research Testosterone-like immunoreactivity in hair measured in minute sample amounts - a competitive radioimmunoassay with an adequate limit of detection
The new test can measure very small amounts of testosterone in hair, and grinding the hair up first gives more accurate results.
research Isolating subpopulations of human epidermal basal cells based on polyclonal serum against trypsin-resistant CSPG4 epitopes
The research found a way to identify and study skin cells with stem cell traits, revealing they behave differently in culture and questioning current stemness assessment methods.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research Localization of varicella-zoster virus nucleic acids and proteins in human skin
The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.
research URB expression in human dermal papilla cells
The gene URB is more active in human hair growth cells and responds to a hair-related hormone.
research Antibody-Capped Mesoporous Nanoscopic Materials: Design of a Probe for the Selective Chromo-Fluorogenic Detection of Finasteride
Probe detects finasteride with high selectivity and low detection limit.
research Induction of versican by ascorbic acid 2-phosphate in dermal papilla cells
Vitamin C derivative increases versican in cells, potentially aiding hair growth.
research Loss of Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor in Human Alopecia Hair Follicles
Hair follicles in people with alopecia have lower levels of a key blood vessel growth protein.
research Immunohistochemical localization of types 1 and 2 5α-reductase in human scalp
The study found that two enzymes linked to hair loss are located in different parts of the scalp, supporting a common treatment's effectiveness.
research Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for doping control of 5α-reductase inhibitors finasteride and dutasteride
New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.
research AN SYNOPTIC OVERVIEW ON AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS AND ITS MANAGEMENT
Autoimmune diseases cause the immune system to attack the body, and management varies as some are curable and others are not.
research AN SYNOPTIC OVERVIEW ON AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS AND ITS MANAGEMENT
Autoimmune diseases cause the immune system to attack the body, and management varies as some are curable and others are not.

A cat with a rare pancreatic tumor and diabetes died despite treatment, showing similar symptoms to a human condition.
research LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS AND THE SKIN
Lupus affects the skin in various ways, and proper skin examination is crucial for diagnosis and treatment.
research Ultrastructural aspect of the keratinolytic activity of piedra.
Piedraia hortae fungi dissolve both the outer and inner layers of hair.
research Different Levels of 5α-Reductase Type I and II, Aromatase, and Androgen Receptor in Hair Follicles of Women and Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
People with hair loss have more androgen receptors and enzymes in certain follicles, with men and women showing different patterns.
research Functional lacrimal gland regeneration by transplantation of a bioengineered organ germ
Bioengineered lacrimal glands can restore tear production and protect eyes.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Comparative Proteomics Indicates That Biosynthesis of Pectic Precursors Is Important for Cotton Fiber and Arabidopsis Root Hair Elongation
Pectin biosynthesis is essential for the growth of cotton fibers and Arabidopsis root hairs.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research p53 Involvement in the Control of Murine Hair Follicle Regression
The p53 protein helps control hair follicle shrinking by promoting cell death in mice.
research Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor and proglucagon expression in mouse skin
Mice skin has components that could help with hair growth and might be used for diabetes treatment.
research Deficient Plakophilin-1 Expression Due to a Mutation in PKP1 Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia-Skin Fragility Syndrome in Chesapeake Bay Retriever Dogs
A PKP1 gene mutation causes skin fragility and hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retriever puppies.
research Re-investigating the Basement Membrane Zone of Psoriatic Epidermal Lesions: Is Laminin-511 a New Player in Psoriasis Pathogenesis?
Laminin-511 may contribute to psoriasis by affecting skin cell growth and survival.
research Evidence that mirex promotes a unique population of epidermal cells that cannot be distinguished by their mutant Ha-ras genotype
Mirex seems to promote a unique group of skin cells different from those affected by another tumor promoter, TPA.
research Spatial and temporal control of laminin-511 and -332 expressions during catagen
