research Detecting the Mechanism Behind the Transition from Fixed Two-Dimensional Patterned Sika Deer (Cervus Nippon) Dermal Papilla Cells to Three-Dimensional Pattern
The study concluded that changing the culture conditions can cause sika deer skin cells to switch from a flat to a 3D pattern, which is important for creating hair follicles.
research Role of the Wnt Signaling Pathway in Keratoacanthoma
The Wnt signaling pathway is not a major factor in the development of keratoacanthoma, a type of skin tumor.
research Knockout of p16INK4a Promotes Aggregative Growth of Dermal Papilla Cells
Removing p16INK4a from skin cells can lead to faster and more clumped growth, which might help with hair growth.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes hair loss, which usually grows back within 3 to 6 months, but there's no effective treatment to prevent it.
research Implications of Neuroimaging for the Treatment of Epilepsy
Neuroimaging suggests that treatments targeting brain steroids could help control epilepsy, especially types linked to the menstrual cycle.
research Characterization of CD4+ Stem Cells of the Skin and Their Role in Skin Homeostasis and Tumorigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research American Society for Laser Medicine and Surgery - 2018 Late-Breaking Abstracts
