780-810 / 1000+ results research The cell-surface marker MTS24 identifies a novel population of follicular keratinocytes with characteristics of progenitor cells
MTS24 marks a new type of skin cell that helps hair growth and repair.
research Abnormal differentiation of epidermis in transgenic mice constitutively expressing cyclooxygenase-2 in skin
Overexpression of COX-2 in mice skin causes abnormal skin and hair development.
research Role of insulin, insulin‐like growth factor‐1, hyperglycaemic food and milk consumption in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Eating high-glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research The Human Sebocyte Culture Model Provides New Insights into Development and Management of Seborrhoea and Acne
The human sebocyte culture model has improved understanding of oily skin and acne, and how they can be treated.
research Hedgehog signalling in skin development and cancer
The hedgehog signalling pathway is key in skin development and basal cell carcinoma, offering insights for prevention and treatment.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research p63 expression in normal skin and usual cutaneous carcinomas
p63 may influence skin cancer development and cell differentiation.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
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 Androgen action on human skin – from basic research to clinical significance
Hormones like testosterone affect skin functions and can cause skin issues when in excess; treatments to manage these effects are only somewhat effective.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Vitamin D receptor is essential for normal keratinocyte stem cell function
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for normal hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Transfollicular drug delivery—Is it a reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Acne, the Skin Microbiome, and Antibiotic Treatment
Antibiotics can reduce acne but may lead to resistant bacteria, and understanding the skin's bacteria is important for treatment.
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 The role of fibroblast growth factor receptor 2b in skin homeostasis and cancer development
Fgfr2b helps maintain healthy skin and prevent cancer.
research Distribution and number of epidermal growth factor receptors in skin is related to epithelial cell growth
EGF receptors are crucial for skin cell growth and decrease with age.
research Mechanism of transdermal permeation promotion of lipophilic drugs by ethosomes
Ethosomes are effective for delivering drugs through the skin by penetrating deeply and targeting hair follicles.
research Phospholipase C 1 is required for skin stem cell lineage commitment
Phospholipase Cδ1 is crucial for normal skin and hair development.
research Immunohistochemical localization of types 1 and 2 5α-reductase in human scalp
The study found that two enzymes linked to hair loss are located in different parts of the scalp, supporting a common treatment's effectiveness.
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 Histopathologic Evaluation of Alopecias
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires careful examination of hair and scalp tissue, considering both clinical and microscopic features.
research Development and Homeostasis of the Skin Epidermis
The skin protects the body and is constantly renewed by stem cells; disruptions can lead to cancer.
research Dynamic regulation of retinoic acid-binding proteins in developing, adult and neoplastic skin reveals roles for β-catenin and Notch signalling
Retinoic acid-binding proteins in skin are regulated by β-catenin and Notch signalling.
research Demodex mites
Demodex mites can cause skin issues, especially in people with weak immune systems.
research Updated Treatment for Acne: Targeted Therapy Based on Pathogenesis
Future acne treatments should aggressively target inflammation to prevent scarring.
research Bioengineering a 3D integumentary organ system from iPS cells using an in vivo transplantation model
Researchers created a fully functional, bioengineered skin system with hair from stem cells that successfully integrated when transplanted into mice.
