research Expression of an Olfactomedin-Related Gene in Rat Hair Follicular Papilla Cells
FP-1 is a key protein in rat hair growth, active only during the growth phase.
research Parathyroid hormone-related peptide and the hair cycle - is it the agonists or the antagonists that cause hair growth?
PTHRP agonists can stimulate hair growth, especially in damaged follicles, while antagonists may initially increase growth but ultimately inhibit it.
research Effects of the biomimetic peptide Sh-Polypeptide 9 (CG-VEGF) on cocultures of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and microvascular endothelial cells
Sh-Polypeptide 9 may be better than minoxidil for hair growth and protection against damage.
research Advances in molecular pathogenesis of hidradenitis suppurativa: Dysregulated keratins and ECM signaling
Recent findings suggest that genetic factors, immune system issues, and skin cell defects might contribute to the development of hidradenitis suppurativa.
