Hair stem cell regeneration is controlled by signals that can explain different hair growth patterns and baldness.

Androgens can cause hair growth in some areas and hair loss on the scalp.

K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.

Human dermal fibroblasts are the main cells targeted by a virus that can cause a deadly skin cancer, and a certain inhibitor can effectively block this infection.

Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.

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.

The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.

Mice hair growth patterns get more complex with age and can change with events like pregnancy or injury.

Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.

Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.

Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.

The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.

Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.

Manipulating the catagen and telogen phases of hair growth could lead to treatments for hair disorders.

Formyl-peptide receptor agonists could be new anti-inflammatory drugs.

Skin surface lipids are important for skin health and altering them could help prevent aging and treat skin conditions.

FGF signaling is a promising target for developing treatments for wounds, metabolic diseases, and cancer.

A mother's PPARγ is crucial for preventing harmful milk that can cause inflammation and growth problems in babies.

Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.

The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.

Mutations in the PADI3 gene are linked to a higher risk of scarring hair loss in women of African descent.

Researchers identified genes linked to coat color, body size, cashmere production, and high altitude adaptation in goats.

Women with PCOS may take longer to get pregnant but can have a normal family size, and should manage their overall health to reduce long-term health risks.

Blocking β-catenin in skin cells improves hair growth during wound healing.

The document concludes that diagnosing and treating Human African Trypanosomiasis is challenging, but new treatments like fexinidazole are promising.

The article concludes that better understanding gene regulation related to seasonal changes can offer insights into the mechanisms of seasonal timing in mammals.

Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.

The document concludes that understanding sulfation biology is crucial for creating treatments due to its importance in biological functions and disease.

Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.

White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
