.
research Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS)
The document concludes that rapid identification, isolation, and strict infection control are crucial to manage SARS outbreaks.
research Quaternary ammonium iminofullerenes improve root growth of oxidative-stress maize through ASA-GSH cycle modulating redox homeostasis of roots and ROS-mediated root-hair elongation
Quaternary ammonium iminofullerenes help maize roots grow better under stress by reducing oxidative damage.
research The prostaglandin synthases, COX-2 and L-PGDS, mediate prostate hyperplasia induced by low-dose bisphenol A
Low-dose bisphenol A increases prostate size in rats by affecting certain enzymes.
research Dual growth factor releasing multi-functional nanofibers for wound healing
The nanofibers with two growth factors improved wound healing by supporting structure, preventing infection, and aiding tissue growth.
research Post-COVID-19 Sydrome and Decrease in Health-Related Quality of Life in Kidney Transplant Recipients after SARS-COV-2 Infection—A Cohort Longitudinal Study from the North of Poland
Kidney transplant patients who had COVID-19 experienced a significant drop in their quality of life due to long-lasting symptoms.
research Complications Post-COVID-19 and Risk Factors among Patients after Six Months of a SARS-CoV-2 Infection: A Population-Based Prospective Cohort Study
One-third of COVID-19 patients had long-term symptoms like hair loss and fatigue, with women, older individuals, blood group B, smokers, and those with more virus exposure at higher risk.
research Baseline Neutrophil-to-Lymphocyte Ratio Stratifies Early Trichoscopic Response to Platelet-Rich Plasma–Based Regimens in Non-Scarring Alopecia: A Real-World Cohort with Internal Validation Using an Interpretable Neural Network
A high neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio may predict poor response to hair loss treatment.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Finding Long-COVID: temporal topic modeling of electronic health records from the N3C and RECOVER programs
Long-COVID causes more health issues after COVID-19, varying by age, sex, and infection wave.
research 1. Medical Practice; Therapy; Adverse Reactions
Blood pressure drugs can cause skin lupus, but it improves after stopping the drug. The glycoprotein D vaccine works against genital herpes in some women, and the HPV-16 vaccine reduces HPV-16 infection and related diseases. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. A cream called imiquimod effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Iron supplements don't necessarily help with chronic hair loss in women.
research 7. Surgery and Laser
Various skin conditions like cutaneous lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, and basal cell carcinoma can be effectively treated with antihypertensive agents, NB-UVB phototherapy, and imiquimod cream respectively. Vaccines are effective against genital herpes and HPV-16 infection. Early intervention is crucial for conditions like diabetic foot ulcers and neonatal herpes. Certain dyes can cause hand dermatitis, and there's a link between smoking/drinking and psoriasis in men. No direct link was found between low iron levels and chronic hair loss in women.
research CAQ Corner: Basic concepts of transplant immunology
The document explains how the immune system reacts to organ transplants and the treatments used to prevent rejection.
research The importance of the neuro‐immuno‐cutaneous system on human skin equivalent design
Human skin models are essential for studying skin's sensory, immune, and nervous system interactions.
research Cutaneous Neuroimmune Interactions in Peripheral Neuropathic Pain States
New therapies targeting skin neuroimmune interactions could treat neuropathic pain.
research Human Hair Follicle-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from the Lower Dermal Sheath as a Competitive Alternative for Immunomodulation
Cells from the lower part of hair follicles are a promising, less invasive option for immune system therapies.
research The beneficial effects of chick embryo extract preconditioning on hair follicle stem cells: A promising strategy to generate Schwann cells
Chick embryo extract helps rat hair follicle stem cells potentially turn into Schwann cells, important for the nervous system.
research Notch Signaling in Hair Follicle Development
The Notch signaling pathway is important for hair follicle development and could help create treatments for hair disorders.
research Overview of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is a genetic and immune-related hair loss condition that is often associated with other autoimmune diseases and does not typically cause permanent damage to hair follicles.
research Non‐biologic immunosuppressive drugs for inflammatory and autoimmune skin diseases
Non-biologic immunosuppressive drugs are crucial for treating autoimmune and chronic inflammatory skin diseases.
research Seasonal Patterns and Trends in Dermatoses in Poland
In Poland, people search more for certain skin conditions depending on the season, and despite more STD infections, searches for them have decreased, suggesting a need for better sexual education.
research Understanding Melanocyte Stem Cells for Disease Modeling and Regenerative Medicine Applications
Melanocyte stem cells are crucial for skin pigmentation and have potential in disease modeling and regenerative medicine.
research Isolation of a Novel Population of Multipotent Adult Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicles
Human hair follicles can provide stem cells for regenerative medicine.
research Human dermal stem cells differentiate into functional epidermal melanocytes
Human dermal stem cells can become functional skin pigment cells.
research Vitiligo - Part 2 - classification, histopathology and treatment
New vitiligo treatments focus on controlling immune damage and restoring skin color.
research Uncomplicated differentiation of stem cells into bipolar neurons and myelinating glia
Hair follicles can be used to easily create neurons and glial cells for potential nerve repair.
research CD49fhigh Defines a Distinct Skin Mesenchymal Stem Cell Population Capable of Hair Follicle Epithelial Cell Maintenance
A specific group of skin stem cells was found to help maintain hair follicle cells.
research Sox9 regulates melanocytic fate decision of adult hair follicle stem cells
Sox9 is crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become melanocytes instead of glial cells.
