research Rhamnose-mediated modulation of hair follicle growth: insights from chemical genomics
Rhamnose may help hair growth and pigmentation, making it a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Skin shedding and tissue regeneration in African spiny mice (Acomys)
African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.
research Interrelation of immunity and tissue repair or regeneration
The immune system plays a key role in tissue repair, affecting both healing quality and regenerative ability.

Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Somatic stem cell heterogeneity: diversity in the blood, skin and intestinal stem cell compartments
Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
research Role of genetics and sex steroid hormones in male androgenetic alopecia and female pattern hair loss: An update of what we now know
Genetics and hormones play a role in male and female hair loss, but more research is needed to fully understand it.
research Targeting Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway for Developing Therapies for Hair Loss
Activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research YAP and TAZ are essential for basal and squamous cell carcinoma initiation
YAP and TAZ proteins are necessary for the development of two types of skin cancer.
research Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research Reversing wrinkled skin and hair loss in mice by restoring mitochondrial function

research Hair and Scalp Changes in Cutaneous and Systemic Lupus Erythematosus
Hair loss is common in lupus patients and can be permanent or reversible, depending on the type, with various treatments available.
research Macrophages are necessary for skin regeneration during tissue expansion
Macrophages are essential for successful skin growth in reconstructive surgery.
research Calcineurin/Nfatc1 signaling links skin stem cell quiescence to hormonal signaling during pregnancy and lactation
Hormones during pregnancy and lactation keep skin stem cells inactive, preventing hair growth.
research Body composition changes and inhibition of fat development in vivo implicates androgen in regulation of stem cell lineage allocation
