research Equine Hoof Stem Progenitor Cells (HPC) CD29 + /Nestin + /K15 + – a Novel Dermal/epidermal Stem Cell Population With a Potential Critical Role for Laminitis Treatment
Newly found stem cells in horse hooves show promise for treating a hoof disease called laminitis.
research Accelerative action of topical piperonylic acid on mice full thickness wound by modulating inflammation and collagen deposition
Piperonylic acid speeds up wound healing by reducing inflammation and boosting collagen.
research Partial Proteasome Inhibitors Induce Hair Follicle Growth by Stabilizing β-Catenin
Certain inhibitors applied to the skin can promote hair growth by maintaining a key hair growth signal.
research Co-opting Developmental Signaling Pathways to Promote Wound Healing
Using developmental signaling pathways could improve adult wound healing by mimicking scarless embryonic healing.
research Exploring the role of two polypeptide nanofiber gels derived from RADA16-I self-assembly in accelerating burn wound healing
RG and RJ gels speed up burn wound healing better than other treatments.
research Unveiling the Nuances of Adult Female Acne: A Comprehensive Exploration of Epidemiology, Treatment Modalities, Dermocosmetics, and the Menopausal Influence
Adult female acne is a complex condition that can worsen with menopause, requiring holistic treatment and tailored skincare at different life stages.
research In focus in HCB
The May issue discussed publishing agreements and four studies on cholesterol in hair, cancer cell changes, hormones in the uterus, and skin protein effects.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research BIOMAGNETISM AS FACTOR IN RED BLOOD CELLS DEFORMATION
Biomagnetic forces can deform red blood cells.
research 1301 STIM1, but not STIM2, is the calcium sensor critical for sweat secretion
STIM1 is essential for sweat secretion.
research 1372 Biological effects of electrical epilation on human hair follicles and perifollicular skin ex vivo
Electrical epilation damages hair follicles and surrounding skin, likely preventing hair regrowth.
research 1373 Specific in vivo ablation of Lrig1-positive follicular stem cells results in sebaceous gland loss in mice
Removing Lrig1-positive stem cells in mice causes temporary loss of sebaceous glands.
research Microscopy of the hair and trichogram
Hair microscopy is a useful and affordable way to diagnose hair disorders.
research Alopecia areata - probing the deforestation
The document concludes that doctors should recognize congenital triangular alopecia to avoid unnecessary treatments, as it does not respond to steroids like alopecia areata does.
research An investigation of vitamin D status in alopecia areata
People with alopecia areata often have lower vitamin D levels and more inflammation, suggesting vitamin D might be involved in the condition.
research Fibroblasts become fat to reduce scarring
Turning scar-forming cells into fat cells can reduce scarring.
research 832 Variability in secretion of growth factors by platelets is intrinsic to alopecia patients undergoing platelet-rich plasma therapy
Hair growth treatment results vary because each patient's platelets release different levels of growth factors.
research An Integrated Analysis of Cashmere Fineness lncRNAs in Cashmere Goats
lncRNA XLOC_008679 and gene KRT35 affect cashmere fineness in goats.
research The structure of hair and follicles of mice carrying the naked (N) gene
Mice with the naked gene have missing or abnormal hair cells.
research Thiolated and PEGylated silica nanoparticle delivery to hair follicles
Using longer PEG chains helps nanoparticles penetrate hair follicles better, improving drug delivery for conditions like alopecia.
research Research Progress in Composition, Classification and Influencing Factors of Hair
Lipids are important for healthy hair, but their exact role is not fully understood and needs more research.
research Post-transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Autosomal Recessive Transmission of a Rare KRT74 Variant Causes Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia: Allelism with Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A rare gene variant causes hair and nail issues in a family.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research Fabrication and characterization of epithelial scaffolds for hair follicle regeneration
Scientists created three types of structures to help regrow hair follicles, and all showed promising results for hair regeneration.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research The genetic basis of dermatophytosis skin infection susceptibility
Genetic factors, skin barrier, immune function, and obesity influence risk of fungal skin infections.
research Molecular Mechanisms Affecting Development of Animal Fibers and Some Studies on Goats
The article concludes that understanding the molecular processes in hair follicle development can improve the quality of fibers like Angora and cashmere.
research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
