30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Graft-versus-host reaction. Cutaneous manifestations following bone marrow transplantation.
Skin changes help detect graft-versus-host reaction early after bone marrow transplants.
research Study of the behaviour of lesional and nonlesional skin of canine recurrent flank alopecia transplanted to athymic nude mice
Dog skin with hair loss, when transplanted to mice, regrew hair, suggesting the hair loss cause is likely body-wide, not skin-specific.
research Acyclovir Can Abort Rejection of Punch Grafts in Herpes-simplex-Induced Lip Leucoderma
Acyclovir can prevent rejection of skin grafts in herpes-related lip leucoderma.
research Viremia and viruria of trichodysplasia spinulosa‐associated polyomavirus before the development of clinical disease in a kidney transplant recipient
The virus linked to a rare disease was found in a patient's blood and urine before skin symptoms appeared.
research Successful follicular unit extraction hair transplant for bald area after skin graft
Hair transplant was successful on a bald area after skin graft surgery.
research Superiority of occipital donor sites for split‐thickness skin grafting in dermatosurgery: Results of a prospective randomized controlled study
Occipital donor sites for skin grafts heal faster, hurt less, look better, and have fewer complications than femoral sites.
research Autologous Mini Punch Graft in Vitiligo: A Narrative Review
Autologous mini-punch grafting can effectively repigment stable vitiligo, but has some risks and limitations.
research Gender differences in skin: A review of the literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Nonmalignant late cutaneous changes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant in children
Skin changes like hair loss, white patches, and nail changes are common in children after bone marrow transplants, often linked to chronic rejection.
research Threading Through Time: Hair Sutures in Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery
Hair sutures are effective, eco-friendly, and cost-efficient for surgery.
research Advances in genetic and molecular understanding of Omenn syndrome - implications for the future
Newborn screening and gene therapy are expected to improve outcomes for Omenn syndrome patients.
research Pathogenesis of graft-versus-host-disease
Graft-versus-host disease occurs when donor immune cells attack the recipient's body, causing skin, gut, and liver damage.
research Exosomes for repair, regeneration and rejuvenation
Exosomes could potentially enhance tissue repair and regeneration with lower rejection risk and easier production than live cell therapies.
research 415 IL-17C: Checkpoint in innate skin immunology
IL-17C is important in inflammatory skin diseases and could be a target for treatment.
research The Sex-Linked Histocompatibility Antigens
Male-to-female skin grafts in mice are rejected due to sex-linked antigens.
research Polyomavirus Associated Trichodysplasia Spinulosa in a Pediatric Kidney Transplant Recipient
A rare skin infection in a 10-year-old kidney transplant patient was successfully managed by adjusting medication.
research Minoxidil in Severe Hypertension
Minoxidil lowers blood pressure and causes hair growth, with some side effects.
research THE BIRTH OF TRANSPLANTATION IMMUNOLOGY: THE BILLINGHAM—MEDAWAR EXPERIMENTS AT BIRMINGHAM UNIVERSITY AND UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LONDON
Billingham and Medawar's work laid the foundation for modern transplantation by showing how to prevent graft rejection.
research The successful treatment of nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy (NFD) with mycophenolate mofetil (MMF)
Mycophenolate mofetil improved skin condition in a man with nephrogenic fibrosing dermopathy.
research Cellular activation pathways and interaction networks in vascularized composite allotransplantation
Understanding cellular interactions in VCA may lead to better treatments and reduce rejection.
research Oxidative Activity of the Type 2 Isozyme of 17β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase (17β-HSD) Predominates in Human Sebaceous Glands
The enzyme 17β-HSD type 2 mainly performs oxidation in human sebaceous glands, which may help protect against acne.
research Acute Hair Loss 3 Years after Bone Marrow Transplant
A woman's sudden hair loss three years after a bone marrow transplant was a sign of chronic graft-versus-host disease but improved with treatment.
research Skin Graft
Skin grafting is a key procedure for repairing skin defects, with the success depending on the right graft choice, donor site management, and aftercare.
research Experimental Induction of Alopecia Areata-Like Hair Loss in C3H/HeJ Mice Using Full-Thickness Skin Grafts
Skin grafts on mice can cause an immune response leading to hair loss, useful for studying human hair loss conditions.
research Analysis of skin graft survival using green fluorescent protein transgenic mice
GFP transgenic mice help study cell origins in skin grafts.
