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 Cartilage to bone transformation during fracture healing is coordinated by the invading vasculature and induction of the core pluripotency genes
Blood vessels and specific genes help turn cartilage into bone when bones heal.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research Identifying the Target Cells and Mechanisms of Merkel Cell Polyomavirus Infection
Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.
research Principles of Hair Cycle Control
Manipulating the catagen and telogen phases of hair growth could lead to treatments for hair disorders.
research 9 Role of 5α-reductase in health and disease
5α-reductase is essential for male sexual development and its inhibitors have potential in treating various conditions related to hormone action.
research A Comprehensive Pathophysiology of Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis – Towards a More Precise Definition of Scalp Health
The document concludes that dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis are linked to inflammation and skin changes, and treating them with specific shampoos can reduce these issues.
research Biocomposite nanofiber matrices to support ECM remodeling by human dermal progenitors and enhanced wound closure
The nanofiber scaffolds improved skin wound healing by supporting cell growth and tissue repair.
research Extracellular vesicle-based drug overview: research landscape, quality control and nonclinical evaluation strategies
Extracellular vesicles show promise for treating diseases but face challenges in development and regulation.
research Expression patterns of three estrogen receptor genes during zebrafish (Danio rerio) development: evidence for high expression in neuromasts
The three estrogen receptor genes are highly expressed in zebrafish neuromasts during development.
research Critical Analysis on Characterization, Systemic Effect, and Therapeutic Potential of Beta-Sitosterol: A Plant-Derived Orphan Phytosterol
Beta-sitosterol has potential health benefits but needs more research to fully understand its effects and improve its use in treatments.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Air Pollution, Autophagy, and Skin Aging: Impact of Particulate Matter (PM10) on Human Dermal Fibroblasts
Air pollution (PM10) increases skin inflammation and aging by reducing collagen and may trigger a repair response in skin cells.
research The control of hair growth: An overview
Hair growth is influenced by interactions between skin layers, growth factors, and hormones, but the exact mechanisms are not fully understood.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Mutant laboratory mice with abnormalities in hair follicle morphogenesis, cycling, and/or structure: An update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone (TRH) Promotes Wound Re-Epithelialisation in Frog and Human Skin
Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone helps heal wounds in frog and human skin.
research A Practical Guide to Scalp Disorders
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of common scalp disorders are important for both physical and psychological health.
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 5α-Reductase inhibitors in androgenetic alopecia
Finasteride and dutasteride effectively treat hair loss in men and women, but may cause side effects like low libido and depression.
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 Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research Biological characterization of cultured dermal papilla cells and hair follicle regeneration in vitro and in vivo
Cultured dermal papilla cells can regenerate hair follicles and sustain hair growth.
research Hyperadrenocorticism (Hyperadrenocorticoidism, Hyperadrenocorticalism, Cushing’s Disease, Cushing’s Syndrome)
Treatment can improve survival and symptoms in dogs with Cushing's disease, but outcomes are unpredictable.
research Vesicles: Potential nano carriers for the delivery of skin cosmetics
Vesicular carriers like liposomes may improve cosmetic skin treatment delivery and effectiveness but need more human research.
research Expression patterns of the glial cell line–derived neurotrophic factor, neurturin, their cognate receptors GFRα-1, GFRα-2, and a common signal transduction element c-Ret in the human skin hair follicles
Certain proteins and their receptors are more active during the growth phase of human hair and could be targeted to treat hair disorders.
research Hair and nail involvement in lupus erythematosus
Lupus can cause hair loss and nail changes, with treatments available for both.
research Hair follicles and their role in skin health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
