Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing patchy hair loss, often with other autoimmune disorders, but its exact causes are unknown.

Researchers developed promising agents for prostate cancer imaging, with the best one showing high potential for clinical use.

Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disease affecting about 2% of people, causing significant disability and often associated with mental health issues and other autoimmune conditions.

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

Skin aging is due to impaired stem cell mobilization or fewer responsive stem cells.

RNAi-based biopesticides could be safe and effective for pest control with careful development and risk assessment.

Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.

K6hf is a unique protein found only in a specific layer of hair follicles.

Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.

The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.

Antibiotics can reduce acne but may lead to resistant bacteria, and understanding the skin's bacteria is important for treatment.

Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.

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

Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.

Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.

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.

Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.

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

Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.

Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.

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

Different PIN proteins affect plant root hair growth by changing how auxin is transported.

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

Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.

Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.

Asia has made significant progress in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but wider clinical use requires more development.

Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.

Modern lifestyles, including poor diet, stress, and long-term use of certain medications, hinder the body's ability to heal from inflammation, leading to chronic diseases.

MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.

Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
