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 Epidermal abnormalities and increased malignancy of skin tumors in human epidermal keratin 8‐expressing transgenic mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Secondary Cicatricial and other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Adnexotropic Variants of the Interface Dermatitides: A Review
The review emphasizes the need to recognize skin conditions that affect hair follicles and sweat glands to avoid misdiagnosis.
research Retinoids Putting the “A” in Alopecia
Vitamin A may influence hair loss conditions like alopecia, but more research is needed to understand how.
research Non-Neoplastic Disorders of Hair
The document concludes that different types of hair loss have specific treatments, and early diagnosis is crucial for preventing permanent hair loss.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Dermoscopy in General Dermatology: A Practical Overview
Dermoscopy is a useful tool for identifying features of skin conditions, but more research is needed to define its role in dermatology.
research Dissecting the microenvironment around biosynthetic scaffolds in murine skin wound healing
Different scaffold patterns improve wound healing and immune response in mouse skin, with aligned patterns being particularly effective.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Meis1 Regulates Epidermal Stem Cells and Is Required for Skin Tumorigenesis
Meis1 is crucial for skin health and tumor development.
research Evaluation of hair loss
Detailed patient history and physical exams are crucial for diagnosing hair loss.
research Cicatricial (scarring) alopecia
Different types of scarring alopecia may be stages of one disease, and accurate diagnosis is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Dermatoscopic findings of syphilitic alopecia
Dermoscopy helps diagnose syphilitic alopecia, and treatment with penicillin can regrow hair.
research The role of tight junctions in skin barrier function and dermal absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Permanent alopecia after cranial irradiation: Dose–response relationship
Higher doses of cranial irradiation are linked to permanent hair loss.
research Sebaceous immunobiology - skin homeostasis, pathophysiology, coordination of innate immunity and inflammatory response and disease associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Secondary cicatricial and other permanent alopecias
The document says that treating the root cause of hair follicle damage is crucial to prevent permanent hair loss, and treatment options vary.
research Inhibition of T-cell activity in alopecia areata: recent developments and new directions
New treatments targeting T-cell pathways are needed for better alopecia areata management.
research Molecular and spatial design of early skin development
The research reveals how early embryonic mouse skin develops from simple to complex structures, identifying various cell types and their roles in this process.
research LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS AND THE SKIN

research Aging Skin: A Window to the Body
Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
research Age-induced hair greying - the multiple effects of oxidative stress
Hair greying is caused by oxidative stress damaging hair follicles and melanocytes.
research What’s New in the Histologic Evaluation of Alopecia and Hair-Related Disorders?
New biopsy techniques and tools improve alopecia diagnosis, and both too much and too little selenium can cause hair loss.
research British Society for Dermatopathology
Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.
research Targeting the Wnt pathways for therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
research Nanotechnology in Dermatology
Nanotechnology in dermatology shows promise for better drug delivery and treatment effectiveness but requires more safety research.
research RANK as a therapeutic target in cancer
