research Theoretical investigation of the conformational space of baicalin
The study found that baicalin has different stable shapes in gas and water, with two shapes better for interacting with positive charges in water.
research Isolation and characterization of recombinant murine Wnt3a
Scientists successfully purified a protein called Wnt3a, which is involved in processes like hair growth, but the overall yield was low, suggesting more work is needed to improve this.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in a Taiwanese patient without hairless (HR) gene mutation
A Taiwanese patient had hair loss and skin bumps without the usual gene mutation, suggesting other genetic factors might be involved.
research Regeneration, Wound Healing and Cancer
The document concludes that while some organisms can regenerate body parts, mammals generally cannot, and cancer progression is complex, involving mutations rather than a strict stem cell hierarchy.
research Embryology, Histology, and Physiology of the Hair Follicle
The document explains how hair follicles develop, their structure, and how they grow.
research Application of metal organic frameworks-based functional composite scaffolds in tissue engineering
Metal organic frameworks-based scaffolds show promise for tissue repair due to their unique properties.
research Investigating Alopecia Areata and its Connection to The High-Mobility Group Box 1: Review Article
Alopecia areata causes patchy hair loss and involves immune system disruptions.
research Covid-19 in Lupus Nephritis
Hydroxychloroquine may help COVID-19 patients with lupus.
research Covid-19 in Lupus Nephritis
Patients with lupus nephritis and COVID-19 can improve with proper treatment.
research Histomorphometric study of hair follicle of Assam Hill goat during preruminant, transitional and ruminant age groups
Ruminant goats have larger and more defined hair follicles than younger goats.
research And next… Adnexa: Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
A 55-year-old woman with several health conditions did not see hair regrowth after a transplant.
research Hairy Math: Addition of Wnt-3a to Multiply Bulge Cells
Wnt-3a helps grow more skin stem cells, which could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research From bedside to bench: regulation of host factors in SARS-CoV-2 infection
The conclusion is that certain genetic factors and blood types may affect COVID-19 severity, but changes in ACE2 and TMPRSS2 genes are not clearly linked to it.
research Epidermal homeostasis: a balancing act of stem cells in the skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Deciphering the function of canonical Wnt signals in development and disease: conditional loss- and gain-of-function mutations of β-catenin in mice
Wnt signaling is vital for cell growth, development, and cancer research.
research Tcf3 and Lef1 regulate lineage differentiation of multipotent stem cells in skin
Tcf3 and Lef1 are key in deciding skin stem cell roles.
research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research The pathophysiology of polycystic ovary syndrome
Insulin resistance is a key factor in polycystic ovary syndrome, but genetics may also contribute.
research Neurosteroidogenesis Is Required for the Physiological Response to Stress: Role of Neurosteroid-Sensitive GABAAReceptors
Neurosteroids are crucial for stress response, and targeting specific receptors may help treat certain disorders.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research The 5 Alpha-Reductase Isozyme Family: A Review of Basic Biology and Their Role in Human Diseases
The document concludes that the 5 alpha-reductase enzymes are important in steroid metabolism and related to various human diseases, with inhibitors used to treat conditions like male pattern baldness and prostate issues.
research APCDD1 is a novel Wnt inhibitor mutated in hereditary hypotrichosis simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Sex differences in the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis’ response to stress: an important role for gonadal hormones
Male and female bodies respond differently to stress, influenced by hormones and development stages, with implications for stress-related diseases.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research Noninvasive method for assessing the human circadian clock using hair follicle cells
Scientists found a new, less invasive way to study body clocks using hair cells, which shows shift workers' body clocks don't match their lifestyles.
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.
