Research
150-180 / 1000+ results research Vitamin D and the Skin: An Update for Dermatologists
Adequate vitamin D is crucial for skin health and should be considered in dermatology.
research Effects of ultra violet radiation on the soluble proteins of human hair
UV radiation increases protein loss from hair and reduces hair protein quality.
research The melanocyte photosensory system in the human skin
Human skin's melanocytes respond to light by changing shape, producing pigments and hormones, which may affect sleep patterns.
research Repigmentation by combined narrow‑band ultraviolet B/adipose‑derived stem cell transplantation in the mouse model: Role of Nrf2/HO‑1‑mediated Ca2+ homeostasis
Combining narrow-band ultraviolet B light and stem cell transplantation helps repigmentation in vitiligo by maintaining calcium balance in mice.
research Ectoin attenuates cortisone‐induced skin issues by suppression GR signaling and the UVB ‐induced overexpression of 11β‐HSD1
Ectoin helps prevent cortisone-induced skin problems and supports skin health.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research The Case Files
The man's skin condition improved with sun protection and topical steroids, but UV exposure still caused flare-ups.
research Clinical Snippets
Increased pigmentation may protect skin from UVB, new targets for skin disease treatments were identified, sunscreen ingredients don't affect hormones, TNF-α inhibitors may help diabetic wounds, and certain treatments could prevent chemotherapy-induced hair loss.
research What’s new in the treatment of vitiligo
New treatments for vitiligo show promise but still face challenges, especially for hands and feet.
research An unexpected role for keratin 10 end domains in susceptibility to skin cancer
Keratin 10 end domains may increase skin cancer risk by reducing cell death.
research Photodegradation of human hair: a microscopy study
UV radiation significantly damages hair, especially with humidity, making it more vulnerable to further damage.
research Preparation and in vitro evaluation of protective effects of Silibinin‐loaded polymeric micelles on human hair against UV‐B radiation
Silibinin-loaded micelles significantly protect hair from UV-B damage.
research Ginseng in Hair Growth and Viability
Ginseng, especially its component ginsenosides, can promote hair growth, reduce hair loss, and potentially treat conditions like alopecia by affecting cell pathways and cytokines.
research Phototherapy in Childhood
Phototherapy is effective and well-tolerated for treating childhood psoriasis and pityriasis lichenoides chronica.
research The Photoprotective Effect of S-Methylmethionine Sulfonium in Skin
S-Methylmethionine sulfonium can protect skin from UVB damage.
research Anti-wrinkle effect of bone morphogenetic protein receptor 1a-extracellular domain (BMPR1a-ECD)
BMPR1a-ECD reduces wrinkles much more effectively than retinoic acid.
research Keratinocyte Stem Cells: Role in Aging
Aging reduces skin stem cell function, leading to changes like hair loss and slower wound healing.
research Azelaic acid stimulates catalase activation and promotes hair growth through upregulation of Gli1 and Gli2 mRNA and Shh protein.
Azelaic acid helps protect hair cells from UV damage and encourages hair growth by increasing certain gene expressions and proteins.
research Clinical Snippets
A hormone affects hair growth, certain molecules may prevent skin damage, a skin disease is linked to immune cells, glycerol helps skin hydration, and psoriasis treatment trials need improvement.
research Overview of the Role of 308 Monochromatic Excimer Phototherapy for the Treatment of Alopecia Areata
308 excimer phototherapy is a safe and effective way to treat hair loss from Alopecia Areata.
research Editorial: Inflammation, stem cells and wound healing in skin aging
Aging skin is affected by inflammation, reduced stem cell function, and slower wound healing.
research Human Hair as a Natural Sun Protection Agent: A Quantitative Study
Hair acts as a significant natural sun barrier, with protection increasing based on hair density, thickness, and melanin presence.
research Amine‐Functionalized Chitosan/dECM Composite Promotes Cutaneous Regeneration and Hair Follicle Activation by Regulating Oxidative Stress and Inflammation
The composite helps hair growth and scalp healing by reducing stress and inflammation.
research Medical Therapies
Combination therapies might work better for some vitiligo patients, but results vary.
research British Association of Dermatologists guidelines on the efficacy and use of acitretin in dermatology
Acitretin is effective for severe skin conditions but has significant side effects and requires careful monitoring.
