The skin is a large organ that plays a role in the immune system.

Lipedema is a painful fat disorder in women that's hard to treat, often worsens with hormonal changes, and requires symptom-focused therapies.

Hormones and signaling pathways control sebaceous gland function and could help treat acne.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease where T cells attack hair follicles.

Human skin acts like a hormone-producing organ, making and managing various hormones important for skin and hair health.

Stress may contribute to hair loss in alopecia areata by affecting immune responses and cell death in hair follicles.

Sweat hypersensitivity can cause severe skin issues in horses.

BMP4 helps stem cells turn into pigment-producing cells, affecting hair color and growth.

Skin organoids help improve wound healing and tissue repair.

Certain gene variations and different levels of BDNF and CRH hormones are linked to vitiligo.

Epidermal stem cells use integrin β1 and α6 as markers and CD271+ cells help maintain skin health and heal wounds.

Recombinant human epidermal growth factor is versatile, effective, and safe for long-term skin and mucosal treatments.

Hair follicle stem cells can turn into many cell types and may help repair nerve damage and have other medical uses.

Stem cells are crucial for skin repair and new treatments for chronic wounds.

Different types of stem cells and their environments are key to skin repair and maintenance.

House fly larvae substances improve wound healing and skin regeneration, especially in immunosuppressed mice.

Not having enough or having too much of the protein Grainyhead-like 3 leads to various developmental problems.

The skin is vital for protection, temperature control, fluid balance, immunity, and sensing, with damage affecting daily life and mental health.

A woman had skin and hair issues after a botulinum toxin injection.

Some medications can improve skin conditions, while lifestyle factors like smoking and drinking may worsen them; treatments like monoclonal antibodies and imiquimod cream show promise for certain skin diseases.

HAP stem cells can repair nerves, grow hair follicle nerves, and become heart muscle cells, making them useful for regenerative medicine.

Adult mouse skin contains stem cells that can create new hair, skin, and oil glands.

Radiation therapy damages skin structure and immune function, causing inflammation and potential hair loss.

Skin CT can help diagnose rosacea by identifying specific skin features, but should be used with clinical signs to avoid misdiagnosis.

Thyroid disease can cause skin, hair, and nail problems, and treating the thyroid condition often improves these symptoms.

Oxytocin receptors are found in skin cells near touch and pain neurons.

Transplanted whisker follicles caused hair growth on the spine of mice.

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.

Tiny particles called extracellular vesicles could help with skin healing and hair growth, but more research is needed.
