Severe digestive issues in DRESS need early endoscopy for better treatment.
research In Vivo Immunological Toxicity in Mice of Carbon Nanotubes with Impurities
Pure carbon nanotubes are safe for mice, but impure ones cause immune issues and hair loss.
research FGF7-Dependent Inhibition of Human Hair Growth by an Osteopontin-Derived Peptide: A Novel Solution for Hirsutism and Hypertrichosis
A new peptide, FOL-005, may help treat excessive hair growth by reducing a hair growth promoter, FGF7.
research 17β-Estradiol May Control Human Hair Follicle Growth Also via Up-Regulating the Expression of Cannabinoid Receptor Type 1
17β-estradiol may help hair growth by increasing cannabinoid receptor type 1.
research Proposition of a Low-Cost Field Assay to Determine Antiproliferative Properties of Indigenous Plants Using Dugesia Dorotocephala (Brown Planaria)
The study showed that brown planaria can be used to cheaply test if local plants can stop cell growth.
research Specific In Vivo Ablation of Lrig1-Positive Follicular Stem Cells Results in Sebaceous Gland Loss in Mice
Removing Lrig1-positive stem cells in mice causes temporary loss of sebaceous glands.
research Extended Theory of Selective Photothermolysis: A New Recipe for Hair Removal?
Permanent hair removal is hard, but using longer laser pulses at lower power might improve results.
research HtrA1L364P Leads to Cognitive Dysfunction and Vascular Destruction Through TGF-β/Smad Signaling Pathway in CARASIL Model Mice
The HtrA1L364P mutation causes brain dysfunction and blood vessel damage.
research Surgery And Laser
Various skin conditions like cutaneous lupus erythematosus, psoriasis, and basal cell carcinoma can be effectively treated with antihypertensive agents, NB-UVB phototherapy, and imiquimod cream respectively. Vaccines are effective against genital herpes and HPV-16 infection. Early intervention is crucial for conditions like diabetic foot ulcers and neonatal herpes. Certain dyes can cause hand dermatitis, and there's a link between smoking/drinking and psoriasis in men. No direct link was found between low iron levels and chronic hair loss in women.
research Mitochondrial DNA Damage, Oxidative Stress, And Atherosclerosis
Improving mitochondrial health may better treat atherosclerosis than antioxidants.
research Direct Implantation of Hair-Follicle-Associated Pluripotent Stem Cells Repairs Intracerebral Hemorrhage and Reduces Neuroinflammation in Mouse Model
Implanting hair-follicle stem cells in mice brains helped repair brain bleeding and reduced brain inflammation.
research Baker's Dozen on the Scalp: An Interesting Case of Multiple Trichilemmal Cysts
A woman had 13 non-cancerous cysts on her scalp successfully removed in one surgery.
research Omenn Syndrome in a 10-Month-Old Male With Athymia and VACTERL Association
A 10-month-old boy with a rare combination of genetic conditions has severe immune deficiency and treatment challenges.
research Dual-Action Icariin-Containing Thermosensitive Hydrogel for Wound Macrophage Polarization and Hair Follicle Neogenesis
The gel with icariin speeds up wound healing, reduces scarring, and helps hair growth by controlling BMP4 signaling. It also reduces inflammation and improves wound quality in mice, adapts to different wound shapes, and gradually releases icariin to aid healing. It also prevents too much collagen and myofibroblast formation during skin healing.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Production and Dihydrotestosterone Antagonizes the Enhancement via the Regulation of Adenylate Cyclase in Differentiated THP-1 Cells
Estrogen increases blood vessel growth factor production, while testosterone blocks this increase.
research In Vitro and In Vivo Evaluation of Chitosan/HPMC/Insulin Hydrogel for Wound Healing Applications
The hydrogel made of chitosan, HPMC, and insulin speeds up wound healing and could be a new dressing, especially for diabetics.
research Chronic Treatment with Minoxidil Induces Elastic Fiber Neosynthesis and Functional Improvement in the Aorta of Aged Mice
Minoxidil treatment increases aorta elasticity and reduces stiffness in aged mice, potentially helping with age-related heart issues.
research The Role of Histone Demethylases in Disease
Histone demethylases play a key role in the development of many diseases and may be targets for treatment.
research Stem Cells in Tissue Engineering
Different stem cells have benefits and challenges for tissue repair, and more research is needed to find the best types for each use.
research Developing Optical Biometrics Using Optical Coherence Tomography for Medical Screening and Diagnosis
OCT can effectively screen and diagnose various medical conditions non-invasively.
research Early Androgenetic Alopecia as a Marker of Insulin Resistance
Early hair loss may indicate risk of insulin resistance.
research Fresh Umbilical Cord Blood as a Source of Multipotent Stem Cells: Collection, Banking, Cryopreservation, and Ethical Concerns
