April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study found that electrical epilation in organ-cultured human scalp skin perturbs hair follicles by causing inflammation, impairing melanin production, and possibly inhibiting post-epilation hair re-growth.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This article proposes a new classification system for cutaneous adnexal cysts based on their origin in the folliculo-sebaceous unit and sweat glands, aiming to clarify their categorization and origins.
April 2018 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study identified the osteopontin-derived peptide, FOL-005, as a potential inhibitor of unwanted human hair growth by promoting catagen development without reducing stem cell numbers or showing toxicity.
April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” This study observed that in an ex vivo setting, 17β-estradiol increased CB1 expression in human hair follicles, suggesting possible sensitivity to endocannabinoids and a potential mechanism for hair therapy.
April 2018 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” The authors concluded that Lrig1-positive stem cells are essential for sebaceous gland formation in mice, as their ablation led to temporary sebaceous gland disappearance without affecting hair growth.
This reference list, part of a book by Alex Gough, Alison Thomas, and Dan O'Neill, compiles citations from veterinary journals on various canine and feline health issues, but reports no new research findings.
January 2018 in “Online Publication Service of Würzburg University (Würzburg University)” This study found that donor age and culture medium significantly impact the quality of human full-thickness skin models, with implications for their use as animal model alternatives in research.
