Secreted inhibitors of Wnt and IGF signaling control hair and tooth development, creating species-specific patterns.
research Embryonic-like regenerative phenomenon: wound-induced hair follicle neogenesis
New hair can grow from large wounds in mice, but less so as they age, involving reprogramming of skin cells and specific molecular pathways.
research AKR1D1 regulates glucocorticoid availability and glucocorticoid receptor activation in human hepatoma cells
AKR1D1 controls glucocorticoid levels and receptor activity in liver cells.
research Cortexolone 17a-propionate: A new antiandrogen acting on hair dermal papilla cells for the treatment of androgenic alopecia
Cortexolone 17a-propionate may be an effective new treatment for hair loss.
research Human Fetal Scalp Dermal Papilla Enriched Genes and the Role of R-Spondin-1 in the Restoration of Hair Neogenesis in Adult Mouse Cells
Certain genes are more active in baby scalp cells and can help grow hair when added to adult mouse skin cells.
research Research Highlights: Highlights from the latest articles in regenerative medicine
New treatments for diabetes, central nervous system repair, and cartilage injury were found, and a way to create functional hair follicles from stem cells was developed.
research GABAergic neurosteroids mediate the effects of ethanol on long‐term potentiation in rat hippocampal slices
Ethanol blocks memory formation in rats by enhancing certain brain chemicals.
research 09-P006 Epithelial–mesenchymal interactions promote hair follicle neogenesis and a new stem cell niche in adult corneal epithelium
Adult hair follicle cells can create new hair follicles from corneal cells with the right support.
research Effects of halogenated analogues of cortisol and progesterone upon hair growth in castrated mice.
Certain chemical changes to cortisol and progesterone can increase or decrease their ability to inhibit hair growth.
research A quantitative ultra-performance liquid chromatography high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of steroids from human scalp hair
The method can measure multiple steroids in human hair to study long-term steroid metabolism, especially in newborns and children.
research Ethanol-induced GABAA receptor alpha4 subunit plasticity involves phosphorylation and neuroactive steroids
Ethanol changes GABAA receptor α4 subunit levels through phosphorylation and neuroactive steroids.
research Biochemical features of primary cells from a pediatric patient with a gain-of-function ODC1 genetic mutation
A new genetic disorder caused by an ODC1 mutation can be treated with DFMO.
research The biochemical and phenotypic characterization of females homozygous for 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency.
Females with 5 alpha-reductase-2 deficiency have less body hair, no acne, normal fertility, and delayed menarche.
research Abstract 81
Baby and adult skin cells are different, with baby cells having more active pathways that could help grow new hair follicles.
research The Effects of Induced Polycystic Ovary Syndrome in NAG-1 Transgenic Mice
NAG-1 may help prevent some metabolic issues related to PCOS.
research Giant pigmented tumour of the scalp—a diffuse neurofibroma or a congenital naevus showing neurofibromatous changes? Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies
The tumor likely shows dual neural crest differentiation.
research In vivo alteration of the keratin 17 gene in hair follicles by oligonucleotide‐directed gene targeting
Altering the keratin 17 gene in mice hair follicles caused temporary hair issues, but changes were minimal and short-lived.
research Growth Hormone Operates as a Neuroendocrine Regulator of Human Hair Growth Ex Vivo
Growth hormone is important for regulating human hair growth.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Benzothiazepines, diltiazem and JTV-519, exert an anxiolytic-like effect via neurosteroid biosynthesis in mice
Benzothiazepines like diltiazem reduce anxiety in mice by making neurosteroids.
