research Hair growth-modulation by adrenergic drugs
Certain drugs can cause early hair growth in mice by affecting the nerves.
research Different Requirements for GFRα2-Signaling in Three Populations of Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
GFRα2 is essential for controlling neuron size but not for target innervation in certain sensory neurons.
research Antisense oligonucleotide targeting fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR)-1 stimulates cellular activity of hair follicles in anin vitroorgan culture system
Targeting FGFR-1 with antisense oligonucleotides may help treat baldness by increasing hair follicle activity.
research Nociceptive and Nonnociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its “Druggability”
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.

Drug approvals slowed in 2Q22, but notable drugs like Amvuttra, Camzyos, and Olumiant were approved.
research Genomic and transcriptomic landscape to decipher the genetic basis of hyperpigmentation in Lanping black-boned sheep (Ovis aries)
Two genes, ERBB4 and ROR1, may cause the unique pigmentation in Lanping black-boned sheep.
research SKPs Derive from Hair Follicle Precursors and Exhibit Properties of Adult Dermal Stem Cells
SKPs are similar to adult skin stem cells and could help in skin repair and hair growth.
research Melanocyte stem cells: a melanocyte reservoir in hair follicles for hair and skin pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Antioxidants in dermatology
Antioxidants can benefit skin health but should be used carefully to avoid negative effects.
research PAK4 signaling in health and disease: defining the PAK4–CREB axis
PAK4 is crucial in cancer progression, brain development, and could be a therapeutic target, especially through the PAK4-CREB axis.
research CCN2 modulates hair follicle cycling in mice
The protein CCN2 controls hair growth by affecting hair follicle formation and stem cell activity in mice.
research Hormonal regulation in male androgenetic alopecia—Sex hormones and beyond: Evidence from recent genetic studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research The nutritional biochemistry of wool and hair follicles
Nutrients like vitamins, copper, zinc, and amino acids are crucial for healthy hair and wool growth.
research Immunohistopathological analysis of frizzled-4-positive immature melanocytes from hair follicles of patients with Rhododenol-induced leukoderma
Rhododendrol in skin-whitening products can cause skin depigmentation and immune reactions.
research Genetic determinants of skin ageing: a systematic review and meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and candidate genes
Certain genes are linked to skin aging, like wrinkles and pigmentation changes.
research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Role of Metformin in Acanthosis Nigricans
Metformin may improve acanthosis nigricans by reducing insulin resistance.
research Common Topical Medications
