research Control of Hair Growth and Follicle Size by VEGF-Mediated Angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Melatonin Membrane Receptors in Peripheral Tissues: Distribution and Functions
Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.
research Proteasome Inhibitors: An Expanding Army Attacking a Unique Target
Proteasome inhibitors are promising treatments for various cancers, autoimmune diseases, and other conditions.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Alopecia Areata Update
Half of people with Alopecia Areata may see hair regrowth within a year without treatment, but recovery is unpredictable.
research Defining the Impact of Beta-Catenin/Tcf Transactivation on Epithelial Stem Cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Complications of Cushing's Syndrome: State of the Art
Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.
research Diagnostic and Predictive Value of Horizontal Sections of Scalp Biopsy Specimens in Male Pattern Androgenetic Alopecia
Horizontal scalp biopsy sections effectively diagnose and predict MPAA, with follicular density and inflammation impacting hair regrowth.
research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research TRPA1 Modulates Mechanotransduction in Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
TRPA1 is crucial for mechanical sensitivity in skin sensory neurons.
research Deletion of DNA Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
research Severe Cutaneous Adverse Reactions to Drugs
Some drugs can cause rare but potentially deadly skin reactions, and early treatment and avoiding the drug again are key.
research WNT Signaling in the Control of Hair Growth and Structure
The research shows that a gene called Wnt3 affects hair growth and structure, causing short hair and balding when overactive.
research Pathobiology of Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research The British Society for Rheumatology Guideline for the Management of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in Adults
The guidelines suggest a detailed approach to diagnosing and treating lupus, with a focus on regular check-ups, personalized medicine, and a range of drug options for different cases.
research Noggin Is Required for Induction of the Hair Follicle Growth Phase in Postnatal Skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research Stress Inhibits Hair Growth in Mice by Inducing Premature Catagen Development and Harmful Perifollicular Inflammatory Events via Neuropeptide Substance P-Dependent Pathways
Stress stops hair growth in mice by causing early hair growth phase end and harmful inflammation through a specific nerve-related pathway.
research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines Its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Androgen-Inducible TGF-β1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Inhibits Epithelial Cell Growth: A Clue to Understanding Paradoxical Effects of Androgen on Human Hair Growth
Androgens may cause hair loss by increasing TGF-beta1 from scalp cells, which inhibits hair cell growth.
research COVID-19 and Sex Differences: Mechanisms and Biomarkers
Men are more likely to have severe COVID-19 cases and fatalities than women due to factors like lifestyle, aging, and biological differences.
research Fully Functional Hair Follicle Regeneration Through the Rearrangement of Stem Cells and Their Niches
Regenerated fully functional hair follicles using stem cells, with potential for hair regrowth therapy.
research A Hot New Twist to Hair Biology: The Role of TRPV1 in Human Hair Growth Control
Capsaicin, found in chili peppers, can slow down hair growth by affecting skin cells and hair follicles.
research In Vivo Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Canonical Wnt Regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
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 Functional Salivary Gland Regeneration by Transplantation of a Bioengineered Organ Germ
Scientists made working salivary glands in mice using bioengineered cells, which could help treat dry mouth.
research Fibrosing Alopecia in a Pattern Distribution
Some people with pattern hair loss may also have scalp inflammation and scarring similar to lichen planopilaris.
research The Pathogenesis of Primary Cicatricial Alopecias
The document concludes that more research is needed to better understand and treat primary cicatricial alopecias, and suggests a possible reclassification based on molecular pathways.
