research Identification of a secreted BMP antagonist, ectodin, integrating BMP, FGF, and SHH signals from the tooth enamel knot
Ectodin integrates BMP, SHH, and FGF signals in developing ectodermal organs.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research The Role of Sebaceous Gland Activity and Scalp Microfloral Metabolism in the Etiology of Seborrheic Dermatitis and Dandruff
Dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis are caused by yeast feeding on scalp oils, leading to irritation and flaking.
research Adverse Health Effects of Selenium in Humans
High selenium exposure can harm thyroid function, immune system, liver, skin, and may increase neurotoxicity and cancer risk.
research Melanocyte stem cells: a melanocyte reservoir in hair follicles for hair and skin pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Follow-up of Nutritional and Metabolic Problems After Bariatric Surgery
Patients need long-term care after bariatric surgery to manage potential nutritional and metabolic issues.
research Rapid formation of multicellular spheroids in double-emulsion droplets with controllable microenvironment
A new method quickly creates controllable cell clusters for tissue engineering and drug testing.
research Tofacitinib for the treatment of severe alopecia areata and variants: A study of 90 patients
Tofacitinib is effective and safe for severe hair loss, but full regrowth is less likely after 10 years of hair loss.
research Intradermal adipocytes mediate fibroblast recruitment during skin wound healing
Fat cells help recruit healing cells and build skin structure during wound healing.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: pathogenesis and management
Hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin disease, can be managed with antibiotics, lifestyle changes, and in severe cases, surgery. Early diagnosis and careful planning are key, and laser treatment can be an efficient solution for mild to severe cases.
research The epidermis: rising to the surface
The document concludes that recent research has improved understanding of skin diseases and the balance between cell growth and differentiation in the epidermis.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research Organ-Level Quorum Sensing Directs Regeneration in Hair Stem Cell Populations
Plucking some hairs can trigger nearby unplucked hairs to grow back more due to a collective response.
research Recent advances on the mechanisms of kidney stone formation (Review)
Kidney stones form due to factors like urine concentration, calcium deposits, hormones, gut bacteria, and immune response.
research Bald scalp in men with androgenetic alopecia retains hair follicle stem cells but lacks CD200-rich and CD34-positive hair follicle progenitor cells
Men with baldness due to androgenetic alopecia still have hair stem cells, but lack specific cells needed for hair growth.
research DIHYDROTESTOSTERONE AND THE PROSTATE: THE SCIENTIFIC RATIONALE FOR 5α-REDUCTASE INHIBITORS IN THE TREATMENT OF BENIGN PROSTATIC HYPERPLASIA
Drugs that block DHT production can effectively treat enlarged prostate and improve urinary issues with some sexual side effects.
research Common Variants in the Trichohyalin Gene Are Associated with Straight Hair in Europeans
Common variants in the Trichohyalin gene are linked to straight hair in Europeans.
research Qualitative and Quantitative Assessment of Taste and Smell Changes in Patients Undergoing Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer or Gynecologic Malignancies
Chemotherapy reduces taste and smell, but they mostly recover after treatment; adding spices may help improve appetite.
research Location and phenotype of human adult keratinocyte stem cells of the skin
Stem cells are in deep skin layers, while differentiating cells are in shallow layers.
research Weakly supervised learning of biomedical information extraction from curated data
The method can effectively extract biomedical information without needing expert annotation, performing better than previous models.
research Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Their Clinical Applications
Stem cells are crucial for skin repair and new treatments for chronic wounds.
research Development of polycystic ovary syndrome: involvement of genetic and environmental factors
PCOS is caused by both genetics and environmental factors like diet and obesity.
research Induction of the hair growth phase in postnatal mice by localized transient expression of Sonic hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research Is COVID-19 Gender-sensitive?
Men have more severe COVID-19 outcomes than women.
research The role of keratin proteins and their genes in the growth, structure and properties of hair
Keratin proteins and their genes are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research Efficacy and safety of ritlecitinib in adults and adolescents with alopecia areata: a randomised, double-blind, multicentre, phase 2b–3 trial
Ritlecitinib effectively treats alopecia areata and is well-tolerated.
research Balding hair follicle dermal papilla cells contain higher levels of androgen receptors than those from non-balding scalp
Cells from balding scalps have more androgen receptors than cells from non-balding scalps.
research Peripheral patterns of calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide general somatic sensory innervation: Cutaneous and deep terminations
CGRP-IR axons may help maintain and renew tissues.
research Selective Modulation of Hedgehog/GLI Target Gene Expression by Epidermal Growth Factor Signaling in Human Keratinocytes
