Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Fibroblast Growth Factors Stimulate Hair Growth throughβ-Catenin and Shh Expression in C57BL/6 Mice
Certain growth factors can promote hair growth in mice by activating hair growth-related proteins.
research Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells from Human Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Stem Cells
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells similar to embryonic stem cells.
research STEROIDS AND STEROID-LIKE COMPOUNDS
Athletes use steroids to enhance performance despite health risks and legal issues, and education on their dangers is needed.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Exogenous IGF-1 promotes hair growth by stimulating cell proliferation and down regulating TGF-β1 in C57BL/6 mice in vivo
IGF-1 injections help mice grow more hair by increasing cell growth and blocking a hair growth inhibitor.
research The prostamide‐related glaucoma therapy, bimatoprost, offers a novel approach for treating scalp alopecias
Bimatoprost, a glaucoma medication, may also help treat hair loss.
research Steroidal 5α-reductase and 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17) inhibitors useful in the treatment of prostatic diseases
Certain drugs that block specific enzymes can help treat prostate diseases.
research Prolactin: an emerging force along the cutaneous–endocrine axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Potential of nano-phytochemicals in cervical cancer therapy
Nano-sized plant-based chemicals could improve cervical cancer treatment by being more effective and causing fewer side effects than current methods.
research The inductive effect of ginsenoside F2 on hair growth by altering the WNT signal pathway in telogen mouse skin
Ginsenoside F2 from ginseng may increase hair growth better than standard treatments by affecting cell growth signals.
research Hair loss and herbs for treatment
Herbs can potentially treat hair loss by inhibiting a key enzyme and promoting hair growth, and deficiencies in zinc, biotin, and iron are linked to hair loss.
research Higher PDCD4 expression is associated with obesity, insulin resistance, lipid metabolism disorders, and granulosa cell apoptosis in polycystic ovary syndrome
More PDCD4 is linked to obesity, insulin problems, and cell death in ovaries for those with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Inhibitory activities of Puerariae Flos against testosterone 5α-reductase and its hair growth promotion activities
Puerariae Flos extract may help treat hair loss by blocking a hair loss-related enzyme and promoting hair growth.
research Increased Vibrissa Growth in Transgenic Mice Expressing Insulin-like Growth Factor 1
IGF-1 increases whisker growth in transgenic mice.
research Lack of Collagen VI Promotes Wound-Induced Hair Growth
Mice without collagen VI have slower hair growth normally but faster regrowth after injury.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Re-Evaluating Cyclosporine A as a Hair Growth–Promoting Agent in Human Scalp Hair Follicles
Cyclosporine A promotes hair growth and prolongs the active growth phase in human hair follicles, but may work differently than in rodents.
research Activation of the Human Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid Subtype 1 by Essential Oils
Certain essential oils can activate a human skin receptor, potentially helping with skin disorders.
research Malva verticillataseed extracts upregulate the Wnt pathway in human dermal papilla cells
Malva verticillata seed extract might help treat hair loss by activating hair growth signals in skin cells.
