research Follicular transport route – Research progress and future perspectives
Hair follicles help absorb and store topical compounds, aiding targeted drug delivery.
research Alopecia areata: a review of disease pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
research Biology of estrogens in skin: implications for skin aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
Some people with pattern hair loss may also have scalp inflammation and scarring similar to lichen planopilaris.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Tributyltin (TBT) effects on Ocinebrina aciculata (Gastropoda: Muricidae): imposex development, sterilization, sex change and population decline
Tributyltin exposure causes sex changes, sterilization, and decline in the snail Ocinebrina aciculata, risking its extinction.
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 biology of hair morphogenesis: Development and cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Superficial granulomatous pyoderma: A localized vegetative form of pyoderma gangrenosum
Superficial granulomatous pyoderma is a unique, mild form of skin disease that often heals without strong medication and responds well to milder treatments.
research dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research Regulatory Roles of Cytokinins and Cytokinin Signaling in Response to Potassium Deficiency in Arabidopsis
Reduced cytokinin levels help plants adapt to low potassium by increasing root hair growth and potassium uptake.
research Stretching the limits: from homeostasis to stem cell plasticity in wound healing and cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Molecular basis of androgenetic alopecia: From androgen to paracrine mediators through dermal papilla
Male pattern baldness involves hormones and cell signals affecting hair growth.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research Common skin infections in children
The document concludes that molluscum contagiosum is a common, benign skin infection in children, often healing without scarring.
research Anti-ageing effect of a lactococcal strain: analysis using senescence-accelerated mice
Lactococcus lactis strain H61 may reduce some ageing symptoms.
research Molecular signaling in feather morphogenesis
Feather growth and regeneration involve complex patterns, stem cells, and evolutionary insights.
research Nanoparticle systems reduce systemic toxicity in cancer treatment
Nanoparticle systems make cancer treatment less toxic.
research Choice of recall period for patient-reported outcome (PRO) measures: criteria for consideration
Choosing the right recall period for patient feedback is important for accurate data and depends on the disease, symptom changes, and patient impact.
research Sensitive scalp: does this condition exist? An epidemiological study
Nearly half of the French individuals surveyed reported having a sensitive scalp, more common in women, often linked to hair loss and symptoms like itching, and triggered by factors including shampoos and pollution.
research CHRONIC TELOGEN EFFLUVIUM
Chronic Telogen Effluvium is a hair loss condition in middle-aged women that usually doesn't lead to complete baldness.
research Cutaneous Syndromes Produced as Side Effects of Triparanol Therapy
Triparanol therapy can cause hair loss and skin dryness without inflammation or damage to hair follicles or skin structures.
research Telogen Effluvium: A Review
Hair loss from Telogen Effluvium usually gets better within 6 months after addressing the cause.
research Losing Hair, Losing Points?: The Effects of Male Pattern Baldness on Social Impression Formation1
Bald men are often viewed more negatively and as older than they really are.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of selective estrogen receptor modulators
Estrogens and SERMs can help with skin aging, but their safety and effectiveness need more research.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia developing after hair transplantation for androgenetic alopecia
Hair transplant destroyed by lichen planopilaris.
research Pathogenesis of Hand-Foot Syndrome induced by PEG-modified liposomal Doxorubicin
PEGL-DOX causes Hand-Foot Syndrome due to skin reactions from prolonged circulation and ROS generation.
research Hypertrichosis in females applying minoxidil topical solution and in normal controls
Minoxidil use increases facial hair growth in females, more in older users.
research Telogen effluvium: a sequela of COVID‐19
COVID-19 may cause a temporary hair loss condition called telogen effluvium in some patients after recovery.
