research Human hair follicle: reservoir function and selective targeting
The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.
research Penetration and distribution of three lipophilic probes in vitro in human skin focusing on the hair follicle
Medium lipophilic substances penetrate skin best, and adding ethanol can increase delivery to hair follicles.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
research To grow or not to grow: Hair morphogenesis and human genetic hair disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research Hyperplasia of Hair Follicles and Other Adnexal Structures in Cutaneous Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Hair follicle hyperplasia is common in both benign and malignant skin lymphoproliferative disorders, with a proposed new term "pseudolymphomatous adnexitis."
research Alopecia: A Pathologist's View
The review concludes that accurate diagnosis of different types of hair loss requires proper biopsy techniques and understanding the hair growth cycle and underlying causes.
research Tamoxifen-Induced Total Alopecia
Tamoxifen can cause total hair loss but its benefits outweigh this side effect.
research Dermatological problems of the puberty
Puberty often causes skin issues like acne and excessive sweating, and treatments require patience as results may vary.
research Bioactive Molecules for Skin Repair and Regeneration: Progress and Perspectives
Bioactive molecules show promise for improving skin repair and regeneration by overcoming current challenges with further research.
research Activity of type 1 5α-reductase is greater in the follicular infrainfundibulum compared with the epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Acne and hirsuties in teenagers
Acne and increased body hair in teenage girls are normal but severe cases may need hormone evaluation and treatment can prevent diabetes linked to PCO.
research Exclusive androgenic effect of dehydroepiandrosterone in sebaceous glands of rat skin
DHEA acts like a male hormone on rat skin glands and doesn't turn into female hormones there.
research Morphogenetic Mechanisms in the Cyclic Regeneration of Hair Follicles and Deer Antlers from Stem Cells
Hair follicles and deer antlers regenerate similarly through stem cells and are influenced by hormones and growth factors.
research Rituximab for Bone Lymphoma
Rituximab effectively treated a woman's bone lymphoma that was resistant to other treatments.
research Use of oral contraceptives in the management of acne
Birth control pills with low-dose estrogen and antiandrogenic progestins can effectively treat acne.
research Treatment of Lipodystrophy with Troglitazone
Troglitazone increases subcutaneous fat in lipodystrophy patients.
research Blinding in Placebo-Controlled Trials
The conclusion is that maintaining blinding in clinical trials is crucial for reliable results.
research The Efficacy of Spiritual Healing
The document concludes that there is no credible evidence that distant healing works, and it should not be further studied in medical literature.
research Staining of human skin with RGB trichrome unveils a proteoglycan-enriched zone in the hair dermal sheath
A new staining method shows a special area in the hair's skin layer with lots of proteoglycans.
research Cellular Plasticity in Cutaneous Wound Healing
Cells can change to help heal wounds better.
research Scalp Sebaceous Physiology
The document concludes that scalp health is influenced by complex factors affecting sebaceous glands, including hormones, aging, and various substances.
research Skin structure
Human skin has multiple layers and functions, with key roles in protection, temperature control, and appearance.
research Gonads
The document concludes that accurate diagnosis of male and female gonadal disorders is crucial for effective treatment and better patient outcomes.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Blinding in Placebo-Controlled Trials
The conclusion suggests that the zinc lozenge study is valid despite imperfect blinding, as many participants could not correctly identify their lozenge type.
research Sebaceous gland abnormalities in fatty acyl CoA reductase 2 (Far2) null mice result in primary cicatricial alopecia
Deleting the Far2 gene in mice causes sebaceous gland issues and patchy hair loss.
research Saliva secretion in engrafted mouse bioengineered salivary glands using taste stimulation
Bioengineered salivary glands in mice can produce saliva when tasting sour or bitter, but have different protein levels and nerve signals compared to natural glands.
research The semiotics of breast cancer: Signs, symptoms, and sales
The paper concludes that breast cancer treatment involves complex interactions between medical symptoms, patient experiences, and commercial influences, requiring a holistic approach.
research The human keratins: biology and pathology
