PEA reduces pain by increasing neurosteroid synthesis in the spinal cord.
research Cultured dermal papilla cells of the rat vibrissa follicle. Proliferative activity, adhesion properties and reorganization of the extracellular matrix in vitro
Rat dermal papilla cells have unique properties and interact differently with their environment compared to other skin cells.
research Basement membrane components define the microenvironment of aggregated fibroblasts in the skin and support their aggregation in vitro
Basement membrane supports fibroblast aggregation, aiding hair follicle development.
research Cholesterol and Phospholipid-free Multilamellar Niosomes Regulate Transdermal Permeation of a Hydrophobic Agent Potentially Administrated for Treating Diseases in Deep Hair Follicles
Cholesterol- and phospholipid-free niosomes improve deep skin drug delivery.
research Characterization of the in vitro, ex vivo, and in vivo Efficacy of the Antimicrobial Peptide DPK-060 Used for Topical Treatment
DPK-060 in poloxamer gel effectively treats skin infections, but nanocarriers don't enhance its efficacy.
research Vasoactive intestinal peptide, whose receptor-mediated signalling may be defective in alopecia areata, provides protection from hair follicle immune privilege collapse
A substance called VIP might protect hair follicles from being attacked by the immune system, and problems with VIP signaling could lead to hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Mycobacterial 65,000 MW heat-shock protein shares a carboxy-terminal epitope with human epidermal cytokeratin 1/2.
A mycobacterial protein shares a similar region with a human skin protein, possibly affecting skin diseases.
research Multi-Injection Plate for Intralesional Corticosteroid Treatment of Patchy Alopecia Areata
The multi-injection plate is a less painful and more efficient method for treating patchy hair loss.
research Core-shell nanocarriers based on PEGylated hydrophobic hyperbranched polyesters
The new nanocarriers improve how well water-insoluble drugs dissolve and allow for controlled drug release.
