research Stem Cells and the Skin
Stem cells can rejuvenate skin, restore hair, and aid in wound healing.
research Immunopathology of the Human Hair Follicle
The document concludes that immune system abnormalities cause alopecia areata, but the exact process is still not completely understood.
research Human Hair Follicle: Reservoir Function and Selective Targeting
The human hair follicle can store topical compounds and be targeted for drug delivery with minimal side effects.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
The skin is the largest organ, protecting the body, regulating temperature, and producing hormones.
research Keratin and Skin Disorders
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Non-Psoralen Treatment of Vitiligo. Part II. Less Commonly Used and Experimental Therapies
Some alternative vitiligo treatments show promise, but none are as effective as psoralens and UVA.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research All Roads Lead to the Nucleus: Integration of Signaling, Transcription Factor-Mediated, and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in the Control of Skin Development and Regeneration
The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.
research In Vitro Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interaction Facilitates De Novo Hair Follicle Formation
Adult skin cells can be used to create new hair in a lab.
research Regional Differences in Scalp Innervation: A Pilot Study of the Healthy Scalp
The back of the scalp has more nerve fibers than the front, which may explain why some people feel more sensitivity there.
research Scratching the Surface of Skin Development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Cutaneous Adverse Effects of Targeted Therapies
Targeted cancer therapies often cause serious skin problems that need careful management.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Regenerating the Skin: A Task for the Heterogeneous Stem Cell Pool and Surrounding Niche
Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.
research Modulation of Hair Growth with Small Molecule Agonists of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway
Applying a special compound can promote hair growth without harmful side effects.
research Effects of Epidermal Growth Factor on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research Cutaneous Reactions to Chemotherapeutic Drugs and Targeted Therapy for Cancer
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin reactions, so dermatologists must manage these effects.
research Reversing Wrinkled Skin and Hair Loss in Mice by Restoring Mitochondrial Function
Restoring mitochondrial function in mice reversed their skin wrinkling and hair loss.
research Inductive Properties of Hair Follicle Cells
Hair growth can be induced by certain cells found at the base of hair follicles, and these cells may also influence hair development and regeneration.
