research Clinical Snippets: Research Findings in Dermatology
New findings suggest potential treatments for melanoma, hyperpigmentation, hair defects, and multiple sclerosis, and show skin microbiome changes don't cause atopic dermatitis.
research Clinical Snippets: Insights into Dermatological Studies
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
research Editors' Picks
Small molecule DMF improves psoriasis and multiple sclerosis, adult skin cells can be made to grow new hair, certain skin cells initiate hair growth, IL-17C controls gut health and can cause skin inflammation, and skin cells produce IL-17 that can lead to psoriasis.
research A Comparison of Vertical Versus Transverse Sections for the Histopathologic Diagnosis of Alopecias
Transverse sections are better for non-scarring hair loss, vertical sections are better for lichen planopilaris, and either method works for other scarring hair loss types.
research Hairless: A Nuclear Receptor Corepressor Essential for Skin Function
The Hairless gene is crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Epidermal Homeostasis: A Balancing Act of Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Scratching the Surface of Skin Development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Hair Follicle Pigmentation: Mechanisms and Factors Influencing Melanin Production
Hair color is determined by melanin produced and transferred in hair follicles.
research Alopecia Areata: An Autoimmune Disease Causing Hair Loss
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.
research Defining the Impact of Beta-Catenin/Tcf Transactivation on Epithelial Stem Cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research Mitochondrial Reactive Oxygen Species Promote Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Development
Mitochondrial reactive oxygen species are essential for skin and hair development.
research Induction of the Hair Growth Phase in Postnatal Mice by Localized Transient Expression of Sonic Hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research Vitamin D Metabolism and Function in the Skin
Skin cells produce and activate vitamin D, which regulates skin functions and supports hair growth.
research An Integrated Transcriptome Atlas of Embryonic Hair Follicle Progenitors, Their Niche, and the Developing Skin
The study identified unique genes in hair follicle cells and their environment, suggesting these genes help organize cells for hair growth.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Caffeine’s Mechanisms of Action and Its Cosmetic Use
Caffeine in cosmetics may reduce cellulite, protect skin, and stimulate hair growth, but more research is needed on its use and effects.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Focus on a Complex Relationship
Vitamin D is important for skin health and may affect conditions like psoriasis and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand its role fully.
research Hair Follicle Immune Privilege and Its Collapse in Alopecia Areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Genetic Basis of Skin Appendage Development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
research Order From Disorder: Self-Organization In Mammalian Hair Patterning
Hair patterns in mice are controlled by both a global system dependent on Fz6 and a local self-organizing system.
research Learning From Nudity: Lessons From The Nude Phenotype
The Foxn1 gene mutation causes hairlessness and immune system issues, and understanding it could lead to hair growth disorder treatments.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Alopecia Areata: Animal Models Illuminate Autoimmune Pathogenesis and Novel Immunotherapeutic Strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
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 Vitamin D Resistant Rickets With Alopecia: A Form of End Organ Resistance to 1,25 Dihydroxy Vitamin D
A girl with rickets and hair loss was found to have a rare condition where her body didn't respond to vitamin D treatment.
research Pharmacologic Interventions in Aging Hair
Minoxidil and Finasteride are effective for male baldness; more research is needed for hair aging treatments.
research The Role of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Collapse in Alopecia Areata: Status and Perspectives
