April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that acne lesions and nonlesional skin in mild-to-moderate acne patients showed significant Th17-skewing and increased antimicrobials, suggesting systemic targets like IL-17/IL-23/IL-36 could be therapeutic.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that elevated STAT5 levels are linked to improved hair-inducing capabilities in human dermal papilla cells, and reducing STAT5 impairs hair follicle induction.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that treating human dermal fibroblast cells with ginsenoside Rd increased the expression of mRNA associated with the dermal-epidermal junction, suggesting potential as an anti-aging cosmetic ingredient.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that TGFbeta is a key pathway causing age-related loss of dermal fat's antimicrobial function, suggesting that targeting TGFBR might help restore skin defense against infections in older age.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that terminally differentiated effector memory Vδ1T-cells and their cytotoxic activation markers were elevated in alopecia areata patients, suggesting these cells may contribute to its early pathogenesis.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The researchers reported that nicotinic acid normalized excessive sebaceous lipogenesis without affecting basal lipogenesis and suggested potential anti-acne benefits.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study demonstrated that mitochondrial function in keratinocytes is crucial for maintaining skin homeostasis and hair follicle development, as its impairment led to disrupted hair morphogenesis and early death in mice.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” The researchers reported that iPSCs derived from Sendai virus reprogrammed blood cells can mature into functional keratinocytes for up to 60 days, potentially offering new approaches for DEB treatment.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.
April 2016 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, Mpzl3-/- mice developed severe seborrhea-like dermatitis with skin inflammation, indicating MPZL3's role in the skin condition's development, independent of adaptive immunity.
December 2015 in “Vascular Pharmacology” Different cells affect hair follicle blood vessels, endothelial cells react differently to inflammation and oxidized fats, and prasugrel better protects heart vessels during a procedure than clopidogrel.
December 2015 in “Vascular Pharmacology” Prasugrel is better than clopidogrel at preventing heart damage and improving blood flow in small heart vessels during heart artery procedures.
November 2013 in “Dalhousie Medical Journal” This review discusses the epidemiology and cutaneous manifestations of lupus erythematosus, highlighting comparable incidence rates between cutaneous and systemic forms, but reports no new findings.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that the absence of Hes1 in hair follicles delays secondary hair germ activation and shortens the anagen phase, impacting HFSC self-renewal and long-term hair regeneration.
April 2017 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that human iPSC-derived dermal papilla precursor cells can regenerate hair follicle structures, offering a potential new treatment approach for permanent alopecia.
January 2004 in “Online Publication Service of Würzburg University (Würzburg University)” This study found that women with PCOS displayed significantly higher activity of 5alpha-reductase, suggesting an additional role for liver and peripheral tissues in their androgen excess.
January 2004 in “Online Publication Service of Würzburg University (Würzburg University)” This study found that women with PCOS have higher activity of the enzyme 5alpha-reductase, which may contribute to their elevated androgen levels.
