research A family business: stem cell progeny join the niche to regulate homeostasis
Stem cell offspring help control their parent stem cells, affecting tissue health, healing, and cancer.
research Transforming growth factor-β in stem cells and tissue homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
research A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology
Capsaicin, found in chili peppers, can slow down hair growth by affecting skin cells and hair follicles.
research Enhanced Effect of Platelet-Rich Plasma Containing a New Carrier on Hair Growth
Platelet-rich plasma with a new carrier significantly increases hair thickness without serious side effects.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Early inductive events in ectodermal appendage morphogenesis
Early development of hair, teeth, and glands involves specific signaling pathways and cellular interactions.
research Pharmacologic inhibition of JAK-STAT signaling promotes hair growth
Blocking JAK-STAT signaling can lead to hair growth.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Hierarchical patterning modes orchestrate hair follicle morphogenesis
Hair follicle patterns form through a mix of self-organization and signaling interactions.
research Human skin stem cells and the ageing process
Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.
research Linking diet to acne metabolomics, inflammation, and comedogenesis: an update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research TGF-β family signaling in stem cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
research Macrophages Regulate Schwann Cell Maturation after Nerve Injury
Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Dermal Adipocyte Lipolysis and Myofibroblast Conversion Are Required for Efficient Skin Repair
Fat cells in the skin help start healing and form important repair cells after injury.
research Resting no more: re‐defining telogen, the maintenance stage of the hair growth cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Epidermal β-catenin activation remodels the dermis via paracrine signalling to distinct fibroblast lineages
Epidermal β-catenin activation changes the dermis by signaling different fibroblast types.
research Genetic basis of skin appendage development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Overexpression of Smad7 results in severe pathological alterations in multiple epithelial tissues
Too much Smad7 can cause serious changes in skin tissues, including problems with hair growth, thymus shrinkage, and eye development issues.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Turing patterns in development: what about the horse part?
Turing patterns are now recognized as important in developmental biology.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: annotated tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Molecular signaling in feather morphogenesis
Feather growth and regeneration involve complex patterns, stem cells, and evolutionary insights.
research Olfactory receptor OR2AT4 regulates human hair growth
A certain smell receptor in hair follicles can affect hair growth when activated by a synthetic sandalwood scent.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial–Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research KGF and EGF signalling block hair follicle induction and promote interfollicular epidermal fate in developing mouse skin
EGF and KGF signalling prevent hair follicle formation and promote skin cell development in mice.
research Review of Hair Follicle Dermal Papilla cells as in vitro screening model for hair growth
Dermal Papilla cells are a promising tool for evaluating hair growth treatments.
