research Alopecia Areata in C3H/HeJ Mice Involves Leukocyte-mediated Root Sheath Disruption in Advance of Overt Hair Loss
Hair loss in mice starts with immune cells damaging hair roots before it becomes visible.
research Procyanidin B-2, extracted from apples, promotes hair growth: a laboratory study
Apple extract called procyanidin B-2 was found to greatly increase hair growth.
research WISP-1 induced by mechanical stress contributes to fibrosis and hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum through Hedgehog-Gli1 signaling
Targeting Hedgehog signaling may help treat ligamentum flavum fibrosis.
research The human gut chemical landscape predicts microbe-mediated biotransformation of foods and drugs
The study developed a tool to predict how gut microbes process foods and drugs, showing that similar compounds often share metabolic pathways and effects.
research Increased lactate dehydrogenase activity is dispensable in squamous carcinoma cells of origin
High lactate dehydrogenase activity is not necessary for the growth of squamous cell carcinoma.
research CC-type glutaredoxins mediate plant response and signaling under nitrate starvation in Arabidopsis
ROXY proteins help plants respond to nitrate shortage by affecting nutrient sensing and growth.
research Trichoscopy in Hair Shaft Disorders
Trichoscopy is a useful tool for diagnosing hair disorders without pulling out hair.
research Guidelines for the diagnosis and treatment of male-pattern and female-pattern hair loss, 2017 version
Use finasteride, dutasteride, and minoxidil for hair loss treatment.
research Macrophages Promote Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Regeneration in a CX3CR1- and TGF-β1–Dependent Manner
Macrophages help hair growth after injury through CX3CR1 and TGF-β1.
research The transdermal inhibition of melanogenesis by a cell-membrane-permeable peptide delivery system based on poly-arginine
A new skin-whitening agent using a peptide from wheat is safe and effective at reducing skin pigmentation.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research Shikimic acid, a mannose bioisostere, promotes hair growth with the induction of anagen hair cycle
Shikimic acid promotes hair growth.
research Roxithromycin-loaded lipid nanoparticles for follicular targeting
Tiny particles carrying roxithromycin can effectively target and deliver the drug to hair follicles without irritation.
research Finasteride Attenuates Pathological Gambling in Patients With Parkinson Disease
Finasteride reduces gambling symptoms in Parkinson's patients.
research Electrospun fibrous sponge via short fiber for mimicking 3D ECM
The 3D electrospun fibrous sponge is promising for tissue repair and healing diabetic wounds.
research The Effects of Androgens on T Cells: Clues to Female Predominance in Autoimmune Liver Diseases?
Androgens may influence T cells, contributing to higher autoimmune liver disease risk in women.
research Glutamate transporter Slc1a3 mediates inter‐niche stem cell activation during skin growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Sex hormones and sarcopenia in older persons
Sex hormone treatments can increase muscle mass in older adults but have inconsistent effects on muscle function and may carry cardiovascular risks.
research Pathophysiology of the Behçet's Disease
Behçet's Disease may be caused by genetic and environmental factors leading to abnormal immune responses, and stress management and new treatments could improve patient outcomes.
research Ion pairs of risedronate for transdermal delivery and enhanced permeation rate on hairless mouse skin
Ion-paired risedronate significantly increases skin penetration without irritation compared to risedronate alone.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Over-expression of thymosin beta4 promotes abnormal tooth development and stimulation of hair growth
Too much thymosin beta4 causes weird teeth and more hair growth in mice.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth in Vivoa
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research Severe Physical Complications among Survivors of Stevens–Johnson Syndrome and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
SJS/TEN survivors often have severe, overlooked long-term physical problems that are not properly treated after leaving the hospital.
research FOXN1 Deficiency: from the Discovery to Novel Therapeutic Approaches
New treatments for immune disorders caused by FOXN1 deficiency are promising.
research Fractional resurfacing in the Asian patient: Current state of the art
Fractional resurfacing is safe and effective for certain skin conditions in Asian patients, but care must be taken to avoid skin pigmentation issues.
research Microencapsulated cell tracking
