research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Regulation of Somatic Cell Reprogramming Through Inducible miR-302 Expression
Increasing mir-302 turns human hair cells into stem cells by changing gene regulation and demethylation.
research Cell Death in the Skin: Mechanisms and Implications
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Stem Cell Secretome as a New Booster for Regenerative Medicine
Stem cells help repair tissue mainly by releasing beneficial substances, not by replacing damaged cells.
