510-540 / 1000+ results research Vibrissa Hair Bulge Houses Two Populations of Skin Epithelial Stem Cells Distinct by Their Keratin Profile
There are two types of stem cells in rodent hair follicles, each with different keratin proteins.
research A Novel Approach to Manage Skin Toxicity Caused by Therapeutic Agents Targeting Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
New treatment with green tea polyphenols and nicotinamide improves skin problems from cancer therapy.
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 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 Integration of Magnetic Tweezers and Traction Force Microscopy for Exploring the Mechanobiology of Keratinocyte Cell-Cell and Cell-Matrix Anchoring Junctions
The conclusion is that a new method combining magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy may help understand skin cell interactions and diseases.
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 Deciphering the Role of the Hexosamine Pathway in Skin Homeostasis
The hexosamine pathway helps protect skin cells from stress and may improve skin and hair health.
research Hair Follicle Aging Is Driven by Transepidermal Elimination of Stem Cells via COL17A1 Proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation
Loss of keratin K2 causes skin problems and inflammation.
research The Use of Polyethylenimine–DNA to Topically Deliver hTERT to Promote Hair Growth
Using polyethylenimine-DNA to deliver the hTERT gene can stimulate hair growth and may be useful in treating hair loss, but there could be potential cancer risks.
research CCL5 Affects the Hair-Inductive Capacity of Three-Dimensional Cultured Dermal Papilla Cells
CCL5 is important for the hair growth potential of human dermal papilla cells.
research Dysfunction of Hair Follicle Mesenchymal Progenitors Is Associated with Age-Related Hair Loss
Age-related hair loss is linked to the decline and dysfunction of hair follicle stem cells.
research Topical Application of Newly Developed Pseudoceramide Improved Both Skin and Hair Barrier Functions
Applying pseudoceramide improved skin and hair health.
research Building a Functional Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Deleting the CRIF1 gene in mice disrupts skin and hair formation, certain proteins affect hair growth, a new compound may improve skin and hair health, blood cell-derived stem cells can create skin-like structures, and hair follicle stem cells come from embryonic cells needing specific signals for development.
research Estrogen Induces VEGF Expression in Dermal Papilla Cells
Estrogen increases a growth factor in hair cells which might affect hair loss.
research Human Hair Follicle Regeneration With Trichogenic Human Dermal Papilla Precursor Cells Derived From Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Stem cells can create hair follicles, potentially treating permanent hair loss, and healthy skin and hair depend on mitochondrial function and special fats.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Early Inductive Events in Ectodermal Appendage Morphogenesis
Early development of hair, teeth, and glands involves specific signaling pathways and cellular interactions.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration Using Grafted Rodent and Human Cells
Grafted rodent and human cells can regenerate hair follicles, but efficiency decreases with age.
research Self-Organization Process in Newborn Skin Organoid Formation Inspires Strategy to Restore Hair Regeneration of Adult Cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Pathways to Inflammation: Acne Pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone Promotes Wound Re-Epithelialisation in Frog and Human Skin
Thyrotropin-Releasing Hormone helps heal wounds in frog and human skin.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Development, Formulation, and Characterization of an Adapalene-Loaded Solid Lipid Microparticle Dispersion for Follicular Penetration
