Stabilizing HIF-1A in hair follicles may reduce oxidative stress and promote hair growth by increasing glycolysis.
research Cicatricial alopecia: What’s new in etiology?
Cicatricial alopecia, a permanent hair loss condition, is mainly caused by damage to specific hair follicle stem cells and abnormal immune responses, with gene regulator PPAR-y and lipid metabolism disorders playing significant roles.
research Hair follicles, their disorders and their opportunities
Hair follicles offer promising targets for delivering drugs to treat hair and skin conditions.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
