research Identification of a Secreted BMP Antagonist, Ectodin, Integrating BMP, FGF, and SHH Signals from the Tooth Enamel Knot
Ectodin integrates BMP, SHH, and FGF signals in developing ectodermal organs.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Epithelial Differentiation and Epithelial-Mesenchymal Transition
The TGF-β family helps control how cells change and move, affecting skin, hair, and organ development.
research Secreted Frizzled-Related Protein 4 Inhibits the Regeneration of Hair Follicles
A protein called sFRP4 can slow down hair regrowth.
research Bone Morphogenetic Protein Signaling Regulates the Size of Hair Follicles and Modulates the Expression of Cell Cycle-Associated Genes
BMP signaling controls hair follicle size and cell growth by affecting cell cycle genes.
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 Pharmacotherapy for Keloids and Hypertrophic Scars
Combination pharmacotherapy is generally more effective for treating keloids and hypertrophic scars.
research Transforming Growth Factor-Beta in Stem Cells and Tissue Homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research The Harmonies Played by TGF-β in Stem Cell Biology
TGF-β is crucial for controlling stem cell behavior and changes in its signaling can lead to diseases like cancer.
research Gene Expression Profiling of the Intact Dermal Sheath Cup of Human Hair Follicles
Researchers found specific genes in the part of hair follicles that could help treat hair disorders.
research Expression and Functional Relevance of Melatonin Receptors in Hair Follicle Biology
Melatonin receptors in hair follicles help regulate hair growth and could treat hair loss.
research How Does Altered Metabolism Lead to Seizure Control? Partially Filling the Knowledge Gap
Altered metabolism can help control seizures by changing brain signaling and energy use, suggesting new treatments for epilepsy.
research The Role of Dexamethasone in Mediating the Contradictory Effects of Wnt Antagonists SFRP2 and SFRP3 on Human Hair Follicle Growth
Dexamethasone affects hair growth by altering levels of proteins that either promote or inhibit hair follicle growth.
research Anti-Wrinkle Effect of Bone Morphogenetic Protein Receptor 1a Extracellular Domain (BMPR1a-ECD)
BMPR1a-ECD reduces wrinkles much more effectively than retinoic acid.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Prolactin: An Emerging Force Along the Cutaneous–Endocrine Axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research Hypertension and Aldosterone Levels in Women with Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Women with early hair loss have higher blood pressure and aldosterone; screening and treatment may help.
research The Role of Immature and Mature Adipocytes in Hair Cycling
Both immature and mature fat cells are important for hair growth cycles, with immature cells promoting growth and mature cells possibly inhibiting it.
research A Bald Statement: Current Approaches to Manipulate Miniaturization Focus Only on Promoting Hair Growth
The conclusion is that future hair loss treatments should target the root causes of hair thinning, not just promote hair growth.
research CCN2 Modulates Hair Follicle Cycling in Mice
The protein CCN2 controls hair growth by affecting hair follicle formation and stem cell activity in mice.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Combing the Hair Follicle Signaling Pathways for New Therapeutic Targets and More Effective Treatment Options
New treatments for hair loss may target specific pathways and generate new hair follicles.
research Hair Restoration in Androgenetic Alopecia: Looking Beyond Minoxidil, Finasteride, and Hair Transplantation
Alternative treatments show promise for hair growth beyond traditional methods.
research Experimental and Early Investigational Drugs for Androgenetic Alopecia
New hair loss treatments may include topical medications, injections, and improved transplant methods.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.
research Nociceptive and Non-Nociceptive Roles of TRPV3 and Its Druggability
TRPV3 could be a target for treating pain, skin disorders, and hair problems, but more research is needed to create effective drugs.
research LPA3, A Unique G Protein-Coupled Receptor For Lysophosphatidic Acid
LPA3 is crucial for embryo implantation and links LPA to prostaglandin signaling.
research Cutaneous Manifestations in Biologically Treated Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients: A Narrative Review
Biologic treatments for Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis can cause skin problems, and doctors should adjust treatment if these occur.
