research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
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 Probing the Effects of Stress Mediators on the Human Hair Follicle
Stress-related substance P may lead to hair loss and negatively affect hair growth.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Macrophages Induce AKT/β-Catenin-Dependent Lgr5+ Stem Cell Activation and Hair Follicle Regeneration Through TNF
Macrophages help regrow hair by activating stem cells using AKT/β-catenin and TNF.
research The Role of Smads in Skin Development
Smad-4 and Smad-7 are key in hair follicle development, with other Smads being less important.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research Skin Steroidogenesis in Health and Disease
The skin's ability to produce hormones is linked to various skin conditions, and better understanding this process could lead to new treatments.
research Functional Skin Grafts: Where Biomaterials Meet Stem Cells
Advancements in creating skin grafts with biomaterials and stem cells are promising, but more research is needed for clinical application.
research Differences in Expression of Specific Biomarkers Distinguish Human Beard from Scalp Dermal Papilla Cells
Beard and scalp hair cells have different gene expressions, which may affect beard growth characteristics.
research Stimulation of the Follicular Bulge LGR5+ and LGR6+ Stem Cells with the Gut-Derived Human Alpha Defensin 5 Results in Decreased Bacterial Presence, Enhanced Wound Healing, and Hair Growth from Tissues Devoid of Adnexal Structures
Human alpha defensin 5 helps heal wounds, reduce bacteria, and grow hair on burned skin.
research Procyanidin B-2 Extracted from Apples Promotes Hair Growth: A Laboratory Study
Apple extract called procyanidin B-2 was found to greatly increase hair growth.
research Regulation of VDR by ΔNp63α Is Associated with Inhibition of Cell Invasion
ΔNp63α helps control a protein that stops cancer cells from spreading.
research Biphasic Effects of Minoxidil on the Proliferation and Differentiation of Normal Human Keratinocytes
Minoxidil affects cell growth in two ways: low doses increase growth, while high doses slow it down and can be toxic.
research Transepidermal UV Radiation of Scalp Skin Ex Vivo Induces Hair Follicle Damage That Is Alleviated by Topical Treatment with Caffeine
Caffeine applied to the scalp can protect hair follicles from UV damage.
research Immune Cell Regulation of the Hair Cycle
Immune cells affect hair growth and could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research Developing Stratified Epithelia: Lessons from the Epidermis and Thymus
The skin and thymus develop similarly to protect and support immunity.
research A Topical Parathyroid Hormone/Parathyroid Hormone-Related Peptide Receptor Antagonist Stimulates Hair Growth in Mice
A cream with a specific hormone blocker increases hair growth in mice.
research Hes1 Regulates Anagen Initiation and Hair Follicle Regeneration Through Modulation of Hedgehog Signaling
Hes1 protein is important for hair growth and regeneration, and could be a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Immunohistochemical Study of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Regenerated Hair Follicles Induced by Wnt10b
Increasing Wnt10b levels can help grow new hair follicles in mice.
research Narrowband UVB Treatment Induces Expression of WNT7B, WNT10B, and TCF7L2 in Psoriasis Skin
Narrowband UVB treatment increases certain gene expressions in psoriasis skin and improves symptoms.
research Biology of Melanocytes in Mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research The Experimental Study on the Effect of Herbal Extracts on Hair Growth and Acne
Rubus coreanum may help hair growth but not through the tested mechanisms, and none of the herbal extracts help with acne.
research Abstracts
Mice treatments didn't grow hair, a patient treatment may affect immune response, and people with hair loss often feel anxious or depressed.
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 Minoxidil: Mechanisms of Action on Hair Growth
Minoxidil boosts hair growth by opening potassium channels and increasing cell activity.
research The Cutaneous Serotoninergic/Melatoninergic System: Securing a Place Under the Sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Skin Wound Healing in Humans and Mice: Challenges in Translational Research
The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
research A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology: The Role of TRPV1 in Human Hair Growth Control
