research Alopecia Areata: Treatment Options and Efficacy
Some treatments can help with a hair loss condition called alopecia areata, but none ensure lasting results; choices depend on the person, with JAK inhibitors showing promise for severe cases.
research The PDGF/PDGFR Pathway as a Drug Target
The PDGF/PDGFR pathway is a potential drug target with mixed success in treating various diseases, including some cancers and fibrosis.

Special fiber materials boost the healing properties of certain stem cells.
research ATP-Dependent Chromatin Remodeling During Mammalian Development
ATP-dependent chromatin-remodeling complexes are crucial for gene regulation, cell differentiation, and organ development in mammals.
research The Role of Hair Follicles in the Percutaneous Absorption of Caffeine
Hair follicles significantly increase the speed and amount of caffeine absorbed through the skin.
research Guidelines for the Management of Alopecia Areata
The 2003 guidelines suggest that while some treatments can regrow hair in alopecia areata, none alter the disease's progression, and wigs may be the best option for extensive hair loss.
research Evidence That Myc Activation Depletes the Epidermal Stem Cell Compartment by Modulating Adhesive Interactions with the Local Microenvironment
The study demonstrated that Myc activation in mouse epidermis led to the depletion of the epidermal stem cell compartment by altering adhesive interactions with the local microenvironment. This was evidenced by the transcriptional analysis of over 10,000 genes, revealing that Myc activation induced genes related to RNA and protein synthesis, cell proliferation, and differentiation, while downregulating over 40% of genes associated with cell adhesion and cytoskeleton proteins. These changes impaired keratinocyte adhesion, motility, and wound healing, correlating with decreased expression of extracellular matrix proteins and integrins, and reduced formation of hemidesmosomes and actomyosin cytoskeleton assembly. Consequently, Myc activation prompted stem cell exit and differentiation into sebocytes and interfollicular epidermis at the expense of hair lineages, due to impaired keratinocyte migration necessary for hair differentiation.
research Androgens Protect Against Apolipoprotein E4-Induced Cognitive Deficits
Androgens can help prevent memory problems caused by apoE4.
research Enhanced Delivery of Drugs Into and Across the Skin by Ethosomal Carriers
