Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Wound Healing and the Use of Medicinal Plants
Some medicinal plants can help heal wounds and may lead to new treatments.
research Differential Expression of Fibromodulin, a Transforming Growth Factor-Beta Modulator, in Fetal Skin Development and Scarless Repair
Fibromodulin might help reduce scarring if increased in adult wounds like in fetal skin that heals without scars.
research Low-Level Laser Therapy for Treatment of Hair Loss
Low-Level Laser Therapy is effective and safe for hair growth with minimal side effects.
research The Transcriptional Repressor CDP (Cutl1) Is Essential for Epithelial Cell Differentiation of the Lung and the Hair Follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Metabolic Risk in PCOS: Phenotype and Adiposity Impact
Women with PCOS face higher risks of diabetes and heart disease, and these risks increase with obesity.
research Prostaglandin-Induced Hair Growth
Latanoprost can make eyelashes longer, thicker, and darker.
research Cartilage to Bone Transformation During Fracture Healing Is Coordinated by the Invading Vasculature and Induction of the Core Pluripotency Genes
Blood vessels and specific genes help turn cartilage into bone when bones heal.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research The Role of Tight Junctions in Skin Barrier Function and Dermal Absorption
Tight junctions are key for skin protection and controlling what gets absorbed or passes through the skin.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Biocompatible Nanoparticles and Vesicular Systems in Transdermal Drug Delivery for Various Skin Diseases
Nanoparticles improve drug delivery through the skin but more research is needed on their long-term effects and skin penetration challenges.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Exosomes for Repair, Regeneration, and Rejuvenation
Exosomes could potentially enhance tissue repair and regeneration with lower rejection risk and easier production than live cell therapies.
research Tregs: Where We Are and What Comes Next?
The conclusion is that Treg-targeted therapies have potential, but more knowledge of Treg biology is needed for effective treatments, including for cancer.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Hormesis And Medicine: Biphasic Dose-Response Relationship
Low doses of some substances can be beneficial, while high doses can be harmful or toxic.
research What’s Sex Got to Do With COVID-19? Gender-Based Differences in the Host Immune Response to Coronaviruses
Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Differential Auxin-Transporting Activities of PIN-Formed Proteins in Arabidopsis Root Hair Cells
Different PIN proteins affect plant root hair growth by changing how auxin is transported.
research Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine: Achievements, Future, and Sustainability in Asia
Asia has made significant progress in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but wider clinical use requires more development.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Dermatology: Boon or Bane?
Platelet-rich plasma might help with hair growth and skin conditions, but more research is needed to prove its effectiveness and safety.
research Chronic Inflammatory Diseases Stimulated by Current Lifestyle: How Diet, Stress Levels, and Medication Prevent Our Body from Recovering
