research TRPA1 Modulates Mechanotransduction in Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
TRPA1 is crucial for mechanical sensitivity in skin sensory neurons.
research Targeting the Wnt Pathways for Therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Inhibition of 5α-Reductase Impairs Cognitive Performance, Alters Dendritic Morphology, and Increases Tau Phosphorylation in the Hippocampus of Male 3xTg-AD Mice
Blocking 5α-reductase can harm memory and brain structure, and increase harmful brain changes in male mice used for Alzheimer's disease research.
research Long-Term Administration of Triterpenoids From Ganoderma Lucidum Mitigates Age-Associated Brain Physiological Decline via Regulating Sphingolipid Metabolism and Enhancing Autophagy in Mice
Taking triterpenoids from Ganoderma lucidum over a long time can help slow down brain aging and improve overall health in mice.
research Application of Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Anti-Senescence and Clinical Challenges
Mesenchymal stem cells could help treat aging-related diseases better than current methods.
research Analyzing the Laser-Light Reflection from Human Hair Fibers: Deriving a Measure of Hair Luster
The conclusion is that a new method to measure hair shine was confirmed to match people's visual assessments.
research Studies of Light Scattering from Ethnic Hair Fibers
Different hair types from various ethnic groups affect hair shine due to characteristics like thickness and shape.
research Exploring the Effects of Wetting and Free Fatty Acid Deposition on a Hair Fiber Surface Model Incorporating Keratin Associated Protein 5-1
Water and fatty acids affect hair's surface differently based on hair damage, and models can help understand hair-cosmetic interactions.
research Skin Connective Tissue and Aging
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Chronic Treatment with Minoxidil Induces Elastic Fiber Neosynthesis and Functional Improvement in the Aorta of Aged Mice
Minoxidil treatment increases aorta elasticity and reduces stiffness in aged mice, potentially helping with age-related heart issues.
research Stem Cells and the Niche: A Dynamic Duo
Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell behavior and tissue health, and their decline can impact aging and cancer.
research Regeneration of Hair and Other Skin Appendages: A Microenvironment-Centric View
The microenvironment, especially mechanical forces, plays a crucial role in hair growth and could lead to new treatments for hair loss.
research A Two-Step Culture Method for Efficient Production of Trichogenic Keratinocytes
A two-step method was created in 2015 to make more cells that help with hair growth, but they need to be combined with other cells for 4 days to actually form new hair.
research Forensics in Dermatology: Part II
Dermatologists play a key role in identifying and documenting signs of abuse and injury for forensic investigations.
research Role of the Wnt Signaling Pathway in Keratoacanthoma
The Wnt signaling pathway is not a major factor in the development of keratoacanthoma, a type of skin tumor.
research Sex Steroid Synthesis in Human Skin In Situ: The Roles of Aromatase and Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein in the Homeostasis of Human Skin
Human skin produces sex hormones like estrogen and testosterone, influenced by ARO and StAR, which may affect skin elasticity and hair growth.
research Review of the Current Understanding of the Effect of Ultraviolet and Visible Radiation on Hair Structure and Options for Photoprotection
UV radiation and visible light can damage hair, but there are ways to protect it.
research Characterization of Hair Follicle Development in Engineered Skin Substitutes
Engineered skin substitutes can grow hair but have limitations like missing sebaceous glands and hair not breaking through the skin naturally.
research Effect of Ultraviolet Radiation, Smoking, and Nutrition on Hair
Ultraviolet rays damage hair, smoking may cause hair loss, and good nutrition is important for hair health, but genetics mainly decide hair thickness.
research Gerbils
Proper care and diet are crucial to prevent health issues in gerbils.
research Follicular Unit Megasessions and Platelet Growth Factors
Using platelet growth factors can improve hair density in transplants, especially for those with fine hair.
research Perspectives of Kennedy's Disease
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness and sensory issues, has no cure but manageable symptoms, and future treatments look promising.
research Meta-Analysis of Efficacy of Platelet-Rich Plasma Therapy for Androgenetic Alopecia
PRP therapy may effectively treat hair loss, but more research needed.
research Endocrinology, Brain, and Pituitary Gland
Hormones control reproduction and are crucial for body balance.
research The History of the Development of Minoxidil
Minoxidil was first made for high blood pressure, but it was later found to help hair growth.
research Potassium Channel Therapeutics at the Bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
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.
