research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
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 Obesity and the Skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research YAP And TAZ Are Essential For Basal And Squamous Cell Carcinoma Initiation
YAP and TAZ proteins are necessary for the development of two types of skin cancer.

research Expression Patterns of MITF During Human Cutaneous Embryogenesis: Evidence for Bulge Epithelial Expression and Persistence of Dermal Melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Hydrogen Peroxide Disrupts Scarless Fetal Wound Repair
Hydrogen peroxide can cause scars by changing healing processes and increasing certain protein levels.
research Iron Plays a Certain Role in Patterned Hair Loss
Iron deficiency may contribute to hair loss.
research Effect of a Nutritional Supplement on Hair Loss in Women
The nutritional supplement improved hair density and reduced hair loss in women with female pattern hair loss.
research The Bright Side of Fibroblasts: Molecular Signature and Regenerative Cues in Major Organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research Autoimmune Disease and Hair Loss
Autoimmune diseases can cause hair loss, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent damage.
research Oncogenic Senescence: A Multi-Functional Perspective
Cellular senescence has both cancer-blocking and cancer-promoting effects, and targeting senescent cells may improve health and lifespan.
