research A Mini Review on Phytochemical and Therapeutic Potential of Hibiscus: An Ornamental Plant Species
Hibiscus has medicinal benefits but can be toxic in high doses and is unsafe for pregnant women and infants.
research Chronic Toxicity Studies of the Potential Cancer Preventive 2-(Difluoromethyl)-DL-Ornithine
The study investigated the chronic toxicity of 2-(difluoromethyl)-dl-ornithine, a potential cancer preventive agent, in rats and dogs. In rats, high dosages (400, 800, and 1600 mg/kg) over 52 weeks caused weight loss, increased platelets, alopecia, skin issues, liver necrosis, and gastric inflammation, with 400 mg/kg being the no-effect dose. In dogs, dosages of 50, 100, and 200 mg/kg led to conjunctivitis, hyperkeratosis, alopecia, and cystic intestinal crypts, but a no-effect dose was not identified. Despite these toxicities, the study suggested that lower dosages might minimize adverse effects, supporting further clinical development of the compound.
research The Silver Locus Product (Silv/gp100/Pmel17) as a New Tool for the Analysis of Melanosome Transfer in Human Melanocyte–Keratinocyte Co-Culture
The new assay can track and measure melanosome transfer between skin cells, confirming filopodia's role in this process.
research Prostaglandin Metabolism in Human Hair Follicle
Human hair follicles can make and process prostaglandins, which may affect hair growth.
research Foot Shock Stress Prolongs the Telogen Stage of the Spontaneous Hair Cycle in a Non-Depilated Mouse Model
Stress in mice delays hair growth and treatments blocking substance P can partly reverse this effect.
research L-Carnitine-L-Tartrate Promotes Human Hair Growth In Vitro
L-Carnitine-L-tartrate may help hair grow and prevent hair loss.
research Expression of NAD+-Dependent 15-Hydroxyprostaglandin Dehydrogenase and Protection of Prostaglandins in Human Hair Follicle
A substance called compound-1 could help increase hair growth by maintaining prostaglandin levels in hair follicles.
research Molecular Elements of the Regulatory Control of Keratin Filament Modulator AHF/Trichohyalin in the Hair Follicle
The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.
research New Developments in Our Understanding of Acne Pathogenesis and Treatment
We now understand more about what causes acne and this could lead to better, more personalized treatments.
research Role of Insulin, Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1, Hyperglycemic Food, and Milk Consumption in the Pathogenesis of Acne Vulgaris
Eating high-glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Hedgehog Signaling in Skin Development and Cancer
The document reviewed the role of the hedgehog (Hh) signalling pathway in skin development and cancer, particularly basal cell carcinoma (BCC), which affected 750,000 Americans annually. It highlighted how mutations in genes like PATCHED (PTCH), sonic hedgehog (Shh), and smoothened (Smo) expanded the understanding of BCC's genetic basis. The Shh pathway was crucial for stem cell maintenance and hair follicle and sebaceous gland development in the skin, though it played a minimal role in adult tissues. The review summarized studies on the Shh pathway's involvement in skin development and cancer, described animal models based on this pathway, and discussed chemoprevention strategies for BCCs, providing insights into molecular target-based prevention and treatment of skin cancer.
research Biology of Estrogens in Skin: Implications for Skin Aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Melatonin as a Major Skin Protectant: From Free Radical Scavenging to DNA Damage Repair
Melatonin protects the skin by scavenging free radicals and repairing DNA damage.
research Molecular and Functional Aspects of the Hairless (Hr) Gene in Laboratory Rodents and Humans
The document discussed the hairless (hr) gene in laboratory rodents and humans, highlighting its role in skin physiology and hair follicle biology. Although hairless and rhino mouse mutants were extensively used to study skin-related topics, the primary cellular defect of hairlessness was often overlooked. The identification of the human homolog of the hr gene on Chromosome 8p12 linked it to a congenital hair disorder in humans, similar to hairless mice. Mutations in the hr gene in mice served as models for understanding its function and the pathophysiology of related human disorders. The document reviewed the structure, expression patterns, and mutations of the hr gene, as well as associated pathologies, reproductive and immunological defects, and susceptibility to dioxin toxicity. It speculated on the potential functions of the hr gene product in skin and hair follicle biology.
research Histopathology of Non-Scarring Alopecia
The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
