research Epidermal abnormalities and increased malignancy of skin tumors in human epidermal keratin 8‐expressing transgenic mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Skin physiology in microgravity: a 3-month stay aboard ISS induces dermal atrophy and affects cutaneous muscle and hair follicles cycling in mice
A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Gender aspects in skin diseases
Men are more likely to get infectious skin diseases, while women are more prone to autoimmune and pigment-related skin conditions, influenced by biological and environmental factors.
research The Human Skin Microbiome in Selected Cutaneous Diseases
Changes in skin microbes play a role in some skin diseases and could lead to new treatments.
research Sex steroid synthesis in human skin in situ: The roles of aromatase and steroidogenic acute regulatory protein in the homeostasis of human skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Macrophages are necessary for skin regeneration during tissue expansion
Macrophages are essential for successful skin growth in reconstructive surgery.
research The effect of menopause on the skin and other connective tissues
Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
research Functional Skin Grafts: Where Biomaterials Meet Stem Cells
Advancements in creating skin grafts with biomaterials and stem cells are promising, but more research is needed for clinical application.
research Skin diseases associated with atopic dermatitis
People with atopic dermatitis are more likely to develop other skin conditions due to shared genetics and immune pathways.
research Skin aging as a mechanical phenomenon: The main weak links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
research Control by a hair’s breadth: the role of microRNAs in the skin
MicroRNAs play a crucial role in skin and hair health, affecting everything from growth to aging, and could potentially be used in treating skin diseases.
research Does prolactin play a role in skin biology and pathology?
Prolactin may be important for skin growth and immune function.
research Health Status, Coping Strategies, and Alexithymia in Subjects with Androgenetic Alopecia
People with hair loss feel more depressed and anxious, especially women, and need help managing emotions and beliefs about their condition.
research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research Contribution of the Hair Follicular Pathway to Total Skin Permeation of Topically Applied and Exposed Chemicals
The hair follicle pathway significantly affects how easily water-loving chemicals pass through the skin.
research Xenobiotica-metabolizing enzymes in the skin of rat, mouse, pig, guinea pig, man, and in human skin models
Different species and human skin models vary in their skin enzyme activities, with pig skin and some models closely matching human skin, useful for safety assessments and understanding the skin's protective roles.
research Semiology of skin toxicity associated with epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) inhibitors
Skin problems like acne, dry skin, and nail and hair changes are common in patients taking EGFR inhibitors.
research Comparative regenerative biology of spiny ( Acomys cahirinus) and laboratory ( Mus musculus) mouse skin
Spiny mice are better at regenerating hair after injury than laboratory mice and could help us understand how to improve human skin repair.
research Endogenous human skin equivalent promotes in vitro morphogenesis of follicle-like structures
Endo-HSE helps grow hair-like structures from human skin cells in the lab.
research Epigenetic control of skin and hair regeneration after wounding
Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.
research Recent advances on skin‐resident stem/progenitor cell functions in skin regeneration, aging and cancers and novel anti‐aging and cancer therapies
New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Follicular Penetration of Caffeine from Topically Applied Nanoemulsion Formulations Containing Penetration Enhancers: In vitro Human Skin Studies
Nanoemulsion creams with certain enhancers can greatly increase caffeine delivery through skin.
research CD98hc (SLC3A2) regulation of skin homeostasis wanes with age
CD98hc's role in skin health decreases with age.
research Nobiletin-loaded composite penetration enhancer vesicles restore the normal miRNA expression and the chief defence antioxidant levels in skin cancer
Nobiletin-loaded vesicles effectively treat skin cancer by restoring normal miRNA and antioxidant levels.
research Prevalence of Hyperandrogenic States in Late Adolescent and Young Women: Epidemiological Survey on Italian High-School Students
Many young Italian women have hyperandrogenic disorders like PCOS, which are linked to age, body weight, and insulin resistance.
research Skin organoids: A new human model for developmental and translational research
Skin organoids are a promising new model for studying human skin development and testing treatments.
research Erbium–Yttrium–Aluminum–Garnet Laser Irradiation Ameliorates Skin Permeation and Follicular Delivery of Antialopecia Drugs
Using a special laser can improve how well hair loss treatments get into the skin and hair follicles.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormones are important for skin health and might help treat skin diseases, but more research is needed to understand their effects fully.
research Advanced therapies of skin injuries
New skin substitutes for treating severe burns and chronic wounds are being developed, but a permanent solution for deep wounds is not yet available commercially.
