research Learning From Nudity: Lessons From The Nude Phenotype
The Foxn1 gene mutation causes hairlessness and immune system issues, and understanding it could lead to hair growth disorder treatments.
research Identification of a Cyclosporine-Specific P450 Hydroxylase Gene Through Targeted Cytochrome P450 Complement Disruption in Sebekia Benihana
A gene in Sebekia benihana, CYP-sb21, is needed for a specific reaction on the drug Cyclosporine A, which could be important for hair growth without affecting the immune system.
research A Human Prenatal Skin Cell Atlas Reveals Immune Cell Regulation of Skin Morphogenesis
Immune cells are essential for early hair and skin development and healing.
research Tracing Immune Cells Around Biomaterials With Spatial Anchors During Large-Scale Wound Regeneration
Immune cells are essential for skin regeneration using biomaterial scaffolds.
research Skin - A Vast Organ with Immunological Function (Review)
The skin is a large organ that plays a role in the immune system.
research Human Hair Follicle-Derived Mesenchymal Stromal Cells from the Lower Dermal Sheath as a Competitive Alternative for Immunomodulation
Cells from the lower part of hair follicles are a promising, less invasive option for immune system therapies.
research Biology of the Skin and Dermatological Disease
Knowing how skin works and its diseases helps doctors diagnose and treat skin conditions better.
research The Immune Response to COVID-19: Does Sex Matter?
Men and women get COVID-19 at similar rates, but men tend to get sicker and have a higher risk of dying, while women usually have stronger immune responses and vaccine reactions.
research Stem Cell Dynamics in the Hair Follicle Niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research The Blastema and Epimorphic Regeneration in Mammals
Mammals might fail to regenerate not because they lack the right cells, but because of how cells respond to their surroundings, and changing this environment could enhance regeneration.
research Zinc: A Complementary Factor in the Treatment of Chronic Hepatitis C?
Zinc supplementation may help improve treatment outcomes for chronic hepatitis C.
research Development of PEGylated Liposomes
PEGylated liposomal doxorubicin improves cancer treatment effectiveness and reduces side effects like heart damage and hair loss.
research Stem Cells Tightly Regulate Dead Cell Clearance to Maintain Tissue Fitness
Stem cells help remove dead cells to keep tissues healthy by balancing cell replacement and clearance.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
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.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Release Systems Based on Self-Assembling RADA16-I Hydrogels With a Signal Sequence Which Improves Wound Healing Processes
Self-assembling RADA16-I hydrogels with bioactive peptides significantly improve wound healing.
research Application of Stem Cells in Regenerative Medicine
Stem cells and their exosomes show promise for repairing tissues and healing wounds when delivered effectively, but more research is needed on their tracking and optimal use.
research Pregnancy and Skin: Changes and Dermatoses
Most skin changes during pregnancy are harmless and temporary, but some can risk the fetus and need careful treatment.
research Toward Understanding Scarless Skin Wound Healing and Pathological Scarring
Scarless healing is complex and influenced by genetics and environment, while better understanding could improve scar treatment.
research A Nonredundant Human Protein Chip for Antibody Screening and Serum Profiling
The technology can help diagnose and subtype autoimmune diseases by identifying specific autoantibodies.
research Scarring Hair Follicle Destruction Is Driven by the Collapse of EGFR-Protected JAK-STAT1-Sensitive Stem Cell Immune Privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Tissue Engineering of the Reproductive System
Cell transplantation faces challenges in genitourinary reconstruction, but alternative tissue sources and microencapsulation show promise.
research Type 2 Innate Immunity Regulates Hair Follicle Homeostasis to Control Demodex Pathosymbionts
A specific immune response helps control mite populations on the skin, maintaining healthy hair follicles.
research ADM Scaffolds Generate a Pro-Regenerative Microenvironment During Full-Thickness Cutaneous Wound Healing Through M2 Macrophage Polarization via Lamtor1
ADM scaffolds help skin heal by promoting a healing-type immune response.
research Uncombable Hair Syndrome and Beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Calreticulin: Non-Endoplasmic Reticulum Functions in Physiology and Disease
Calreticulin has roles in healing, immune response, and disease beyond its known functions in the endoplasmic reticulum.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research A Spontaneous Deletion Within the Desmoglein 3 Extracellular Domain of Mice Results in Hypomorphic Protein Expression, Immunodeficiency, and a Wasting Disease Phenotype
A gene deletion in mice causes weak protein, immune issues, hair loss, airway problems, and wasting disease.
research Extraskeletal Actions of Vitamin D
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.
