research Wound Healing and the Use of Medicinal Plants
Some medicinal plants can help heal wounds and may lead to new treatments.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Androgenetic alopecia: a review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Age-associated inflammation inhibits epidermal stem cell function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research Transplantation immunology: Solid organ and bone marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Epithelial Integrity Is Maintained by a Matriptase-Dependent Proteolytic Pathway
Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
research Phase I Study of the Hedgehog Pathway Inhibitor IPI-926 in Adult Patients with Solid Tumors
The drug IPI-926 is safe at 160 mg daily and may help treat certain tumors, especially basal cell carcinoma.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
research Anti-cancer properties of olive oil secoiridoid phenols: a systematic review of in vivo studies
Olive oil compounds may help prevent cancer in animals, but human results are mixed.
research MicroRNA-214 controls skin and hair follicle development by modulating the activity of the Wnt pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Control of hair follicle cell fate by underlying mesenchyme through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 regulatory axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
research Chapter 6 Fetal Skin Wound Healing
Fetal skin heals without scarring due to unique cells and processes not present in adult skin healing.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Building Epithelial Tissues from Skin Stem Cells
Skin stem cells help maintain skin health, grow hair, and heal wounds.
research Clinical use of conditioned media of adipose tissue-derived stem cells in female pattern hair loss: a retrospective case series study
ADSC-CM treatment improved hair density and thickness in women with hair loss, safely and effectively.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research Corticosterone inhibits GAS6 to govern hair follicle stem-cell quiescence
Stress hormone corticosterone blocks a growth factor to slow down hair stem cell activity and hair growth.
research Regeneration of skin appendages and nerves: current status and further challenges
Progress has been made in skin and nerve regeneration, but more research is needed to improve methods and ensure safety.
research Predicting therapeutic drugs for hepatocellular carcinoma based on tissue-specific pathways
Securinine and ajmaline may effectively treat liver cancer, with securinine being less toxic to normal cells.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
