Research
120-150 / 1000+ results research Immunohistochemical Pattern of CD34 Distribution in Different Types of Basal Cell Carcinoma and in Peritumoral Skin
CD34 is absent in most basal cell carcinoma cells but present in surrounding skin.
research Rare Diagnosis of a Proliferating Pilar Tumor in a Facial Hairline Cryst
The lump on a woman's scalp was a rare, potentially cancerous tumor from the hair follicle, not a common cyst.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research The Suppression of Very Long Chain Fatty Acids Is Associated with Skin Carcinogenesis
Suppressing very long chain fatty acids is linked to skin cancer.
research Scalp photodamage in balding men: An observational study combining a novel clinical scoring method with estimation of individual sun exposure history and risk factors
The study concluded that a new method can effectively assess scalp sun damage in balding men, which increases with age and sun exposure.
research Schimmelpenning syndrome with dydimosis aplasticosebacea in a one-month-old girl
Older men's scalp damage increases with age and sun exposure, a baby girl in the Philippines has Schimmelpenning syndrome, and thyroid screening is advised for children with hair loss and certain risk factors.
research Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing skin, with potential for treating skin disorders and improving wound healing.
research Yellow and orange in cutaneous lesions: clinical and dermoscopic data
Yellow and orange colors are important for diagnosing certain skin conditions.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research WNT10A mutation causes ectodermal dysplasia by impairing progenitor cell proliferation and KLF4-mediated differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Scratching the surface of skin development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Cutaneous Androgen Metabolism: Basic Research and Clinical Perspectives
Creating stronger blockers for skin enzymes might lead to better treatment for conditions like acne and excessive hair growth.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research The disintegrin/metalloproteinase Adam10 is essential for epidermal integrity and Notch-mediated signaling
Adam10 enzyme is crucial for healthy skin and proper Notch signaling.
research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research Hormones and the pilosebaceous unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Intracrinology and The Skin
DHEA stimulates skin oil glands and could help postmenopausal women, with potential for acne and excessive hair growth treatments.
research Female Hirsutism: Pathophysiological Considerations and Therapeutic Implications*
Excessive hair growth in women often has no known cause and is not linked to race or other hormonal symptoms.
research Novel skin phenotypes revealed by a genome-wide mouse reverse genetic screen
The research identified new skin traits in mice, some linked to human skin conditions.
research JunB defines functional and structural integrity of the epidermo-pilosebaceous unit in the skin
JunB is crucial for maintaining healthy skin and hair follicles.
research Disruption of Smad4 in Mouse Epidermis Leads to Depletion of Follicle Stem Cells
Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.
research The Transverse Anatomy of Androgenic Alopecia
The study found that horizontal sections of scalp biopsies are better for analyzing hair loss, showing fewer hairs and more fine hairs in balding areas.
research Identification of Anabolic Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators with Reduced Activities in Reproductive Tissues and Sebaceous Glands
Two new compounds were found to build bone and muscle without affecting reproductive organs and skin oil glands.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
