Hair follicle stem cells are a promising source for tissue repair and treating skin or hair diseases.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Idiopathic Hirsutism*
The document concludes that more research is needed to understand excessive hair growth in women with normal hormone levels and regular ovulation.
research The non-neuronal and nonmuscular effects of botulinum toxin: an opportunity for a deadly molecule to treat disease in the skin and beyond
Botulinum toxin has potential for treating various skin conditions and improving wound healing.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Aging in hair follicle stem cells and niche microenvironment
Aging in hair follicle stem cells leads to hair graying, thinning, and loss.
research Inhibition of Hair Growth by Testosterone in the Presence of Dermal Papilla Cells from the Frontal Bald Scalp of the Postpubertal Stumptailed Macaque1
Testosterone can slow down hair growth when combined with certain cells from bald scalps, and this effect can be blocked by an androgen receptor blocker.
research Nutrition and the deleterious side effects of nutritional supplements
Taking too many vitamin and mineral supplements can cause serious health problems.
research Review of Human Hair Follicle Biology: Dynamics of Niches and Stem Cell Regulation for Possible Therapeutic Hair Stimulation for Plastic Surgeons
Understanding hair follicle biology and stem cell control could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Hair follicular cell/organ culture in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine
Stem cell therapy is a promising approach for hair regrowth despite potential side effects.
research Molecular pathology of skin adnexal tumours
New markers and pathways have been found in skin tumors, helping better understand and diagnose them.
research Discovery of Natural Steroid 5 Alpha-Reductase Inhibitors
Natural herbal compounds might treat certain medical conditions by reducing DHT levels, but more research is needed to confirm their effectiveness and safety.
research Endocrine systems of the skin
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, making hormones that affect skin diseases and respond to stress.
research Transforming growth factor-alpha immunoreactivity during induced hair follicle growth cycles in sheep and ferrets.
TGF-alpha is present in sheep and ferret skin and may affect hair growth without directly stimulating cell proliferation.
research Plant Extracts in Skin Care Products
Plant extracts can benefit skin but must be safe and high-quality.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Vitamin D and Skin: An Review and Update
Vitamin D is important for skin health and can help treat and prevent various skin conditions.
research Major approaches of molecular and physiopathological mechanisms for hormonal treatment of melasma: a systematic review
Estrogens and progesterone are key in regulating melasma pigmentation.
research Morphogenesis- and Hair Cycle-dependent Expression of Trichohyalin, Peptidylarginine Deiminase Type III and Deiminated Trichohyalin in Rat Dorsal Skin Hair Follicles
THH and PAD type III appear together early in hair growth, but deiminated THH appears later, suggesting another factor is involved.
research 879 Molecular network of Smads and Id2 genes in hair follicle stem cells regulation
The BMP/Smads pathway and Id2 gene control hair follicle stem cells, affecting their rest and growth phases.
research 880 Triptolide (TRP), a diterpenoid, shows a strong efficacy and a safe profile in the topical treatment of actinic keratosis lesions in a UV-B-induced mouse model
Triptolide effectively and safely reduces actinic keratosis lesions in mice.
research 883 Hair follicle bulb developed as 3D scaffold free microtissue
Scientists created a tiny, 3D model of a hair follicle that grows and acts like a real one.
research 882 Syndactyly type III and hypotrichosis in oculodentodigital syndrome with GJA1 mutation
A boy with Oculodentodigital syndrome had a unique GJA1 gene mutation causing his symptoms.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
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 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
Hormonal treatments can help with acne, especially in women, by lowering androgen levels or blocking their effects.
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 Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
