research Hair Follicle Disruption Facilitates Pathogenesis to UVB-Induced Cutaneous Inflammation and Basal Cell Carcinoma Development in Ptch+/- Mice
Damaged hair follicles make mice more prone to skin inflammation and skin cancer after UV exposure.
research Keratin-Mediated Hair Growth and Its Underlying Biological Mechanism
Keratin injections can promote hair growth by affecting hair-forming cells and tissue development.
research Preparing the Hair Follicle Canal for Hair Shaft Emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Methods in Inflammatory Hair Disease Research: Enhanced Multiplex Imaging on Alopecia Areata Tissue Sections
New imaging technology can show up to 40 different markers in hair loss tissue, helping to understand hair disease better.
research PPAR-γ Modulation as a Novel Therapeutic Strategy for Scarring Alopecia
A new treatment using AGED to modulate PPAR-γ shows promise for treating scarring hair loss by protecting and repairing hair follicle cells.
research The PPAR-γ Modulator, N-Acetyl-GED, Protects From Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition in Human Hair Follicles: Potential Relevance for Scarring Alopecia
N-acetyl-GED may help prevent and partially reverse a process that leads to scarring hair loss.
research Spatiotemporal Antagonism in Mesenchymal-Epithelial Signaling in Sweat Versus Hair Fate Decision
Sweat glands and hair follicles are determined by opposing signals, with BMPs promoting sweat glands and blocking BMPs leading to hair follicles.
research An Underlying Mechanism of Hair Loss in Acrodermatitis Enteropathica
Zinc deficiency disrupts hair growth and cycle, but zinc supplements can fix this.
research Genetics of Alopecia
Different genes are linked to various types of hair loss.

research The Role of the Vitamin D Receptor in the Epidermal Stem Cell Response to Wounding
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for skin wound healing.
research Dynamic Expression Patterns of Tenascin, Proteoglycans, and Cell Adhesion Molecules During Human Hair Follicle Morphogenesis
Specific proteins and molecules play key roles in the development of human hair follicles.
research Deciphering the Role of the Hexosamine Pathway in Skin Homeostasis
The hexosamine pathway helps protect skin cells from stress and may improve skin and hair health.
research Bad Hair Day: Testosterone and Wnt Signaling
Testosterone can both promote hair growth and cause baldness by affecting hair growth signals.
research Dermal Fibroblasts Enhance Growth Factors Production by Androgens and Modulate Keratinocyte Proliferation and Differentiation
Androgens increase growth factors in skin cells, which may lead to acne.
research Melanocytes: The New Black
Melanocytes are crucial for skin pigmentation and can affect conditions like melanoma, vitiligo, and albinism, as well as hair color and hearing.
research Regulation of Mitochondrial Oxidative Metabolism by Tumor Suppressor FLCN
The tumor suppressor gene FLCN affects mitochondrial function and energy use in cells.
research Wnt Signaling in Skin Organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Hair Bundle Defects and Loss of Function in the Vestibular End Organs of Mice Lacking the Receptor-Like Inositol Lipid Phosphatase PTPRQ
Mutations in the PTPRQ gene cause significant balance issues in mice due to hair bundle defects in the inner ear.
research Proliferation, But Not Apoptosis, Is Associated With Distinct Beta-Catenin Expression Patterns in Non-Small-Cell Lung Carcinomas
Distinct β-catenin patterns are linked to cell growth, not cell death, in lung cancer.
research Isolation of Epithelial Stem Cells from Dermis by a Three-Dimensional Culture System
Researchers isolated a new type of stem cell from mouse skin that can renew itself and turn into multiple cell types.
research Modeling of Chronic Radiation-Induced Cystitis in Mice
Researchers developed a mouse model that successfully mimics the bladder damage seen in humans after radiation therapy.
research Role of Beta-Catenin Activation Levels and Fluctuations in Controlling Cell Fate
Proper control of β-catenin activity is crucial for development and preventing diseases like cancer.
research Accelerated Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition Increased Fibrosis via Deleting Notch Signaling in Wound Vasculature
