research Asian Hair: A Review of Structures, Properties, and Distinctive Disorders
Asian hair is generally straight and thick, with unique disorders and properties, and more research is needed to understand it fully.
research Establishment of a culture model for the prolonged maintenance of chicken feather follicles structure in vitro
Scientists have developed a method to keep chicken feather follicles alive and structurally intact in a lab for up to a week.
research Stimulation of the Follicular Bulge LGR5+ and LGR6+ Stem Cells with the Gut-Derived Human Alpha Defensin 5 Results in Decreased Bacterial Presence, Enhanced Wound Healing, and Hair Growth from Tissues Devoid of Adnexal Structures
Human alpha defensin 5 helps heal wounds, reduce bacteria, and grow hair on burned skin.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Acne: Hormonal concepts and therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Investigation of drug partition property in artificial sebum
The conclusion is that measuring how drugs partition into artificial sebum is important for predicting their delivery into hair and sebaceous follicles, and it provides better information than traditional methods.
research Dermoscopic Approach to Nonscarring Alopecia
Dermoscopy is useful for identifying and tracking different types of hair loss without scarring.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies novel loci conferring risk of acne vulgaris
New genetic factors linked to acne risk were discovered, highlighting the role of certain pathways and genes.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research Getting under the skin of hair aging: the impact of the hair follicle environment
Aging scalp skin contributes to hair aging and loss, and more research is needed to develop better hair loss treatments.
research Histopathological Study of Epithelial, Melanocytic And Adnexal Tumors Of Skin- A Retrospective Study In A Tertiary Care Centre
Most skin tumors in the study were benign, with squamous cell carcinoma being the most common malignant type.
research Hormonal acne: leading to a paradigm shift in the management of acne
The article concludes that hormonal therapy is an effective long-term acne treatment, even for those without hormonal imbalances.
research Penis Endocrinology
Hormones, especially testosterone and DHT, are key for penis development and function, and testosterone therapy may help with erectile dysfunction in those with low levels.
research Morphogenetic Mechanisms in the Cyclic Regeneration of Hair Follicles and Deer Antlers from Stem Cells
Hair follicles and deer antlers regenerate similarly through stem cells and are influenced by hormones and growth factors.
research Nevus comedonicus in a Malay man: A case report and review of literature
A 25-year-old Malay fireman had skin bumps on his neck that were removed successfully after other treatments failed.
research Regenerating the skin: a task for the heterogeneous stem cell pool and surrounding niche
Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata involves immune response and gene changes affecting hair loss.
research Dermoscopy of pilomatricoma: A case report with a review of the literature
Dermoscopy helps doctors recognize a type of benign skin tumor called pilomatricoma.
research Hair growth promoting effect and action mechanism of Chrysanthemum zawadskii extract

research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research The distributions of type IV collagen .ALPHA. chains in basement membranes of human epidermis and skin appendages
Type IV collagen chains vary in different parts of human skin, with specific patterns linked to melanocytes.
research Short-Chain Fatty Acids from Cutibacterium acnes Activate Both a Canonical and Epigenetic Inflammatory Response in Human Sebocytes
Short-chain fatty acids from *Cutibacterium acnes* cause skin inflammation, contributing to acne.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
