This study found that hair follicle mesenchymal stem cells improved liver function and pathology in a mouse model of liver cirrhosis, potentially by inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad pathway and reducing hepatic stellate cell activation.

This study by Dr. Manka and colleagues reported that thyroid hormones play a significant role in regulating hepatic stellate cells, influencing liver fibrosis progression via TGFβ signaling. They found that TRα signaling might enhance scar-free tissue regeneration, offering potential pathways for targeted liver fibrosis treatments.

This study observed that radiation exposure in male rats activated hepatic stellate cells and the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway, mediated by TGF-β1, contributing to liver injury, while the use of a signaling pathway inhibitor reduced these effects.

This study reported the development of new pyrazole-based MPC inhibitors that effectively inhibit mitochondrial pyruvate transport, showing potential as therapeutic candidates for conditions like metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis without activating PPARγ.

This review highlights the potential of targeting hepatic stellate cell ferroptosis as a treatment strategy for liver fibrosis, underscoring the need for further research into ferroptosis mechanisms in these cells to better understand and combat this condition.

In this study, researchers found that hair follicle-derived mesenchymal stem cells, modified to overexpress extracellular matrix protein 1, significantly improved liver function and reduced liver damage in cirrhotic mice by inhibiting hepatic stellate cell activation and TGF-β/Smad signaling.

In this study, KeraGLO, a nutritional supplement with hydrolyzed keratin, was shown to significantly improve skin wrinkle depth, smoothness, moisture, firmness, and hair health in healthy adult females over a 90-day period at both 500mg and 1000mg doses compared to baseline.

This study demonstrated that elevated glucocorticoid levels in transgenic mice led to pancreatic exocrine cells transforming into hepatocyte-like cells, resulting in pancreatic dysfunction.

The study suggests that integrin β1 is crucial for maintaining liver microstructure and its absence may promote fibrosis by disrupting hepatocyte-extracellular matrix interactions and increasing TGF-β secretion.
