research A Hybrid Hydrogel Encapsulating Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cells Enhances Diabetic Wound Healing
A new hydrogel with stem cells from the human umbilical cord speeds up healing in diabetic wounds.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cell Progeny Heal Blisters While Pausing Skin Development
When skin blisters, healing the wound is more important than growing hair, and certain stem cells mainly fix the blisters without helping hair growth.
research Sensory Reinnervation of Human Skin by Human Neural Stem Cell-Derived Peripheral Neurons Ex Vivo
Human skin can be reconnected to nerves using stem cells, which may help with skin health and healing.
research LncRNA2919 Suppresses Rabbit Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation via Trans-Regulatory Actions
lncRNA2919 slows down rabbit hair growth by stopping cell growth and causing cell death.
research Improved Humoral Immunity and Protection Against Influenza Virus Infection With a 3D Porous Biomaterial Vaccine
A new vaccine using a porous scaffold boosts immunity and protects against the flu better than traditional methods.
research Crosstalk Between Endothelial Cells and Dermal Papilla Entails Hair Regeneration and Angiogenesis During Aging
Communication between blood vessel and hair follicle cells decreases with age, affecting hair growth and blood vessel formation.
research Human Fibroblast-Derived Matrix Hydrogel Accelerates Regenerative Wound Remodeling Through Interactions With Macrophages
A new hydrogel made from human cells improves wound healing by working with immune cells to promote repair.
research Nanotechnology-Based Techniques for Hair Follicle Regeneration
Nanotechnology could improve hair regrowth but faces challenges like complexity and safety concerns.
research Life Sciences Discovery And Technology Highlights
New technologies show promise in healing wounds, treating cancer, autoimmune diseases, and genetic disorders.
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 Dermal Papilla Cell-Derived Exosomes Regulate Hair Follicle Stem Cell Proliferation via LEF1
Exosomes from skin cells can boost hair growth by stimulating a gene called LEF1.
research Penetration of Drugs Through Skin: A Complex Rate-Controlling Membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Bioengineering Skin Using Mechanisms of Regeneration and Repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research The Role of 3Rs in the Age of One Health: Where We Are and Where We’re Going
Innovative methods are reducing animal testing and improving biomedical research.
research Expression of Plectin-1 and Trichohyalin in Human Tongue Cancer Cells
Tongue cancer cells show more plectin-1 than non-cancer cells, but both have similar levels of trichohyalin.
research Smart Microneedles for Therapy and Diagnosis
Microneedle technology has advanced for painless drug delivery and sensitive detection but faces a gap between experimental use and clinical needs.
research Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide, Whose Receptor-Mediated Signaling May Be Defective in Alopecia Areata, Provides Protection from Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Collapse
A substance called VIP might protect hair follicles from being attacked by the immune system, and problems with VIP signaling could lead to hair loss in alopecia areata.
