research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth.
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Pegylated Liposomal Doxorubicin in the Treatment of Breast Cancer
PLD is an effective and safer alternative for treating breast cancer.
research From skin microrelief to wrinkles. An area ripe for investigation
Wrinkles form due to structural skin changes and vary in type and treatment response.
research Hormonal regulation of hair follicles exhibits a biological paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research White Lupin Cluster Root Acclimation to Phosphorus Deficiency and Root Hair Development Involve Unique Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases
White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
research Skin connective tissue and ageing
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Skin ageing
After menopause, women lose a lot of skin collagen, but estrogen replacement might improve skin health.
research Reversing wrinkled skin and hair loss in mice by restoring mitochondrial function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research Effect of estrogens on skin aging and the potential role of selective estrogen receptor modulators
Estrogens and SERMs can help with skin aging, but their safety and effectiveness need more research.
research Bioactive antiinflammatory antibacterial hemostatic citrate-based dressing with macrophage polarization regulation for accelerating wound healing and hair follicle neogenesis
A special dressing called FEA-PCEI can speed up wound healing, reduce scars, and help grow new hair follicles, but only at the right dosage.
research A 12-week treatment with the long-acting glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonist liraglutide leads to significant weight loss in a subset of obese women with newly diagnosed polycystic ovary syndrome
Liraglutide caused significant weight loss in some obese women with PCOS, especially those with severe obesity and insulin resistance.
research Sex Steroid Hormone Receptors in Human Skin Appendage and its Neoplasms
Sex steroids influence skin appendage function and neoplasm development, with changes in AR and ERalpha in certain gland neoplasms.
research Regulatory roles of androgens in cutaneous wound healing
Testosterone may slow down wound healing and increase inflammation.
research TOXIC EPIDERMAL NECROLYSIS
Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a severe skin reaction often linked to drugs, requiring careful medication use and supportive care.
research The effect of menopause on the skin and other connective tissues
Menopause significantly reduces skin collagen, leading to thinner, less elastic skin, and hormone replacement may help but requires careful consideration.
research Tooth Regeneration: Insights from Tooth Development and Spatial-Temporal Control of Bioactive Drug Release
Tooth regeneration could become possible by controlling how and when bioactive factors are released.
research Androgens Affect the Activity of Human Sebocytes in Culture in a Manner Dependent on the Localization of the Sebaceous Glands and Their Effect Is Antagonized by Spironolactone
Male hormones affect oil-producing skin cells differently based on their body location, and the drug spironolactone can reduce these effects.
research Stem cell factor/c-Kit signalling in normal and androgenetic alopecia hair follicles
SCF and c-Kit decrease in AGA hair follicles, possibly affecting hair pigmentation and growth.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Studying SARS-CoV-2 infectivity and therapeutic responses with complex organoids
Organoids can help study COVID-19 and develop treatments, but face challenges like instability and limited renewal.
research Label Retaining Cells (LRCs) with Myoepithelial Characteristic from the Proximal Acinar Region Define Stem Cells in the Sweat Gland
Sweat gland stem cells help maintain glands, aid wound healing, and can regenerate skin structures.
research The Efficacy of 24-Month Metformin for Improving Menses, Hormones, and Metabolic Profiles in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Metformin improves menstrual cycles and hormone levels in women with PCOS, mostly within the first 6 months.
research Effects of 17-β-Estradiol and ICI 182 780 on Hair Growth in Various Strains of Mice
17-β-Estradiol applied to the skin stops hair growth, while ICI 182 780 helps hair grow in mice.
research Alopecia and the metabolic syndrome
Men with common hair loss may have a higher risk of heart disease and diabetes, and should be checked for these conditions.
research Iron deficiency and diffuse nonscarring scalp alopecia in women: More pieces to the puzzle
The conclusion suggests a possible link between iron levels and hair health in women, recommending further research on iron supplementation for hair loss.
research Gata6 promotes hair follicle progenitor cell renewal by genome maintenance during proliferation
Gata6 is important for protecting hair growth cells from DNA damage and keeping normal hair growth.
research Gene expression of type 2 17β hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase in scalp hairs of hirsute women
Hirsute women have lower type 2 17β-HSD enzyme levels, which improve with treatment.
research Stem cells and aberrant signaling of molecular systems in skin aging
Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.
research Steroid sulfatase inhibitors
Steroid Sulfatase inhibitors show promise in treating hormone-dependent disorders like cancers, hair loss, and acne, with 667COUMATE being a potential candidate for breast cancer treatment trials.
