Some skin disorders might be linked to H. pylori infection, but more research is needed to confirm this.
research Safety concerns when using novel medications to treat alopecia
Consider benefits and risks of new alopecia treatments for safety.
research Review paper The use of reflectance confocal microscopy in selected inflammatory skin diseases
Reflectance confocal microscopy is a useful, non-invasive tool for diagnosing some skin diseases, with potential for future improvements.
research The Transmembrane Serine Protease HAT-like 4 Is Important for Epidermal Barrier Function to Prevent Body Fluid Loss
HAT-L4 is crucial for preventing body fluid loss by maintaining skin barrier integrity.
research Reduced cell cohesiveness of outgrowths from eccrine sweat glands delays wound closure in elderly skin
Older people's sweat glands are less effective at helping skin wounds heal due to weaker cell connections.
research Transcriptomic regulation of seasonal coat color change in hares
Genes related to pigmentation, body rhythms, and behavior change during hares' seasonal coat color transition, with a common genetic mechanism in two hare species.
research Efficacy of Postbiotics in a PRP-Like Cosmetic Product for the Treatment of Alopecia Area Celsi: A Randomized Double-Blinded Parallel-Group Study
The PRP-like cosmetic product with postbiotics effectively treats hair loss in Alopecia areata.
research Pre-aggregation of scalp progenitor dermal and epidermal stem cells activates the WNT pathway and promotes hair follicle formation in in vitro and in vivo systems
Grouping certain skin cells together activates a growth pathway that helps create new hair follicles.
research The usefulness of dermoscopy in canine pattern alopecia: a descriptive study
Dermoscopy is useful for diagnosing hair loss patterns in dogs.
research The Effect of Parathyroid Hormones on Hair Follicle Physiology: Implications for Treatment of Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Parathyroid hormones are important for hair growth, but their use in treating hair loss from chemotherapy is still uncertain.
research Morpho‐regulation in diverse chicken feather formation: Integrating branching modules and sex hormone‐dependent morpho‐regulatory modules
Sex hormones, especially estradiol, can change chicken feather shapes and colors.
research Systematic review of low-level laser therapy for adult androgenic alopecia
Low-level laser therapy can stimulate hair growth more effectively than fake devices, but patient satisfaction is similar for both. Results should be taken with caution due to small study sizes and differences between studies. More research is needed.
research Trichoscopy - a useful tool in the preliminary differential diagnosis of autoimmune bullous diseases
Trichoscopy helps quickly identify autoimmune diseases on the scalp but should be used with other standard tests.
research Nanocarrier Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery
Nanocarriers could improve how drugs are delivered through the skin but require more research to overcome challenges and ensure safety.
research Survival of Densely Packed Follicular Unit Grafts Using the Lateral Slit Technique
Densely packed hair grafts can survive well using the lateral slit technique.
research Facilitation of facial prosthesis placement with tattoo markers: A clinical report
Tattoo markers help place ear prostheses easily and improve acceptance.
research Distinct expression profile of stem cell markers, LGR5 and LGR6, in basaloid skin tumors
LGR5 and LGR6 are expressed differently in various skin tumors, which may offer clues about their origins.
research Dermal papilla cells and melanocytes response to physiological oxygen levels depends on their interactions
Low oxygen levels improve the function of hair and skin cells when they are in direct contact.
research Alopecia as a systemic disease
Hair loss can indicate or worsen with systemic diseases, and treating the underlying condition is important.
research Motoneuron-Specific PTEN Deletion in Mice Induces Neuronal Hypertrophy and Also Regeneration after Facial Nerve Injury
Deleting the PTEN gene in mice causes nerve cells to grow larger and heal better after injury, but may cause overgrowth and hair loss in older mice.
research Alopecia areata: a comprehensive review of clinical, immunologic, and genetic perspectives
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss, with no cure yet, but research may lead to new treatments.
