PDGF signaling is crucial for maintaining and renewing hair follicle stem cells, which could help treat hair loss.
research A review of adipocyte lineage cells and dermal papilla cells in hair follicle regeneration
Cell-based therapies using dermal papilla cells and adipocyte lineage cells show potential for hair regeneration.
research CD98hc (SLC3A2) regulation of skin homeostasis wanes with age
CD98hc's role in skin health decreases with age.
research Transcriptome and proteome characterization of surface ectoderm cells differentiated from human iPSCs
Blocking TGFβ-RI signaling enhances surface ectoderm differentiation from human stem cells.
research Alefacept for Alopecia Areata
Alefacept showed some effectiveness for alopecia areata but needs more research.
research Oncogenic senescence: a multi-functional perspective
Cellular senescence has both cancer-blocking and cancer-promoting effects, and targeting senescent cells may improve health and lifespan.
research The Basic Science of Hair Biology
Hair disorders are caused by a complex mix of biology, genetics, hormones, and environmental factors, affecting hair growth and leading to conditions like alopecia.
research Restoration of hair growth in mice with an alopecia areata-like disease using topical anthralin
Topical anthralin helped regrow hair in mice with a condition similar to human alopecia.
research Pre-Clinical Cell-Based Therapy for Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency
Cell-based therapies show promise for treating Limbal Stem Cell Deficiency but need more research.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research An N-Ethyl-N-Nitrosourea Induced Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone Promoter Mutation Provides a Mouse Model for Endogenous Glucocorticoid Excess
Researchers created a mouse model for Cushing's syndrome to study glucocorticoid excess and potential treatments.
research Expression and function of nuclear receptor co-activator 4: evidence of a potential role independent of co-activator activity
NcoA4 may have roles beyond helping control gene activity, possibly affecting cell behavior and stability.
research Esrp1-Regulated Splicing of Arhgef11 Isoforms Is Required for Epithelial Tight Junction Integrity
The study concluded that specific proteins are necessary to maintain the structure that holds epithelial cells tightly together.
research Distinct mechanisms underlie pattern formation in the skin and skin appendages
Different processes create patterns in skin and things like hair and feathers.
research Hair growth effect of minoxidil
Minoxidil helps hair grow by improving blood flow and increasing growth factors in hair follicles.
research Friends Turned Foes: Angiogenic Growth Factors beyond Angiogenesis
Some growth factors, while important for normal body functions, can cause diseases when not regulated properly.
research Multi‐tasking epidermal stem cells: Beyond epidermal maintenance
Epidermal stem cells have various roles in skin beyond just maintenance, including forming specialized structures and aiding in skin repair and regeneration.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge do not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration after Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Cicatricial Alopecia Research Foundation meeting, May 2016: Progress towards the diagnosis, treatment and cure of primary cicatricial alopecias
The meeting focused on understanding, diagnosing, and finding treatments for irreversible hair loss diseases.
research Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for investigating murine telogen skin after spontaneous or depilation-induced hair growth
EPR spectroscopy showed that spontaneous hair growth results in thicker skin and less pigmented hair than depilation-induced growth.
research Insights into the role of the Wnt signaling pathway in the regeneration of animal model systems
The Wnt signaling pathway is crucial for regeneration and could help advance human medicine.
research Dihydrotestosterone induces p27 degradation via direct binding with SKP2 in ovarian and breast cancer
Dihydrotestosterone causes p27 protein breakdown in ovarian and breast cancer cells by binding with SKP2.
research From gene to therapy in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: Are we there yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
