research Stem cells and the circadian clock
The circadian clock influences the behavior and regeneration of stem cells in the body.
research The SAHA Syndrome
SAHA syndrome is a condition in women involving skin and hair issues, often related to hormonal imbalances, and is treated based on the underlying cause.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia: reflections and hypotheses on aetiology and pathogenesis
FFA's causes may include environmental triggers and genetic factors.
research Targeted gene delivery to skin cells in vivo: A comparative study of liposomes and polymers as delivery vehicles
Nonionic liposomes are the best for delivering genes to skin cells.
research The Modulatable Stem Cell Niche: Tissue Interactions during Hair and Feather Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that for hair and feather growth, it's better to target the environment around stem cells than the cells themselves.
research Trans‐species hair growth induction by human hair follicle dermal papillae
Human hair follicle cells can grow hair when put into mouse skin if they stay in contact with mouse cells.
research Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: An Update on Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment
The cause of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia is unclear, diagnosis involves clinical evaluation and various treatments exist, but their effectiveness is uncertain.
research External light activates hair follicle stem cells through eyes via an ipRGC–SCN–sympathetic neural pathway
Light can turn on hair growth cells through a nerve path starting in the eyes.
research Dynamic Signals for Hair Follicle Development and Regeneration
Certain signals and genes play a key role in hair growth and regeneration, and understanding these could lead to new treatments for skin regeneration.
research The C3H/HeJ mouse and DEBR rat models for alopecia areata: review of preclinical drug screening approaches and results
Both mouse and rat models are effective for testing alopecia areata treatments.
research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Penetration and distribution of three lipophilic probes in vitro in human skin focusing on the hair follicle
Medium lipophilic substances penetrate skin best, and adding ethanol can increase delivery to hair follicles.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Selected Disorders of Skin Appendages—Acne, Alopecia, Hyperhidrosis
The conclusion is that acne, alopecia, and hyperhidrosis are common skin issues with various treatments available, and accurate diagnosis is key for effective management.
research Pitx2, a β-catenin-regulated transcription factor, regulates the differentiation of outer root sheath cells cultured in vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
research Cosmetic aspects of pregnancy
Pregnant women often experience skin and hair changes, with over half getting stretch marks and pigment changes, and should be cautious with cosmetic procedures due to potential risks.
research Gelatin-chondroitin-6-sulfate-hyaluronic acid scaffold seeded with vascular endothelial growth factor 165 modified hair follicle stem cells as a three-dimensional skin substitute
Modified rat stem cells on a special scaffold improved blood vessel formation and wound healing in skin substitutes.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities – Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research Female Androgenetic Alopecia: An Update on Diagnosis and Management
FAGA diagnosis uses blood tests and trichoscopy, with treatments like topical minoxidil, oral anti-androgens, and hormone-modulating drugs.
research Genetics and other factors in the aetiology of female pattern hair loss
Female pattern hair loss has unclear causes, possibly involving genetics, hormones, and environment, and needs better treatments.
research Reflections on how wound healing-promoting effects of the hair follicle can be translated into clinical practice
Hair follicles can help wounds heal faster and this knowledge could be used to treat chronic skin ulcers, with a potential use of a special stem cell hydrogel to enhance healing.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
