New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research Syphilis: A great imitator
Syphilis has a wide range of symptoms that can look like other diseases, and if not treated, it can progress to a more serious stage, especially in HIV-positive patients.
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 Tinea capitis mimicking dissecting cellulitis of the scalp: a histopathologic pitfall when evaluating alopecia in the post‐pubertal patient
A fungal infection can look like a different scalp condition in teens, leading to wrong treatment until proper tests are done.
research Inherited epidermolysis bullosa: clinical and therapeutic aspects
The document concludes that inherited epidermolysis bullosa is a challenging genetic condition requiring multidisciplinary care and new treatments.
research Smad1 and 5 but Not Smad8 Establish Stem Cell Quiescence Which Is Critical to Transform the Premature Hair Follicle During Morphogenesis Toward the Postnatal State
Smad1 and Smad5 are essential for hair follicle development and stem cell sleepiness.
research An Ovol2‐Zeb1 transcriptional circuit regulates epithelial directional migration and proliferation
The Ovol2-Zeb1 circuit is crucial for skin healing and hair growth by guiding cell movement and growth.
research Dormancy in the stem cell niche
Some stem cells in the body rarely divide, which could help create better treatments for diseases and aging.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
Understanding glycans and enzymes that alter them is key to controlling hair growth.
research Pre-Clinical Cell-Based Therapy for Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency
Cell-based therapies show promise for treating Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency but need more research.
research Differential expression of stem cell markers in human follicular bulge and interfollicular epidermal compartments
Different markers are found in stem cells of the scalp's hair follicle bulge and the surrounding skin.
research Historical aspects of dermatomycoses
Doctors have known about fungal skin infections for a long time, but only made major progress in understanding and treating them since the mid-1800s.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Oleic Acid Nanovesicles of Minoxidil for Enhanced Follicular Delivery
Oleic acid nanovesicles improve minoxidil absorption in hair follicles for alopecia treatment.

research Prevalence and Extrinsic Risk Factors for Dental Erosion in Adolescents
Dental erosion is common in adolescents and is linked to diet and higher socioeconomic status.
research Hair removal using a long-pulsed alexandrite laser.
The long-pulsed alexandrite laser is effective for hair reduction, particularly for light-skinned individuals with dark hair, but caution is needed for darker skin.
research Targeted delivery of a poorly water-soluble compound to hair follicles using polymeric nanoparticle suspensions
Nanoparticles effectively deliver water-insoluble drugs to hair follicles, stimulating hair growth without irritating the skin.
