research CRISPR/Cas9-Based Targeted Genome Editing for Correction of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa Using iPS Cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Efficient Genome Editing Using CRISPR/Cas9 Ribonucleoprotein Approach in iPS Cells for Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa
Researchers fixed gene mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice.
research Prostaglandin Related Distinct Regenerative Activities in Hair Follicles Following Radiation Injury
HPV infection is linked to better survival in advanced anal cancer, higher radiation doses improve survival, especially in HPV-negative patients, and prostaglandin E₂ pretreatment can protect mouse hair follicles from radiation damage.
research Activation of the Integrated Stress Response in Human Hair Follicles
Blocking the Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier causes stress in hair follicles, which can be reduced by an ISR inhibitor.
research Lower Proximal Cup Cells But Not Bulge Stem Cells Regenerate Hair Follicles After Chemotherapy Injury
Lower proximal cup cells, not bulge stem cells, regenerate hair follicles after chemotherapy.
research Loose Anagen Hair as a Cause of Hereditary Hair Loss in Children
Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome is a hereditary condition causing hair loss in children due to abnormal hair follicles.
research Follicular Swiss Cheese Pattern: Another Histopathologic Clue to Alopecia Areata
Dilated follicular infundibula and increased catagen/telogen follicles are key indicators for diagnosing alopecia areata.
research Temporary Cell Cycle Arrest in Human Scalp Hair Follicles and Their Epithelial Stem Cells by ALRN-6924: A Novel Strategy to Selectively Protect p53-Wildtype Cells Against Paclitaxel-Induced Alopecia
ALRN-6924 may prevent hair loss caused by chemotherapy.
research Temporary Cell Cycle Arrest by ALRN-6924: A Novel P53-Targeting Strategy to Protect Human Scalp Hair Follicles Against Cyclophosphamide-Induced Alopecia
ALRN-6924 can protect hair follicles from chemotherapy damage by temporarily stopping cell division.
research Male Pattern Alopecia: A Histopathologic and Histochemical Study
Male pattern baldness involves smaller hair follicles, larger oil glands, and other tissue changes, but not major blood supply issues.
research Reflectance Confocal Microscopy of the Yellow Dot Pattern in Alopecia Areata
Reflectance confocal microscopy confirms that yellow dots are signs of damaged hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research Quantitative Models for the Study of Hair Growth In Vivo
The conclusion is that small hair follicles cause baldness in macaques, and treatments like antiandrogens and minoxidil can prevent hair loss and promote regrowth.
research Erbium-Yttrium-Aluminum-Garnet Laser Irradiation Ameliorates Skin Permeation and Follicular Delivery of Antialopecia Drugs
Using a special laser can improve how well hair loss treatments get into the skin and hair follicles.
research Quantification of Hair Follicle Parameters Using Computer Image Analysis: A Comparison of Androgenetic Alopecia with Normal Scalp Biopsies
Hair follicles are smaller in people with androgenetic alopecia compared to those with normal scalps.
research Parathyroid Hormone-Related Peptide and the Hair Cycle: Is It the Agonists or the Antagonists That Cause Hair Growth?
PTHRP agonists can stimulate hair growth, especially in damaged follicles, while antagonists may initially increase growth but ultimately inhibit it.
research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
Different genes are active in dogs' hair growth and skin, similar to humans, which helps understand dog skin and hair diseases and can relate to human conditions.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research Inherited Epidermolysis Bullosa: A Clinical Case
A 37-year-old male with severe skin and internal issues has a rare inherited skin condition called dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa.
research Transepidermal UV Radiation of Human Scalp Skin Induces Distinctive Hair Follicle Damage, Mitigated by Topical Caffeine Treatment
Caffeine can protect scalp hair follicles from damage caused by UV radiation.
research Alopecia Areata: Comprehensive Overview and Histological Characteristics
Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune condition causing varying hair loss, diagnosed by specific patterns of inflammation around hair follicles, with several treatment options available.
research The Histopathology of Alopecia Areata in Vertical and Horizontal Sections
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections are better for diagnosing alopecia areata, showing fewer hair follicles and more miniaturized hairs.
research IL-36α Promoted Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis via Hair Follicle Stem/Progenitor Cell Proliferation
IL-36α helps grow new hair follicles and speeds up wound healing.
research Non-Coding Double-Stranded RNA Induces Retinoic Acid Synthesis and Retinoid Signaling to Control Regeneration
Double-stranded RNA helps regenerate hair follicles by increasing retinoic acid production and signaling.
research The Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata in Rodent Models
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune disease affecting hair follicles, influenced by genetic and environmental factors, with rodent models being essential for research.
