research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Epithelial stem cells and implications for wound repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
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 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 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 Acne and Systemic Disease
Hormones, especially androgens, play a key role in acne, which can be a symptom of systemic diseases like PCOS and may require targeted treatment.
research A histologic review of 27 patients with lichen planopilaris
The conclusion is that certain scalp tissue changes are characteristic of lichen planopilaris, with mucinous perifollicular fibroplasia being a new feature for diagnosis.
research 9 Pilosebaceous physiology in relation to hirsutism and acne
Male hormones are important for hair and oil gland development and can cause conditions like excessive hair growth and acne.
research Sex Steroid Hormone Receptors in Human Skin Appendage and its Neoplasms
Sex steroids influence skin appendage function and neoplasm development, with changes in AR and ERalpha in certain gland neoplasms.
research Compartmentalized Epidermal Activation of β-Catenin Differentially Affects Lineage Reprogramming and Underlies Tumor Heterogeneity
Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Selected Disorders of Skin Appendages—Acne, Alopecia, Hyperhidrosis
The conclusion is that acne, alopecia, and hyperhidrosis are common skin issues with various treatments available, and accurate diagnosis is key for effective management.
research Stem cells in embryonic skin development
The origins of many adult skin stem cells are still mostly unknown.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research A hypothetical pathogenesis model for androgenic alopecia: clarifying the dihydrotestosterone paradox and rate-limiting recovery factors
The model suggests that scalp tension could lead to hair loss, with factors like blood vessel hardening, enlarged oil glands, and poor microcirculation also playing a role. It also hints at a possible link between skull shape and baldness pattern.
research Biochemistry of epidermal stem cells
The review found that different stem cell types in the skin are crucial for repair and could help treat skin diseases and cancer.
research Llama Dermatology
Llamas often have skin issues like mange, bacterial infections, and allergies, with some treatable by zinc.
research Androgens and acne: perspectives on clascoterone, the first topical androgen receptor antagonist
Clascoterone is a new, effective, and safe acne treatment without systemic side effects.
research Clinical and histological characterization of multifocal, spontaneous, noninfectious alopecia in N orwegian puffin dogs (lundehunds)
Norwegian puffin dogs have a unique type of hair loss that often doesn't get better on its own and responds well to ciclosporin treatment.
research Acne
Acne is a common skin condition linked to diet, hormones, and genetics, and early treatment can prevent scarring.
research PHARMACOLOGICAL BASIS FOR CLINICAL USE OF ANTIANDROGENS
Cyproterone acetate is used to treat conditions like prostate cancer, early puberty, excessive sexual drive, and female androgenization by affecting androgen functions and suppressing certain hormones.
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 Histopathological analysis of skin adnexal tumors at tertiary care hospital
Most skin adnexal tumors are benign and require histopathological examination for accurate diagnosis.
research Case 22
The dog had sebaceous adenitis, treated with ciclosporin, leading to some hair regrowth.
research Disorders of the skin appendages
The document concludes that proper recognition and treatment of skin appendage disorders are important for management.
research Androgen effects on the skin
Androgens like testosterone affect skin health and can lead to conditions such as acne and hair loss, with various treatments available.
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 Hair Growth Induction: Roles of Growth Factors
EGF and FGF help hair growth by affecting cell differentiation and fiber growth.
research Distinctive histopathologic findings in linear morphea (en coup de sabre) alopecia
The study found unique skin changes in a rare type of alopecia linked to a skin condition called linear morphea.
