research Regenerative Medicine Approaches for Engineering a Human Hair Follicle
New treatments for hair loss show promise, including plasma, stem cells, and hair-stimulating complexes, but more research is needed to fully understand them.
research Gefitinib: An Adverse Effects Profile
Gefitinib can cause skin problems, diarrhea, and nausea, but rarely causes severe lung disease or hair loss.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Individual Variation in Balance Between Platelet-Secreted Growth Factors Causing Contradictory Effects on Hair Follicle Could Potentially Impact Response to PRP Therapy in Patients With Scalp Hair Loss
People respond differently to hair loss treatment with PRP because of individual differences in growth factors from platelets.
research Scientific Highlights from the Society for Investigative Dermatology 2010 Annual Meeting
The meeting highlighted major advances in skin research, including new findings on skin microbes, genetic links to skin diseases, and improved treatments for various conditions.
research Imaging Nanoscale Changes in Desmosome Protein Organization
Desmoglein 3 organization in cell connections changes without calcium, affecting cell adhesion.
research IL-9 Mediated Human Primary Keratinocytes Invasion Is Dependent on MLC Controlled Contractility and Independent of MMP Activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research Development of an Ex Vivo Human Skin Explant Model to Examine Candidate Gene Functions in the Hair Follicle and Epidermis
The model can effectively test gene functions and drug responses in human skin.
research Elevated Expression of Osteopontin Splice Variants in Nonmelanoma Skin Cancer Compared to Normal Skin and Adult Keratinocytes
Nonmelanoma skin cancers have higher levels of certain osteopontin variants than normal skin.
research Epithelial Stem Cells: Turning Over New Leaves
Epithelial stem cells are crucial for tissue renewal and repair, and understanding them could improve treatments for damage and cancer.
research Adverse Cutaneous Reactions to Antidepressants
Skin reactions to antidepressants are common but usually not serious and can be treated.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research Review of Aseptic Neutrophilic Dermatoses
The review says skin conditions with sterile pustules need more research for better treatments.

research Hair Follicle Reconstruction and Stem Cells
Stem cells could improve hair growth and new treatments for baldness are being researched.
research The Hair Follicle as a Dynamic Mini-Organ
Hair follicles are complex, dynamic mini-organs that help us understand cell growth, death, migration, and differentiation, as well as tissue regeneration and tumor biology.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Laser Hair Removal: Principles, Techniques, and Advances
Laser hair removal is the most requested cosmetic procedure and has become a scientifically-based treatment suitable for all skin types.
research Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Inhibits Epithelial Cell Growth: A Clue to Understanding Paradoxical Effects of Androgen on Human Hair Growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research Gender Differences in Skin: A Review of the Literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Cell Death in the Skin: Mechanisms and Implications
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research Hormonal Regulation of Hair Follicles Exhibits a Biological Paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Melanin Pigmentary Disorders: Treatment Update
Treatments for melanin disorders exist, but more effective options needed.
research Adipocytes in Skin Health and Disease
Fat cells are important for healthy skin, hair growth, and healing, and changes in these cells can affect skin conditions and aging.
