research The cutaneous serotoninergic/melatoninergic system: securing a place under the sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Regulation of somatic cell reprogramming through inducible mir-302 expression
Increasing mir-302 turns human hair cells into stem cells by changing gene regulation and demethylation.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Defective trophoblast function in mice with a targeted mutation of Ets2
Ets2 gene is crucial for placental development in mice.
research Deletion of Deoxyribonucleic Acid Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
Mutations in the SRD5A3 gene cause a new type of glycosylation disorder by blocking the production of a molecule necessary for protein glycosylation.
research Noggin is required for induction of the hair follicle growth phase in postnatal skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research Lecithin organogels as a potential phospholipid-structured system for topical drug delivery: A review
Lecithin organogels could be good for applying drugs to the skin because they are stable, safe, and can improve drug absorption.
research Androgen‐inducible TGF‐β1 from balding dermal papilla cells inhibits epithelial cell growth: a clue to understanding paradoxical effects of androgen on human hair growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research Proteomic analysis of human mesenchymal stromal cell secretomes: a systematic comparison of the angiogenic potential
Wharton's jelly secretomes are best for promoting blood vessel growth.
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 Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Differential Expression of Fibromodulin, a Transforming Growth Factor-β Modulator, in Fetal Skin Development and Scarless Repair
Fibromodulin might help reduce scarring if increased in adult wounds like in fetal skin that heals without scars.
research Review of Pharmacological Effects ofMyrtus communisL. and its Active Constituents

research Gender differences in skin: A review of the literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Mechanical and biological properties of keratose biomaterials
Keratose, derived from human hair, is a non-toxic biomaterial good for tissue regeneration and integrates well with body tissues.
