research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Adrenal Disorders and the Paediatric Brain: Pathophysiological Considerations and Clinical Implications
Adrenal disorders can cause lasting brain and behavior issues in children.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
The document concludes that identifying the cause of amenorrhea is crucial for proper treatment.
research Adult skin acute stress responses to short‐term environmental and internal aggression from exposome factors
Adult skin quickly reacts to short-term environmental and internal stress, leading to various skin issues and the need for protective measures.
research Molecular insights into chronotype and time-of-day effects on decision-making
People's decision-making can be influenced by their internal biological clocks, as shown by gene expression, not just self-reported preferences for morning or evening.
research The bright side of fibroblasts: molecular signature and regenerative cues in major organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research Cellular senescence in tissue repair: every cloud has a silver lining
Cell aging can be both good and bad for tissue repair.
research Sex hormones modulate pathogenic processes in experimental traumatic brain injury
Sex hormones affect brain injury differently in males and females.
research Profile of dermatological consultations in Brazil (2018)
In Brazil in 2018, the most common skin issues were acne, photoaging, and nonmelanoma skin cancer, with treatments often including topical medications and sunscreen.
research Therapeutic Potential of Patient iPSC-Derived iMelanocytes in Autologous Transplantation
Patient-derived melanocytes can potentially treat vitiligo by restoring skin pigmentation.
research Characterization of X-Linked SNP genotypic variation in globally distributed human populations
The research concluded that selection significantly shaped the genetic variation of the X chromosome, with certain regions affected by past selective events.
research Characterisation of cell cycle arrest and terminal differentiation in a maximally proliferative human epithelial tissue: Lessons from the human hair follicle matrix
CIP/KIP proteins help stop cell division and support hair growth.
research The Hair Follicle: An Underutilized Source of Cells and Materials for Regenerative Medicine
Hair follicles are valuable for regenerative medicine and wound healing.
research Current evaluation of amenorrhea
Amenorrhea is when a woman doesn't have periods, with primary amenorrhea starting by age 15 or within five years of breast development, and secondary amenorrhea when periods stop for three months. It affects 3-4% of women not pregnant, breastfeeding, or in menopause, mainly due to polycystic ovary syndrome, hypothalamic amenorrhea, hyperprolactinemia, and ovarian failure.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Immune cell regulation of the hair cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Androgen antagonists in androgen target tissues
Antiandrogens have important biological effects, but more research is needed to understand them fully and compare their effectiveness and side effects to other treatments.
research Anti-aging Properties of Conditioned Media of Epidermal Progenitor Cells Derived from Mesenchymal Stem Cells
EPC-CM can reduce skin aging signs by boosting the skin's defense system.
research Skin Manifestations Associated with Autoimmune Liver Diseases: a Systematic Review
Autoimmune liver diseases are likely linked to certain skin conditions like vitiligo and psoriasis.
research Pregnancy and Skin
Most skin changes during pregnancy are harmless and temporary, but some can risk the fetus and need careful treatment.
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 Adverse health effects of androgen use
Using anabolic androgenic steroids can cause serious, lasting health problems in many parts of the body.
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 A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research Testosterone levels in relation to oral contraceptive use and the androgen receptor CAG and GGC length polymorphisms in healthy young women
Oral contraceptives lower testosterone levels in women, especially those with certain genetic traits, and may be linked to increased breast cancer risk.
research The Black identity, hair product use, and breast cancer scale
The BHBS is a valid tool to study cultural norms and breast cancer risk in Black women.
research Runx1 Role in Epithelial and Cancer Cell Proliferation Implicates Lipid Metabolism and Scd1 and Soat1 Activity
Runx1 controls fat-related genes important for normal and cancer cell growth, affecting skin and hair cell behavior.
research Thyroid diseases and skin autoimmunity
Thyroid diseases may contribute to autoimmune skin diseases, and more research is needed on their relationship.
research Differences in reproductive toxicology between alopecia drugs: an analysis on adverse events among female and male cases
Finasteride has a higher risk of reproductive side effects than minoxidil.
