research Delivery of Tissue-Targeted Scalpels: Opportunities and Challenges for In Vivo CRISPR/Cas-Based Genome Editing
Using CRISPR for gene editing in the body is promising but needs better delivery methods to be more efficient and specific.
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 Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Men with Kennedy disease have a reduced risk of androgenetic alopecia
Men with Kennedy disease have less chance of hair loss.
research Tight Junction barriers in human hair follicles – role of claudin-1
Claudin-1 is important for the barrier function and growth of hair.
research The hair cycle and its regulation
Hormones, nutrition, and seasonal changes regulate hair growth cycles, with androgens extending growth phases and factors like aging and malnutrition affecting hair loss and thinning.
research Dietary supplementation with Essential-oils-cobalt for improving growth performance, meat quality and skin cell capacity of goats
Essential-oils-cobalt improves goat growth and product quality.
research Effect of dihydrotestosterone on the upregulation of inflammatory cytokines in cultured sebocytes
Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.
research Abnormal inner root sheath of the hair follicle in the loose anagen hair syndrome: An ultrastructural study
Loose anagen hair syndrome is caused by structural abnormalities in the hair follicle's inner root sheath.
research Variation in the caprine keratin-associated protein 15-1 (KAP15-1) gene affects cashmere fibre diameter
The KRTAP15-1 gene affects cashmere fiber thickness in goats.
research Reconstructed human skin shows epidermal invagination towards integrated neopapillae indicating early hair follicle formation in vitro
The experiment showed that human skin grown in the lab started to form early hair structures when special cell clusters were added.
research Gata6 promotes hair follicle progenitor cell renewal by genome maintenance during proliferation
Gata6 is important for protecting hair growth cells from DNA damage and keeping normal hair growth.
research The transcriptional landscape of seasonal coat colour moult in the snowshoe hare
Researchers found genes that control hair color and growth change before the visible coat color changes in snowshoe hares.
research L ‐Carnitine–L ‐tartrate promotes human hair growth in vitro
L-Carnitine-L-tartrate may help hair grow and prevent hair loss.
research The Molecular Basis of Androgen Insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome, affecting sexual development.
research Expression of AKT1 along with AKT2 in granulosa-lutein cells of hyperandrogenic PCOS patients
The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.
research Pre-clinical non-viral vectors exploited forin vivoCRISPR/Cas9 gene editing: an overview
Non-viral vectors show promise for safe and effective CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in treating diseases.
research Inhibition of Inflammatory Gene Expression in Keratinocytes Using a Composition Containing Carnitine, Thioctic Acid and Saw Palmetto Extract
The composition with carnitine, thioctic acid, and saw palmetto extract may effectively reduce inflammation in hair follicle cells.
research Automated digital image analysis (TrichoScan®) for human hair growth analysis: Ease versus errors
TrichoScan often makes mistakes and needs improvement for correct hair growth analysis.
research The Steroidogenesis Inhibitor Finasteride Reduces the Response to Both Stressful and Rewarding Stimuli
Finasteride reduces response to stress and rewards, affecting behavior and mental health.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Comparison of the Therapeutic Effect of Allogeneic and Xenogeneic Small Extracellular Vesicles in Soft Tissue Repair
Both human and animal-derived small extracellular vesicles speed up skin healing equally well.
research Association analysis of polymorphisms in six keratin genes with wool traits in sheep
Certain gene mutations are linked to wool quality in sheep and could help in breeding for better wool.
research Pan-cancer analysis of microRNA expression profiles highlights microRNAs enriched in normal body cells as effective suppressors of multiple tumor types: A study based on TCGA database
Certain microRNAs found in normal cells can effectively suppress various cancers.
research Effect of Ficus carica leaf extract on the gene expression of selected factors in HaCaT cells
Ficus carica leaf extract may help treat skin disorders by reducing inflammation and androgen effects in skin cells.
research Enhancing hair follicle regeneration by nonablative fractional laser: Assessment of irradiation parameters and tissue response
Using a fractional laser can stimulate hair growth, but the intensity and duration of inflammation are crucial. Too much can cause ulcers and scarring. Lower beam energy and fewer treatments are recommended to avoid damage.
research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
