research Alopecia Areata
Different treatments for alopecia areata have varying success rates and side effects; intralesional steroids are most effective.
research Generation and characterization of rat liver stem cell lines and their engraftment in a rat model of liver failure
Researchers created rat liver stem cells that could help repair liver failure in rats and may be useful for studying human liver diseases.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Hair follicle and interfollicular epidermal stem cells make varying contributions to wound regeneration
Different skin stem cells help heal wounds, with hair follicle cells becoming more important over time.
research Chrousos syndrome: from molecular pathogenesis to therapeutic management
The review suggests thorough evaluation and genetic testing for proper diagnosis and treatment of Chrousos syndrome.
research Dietary supplement increases anagen hair rate in women with telogen effluvium: results of a double-blind, placebo-controlled trial
The dietary supplement helped increase hair growth in women with hair loss.
research Principles and mechanisms of regeneration in the mouse model for wound‐induced hair follicle neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research TGF‐β2 is specifically expressed in human dermal papilla cells and modulates hair folliculogenesis
TGF-β2 plays a key role in human hair growth and development.
research Mutations in the Keratin 85 (KRT85/hHb5) Gene Underlie Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia
Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.
research Trypanocidal Effect of Isotretinoin through the Inhibition of Polyamine and Amino Acid Transporters in Trypanosoma cruzi
Isotretinoin shows promise as a treatment for Chagas disease by effectively inhibiting key transporters in the parasite.
research The regeneration blastema of lizards: an amniote model for the study of appendage replacement
Lizards can regrow their tails, and studying this process helps understand scar-free healing and limb regeneration.
research Combination of herbal extracts and platelet-rich plasma induced dermal papilla cell proliferation: involvement of ERK and Akt pathways
Herbal extracts and platelet-rich plasma together may help increase hair growth by making certain cells grow more, through specific cell growth pathways.
research A cell-based system for screening hair growth-promoting agents
Apigenin may help promote hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research Effect of topical application of raspberry ketone on dermal production of insulin-like growth factor-I in mice and on hair growth and skin elasticity in humans
Raspberry ketone may help grow hair and improve skin elasticity.
research Comprehensive molecular and cellular studies suggest avian scutate scales are secondarily derived from feathers, and more distant from reptilian scales
Bird scales evolved from feathers, not reptile scales.
research Positive lymphocyte transformation test in a patient with allergic contact dermatitis of the scalp after short-term use of topical minoxidil solution
Patient had scalp allergy from minoxidil; test helped identify cause and suggest alternative treatments.
research Treatment of male rats with finasteride, an inhibitor of 5alpha-reductase enzyme, induces long-lasting effects on depressive-like behavior, hippocampal neurogenesis, neuroinflammation and gut microbiota composition
Finasteride treatment in male rats causes long-lasting effects on depression-like behavior, brain cell growth, inflammation, and gut bacteria composition.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Two Hypomorphic Alleles of Mouse Ass1 as a New Animal Model of Citrullinemia Type I and Other Hyperammonemic Syndromes
Researchers created a new mouse model for studying Citrullinemia Type I and similar conditions, showing symptoms and treatment responses like those in humans.
research Glutamate transporter Slc1a3 mediates inter‐niche stem cell activation during skin growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth in Vivoa
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Stem cells and alopecia: a review of pathogenesis
Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
research Minoxidil Stimulates Elastin Expression in Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
