CD98hc's role in skin health decreases with age.
research Origin, Clinical Presentation, and Diagnosis of Facial Hypermelanoses
Facial dark spots can be caused by the sun, genetics, makeup, or medicine, and are diagnosed by patient history and skin tests.
research Electrospun Fibrous Sponge via Short Fiber for Mimicking 3D Extracellular Matrix
The 3D electrospun fibrous sponge is promising for tissue repair and healing diabetic wounds.
research Cell Cycle Regulation and Regeneration
Mice that can regenerate tissue have cells that pause in the cell cycle, which is important for healing, similar to axolotls.
research Changes in Distribution Pattern of CD8 Lymphocytes in the Scalp in Alopecia Areata During Treatment With Diphenylcyclopropenone
Diphencyprone treatment increases CD8 lymphocytes in the scalp, which is associated with hair regrowth in alopecia areata patients.
research Artificial Skin for Wound Healing
Artificial skin is improving wound healing and shows potential for treating different types of wounds.
research Molecular Genetics of Keratinization Disorders: What's New About Ichthyosis
Over 67 genes linked to ichthyosis help improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Skin and Glucocorticoids: Effects of Local Skin Glucocorticoid Impairment on Skin Homeostasis
Local skin glucocorticoid production is crucial for healthy skin, and its disruption can lead to skin diseases.
research CD133-Positive Dermal Papilla-Derived Wnt Ligands Regulate Postnatal Hair Growth
Wnt proteins from certain skin cells are crucial for normal hair growth and renewal.
research The Role of P-Cadherin in Skin Biology and Pathology: Lessons from the Hair Follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research The Arrector Pili Muscle: The Bridge Between the Follicular Stem Cell Niche and the Interfollicular Epidermis
The study suggests that the arrector pili muscle is important for hair health and its damage might contribute to hair loss.
research The Physical and Physiological Effects of Vacuum Massage on Different Skin Layers: Current Literature Status
Vacuum massage may improve skin elasticity and induce changes in skin cells, but evidence for treating burn scars is insufficient and more research is needed.
research Fetal Wound Healing Using a Genetically Modified Murine Model: The Contribution of P-Selectin
P-selectin is not the only factor that prevents scarring in fetal wound healing in mice.
research Unraveling the Link Between Ectodermal Disorders and Primary Immunodeficiencies

research CD99 Is Strongly Expressed in Basal Cells of the Normal Adult Epidermis and Some Subpopulations of Appendages: Comparison with Developing Fetal Skin
CD99 is highly present in certain skin cells and could help treat skin conditions.
research Expression Patterns of Gli-1, Pleckstrin Homology-Like Domain, Family A, Member 1, Transforming Growth Factor-β1/β2, and p63 in Sebaceous and Follicular Tumors
The research suggests that p63 and TGF-β1 may help determine tumor type and malignancy in hair follicle and sebaceous tumors.
research Adipose and Hair Function: An Apparent Connection
Fat tissue and a specific protein are crucial for healthy hair growth and maintenance.
research Secretory Phospholipase A2-IIA Overexpressing Mice Exhibit Cyclic Alopecia Mediated Through Aberrant Hair Shaft Differentiation and Impaired Wound Healing Response
Mice with too much sPLA₂-IIA have hair loss and poor wound healing due to abnormal hair growth and stem cell depletion.
research Integrin α3β1 in Hair Bulge Stem Cells Modulates CCN2 Expression and Promotes Skin Tumorigenesis
Removing integrin α3β1 from hair stem cells lowers skin tumor growth by affecting CCN2 protein levels.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Alopecia Areata: Intradermal Injection Versus Topical Application with Transepidermal Delivery via Either Fractional Carbon Dioxide Laser or Microneedling
