Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.

The conclusion is that proper signaling is crucial for hair growth and development, and errors can lead to cancer or hair loss.

Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.

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.

The length of the CAG repeat in the androgen receptor gene affects the risk and progression of prostate cancer, BPH, infertility, and undermasculinized genitalia.

Photobiomodulation therapy helps manage cancer treatment side effects but needs more research for optimization.

Stem cells and their surrounding environment in hair follicles work closely together, affecting hair growth and having implications for cancer and tissue regeneration.

Proper control of β-catenin activity is crucial for development and preventing diseases like cancer.

The cancer drugs bortezomib and lenalidomide cause skin side effects in many patients.

Intravital imaging helps us better understand stem cells in their natural environment and could improve knowledge of organ regeneration and cancer development.

Scientists created keratinocyte cell lines from human hair that can differentiate similarly to normal skin cells, offering a new way to study skin biology and diseases.

Higher BMI and lower testosterone are linked to more aggressive prostate cancer.

ERβ has potential in treating prostate cancer and neurodegenerative diseases, but human studies are needed before clinical use.

Finasteride use is not clearly linked to an increased risk of male breast cancer.

Disruptions in sleep-wake cycles can cause health problems like mental, metabolic, and heart diseases, and cancer.

Less differentiated melanoma cells are more vulnerable to a type of cell death, which could improve cancer treatments.

Cancer treatments targeting specific cells often cause skin, hair, and nail problems, affecting patients' lives and requiring careful management.

Early baldness in men may indicate a higher risk of prostate cancer.

Docetaxel treatment for breast cancer can cause permanent hair loss.

Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.

Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.

Oestrogens help maintain healthy skin, heal wounds, and may protect against skin aging and cancer.

Macrophages are vital for skin healing, hair growth, salt balance, and cancer defense.

Immunosuppressive and anti-TNF therapies in IBD patients can increase the risk of skin cancer and cause various skin issues.

Combining irinotecan and cetuximab is effective for some metastatic colorectal cancer patients but often causes manageable skin issues.

Phospholipase A2 enzymes play key roles in skin health and disease.

Non-coding RNAs are crucial for skin development and health.

Ganoderma lucidum may help treat prostate cancer by blocking male hormones and slowing cancer cell growth.

Certain drugs increase calcium levels in cancer cells by triggering internal calcium release.

New treatments like nanotechnology show promise in improving skin cancer therapy.
