research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
research Alopecia Areata: A Multifactorial Autoimmune Condition
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.
research Protoporphyrin IX: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Protoporphyrin IX is useful in cancer treatment but can cause health problems if not properly regulated.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research Alopecia Areata: Pathogenesis And Treatment
No single treatment is consistently effective for alopecia areata, and more research is needed.
research Extraskeletal Actions of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Acne: Hormonal Concepts and Therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Sex Differences in SARS-CoV-2 Infection Rates and the Potential Link to Prostate Cancer
Men, especially older ones with health issues like prostate cancer, may have worse COVID-19 outcomes and could benefit from therapies targeting male hormones.
research Group-ICA Model Order Highlights Patterns of Functional Brain Connectivity
Choosing the right model order in brain connectivity analysis can affect the detection of differences between healthy individuals and those with seasonal affective disorder.
research Melatonin and the Hair Follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.
research Human Hair Follicles Contain Two Forms of ATP-Sensitive Potassium Channels, Only One Sensitive to Minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Acne-Associated Syndromes: Models for Better Understanding of Acne Pathogenesis
The document concludes that certain genetic mutations and dietary factors are involved in acne development, and treatments like isotretinoin and diet changes can help manage it.
research WNT10A Mutation Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia by Impairing Progenitor Cell Proliferation and KLF4-Mediated Differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
research Inherited Ichthyoses: Generalized Mendelian Disorders of Cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research White Lupin Cluster Root Acclimation to Phosphorus Deficiency and Root Hair Development Involve Unique Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases
White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
research Ferreting Out Stem Cells From Their Niches
New methods have greatly improved our understanding of stem cell behavior and roles in the body.
research Therapeutic Strategy for Hair Regeneration: Hair Cycle Activation, Niche Environment Modulation, Wound-Induced Follicle Neogenesis, and Stem Cell Engineering
The conclusion is that hair growth can be improved by activating hair cycles, changing the surrounding environment, healing wounds to create new hair follicles, and using stem cell technology.
research Thyrotropin Releasing Hormone: A New Player in Human Hair Growth Control
TRH stimulates human hair growth and extends the hair growth phase.
research Acne as a Chronic Systemic Disease
Acne is a chronic disease linked to various systemic conditions and has significant psychological and social effects.
research Human Hair Follicles Are an Extrarenal Source and a Nonhematopoietic Target of Erythropoietin
