research Hairless triggers reactivation of hair growth by promoting Wnt signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
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 Feather arrays are patterned by interacting signalling and cell density waves
Feather patterns in birds are shaped by signaling interactions and cell movements, with EDA/EDAR crucial for pattern formation.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Stress exposure modulates peptidergic innervation and degranulates mast cells in murine skin
Stress increases nerve fibers and immune cell activity in mouse skin, possibly worsening skin conditions.
research Surface Lipids as Multifunctional Mediators of Skin Responses to Environmental Stimuli
Skin surface lipids are important for skin health and altering them could help prevent aging and treat skin conditions.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Control of pelage hair follicle development and cycling by complex interactions between follistatin and activin
Follistatin helps hair growth and cycling, while activin prevents it.
research Large Scale Gene Expression Profiles of Regenerating Inner Ear Sensory Epithelia
Birds can regenerate inner ear cells using specific gene pathways, unlike mammals.
research Review of Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla cells as in vitro screening model for hair growth
Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
research Male gonadal function in coeliac disease: 2. Sex hormones.
Men with coeliac disease may have hormone imbalances that could affect sexual function, but these can improve with better gut health.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Oestrogen functions in skin and skin appendages
Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.
research Approach to the adult female patient with diffuse nonscarring alopecia
The document concludes that careful evaluation is key to diagnose and treat women with hair loss, with tests for thyroid, iron, and hormones as needed.
research Effect of 5α-Dihydrotestosterone and Testosterone on Apoptosis in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
High levels of testosterone and 5α-DHT can lead to cell death in cells important for hair growth.
research Adverse Reactions to Oral Retinoids An Update
Oral retinoids can cause side effects ranging from mild to severe, including birth defects, and require careful monitoring and contraception.
research 8 Hair follicles and associated glands as androgen targets
Androgens like testosterone affect hair growth and oil production differently across body parts and individuals.
research Safety of testosterone use in women
Short-term testosterone therapy in women seems safe with few mild side effects, but long-term effects need more research.
research The Molecular Mechanism Underlying the Proliferating and Preconditioning Effect of Vitamin C on Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
Vitamin C helps adipose-derived stem cells grow and may support hair growth.
research A primer for studying cell cycle dynamics of the human hair follicle
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle cell cycles is crucial for hair growth and alopecia research, and recommends specific techniques and future research directions.
research Hair growth-promoting effect of Geranium sibiricum extract in human dermal papilla cells and C57BL/6 mice
Geranium sibiricum extract helps hair grow and is more effective than minoxidil but can be toxic in high concentrations.
research Vitamin D receptor polymorphisms and the polycystic ovary syndrome: A systematic review
The review found no clear link between vitamin D receptor gene variations and polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research Assessment of the usefulness of dihydrotestosterone in the diagnostics of patients with androgenetic alopecia
DHT's role in hair loss is important, but measuring its level for diagnosis is questionable.
research Does tissue iron status have a role in female alopecia?
Iron deficiency is not a significant cause of hair loss in women.
