A protein called sFRP4 from skin cells stops the development of pigment-producing cells in hair.
research Psychodermatology in the UK: Psychological Impact of Skin Diseases and Importance of Services
Mindfulness reduces anxiety and depression in skin disease patients; dermatologists and psychiatrists often lack confidence in treating psychodermatological conditions.
research Adipose-Derived Stem Cell Exosomes Antagonize the Inhibitory Effect of Dihydrotestosterone on Hair Follicle Growth by Activating Wnt/Beta-Catenin Pathway
Substances from fat-derived stem cells can promote hair growth and counteract hormone-related hair loss by activating a key hair growth pathway.
research Inducible Deletion of Epidermal Dicer and Drosha Reveals Multiple Functions for miRNAs in Postnatal Skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Cell Death by Cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Differential Gene Expression Analysis Between Anagen and Telogen of Capra Hircus Skin Based on the De Novo Assembled Transcriptome Sequence
Signaling pathways are crucial for hair growth in goats.
research Fibroblasts: Origins, Definitions, and Functions in Health and Disease

research The Nude Mutant Gene Foxn1 Is a HOXC13 Regulatory Target During Hair Follicle and Nail Differentiation
HOXC13 is essential for hair and nail development by regulating Foxn1.
research A Subpopulation of Itch-Sensing Neurons Marked by Ret and Somatostatin Expression
Scientists found a specific group of itch-sensing nerve cells in mice important for feeling itch but not for sensing heat or touch.
research Expression of the Orphan Protein Plet-1 During Trichilemmal Differentiation of Anagen Hair Follicles
Plet-1 protein helps hair follicle cells move and stick to tissues.
research Pitx2, A β-Catenin-Regulated Transcription Factor, Regulates The Differentiation Of Outer Root Sheath Cells Cultured In Vitro
Pitx2 helps outer root sheath cells differentiate but can't start hair growth on its own.
