450-480 / 1000+ resultsresearch The first 20 years of skin of color dermatology: An era of advancements in skin, hair, and nail disorders
Significant progress has been made in treating skin, hair, and nail disorders in people with skin of color, but disparities still exist.
research Skin fibroblast functional heterogeneity in health and disease
Different types of skin fibroblasts have unique roles in skin health and disease.
research Fibroblast Lineage Switching as the Developmental Origin of Scarring and Target for Regenerative Healing
Reprogramming adult fibroblasts may enable scar-free healing.
research Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interaction in Hair Regeneration and Skin Wound Healing
Hair and skin healing involve complex cell interactions controlled by specific molecules and pathways, and hair follicle cells can help repair skin wounds.
research Apocrine sweat gland obstruction by antiperspirants allowing transdermal absorption of cutaneous generated hormones and pheromones as a link to the observed incidence rates of breast and prostate cancer in the 20th century
The document suggests that blocking sweat glands with antiperspirants might allow skin-generated hormones to be absorbed, possibly increasing breast and prostate cancer risk.
research Differentiation of Mouse Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells into a Multipotent Keratinocyte Lineage
Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.
research Involvement of ILC1-like innate lymphocytes in human autoimmunity, lessons from alopecia areata
ILC1-like cells can cause alopecia areata by attacking hair follicles.
research Auswirkungen einer Hormonersatztherapie mit Testosteron auf Haut, Haare und Anhangsgebilde
Testosterone therapy can improve skin and hair in men with low testosterone but may cause skin irritation with certain treatments.
research Cutaneous Retinoic Acid Levels Determine Hair Follicle Development and Downgrowth
The right amount of retinoic acid is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co- option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Keratin-associated proteins have ancient origins and were used for different purposes before being adapted for hair in mammals.
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.
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 Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Gap junctions in Turing-type periodic feather pattern formation
Gap junctions help control feather pattern formation in chickens.
research Organoids in skin wound healing
Skin organoids help improve wound healing and tissue repair.
research The Endocrine Function of the Skin: An Analytical Narrative
The skin acts like an endocrine organ, producing hormones that affect various body functions and skin health, and understanding this can lead to new treatments.
research Uncombable hair syndrome and beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Hoxc13/β-catenin Correlation with Hair Follicle Activity in Cashmere Goat
Hoxc13 is linked to seasonal hair growth in Cashmere goats and is affected by melatonin.
research Methods for quantifying intrafollicular drug delivery: a critical appraisal
The document concludes that there is no agreed-upon best method for measuring drug delivery within hair follicles and more research is needed to validate current techniques.
research Cutaneous Scarring: Basic Science, Current Treatments, and Future Directions
New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
