research Supplementary Material for: Dexamethasone, a synthetic glucocorticoid, induces the activity of androgen receptor in human dermal papilla cells
Dexamethasone increases androgen receptor activity in scalp cells, which might explain stress-related hair loss.
research Hypaphorine, an indole-3-acetic acid antagonist delivered by the ectomycorrhizal fungus Pisolithus tinctorius , induces reorganisation of actin and the microtubule cytoskeleton in Eucalyptus globulus ssp bicostata root hairs
Hypaphorine from a fungus changes the internal structure of Eucalyptus root hairs, stopping their growth.
research Retinoid-mediated stimulation of steroid sulfatase activity in myeloid leukemic cell lines requires RARα and RXR and involves the phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase pathways
Retinoids increase steroid sulfatase activity in leukemia cells through RARα/RXR and involves certain pathways like phosphoinositide 3-kinase and ERK-MAP kinase.
research Single-Cell RNA Sequencing Reveals Cellular and Transcriptional Changes Associated With M1 Macrophage Polarization in Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Immune cells in Hidradenitis suppurativa become more inflammatory and may be important for treatment targets.
research EFFECTS OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE AND [8-ARGININE]-VASOTOCIN UPON MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH increases melanin production in moulting hair follicles, while AVT inhibits it.
research Forsythiaside A Activates AMP-Activated Protein Kinase and Regulates Oxidative Stress via Nrf2 Signaling
Forsythiaside A helps protect cells and liver from damage by reducing oxidative stress and boosting antioxidants.
research Sensations Evoked by Microstimulation of Single Mechanoreceptive Afferents Innervating the Human Face and Mouth
Microstimulation of certain facial and mouth nerves can evoke specific sensations, while deeper nerves may require multiple stimulations to affect perception.
research Spinal bicuculline produces hypersensitivity of dorsal horn neurons: effects of excitatory amino acid antagonists
Blocking GABA(A) receptors increases neuron sensitivity, showing GABA and glycine have different roles in pain.
research Stem cell activity-coupled suppression of endogenous retrovirus governs adult tissue regeneration
research The innervation of the mystacial pad in the adult rat studied by anterograde transport of HRP conjugates
The mystacial pad's innervation in adult rats is more complex than previously thought.
research Testosterone modulates vasodilation in mesenteric arteries of hypertensive rats
Testosterone affects blood vessel relaxation in hypertensive rats.
research Possible role of autophagy activation in stimulation of regeneration
The document suggests that activating autophagy might help with regeneration by removing old and damaged cells.
research Apparent correlation of activation of type I collagen promotor in hair papilla cells with hair growth
research 502 The stress-responsive secretory protein adrenomedullin 2 potently induces cell cycle arrest and apoptosis in human hair follicles
Adrenomedullin 2 stops cell growth and causes cell death in human hair follicles.
research Rapid Characterization of the Functional and Pharmacological Consequences of Cantú Syndrome KATPChannel Mutations in Intact Cells
Kir6.1 mutations in Cantú syndrome increase channel sensitivity and hyperpolarization, while SUR2B mutations do not.
research The Localization of Dehydrogenase Activity and Sulphydryl Groups in Wool and Hair Follicles by the use of Tetrazolium Salts
INT effectively shows enzyme activity and protein groups in wool and hair follicles.
research Empathic disequilibrium is related to lower levels of hair oxytocin in humans
research 653 Substance P ameliorates epidermal thickness, basal cell density, and asymmetric stem cell self-renewal in skin with decreased sensory innervation
Substance P helps restore skin thickness and cell renewal when sensory nerves are reduced.
research Androgen receptor transactivity is potentiated by TGF-β1 through Smad3 but checked by its coactivator Hic-5/ARA55 in balding dermal papilla cells
TGF-β1 increases androgen receptor activity in hair loss, but Hic-5/ARA55 can counter this effect.
research The human hair follicle has established a fully functional peripheral equivalent of the hypothamalic‐pituitary‐adrenal‐axis (HPA)
Human hair follicles can produce stress hormones like the body's main stress response system.
research Reduced SMAD2/3 activation independently predicts increased depth of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Lower SMAD2/3 activation predicts more severe skin cancer.
research INTERACTION OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE, MELATONIN, CYCLIC AMP AND CYCLIC GMP IN THE CONTROL OF MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH and cyclic AMP boost melanin production, while cyclic GMP and melatonin reduce it.
research Steroidogenic response of adrenal tissues after administration of ACTH to dogs with hypercortisolemia
High adrenal sex hormones in dogs with hypercortisolemia can mislead adrenal hyperplasia diagnosis.
research Alopecia areata – hyperactivity of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis is a myth?
The study found no significant difference in stress hormone levels between people with alopecia areata and healthy individuals, suggesting that the disease is not caused by an overactive stress response system.
research Modulation of Androgen Receptor Transcriptional Activity
Androgen receptor activity is influenced by hormones, co-factors, modifications, and mutations.
