research The Eyelash Comes to the Fore: Significance in Aesthetics and Eye Protection
Eyelashes are important for looks and eye protection, and more people are treating sparse eyelashes; more research is needed to understand eyelash biology and improve treatments.
research Developmental Mechanisms Controlling Cell Fate Evolution
The conclusion is that grasping how cells determine their roles through evolution is key, with expected progress from new research models and genome editing.
research Mucocutaneous Manifestations of Endocrine Disorders
Skin symptoms can indicate endocrine disorders and have various treatments.
research What Amount of Hair Do Women Want?
Women generally want more hair volume, which becomes a concern around menopause due to hair loss.
research Evaluation of Hair Follicles as a Surrogate Tissue for Pharmacodynamic Response in Xenograft Tumors
Hair follicles can be used to quickly assess drug effects in cancer treatment.
research Editors' Picks
Scientists found gene mutations that affect hair loss, skin stem cells, and skin disorders, and identified drugs that may help treat blood vessel and skin conditions.
research Australasian Society for Dermatology Research Meeting, May 2007
The document suggests a bacteria plays a significant role in acne rosacea and that white hair can regain color after transplant, meriting more research on reversing grey hair.
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 Alopecia Areata Update
Half of people with Alopecia Areata may see hair regrowth within a year without treatment, but recovery is unpredictable.
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 Long-Term Renewal of Hair Follicles from Clonogenic Multipotent Stem Cells
Adult stem cells from rat whisker follicles can regenerate hair follicles and sebaceous glands.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research A Family Business: Stem Cell Progeny Join the Niche to Regulate Homeostasis
Stem cell offspring help control their parent stem cells, affecting tissue health, healing, and cancer.
research Biomaterials Functionalized with MSC Secreted Extracellular Vesicles and Soluble Factors for Tissue Regeneration
Biomaterials with MSC-derived substances could improve tissue repair and have advantages over direct cell therapy.
research Lactate Dehydrogenase Activity Drives Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.
research APCDD1 Is a Novel Wnt Inhibitor Mutated in Hereditary Hypotrichosis Simplex
A gene called APCDD1, which controls hair growth, is found to be faulty in a type of hair loss called hereditary hypotrichosis simplex.
research Genome-Wide Maps of Histone Modifications Unwind In Vivo Chromatin States of the Hair Follicle Lineage
Hair follicle stem cells use specific chromatin changes to control their growth and differentiation.
research Cis-Element and Transcriptome-Based Screening of Root Hair-Specific Genes and Their Functional Characterization in Arabidopsis
Researchers found 19 genes important for root hair growth in a plant called Arabidopsis.
research Tissue Engineering of Human Hair Follicles Using a Biomimetic Developmental Approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Skin Aging and Menopause: Implications for Treatment
Menopause can lead to skin and hair problems due to hormonal changes, but hormone replacement therapy might help slow these effects.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Overview of Common, Rare, and Atypical Manifestations of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus and Histopathological Correlates
The document concludes that recognizing and treating cutaneous lupus erythematosus early is crucial for managing the skin and potential systemic symptoms.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Fibroblasts and Wound Healing: An Update
Understanding different types of skin cells, especially fibroblasts, can lead to better treatments for wound healing and less scarring.
research Hedgehog Stimulates Hair Follicle Neogenesis by Creating Inductive Dermis During Murine Skin Wound Healing
The Sonic hedgehog pathway is crucial for new hair growth during mouse skin healing.
research Cutting Edge: Memory Regulatory T Cells Require IL-7 and Not IL-2 for Their Maintenance in Peripheral Tissues
Memory regulatory T cells need IL-7, not IL-2, to stay in peripheral tissues.
research Hairless Triggers Reactivation of Hair Growth by Promoting Wnt Signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
research Hair Growth Stimulated by Conditioned Medium of Adipose-Derived Stem Cells Is Enhanced by Hypoxia: Evidence of Increased Growth Factor Secretion
Low oxygen conditions increase the hair-growing effects of substances from fat-derived stem cells by boosting growth factor release.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
