research Pregnancy in postpartum estrus induces inflammatory milk production and catagen specific pup skin inflammation in interleukin-10 deficient mice
Pregnancy right after giving birth in mice lacking IL-10 causes milk that leads to liver issues and hair loss in their babies.
research Single dose gamma irradiation induced angiogenesis in rat skin hair follicles
Gamma irradiation can stimulate hair growth by promoting new blood vessel formation.
research Diversity of Adult Stem Cell Niches in the Dermal Compartment of Skin
The skin's dermal layer contains true stem cells with diverse functions and interactions that need more research to fully understand.
research Positive Impact of Fish Oil on Diabetic and Hypercholestrolemic Skin Disorders
Fish oil improves skin health in people with diabetes and high cholesterol.
research Woolly Antics between the Sheaths
Lipase H is important for hair follicle function and shaping hair fibers.
research A multi-omic single-cell landscape of perinatal mouse skin maps lineage specification and reveals shared dynamics in human fetal skin
Mouse and human skin development share similar fibroblast timelines.
research Hair Strengthening Evaluation of Anisotropic Osmolite Solutions (Inositol + Arginine): Cross-Talk between Dermal Papilla Fibroblast and Keratinocytes of the Outer Root Sheath Using a µHair Follicle 3D Model
Inositol and arginine solutions improve hair follicle health and turnover.
research 1424 Mapping the establishment of fibroblast heterogeneity during skin development and wound repair
Skin heals with scars because only one type of fibroblast is used, not a mix.
research Congenital and Hereditary Skin Diseases
Bovines can have rare inherited skin diseases with specific symptoms like hair loss, fragile skin, and abnormal porphyrin buildup.
research 864 Catalytic-dependent and -independent activities of Polycomb repressive complex 1 differentially regulate skin stem cell specification
PRC1 influences skin stem cell development by both turning genes on and off, affecting hair growth and skin cell types.
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 Scratching the surface of skin development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Wnt Signaling in Skin Development, Homeostasis, and Disease
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin development and health, and its disruption can cause skin diseases.
research Apoptosis in human skin development: Morphogenesis, periderm, and stem cells
Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.
research Melatonin in the skin: synthesis, metabolism and functions
Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.
research Melanocyte stem cells: a melanocyte reservoir in hair follicles for hair and skin pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Stem Cells in Skin Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Their Clinical Applications
Stem cells are crucial for skin repair and new treatments for chronic wounds.
research On the Role of Melatonin in Skin Physiology and Pathology
Melatonin is important for skin health and protection, and can be made by the skin or applied to it.
research More than one way to skin . . .
Skin stem cells help repair damage and maintain healthy skin.
research Noggin is required for induction of the hair follicle growth phase in postnatal skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research Skin and hair on-a-chip: in vitro skin models versus ex vivo tissue maintenance with dynamic perfusion
The Multi-Organ-Chip improves the growth and quality of skin and hair in the lab, potentially replacing animal testing.
research Cultured Peribulbar Dermal Sheath Cells Can Induce Hair Follicle Development and Contribute to the Dermal Sheath and Dermal Papilla
Certain cells from hair follicles can create new hair and contribute to hair growth when implanted in mice.
research Organogenesis From Dissociated Cells: Generation of Mature Cycling Hair Follicles From Skin-Derived Cells
Scientists have found a way to create hair follicles from skin cells of newborn mice, which can grow and cycle naturally when injected into adult mouse skin.
research Bioengineering skin using mechanisms of regeneration and repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Toxic Side Effects of Targeted Therapies and Immunotherapies Affecting the Skin, Oral Mucosa, Hair, and Nails
Cancer treatments targeting specific cells and the immune system can cause skin, mouth, hair, and nail problems, affecting patients' quality of life and treatment adherence.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research The role of tight junctions in skin barrier function and dermal absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
