research Neural Crest Cells Give Rise to Non-Myogenic Mesenchymal Tissue in the Adult Murid Ear Pinna
Certain cells in the adult mouse ear come from cranial neural crest cells, but muscle and hair cells do not.
research Hair Follicle-Derived IL-7 and IL-15 Mediate Skin-Resident Memory T Cell Homeostasis and Lymphoma
Hair follicle-derived IL-7 and IL-15 are crucial for maintaining skin-resident memory T cells and could be targeted for treating skin diseases and lymphoma.
research Mesenchymal Stromal Cell-Conditioned Medium for Skin Diseases: A Systematic Review
The review suggests that a special cell-derived treatment shows promise for various skin conditions and hair growth but needs more research for confirmation.
research Effects of RF Electric Currents on Hair Follicle Growth and Differentiation: A Possible Treatment for Alopecia
RF-based therapies might help treat hair loss.
research Piperine Reduces Hair Oiliness by Inhibiting Adipogenesis of Hair Stem Cells
Piperine from black pepper can make hair less oily by blocking fat cell development in hair roots.
research SCD1 Sustains Homeostasis of Bulge Niche via Maintaining Hemidesmosomes in Basal Keratinocytes
SCD1 is important for hair growth by keeping the connection in skin cells where hair stem cells live stable.
research Keratin Disorders: From Gene to Therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research The Developmental Basis of Fingerprint Pattern Formation and Variation
Fingerprints form uniquely before birth due to specific genetic pathways and local signals.
research Ectopic Expression of a Truncated Isoform of Hair Keratin 81 in Breast Cancer Alters Biophysical Characteristics to Promote Metastatic Propensity
A specific hair protein variant increases the spread of breast cancer and is linked to worse survival rates.
research 5α-Reductase Activity in the Prostate
Blocking the enzyme 5α-reductase can shrink the prostate and help treat enlarged prostate issues.
research The Role of P-Cadherin in Skin Biology and Pathology: Lessons from the Hair Follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Tissue Expansion and Serial Excision in Scar Revision
Both tissue expansion and serial excision are effective for scar revision in the head and neck area.
research Consequences of Steroid-5α-Reductase Deficiency and Inhibition in Vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The skin has multiple layers and cells, serves as a protective barrier, helps regulate temperature, enables sensation, affects appearance, and is involved in vitamin D synthesis.
research Sox9 Expression in Canine Epithelial Skin Tumors
Sox9 is present in most canine skin tumors and may help understand stem cells' role in these cancers.
research Regulated Proenkephalin Expression in Human Skin and Cultured Skin Cells
Human skin cells produce proenkephalin, which changes with environmental factors and skin diseases.
research The Multisystem Impact of Long COVID: A Comprehensive Review
Long COVID causes a wide range of long-lasting symptoms that change over time and are hard to diagnose and treat.
research Epithelial Expression of the Hormone Leptin by Bovine Skin
Cattle skin has leptin which might control skin and hair growth.
research Histopathological Study of Epithelial, Melanocytic and Adnexal Tumors of Skin: A Retrospective Study in a Tertiary Care Centre
Most skin tumors in the study were benign, with squamous cell carcinoma being the most common malignant type.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Treatment of Multiple Scalp Basal Cell Carcinomas by Photodynamic Therapy
Photodynamic therapy was effective in treating multiple scalp basal cell carcinomas with minimal side effects and good cosmetic results.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.
research Keratins in Health and Cancer: More Than Mere Epithelial Cell Markers
Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.
research Wnt Signaling Induces Epithelial Differentiation During Cutaneous Wound Healing
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin wound healing and reducing scars.
research Activator Protein-1 Activity Regulates Epithelial Tumor Cell Identity
Inhibiting AP-1 changes skin tumor types and affects tumor cell identity.
