research Clinical Snippets
New treatments for hair growth and psoriasis may be possible, and gene differences could affect baldness and the severity of skin conditions.
research 1349 Inducing fate changes at the hair follicle stem cell nice
The study found that aging hair follicle stem cells change behavior, leading to hair loss, but drugs targeting these cells may help restore hair growth.
research Seborrheic karatosis, a tumor of the infundibular and isthmus of hair follicles: Identification of hair sheath keratins and histopathological features suggesting hair follicle origin.
Seborrheic keratosis likely originates from the upper regions of hair follicles.
research Pantolactams as androgen receptor antagonists for the topical suppression of sebum production
Pfizer found that pantolactam-based compounds can reduce sebum (skin oil) production when applied topically.
research Scalp Apocrine Glands: The Neglected Component of the Hair Follicle Complex
Scalp apocrine glands may help remove waste and balance electrolytes, but their role is not fully understood.
research Nevus Sebaceous
Nevus sebaceous is identified by unique skin changes, including thickened skin, fewer hair follicles, and many sebaceous glands.
research 1321 Endocannabinoid-like molecule oleoylethanolamide promotes sebaceous lipid synthesis
Oleoylethanolamide (OEA) safely boosts fat production in skin cells and may help treat dry skin and reduce inflammation.
research LB1045 Inhibition of pyruvate oxidation activates human hair follicle stem cells ex vivo
PP405 may help hair growth by activating hair follicle stem cells.
research Sox2 in the dermal papilla regulates hair follicle pigmentation
Sox2 controls hair color by affecting pigment production in hair follicles.
research Targeted expression of activated erbB-2 to the epidermis of transgenic mice elicits striking developmental abnormalities in the epidermis and hair follicles.
Activated erbB-2 in mice skin causes severe skin and hair abnormalities.
research Functions of peroxisome proliferator‐activated receptors (PPAR) in skin homeostasis
PPARs help regulate skin health and could be used to treat skin disorders.
research Expression of the hair stem cell-specific keratin 15 in pilar tumors of the skin.
K15 staining helps distinguish basal cell carcinoma from trichoepithelioma.
research Bioengineering a humanized acne microenvironment model: Proteomics analysis of host responses to Propionibacterium acnes infection in vivo
A new model helps study acne and test treatments.
research The arrector pili muscle, the bridge between the follicular stem cell niche and the interfollicular epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research Overexpression of the calcium sensing receptor accelerates epidermal differentiation and permeability barrier formation in vivo
Increasing calcium sensing receptor speeds up skin and hair development in mice.
research 083 The effect of topical hair growth promoters on internal calcium of human outer root sheath cells(ORSCs)
research Epidermal patterning and induction of different hair types during mouse embryonic development
Different body areas in mice produce different hair types due to interactions between skin layers.
research Transforming growth factor-alpha immunoreactivity during induced hair follicle growth cycles in sheep and ferrets.
TGF-alpha is present in sheep and ferret skin and may affect hair growth without directly stimulating cell proliferation.
research Growth of the Mouse Coat VII. Hair Cycles and Sebaceous Glands in Homozygous and Heterozygous Naked Mice
The Naked gene in mice causes abnormal sebaceous glands and disrupts hair follicle organization.
research Expression Profiling Reveals Genes Involved in the Regulation of Wool Follicle Bulb Regression and Regeneration in Sheep
The research identified genes and pathways important for sheep wool growth and shedding.
research Distinct Developmental Functions of Prostasin (CAP1/PRSS8) Zymogen and Activated Prostasin
Prostasin has two roles in skin: one for normal skin development without needing activation, and another for proper hair growth that requires activation.
research TCF/Lef1 activity controls establishment of diverse stem and progenitor cell compartments in mouse epidermis
TCF/Lef1 activity is essential for proper skin cell development and renewal.
research Feature-Based Molecular Networks Identification of Bioactive Metabolites from Three Plants of the Polynesian Cosmetopoeia Targeting the Dermal Papilla Cells of the Hair Cycle
Certain compounds in three Polynesian plants may help hair growth.
research Selective follicular targeting by modification of the particle sizes
Medium-sized particles penetrate hair follicles better than smaller or larger ones, which could improve delivery of skin treatments.
research 129 Targeted inhibition of EGFR reduces anti-microbial defense mechanisms at the hair canal
Inhibiting EGFR weakens skin's defense against bacteria.
research Gene Expression Profiling of the Intact Dermal Sheath Cup of Human Hair Follicles
Researchers found specific genes in the part of hair follicles that could help treat hair disorders.
research Androgens modulate keratinocyte differentiation indirectly through enhancing growth factor production from dermal fibroblasts
Male hormones indirectly affect skin cell development by increasing growth factor levels from skin fibroblasts.
research CRABP2 Promotes the Proliferation of Dermal Papilla Cells via the Wnt/β-Catenin Pathway
CRABP2 helps increase the growth of cells important for hair growth by activating a specific growth pathway.
research Leptin controls hair follicle cycling
