research Effect of Estrogens on Skin Aging and the Potential Role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Towards Dissecting the Pathogenesis of Retinoid-Induced Hair Loss: All-Trans Retinoic Acid Induces Premature Hair Follicle Regression by Upregulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β2 in the Dermal Papilla
All-trans retinoic acid causes hair loss by increasing TGF-β2 in hair follicle cells.
research Identification of Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 Derived from Dermal Papilla Cells as a Key Mediator in Androgenetic Alopecia
TGF-β1 from dermal papilla cells suppresses hair growth, and targeting it may help treat androgenetic alopecia.
research Endocrine Influences on Hair Growth
Hormones and genetics affect hair growth and patterns, with some changes reversible and others not.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Does Prolactin Play a Role in Skin Biology and Pathology?
Prolactin may be important for skin growth and immune function.
research As a Carrier–Transporter for Hair Follicle Reconstitution, Platelet-Rich Plasma Promotes Proliferation and Induction of Mouse Dermal Papilla Cells
Platelet-rich plasma can help grow more mouse hair follicles, but it doesn't work for human hair follicles yet.
research Clinical and Microscopic Features of Generalized Discoid Lupus Erythematosus in Dogs (10 Cases)
Dogs with generalized discoid lupus erythematosus have similar symptoms to humans and need continuous treatment.
research Induction of De Novo Hair Regeneration in Scars After Fractionated Carbon Dioxide Laser Therapy in Three Patients
Laser therapy helped new hair grow in scarred skin for three patients.
research Hair Matrix Cell Kinetics: A Selective Review
Hair growth is influenced by factors like genetics and nutrition, and more research is needed to understand hair loss and growth mechanisms.
research 5α-Reductase Inhibitors: A New Hope in Dermatology?
Finasteride shows promise for treating hair loss and excessive hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.
research Glutamic Acid Promotes Hair Growth in Mice
Glutamic acid helps increase hair growth in mice.
research Animal Models of Alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
Different genes are active in dogs' hair growth and skin, similar to humans, which helps understand dog skin and hair diseases and can relate to human conditions.
research Differential Expression of mTOR Signaling Pathway Proteins in Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia
The mTOR pathway proteins are altered in the hair follicles of patients with Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.
research Hair-Cycle Dependent Differential Expression of ADAM 10 and ADAM 12
ADAM 10 and ADAM 12 proteins are involved in different stages of hair growth and could be targets for treating hair disorders.
research 11β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase Type 1 Inhibition Attenuates the Adverse Effects of Glucocorticoids on Dermal Papilla Cells
Blocking a specific enzyme can reduce the negative impact of stress hormones on hair growth cells.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Scientific Highlights from the Society for Investigative Dermatology 2010 Annual Meeting
The meeting highlighted major advances in skin research, including new findings on skin microbes, genetic links to skin diseases, and improved treatments for various conditions.
research Cyproterone Acetate: A Genotoxic Carcinogen?
Cyproterone acetate may cause liver cancer at high doses, but is considered safe at recommended doses for approved uses.
research Research Progress in Composition, Classification and Influencing Factors of Hair
Lipids are important for healthy hair, but their exact role is not fully understood and needs more research.
research A Transient Dermal Niche and Dual Epidermal Programs Underlie Sweat Gland Development
Sweat gland development involves two unique skin cell programs and a temporary skin environment.
research A New Scalp Treatment for Anti-Aging Hair
The new scalp treatment preserves hair color, reduces hair loss, and maintains hair strength.
research Is Dehydroepiandrosterone a Hormone?
Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Androgens and Hair Growth
Androgens can both increase and decrease hair growth in different parts of the body.
research The Prostamide-Related Glaucoma Therapy, Bimatoprost, Offers a Novel Approach for Treating Scalp Alopecias
Bimatoprost, a glaucoma medication, may also help treat hair loss.
