Middle-aged women in Iran are most affected by primary cicatricial alopecia, especially discoid lupus erythematous.
research Autotaxin–lysophosphatidic acid– LPA 3 signaling at the embryo‐epithelial boundary controls decidualization pathways
LPA3 signaling in the uterus is crucial for placental formation and fetal development.
research 854 CCL5 affects the hair-inductive capacity of three-dimensional (3D)-cultured dermal papilla cells
CCL5 is important for the hair growth potential of human dermal papilla cells.
research PRC 2 preserves intestinal progenitors and restricts secretory lineage commitment
PRC2 is essential for maintaining intestinal cell balance and aiding regeneration after damage.
research Clinical features of primary cicatricial alopecia in Chinese patients
Chinese patients with primary cicatricial alopecia often have folliculitis decalvans, benefit from treatment, but may experience relapse, with dermoscopy being a useful diagnostic tool.
research 698 Effect of lithocholic acid as a ligand of vitamin D receptor on hair growth in alopecia
Lithocholic acid helps hair growth and regeneration in alopecia by activating vitamin D receptors.
research Lichen planus
Lichen planus is a skin condition that can resolve on its own, is linked to hepatitis C, and increases the risk of skin cancer.
research Molecular mechanism of ligand recognition and activation of lysophosphatidic acid receptor LPAR6
LPAR6 has a unique way of binding and activating, which helps in designing treatments for hair loss and cancer.
research Lysine Carboxymethyl Cysteinate (LCC) Protects the Epidermis from UVB-Induced Barrier Damage Through the Activation of Autophagy
Lysine carboxymethyl cysteinate (LCC) has been shown to protect the epidermis from UVB-induced damage by activating autophagy. In a study using a 3D living skin equivalent model, LCC restored epidermal cell thickness by 9.67% and significantly increased the expression of biomarkers related to skin hydration and cornified envelope formation. Transcriptomics analysis in human keratinocytes revealed that LCC influences glutathione synthesis, oxidation response, inflammation, and autophagy. The protective effects of LCC, particularly in barrier formation and autophagy, were confirmed and shown to be negated by chloroquine, an autophagy inhibitor. These findings highlight LCC's potential in safeguarding skin integrity against UVB damage.
research Central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
CCCA causes progressive hair loss in Black women, starting from a central scalp patch.
research Central Centrifugal Cicatricial Alopecia (CCCA)
CCCA is a common hair loss condition in African American women, often inherited and influenced by hairstyling, with unique scalp features detectable by special tools.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Lysophosphatidic acid increases the proliferation and migration of adipose-derived stem cells via the generation of reactive oxygen species
Lysophosphatidic acid boosts stem cell growth and movement by creating reactive oxygen species.
research 481 Pathogenic variants affecting peptidyl arginine deiminase 3 and its major substrates underlie central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Genetic changes in specific proteins contribute to hair loss in some women of African descent.
research Lipid-based liquid crystals as drug delivery vehicles for antimicrobial peptides
Cubosomes enhance antimicrobial peptide stability and effectiveness.
research A Mosaic Hotspot PLCD1 Variant, Detectable in Blood‐Derived DNA , Associated With Nevus Trichilemmocysticus
A rare genetic variant linked to skin cysts was found in blood DNA, suggesting its role in cyst formation.
research Patch test positive results in patients with biopsy‐proven central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Allergens might contribute to CCCA, so avoiding them could help manage the condition.
