research The Arrector Pili Muscle and the Follicular Unit of the Scalp
Each group of hair follicles on the scalp shares one muscle that helps control hair movement.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Follicular transport route – Research progress and future perspectives
Hair follicles help absorb and store topical compounds, aiding targeted drug delivery.
research Epidermal stem cell diversity and quiescence
Epidermal stem cells are diverse and vary in activity, playing key roles in skin maintenance and repair.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Cicatricial (Scarring) Alopecias
Scarring alopecias are complex hair loss disorders that require early treatment to prevent permanent hair loss.
research Bulge cells of human hair follicles: segregation, cultivation and properties
Researchers found that bulge cells from human hair can grow quickly in culture and have properties of hair follicle stem cells, which could be useful for skin treatments.
research Epidermal keratinocyte stem cells: their maintenance and regulation
Skin stem cells are maintained by signals from nearby cells and vary in their ability to renew and mature.
research Epidermal stem cell fate: what can we learn from embryonic stem cells?
Embryonic and adult stem cells are valuable for improving skin grafts and cell therapy.
research Regulatory effect of β-catenin on proliferation of hair follicle stem cells involves PI3K/Akt pathway
β-catenin helps hair follicle stem cells grow by activating a specific cell pathway.
research SOX2 in the Skin
SOX2 is crucial for skin cell function and hair growth, and it plays a role in skin cancer and wound healing.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Folliculitis and scarring after eyebrow transplantation: an uncommon complication
Eyebrow transplants can rarely cause scarring due to folliculitis.
research Respective Treatment Modalities with the Use of Combined Ingredients to Address Acne Prone Skin
Using combined treatments can help manage acne by targeting the bacteria and skin changes that cause it.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Glucocorticoid and Sex Hormone Receptors: Clinical Implications and Therapeutic Relevance
Glucocorticoids and sex hormones affect skin health, with potential for targeted treatments to minimize side effects and treat skin conditions.
research Regional Dermatology
The document explains hair and nail biology, common hair loss conditions and treatments, oral and genital skin diseases, and the risks and treatments associated with squamous cell carcinoma.
research Penetration and Distribution in Human Skin Focusing on the Hair Follicle
Targeting drugs to hair follicles can treat skin conditions, but reaching deep follicle areas is hard and needs more research.
research Estrogens and aging skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Common Baldness in Women
The document concludes that early diagnosis is key for treating common baldness in women, but reassurance is often the best approach as hair thinning can be a normal part of aging.
research Identification of the cell lineage at the origin of basal cell carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Tracing the cellular origin of cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research Age-associated inflammation inhibits epidermal stem cell function
Aging causes skin stem cells to work less effectively.
research Complex Hair Cycle Domain Patterns and Regenerative Hair Waves in Living Rodents
Mice hair growth patterns get more complex with age and can change with events like pregnancy or injury.
research Follicular Targeting–A Promising Tool in Selective Dermatotherapy
Targeting hair follicles can improve skin treatments and reduce side effects.
research Hair Follicle: A Novel Source of Multipotent Stem Cells for Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicle stem cells are a promising source for tissue repair and treating skin or hair diseases.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Stem cell markers (cytokeratin 15, CD34 and nestin) in primary scarring and nonscarring alopecia
Scarring alopecia affects different hair follicle stem cells than nonscarring alopecia, and the infundibular region could be a new treatment target.
