research Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy as a Tool for the Investigation of Skin Drug Delivery Systems and Diagnosis of Skin Disorders
Confocal Laser Scanning Microscopy (CLSM) is a useful tool for studying how drugs interact with skin and diagnosing skin disorders, despite some limitations.
research Rice Derivatives in Hair Protection
Rice derivatives in conditioners protect and improve hair health.
research Vitamin D Receptor: Molecular Signaling and Actions of Nutritional Ligands in Disease Prevention
Vitamin D receptor interacts with certain dietary components to help prevent diseases and regulate hair growth.
research Modulating the Stem Cell Niche for Tissue Regeneration
Changing the environment around stem cells could help tissue repair, but it's hard to be precise and avoid side effects.
research Oxidative Stress in Aging of Hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Progesterone Enhances Ethanol-Induced Modulation of Mesocortical Dopamine Neurons: Antagonism by Finasteride
Progesterone boosts alcohol's effect on brain, finasteride counters it.
research Current Understanding of the Pathways Involved in Adult Stem and Progenitor Cell Migration for Tissue Homeostasis and Repair
The document concludes that understanding how adult stem and progenitor cells move is crucial for tissue repair and developing cell therapies.
research Evaluation of Wavelength-Dependent Hair Growth Effects on Low-Level Laser Therapy: An Experimental Animal Study
The 830-nm wavelength was most effective at promoting hair growth in rats using low-level laser therapy.
research Aging Skin: A Window to the Body
Skin aging reflects overall body aging and can indicate internal health conditions.
research Skin Biology: Understanding Biological Targets for Improving Appearance
The document concludes that a deeper understanding of skin aging and photodamage is needed to create better skin treatments.
research Cell Death as an Architect of Adult Skin Stem Cell Niches
Cell death shapes skin stem cell environments, affecting inflammation, repair, and cancer.
research The Possible Association of Female Pattern Hair Loss and Alteration in Serum Cholecalciferol Level
Low vitamin D levels can significantly contribute to hair loss, especially in women aged 35-45. Correcting these levels early may help prevent and treat this condition.
research Melatonin in the Skin: Synthesis, Metabolism, and Functions
Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.
research Effects of Visible Light on the Skin
Visible light can damage skin and most sunscreens don't block it well; more research is needed on its effects and protection methods.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research The Role of Melatonin in Neuroectodermal-Mesodermal Interactions: The Hair Follicle Synthesizes Melatonin and Expresses Functional Melatonin Receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Ultraviolet Radiation in Wound Care: Sterilization and Stimulation
UV radiation can help sterilize wounds and promote healing but requires careful use to avoid damaging cells.
research Surface Lipids as Multifunctional Mediators of Skin Responses to Environmental Stimuli
Skin surface lipids are important for skin health and altering them could help prevent aging and treat skin conditions.
research Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.
research Aging of the Hair Follicle Pigmentation System
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Oxidative Stress and Autoimmune Skin Disease
Antioxidants may help fight oxidative stress linked to autoimmune skin diseases.
research Treatments for Androgenetic Alopecia and Alopecia Areata
Minoxidil and finasteride treat hair loss; more research needed for other options.
research Is Androgenetic Alopecia a Photoaggravated Dermatosis?
Sunlight worsens hair loss; protect scalp.
research Low-Level Laser Therapy and Hair Regrowth: An Evidence-Based Review
Low-level laser therapy is safe and can increase hair growth for male and female pattern hair loss.
research Topical Application of a Protein Kinase C Inhibitor Reduces Skin and Hair Pigmentation
Applying a specific inhibitor lightens skin and hair color.
research The Impact of Oxidative Stress on Hair
Oxidative stress damages hair and contributes to aging, and managing it can help maintain hair health.
research Reflections on How Wound Healing-Promoting Effects of the Hair Follicle Can Be Translated into Clinical Practice
Hair follicles can help wounds heal faster and this knowledge could be used to treat chronic skin ulcers, with a potential use of a special stem cell hydrogel to enhance healing.
research Autophagy Is Essential for Maintaining the Growth of a Human Mini-Organ: Evidence from Scalp Hair Follicle Organ Culture
Autophagy is important for human hair growth and health.
research Ultraviolet B Preconditioning Enhances the Hair Growth-Promoting Effects of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Via Generation of Reactive Oxygen Species
Low-dose UVB light improves hair growth effects of certain stem cells by increasing reactive oxygen species.
