Targeting the protein Caveolin-1 might help treat a type of scarring hair loss called Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.
research Defining the transcriptional signature of esophageal-to-skin lineage conversion
Adult esophageal cells can start to become like skin cells, with a key pathway influencing this change.
research The involvement of androgens in human hair growth
Androgens play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness and excessive hairiness.
research A two-phase model of skin epidermal stratification: lessons from centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Perspectives on Dermatopathology
Dermatopathology has made significant progress but many skin diseases remain incurable, requiring ongoing research.
research SARS-CoV-2 infection reduces the number of spermatogonial stem cells and dysregulates the transcriptional landscape of the human testis
COVID-19 can harm male fertility by reducing sperm stem cells and damaging testicular function.
research Effects of zinc supplementation on milk production performance and growth status of Bactrian camels
Zinc supplements improve hair growth in camels and support growth and hair development in calves.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co- option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.
research Anogenital distance as a biomarker for incomplete masculinization : Molecular mechanisms in the perineum
A short male anogenital distance may indicate incomplete masculinization due to disrupted androgen action.
research The peach RGF/GLV signalling peptide pCTG134 is involved in a regulatory circuit that sustains auxin and ethylene actions
The peach gene pCTG134 helps control the interaction between auxin and ethylene hormones during fruit ripening.
research Serum Vitamin Levels in Different Categories of Androgenetic Alopecia Subjects
Smoking and drinking can lower vitamin levels and potentially trigger early hair loss, but overall vitamin levels don't seem to affect hair loss duration.
research Defining the impact of β-catenin/Tcf transactivation on epithelial stem cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Identifying novel strategies for treating human hair loss disorders: Cyclosporine A suppresses the Wnt inhibitor, SFRP1, in the dermal papilla of human scalp hair follicles
Cyclosporine A may help treat hair loss by blocking a protein that inhibits hair growth.
research Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells similar to embryonic stem cells.
research Control of Human Hair Growth by Neurotrophins: Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor Inhibits Hair Shaft Elongation, Induces Catagen, and Stimulates Follicular Transforming Growth Factor β2 Expression
