research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.

Lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia are likely the same disease with different clinical appearances.
research Primary Scarring Alopecias: Review of Histopathological Findings of 37 Patients from the Department of Dermatology at the Hospital das Clínicas, Faculty of Medicine, University of São Paulo from 2000 to 2005
Accurate diagnosis of cicatricial alopecias requires thorough scalp examination and multiple biopsy techniques.
research Penetration Profile of Microspheres in Follicular Targeting of Terminal Hair Follicles
Microspheres about 1.5 micrometers in size can best penetrate hair follicles, potentially reaching important stem cells.
research The Follicular Skin Microbiome in Patients With Hidradenitis Suppurativa and Healthy Controls
Patients with hidradenitis suppurativa have a different skin microbiome compared to healthy people.
research Dermal Papilla Cell Number Specifies Hair Size, Shape, and Cycling, and Its Reduction Causes Follicular Decline
More dermal papilla cells in hair follicles lead to larger, healthier hair, while fewer cells cause hair thinning and loss.
research Follicular Transport Route: Research Progress and Future Perspectives
Hair follicles help absorb and store topical compounds, aiding targeted drug delivery.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Follicular and Epidermal Alterations in Patients Treated with ZD1839 (Iressa), an Inhibitor of the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor
ZD1839 (Iressa) causes skin and hair side effects, treatable with tretinoin cream and minocycline.
research Follicular Unit Extraction: Minimally Invasive Surgery for Hair Transplantation
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a less invasive hair transplant method with minimal scarring, suitable for about 60% of patients, especially those needing fewer grafts and quicker recovery.
research Measuring Reversal of Hair Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia by Follicular Counts in Horizontal Sections of Serial Scalp Biopsies: Results of Finasteride 1mg Treatment of Men and Postmenopausal Women
Finasteride 1mg helps reverse hair miniaturization in men and postmenopausal women.
research Follicular Targeting: A Promising Tool in Selective Dermatotherapy
Targeting hair follicles can improve skin treatments and reduce side effects.
research Influence of Prostaglandin F2α and Its Analogues on Hair Regrowth and Follicular Melanogenesis in a Murine Model
Prostaglandin F2alpha and related compounds can increase hair growth and darken hair in mice.
research Follicular Miniaturization in Female Pattern Hair Loss: Clinicopathological Correlations
Hair loss severity relates to increased miniaturization in female pattern hair loss.
research Follicular Delivery of Spironolactone via Nanostructured Lipid Carriers for Management of Alopecia
Using nanostructured lipid carriers to deliver spironolactone could improve treatment for hair loss.
research Distribution of Human Hair in Follicular Units
The research found that for a typical hair density, about 11 square centimeters of donor scalp is needed to get 800 hair grafts for transplantation.
research Simple and Rapid Method to Isolate and Culture Follicular Papillae from Human Scalp Hair Follicles
