research Alopecia Areata: A Review of Disease Pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
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 Alopecia Areata: A Tissue-Specific Autoimmune Disease of the Hair Follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
research Reversal of Alopecia Areata Following Treatment With the JAK1/2 Inhibitor Baricitinib
A patient with Alopecia Areata had complete hair regrowth after using the drug baricitinib.
research Sulforaphane Mobilizes Cellular Defenses That Protect Skin Against Damage by UV Radiation
Sulforaphane from broccoli can help protect skin from sun damage.
research Anthracycline Analogs: The Past, Present, And Future
Epirubicin is as effective as doxorubicin for cancer treatment with less heart damage, but doesn't work on doxorubicin-resistant cancers.
research Review of Pharmacological Effects of Myrtus Communis L. and Its Active Constituents
Myrtle has various health benefits and potential for medicine development.
research Hair and Cancer Chemotherapy: Consequences and Nursing Care - A Literature Study
Chemotherapy-induced hair loss significantly affects patients' well-being, and nurses are key in helping them cope, but more research is needed to find effective treatments.
research Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Regenerative Potency in Periodontium
Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.

Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
research A New Look at the 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and hair loss, but may cause side effects in some patients.
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 Vestibular Hair Cell Regeneration and Restoration of Balance Function Induced by Math1 Gene Transfer
Gene therapy with the Math1 gene helped regenerate balance-related cells and improve balance in mice.
research Activation of Polyamine Catabolism Profoundly Alters Tissue Polyamine Pools and Affects Hair Growth and Female Fertility in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase
In this study, researchers created a transgenic mouse line that overexpressed spermidine/spermine N^1-acetyltransferase, leading to significant alterations in tissue polyamine pools. These changes included the presence of N^1-acetylspermidine, an unusual accumulation of putrescine, and reduced levels of spermidine and spermine. The most notable phenotypic effect was permanent hair loss in mice aged 3 to 4 weeks, associated with the formation of follicular cysts in the dermis, likely due to putrescine's interference with hair follicle cell differentiation and proliferation. Additionally, female mice were infertile, linked to ovarian hypofunction and underdeveloped uteri. This research highlighted the potential of using spermidine/spermine N^1-acetyltransferase overexpression to manipulate polyamine levels in transgenic animals for studying developmental and cancer-related outcomes.
