research Proliferation, but Not Apoptosis, Is Associated with Distinct β-Catenin Expression Patterns in Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinomas
Distinct β-catenin patterns are linked to cell growth, not cell death, in lung cancer.
research Barley disease susceptibility factor RACB acts in epidermal cell polarity and positioning of the nucleus
RACB in barley is crucial for cell polarity and nucleus positioning, aiding fungal infection.
research Novel cosmeceuticals from plants—An industry guided review
Plant-based ingredients are effective and safe for modern skincare products.
research Modern drug delivery strategies applied to natural active compounds
New drug delivery methods can make natural compounds more effective and stable.
research Polarity signaling ensures epidermal homeostasis by coupling cellular mechanics and genomic integrity
Par3 protein is essential for skin cell balance and stability.
research Eccrine sweat glands associate with the human hair follicle within a defined compartment of dermal white adipose tissue
Sweat glands and hair follicles are structurally connected within a specific layer of skin fat.
research Dietary glucoraphanin prevents the onset of psychosis in the adult offspring after maternal immune activation
Eating glucoraphanin can help prevent psychosis in offspring whose mothers had immune system activation.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research The bright side of fibroblasts: molecular signature and regenerative cues in major organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane has specialized structures and molecules for different tissue interactions, important for hair growth and attachment.
research The Mesenchymal Niche of the Hair Follicle Induces Regeneration by Releasing Primed Progenitors from Inhibitory Effects of Quiescent Stem Cells
The study found that a specific area of the hair follicle helps start hair growth by reducing the blocking effects on certain cells and controlling growth signals.
research CD98hc (SLC3A2) regulation of skin homeostasis wanes with age
CD98hc's role in skin health decreases with age.
research Metformin influence on hormone levels at birth, in PCOS mothers and their newborns
Metformin taken during pregnancy increases SHBG in newborns but doesn't change other hormone levels in mothers or babies.
research Exogen hair characterization in human scalp
The conclusion is that exogen is a unique hair cycle phase and the new sampling method specifically targets this stage, which may help in future hair loss research.
research Glutamate transporter Slc1a3 mediates inter‐niche stem cell activation during skin growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
Blocking TGFβ-RI signaling enhances surface ectoderm differentiation from human stem cells.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research The development of several organs and appendages is impaired in mice lacking Sp6
Mice without the Sp6 gene have problems developing several body parts, including hair, teeth, limbs, and lungs.
research Melatonin promotes Cashmere goat (Capra hircus) secondary hair follicle growth: a view from integrated analysis of long non-coding and coding RNAs
Melatonin helps Cashmere goats grow more hair by affecting certain genes and cell pathways.
research Negative Impact of Testosterone Deficiency and 5α-Reductase Inhibitors Therapy on Metabolic and Sexual Function in Men
Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.
research Thyroxine Differentially Modulates the Peripheral Clock: Lessons from the Human Hair Follicle
Thyroxine can adjust the body's peripheral clock, potentially helping treat clock-related diseases.
research Unilateral Gynecomastia Induced by Treatment With 1 mg of Oral Finasteride
Finasteride can cause one-sided breast enlargement, which disappears after stopping the drug.
research Hair Loss in Children
Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.
research Mechanism of TAp73 inhibition by ΔNp63 and structural basis of p63/p73 hetero-tetramerization
ΔNp63α stops TAp73β from working in skin cancer by blocking its access to specific genes, not by directly interacting with it.
research The Cross-section Trichometer: A New Device for Measuring Hair Quantity, Hair Loss, and Hair Growth
The Cross-section Trichometer is a new tool that can measure hair quantity and detect hair loss and growth.
research Sarcoptic mange outbreak decimates South American wild camelid populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina
Sarcoptic mange nearly wiped out vicuñas and guanacos in an Argentine park.
research Phosphatidylinositol‐specific phospholipase C2 functions in auxin‐modulated root development
A protein called PLC2 is important for the growth and development of plant roots influenced by auxin.
research Canine noninflammatory alopecia: a comprehensive evaluation of common and distinguishing histological characteristics
Different types of dog hair loss are linked to problems starting the hair growth phase and early hair cycle ending.
