research Anabolic-androgenic steroids and cardiovascular risk
Using steroids can increase the risk of heart problems.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Proteomic tools for the investigation of human hair structural proteins and evidence of weakness sites on hair keratin coil segments
Hair proteins have weak spots in their α-helical segments.
research How Does pH Fit in with Oscillating Polar Growth?
pH, calcium, and reactive oxygen species regulate plant cell growth, with key roles for NADPH oxidases and plasma membrane H+-ATPases.
research Topical ALA-Photodynamic Therapy for Acne Can Induce Apoptosis of Sebocytes and Down-regulate Their TLR-2 and TLR-4 Expression
ALA-photodynamic therapy helps reduce acne by causing acne cell death and lowering certain skin protein levels.
research p53‐dependent transcriptional regulation of EDA2R and its involvement in chemotherapy‐induced hair loss
The study concludes that the EDA2R gene is activated by p53 during chemotherapy but is not necessary for chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research Procyanidin B-2, extracted from apples, promotes hair growth: a laboratory study
Apple extract called procyanidin B-2 was found to greatly increase hair growth.
research Local and Systemic Reduction by Topical Finasteride or Flutamide of Hamster Flank Organ Size and Enzyme Activity
Topical finasteride and flutamide reduce gland size and enzyme activity, with flutamide being more potent, potentially treating acne, seborrhea, hirsutism, and androgenic alopecia.
research Toxic shock syndrome: Recent developments in pathogenesis
Toxic shock syndrome is caused by a complex interaction of bacterial toxins and the immune system, and understanding this can help improve diagnosis and treatment.
research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Vitamin D receptor polymorphisms and the polycystic ovary syndrome: A systematic review
The review found no clear link between vitamin D receptor gene variations and polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Aromatase deficiency in a male patient - Case report and review of the literature.
A male with aromatase deficiency improved bone health with estradiol treatment.
research Human TSC2-null fibroblast-like cells induce hair follicle neogenesis and hamartoma morphogenesis
Cells from a skin condition can create new hair follicles and similar growths in mice, and a specific treatment can reduce these effects.
research Recent advances on skin‐resident stem/progenitor cell functions in skin regeneration, aging and cancers and novel anti‐aging and cancer therapies
New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Fibromodulin reduces scar formation in adult cutaneous wounds by eliciting a fetal-like phenotype
Fibromodulin treatment helps reduce scarring and improves wound healing by making it more like fetal healing.
research Treatment options for alopecia: an update, looking to the future
The document concludes that there are various treatments for different types of alopecia, but more research is needed for evidence-based treatments.
research Novel and Established Potassium Channel Openers Stimulate Hair Growth In Vitro: Implications for their Modes of Action in Hair Follicles
Potassium channel openers like minoxidil help hair grow by acting on hair follicles.
research Glutamate transporter Slc1a3 mediates inter‐niche stem cell activation during skin growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Alopecia Areata. Current situation and perspectives
Alopecia Areata is a complex, unpredictable autoimmune hair loss condition with limited treatment options and a significant psychological impact.
research Straight hair associated with interferon-alfa plus ribavirin in hepatitis C infection
ALA-PDT is effective and safe for chronic X-ray dermatitis, providing complete or partial remission.
research Cepharanthine, a regulator of keap1-Nrf2, inhibits gastric cancer growth through oxidative stress and energy metabolism pathway
Cepharanthine may help treat gastric cancer by causing cancer cell death and affecting energy use.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research Cell wall-associated ROOT HAIR SPECIFIC 10, a proline-rich receptor-like kinase, is a negative modulator of Arabidopsis root hair growth
ROOT HAIR SPECIFIC 10 (RHS10) reduces the length of root hairs in Arabidopsis plants.
research Office Diagnosis of Hair Shaft Defects
