research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research The Neurosteroidogenic Enzyme 5α-Reductase Mediates Psychotic-Like Complications of Sleep Deprivation
The enzyme 5α-reductase is key in causing psychotic-like effects from sleep deprivation.
research The 5α-reductase inhibitor Dutasteride but not Finasteride protects dopamine neurons in the MPTP mouse model of Parkinson’s disease
Dutasteride protects dopamine neurons in Parkinson's mice, but Finasteride doesn't.
research Stem Cell-Based Hair Cell Regeneration and Therapy in the Inner Ear
Stem cell therapy could help regenerate inner ear hair cells to treat hearing loss.
research 5alpha-reductase inhibitors dampen L-DOPA-induced dyskinesia via normalization of dopamine D1-receptor signaling pathway and D1-D3 receptor interaction
Finasteride and dutasteride reduce unwanted movements from Parkinson's disease treatment by normalizing certain brain signals.
research Reprogramming of Human Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells into Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be successfully transformed into different types of cells, but not more efficiently than other adult cells.
research The placebo effect and randomized trials: analysis of conventional medicine
The document concludes that it's important to understand the placebo effect when evaluating the effectiveness of treatments in medical trials.
research Apoptotic cells represent a dynamic stem cell niche governing proliferation and tissue regeneration
Dying cells can help with faster healing and new hair growth by releasing a growth-promoting molecule.
research Differential expression and functionality of ATP-binding cassette transporters in the human hair follicle
Certain transporters are found in human hair follicles and may affect hair growth and loss.
research Stem cells and aberrant signaling of molecular systems in skin aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Arctiin blocks hydrogen peroxide-induced senescence and cell death though microRNA expression changes in human dermal papilla cells
Arctiin helps protect hair cells from damage and death caused by oxidative stress.
research Genome-wide association study of skin complex diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research The Black identity, hair product use, and breast cancer scale
The BHBS is a valid tool to study cultural norms and breast cancer risk in Black women.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cell behavior by the niche microenvironment
The environment around melanocyte stem cells is key for hair regeneration and color, with certain injuries affecting hair color and potential treatments for pigmentation disorders.
research Friends Turned Foes: Angiogenic Growth Factors beyond Angiogenesis
Some growth factors, while important for normal body functions, can cause diseases when not regulated properly.
research Skin-derived stem cells as a source of primordial germ cell- and oocyte-like cells
Skin-derived stem cells can become various cell types, including germ cell-like and oocyte-like cells.
research Targeting neurosteroid synthesis as a therapy for schizophrenia-related alterations induced by early psychosocial stress
A drug improved schizophrenia-like symptoms in stressed rats by changing brain steroid levels.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Polyclonal origin and hair induction ability of dermal papillae in neonatal and adult mouse back skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Application of Nanoemulsions in Cosmetics
Nanoemulsions improve stability and delivery of active ingredients in cosmetics for skin and hair care.
research Safety of 5α-reductase inhibitors and spironolactone in breast cancer patients receiving endocrine therapies
The medications 5α-reductase inhibitors and spironolactone are generally safe for breast cancer patients on endocrine therapies and do not significantly increase breast cancer risk.
research Symmetry breaking of tissue mechanics in wound induced hair follicle regeneration of laboratory and spiny mice
Tissue stiffness affects hair follicle regeneration, and Twist1 is a key regulator.
research Minoxidil prevents 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine-induced serotonin depletions: role of mitochondrial ATP-sensitive potassium channels, Akt and ERK
Minoxidil prevents serotonin loss from MDMA by affecting potassium channels and increasing Akt phosphorylation.
research Induction of Skin-Derived Precursor Cells from Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists made skin stem cells from other human cells with over 97% efficiency, which could help treat skin conditions.
research Disease Versus Disease: How One Disease May Ameliorate Another
Some diseases can improve the outcomes of other diseases, leading to new treatment possibilities.
research Activation of the OVOL1-OVOL2 Axis in the Hair Bulb and in Pilomatricoma
The genes OVOL1 and OVOL2 are important for hair growth and may be involved in a type of skin tumor.
research Age-Related Hair Pigment Loss
Graying hair happens due to aging and might be delayed by new treatments.
research An incompletely penetrant novel MAFB (p.Ser56Phe) variant in autosomal dominant multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome
Researchers found a new gene variant linked to a rare bone disease, which doesn't always cause symptoms in carriers.
