The document describes how to tell different types of non-scarring hair loss apart by looking at hair and scalp tissue under a microscope.
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.
research Chronic Inflammatory Diseases Stimulated by Current Lifestyle: How Diet, Stress Levels, and Medication Prevent Our Body from Recovering
Modern lifestyles, including poor diet, stress, and long-term use of certain medications, hinder the body's ability to heal from inflammation, leading to chronic diseases.
research Thallium Poisoning: Diagnosis May Be Elusive But Alopecia Is The Clue
Alopecia is a key indicator of thallium poisoning.
research Epithelial Skin Biology: Stem Cells and Epidermal Homeostasis
The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Acne: Hormonal Concepts and Therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Macrophages Induce AKT/β-Catenin-Dependent Lgr5+ Stem Cell Activation and Hair Follicle Regeneration Through TNF
Macrophages help regrow hair by activating stem cells using AKT/β-catenin and TNF.
research Pharma in the Bedroom and the Kitchen: The Pharmaceuticalisation of Daily Life
The conclusion is that the increasing use of drugs for lifestyle reasons is a complex issue influenced by corporate profit, consumer behavior, and the medicalization of everyday life, with potential negative effects on personal well-being.
research Biochemical Testing of the Thyroid: TSH Is the Best and Often Only Test Needed – A Review for Primary Care
TSH is usually the only test needed to check thyroid function in primary care.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Stress Exposure Modulates Peptidergic Innervation and Degranulates Mast Cells in Murine Skin
Stress increases nerve fibers and immune cell activity in mouse skin, possibly worsening skin conditions.
research Smoking and the Skin: Effects and Therapeutic Potential
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Zinc: An Essential Trace Element for Parenteral Nutrition
Zinc is crucial for nutrition, especially in patients with specific health conditions, and requires careful supplementation and monitoring.
research Effect of Aminopterin on Epithelial Tissues
Aminopterin strongly suppresses epithelial tissues and can treat certain skin conditions but has significant side effects.
research Wnt and Notch Signaling Pathway Involved in Wound Healing by Targeting c-Myc and Hes1 Separately
Wnt and Notch signaling help wound healing by promoting cell growth and regulating cell differentiation.
research Targeting the Wnt Pathways for Therapies
Blocking the Wnt pathway could lead to new treatments for cancer and tissue repair but requires careful development to avoid side effects.
research Genetic Basis of Skin Appendage Development
Hair, teeth, and mammary glands develop similarly at first but use different genes later.
