research SLE and Serum Complement: Causative, Concomitant or Coincidental?
Low serum complement levels in SLE patients don't always match with disease flares; monitoring C3 and C4 is useful, but cell-bound complement products might better indicate disease activity.
research Intracrine Testosterone Activation in Human Pancreatic β-Cells Stimulates Insulin Secretion
Testosterone helps human pancreatic cells increase insulin release.
research Innate lymphoid cells type 1 may be new, non-antigen-specific player in the pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Innate lymphoid cells type 1 may contribute to alopecia areata by damaging hair follicles.
research As a carrier–transporter for hair follicle reconstitution, platelet-rich plasma promotes proliferation and induction of mouse dermal papilla cells
Platelet-rich plasma can help grow more mouse hair follicles, but it doesn't work for human hair follicles yet.
research Differentiation of Human Dermal Mesenchymal Stem Cells into Cardiomyocytes by Treatment with 5-Azacytidine: Concept for Regenerative Therapy in Myocardial Infarction

Innate lymphoid cells help us understand and manage allergic diseases better.
research 812 Multi-view light sheet florescence microscopy (LSFM) for imaging cellular self-assembly in spheroids of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes
The technique effectively shows how human skin and hair cells form into ball-like structures.
research Surgery Update for General Dermatologists Session 1
Most patients with Lichen planopilaris improved with acitretin, but treatments often didn't work well; preventing infection in skin surgery is important, and bupivacaine might be a better anesthetic.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for BCC Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch flox/flox CD4Cre +/− Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Alopecia Areata, Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis, and Ulcerative Colitis: Autoimmunity and Apoptosis as Common Links?
The conditions alopecia areata, primary sclerosing cholangitis, and ulcerative colitis may be linked by shared autoimmune and cell death mechanisms.
research The role of B cell-activating factor system in autoimmune diseases: mechanisms, disease implications, and therapeutic advances
BAFF-targeted therapies can reduce autoimmune disease activity, but more research is needed for precise treatments.
research Dusko Ilic† explores the latest developments in the field of stem cell research and regenerative medicine
Stem cell research and regenerative medicine have made significant advancements in treating various diseases and conditions.
research 2. Internal Medicine
Certain drugs can cause skin lupus, but stopping the drug usually helps. Vaccines work against smallpox, genital herpes, and a type of human papillomavirus. More frequent light therapy clears psoriasis faster. Certain treatments work for psoriasis and dermatitis. A specific cream effectively treats a type of skin cancer. Low iron levels aren't directly linked to chronic hair loss.
research A Mouse Model for Studying Stem Cell Effects on Regeneration of Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheaths
The study found that stem cells and neutrophils are important for regenerating hair follicle structures in mice.
research Nutraceuticals known to promote hair growth do not interfere with the inhibitory action of tamoxifen in MCF7, T47D and BT483 breast cancer cell lines
Nutraceuticals that promote hair growth do not reduce tamoxifen's effectiveness in breast cancer treatment.
research Exploring the Causal Relationship Between Plasma Proteins and Obstructive Sleep Apnea: A Study Using Genome-Wide Mendelian Randomization, Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Analysis, and Network Pharmacology
Certain plasma proteins and genes are linked to obstructive sleep apnea, suggesting potential new treatments.
research Towards cell-based therapy of alopecia areata: Autologous human Vδ2+ Foxp3+ γδTreg cells restore hair-follicle immune privilege and promote hair regrowth in human alopecia areata models ex vivo and in vivo
Special cells can help regrow hair in alopecia areata.
research Tissue engineering of skin and regenerative medicine for wound care
Current skin substitutes help heal severe burns but don't fully replicate natural skin features.
research Biofabrication of Human Skin with Its Appendages
Current methods can't fully recreate skin and its features, and more research is needed for clinical use.
research Understanding the Impact of Reperfusion in the Development of a Safe Compression Therapy
Intermittent compression therapy is safe and doesn't harm tissue.
research Advances in genetic and molecular understanding of Omenn syndrome - implications for the future
Newborn screening and gene therapy are expected to improve outcomes for Omenn syndrome patients.
research Morphometric prediction of mesenchymal stromal cell-like immunosuppressive capacity of human hair follicle dermal sheath cup cells: an implication for regenerative medicine in hair loss diseases
Human hair follicle cells can help regenerate hair and reduce inflammation, aiding in hair loss treatment.
research 066 Comparison of alopecia areata induction in C3H/HeH mice by injection of lymphocytes from mice with induced vs. spontaneous disease
Both induced and spontaneous AA lymphocytes can cause alopecia areata in mice.
