research Lichen Planopilaris: A Rare Inflammatory Cicatricial Alopecia
Lichen planopilaris is a rare, chronic condition causing hair loss, mainly in middle-aged women, and early treatment is important to prevent permanent baldness.
research Superficial Squamous Cell Carcinomas and Extensive Actinic Keratoses of the Scalp Treated with Radiation Therapy
Radiation therapy successfully treated an elderly man's skin cancer and pre-cancerous scalp lesions.
research Neovascularization During Healing of Wounds Treated with Dermal Substitutes and Fibrin Glue in Nude Mice
Dermagraft and Dermalogen had a lot of granulation, while Alloderm, Integra, and ADM had good blood vessel growth for skin healing.
research Molecular Mechanisms of Donor Dominance in Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair pattern in androgenetic alopecia overlaps with scalp and bone demarcations, with distinct gene profiles affecting susceptibility.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research The Cutaneous Serotoninergic/Melatoninergic System: Securing a Place Under the Sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research Postmenopausal Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia: A Frontal Variant of Lichen Planopilaris
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is a hair loss condition in postmenopausal women, similar to lichen planopilaris, with ineffective treatments.
research Beta-Catenin Activity in the Dermal Papilla Regulates Morphogenesis and Regeneration of Hair
β-catenin in the dermal papilla is crucial for normal hair growth and repair.
research TRPA1 Modulates Mechanotransduction in Cutaneous Sensory Neurons
TRPA1 is crucial for mechanical sensitivity in skin sensory neurons.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Molecular Control of Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions During Hair Follicle Cycling
Epithelial-mesenchymal interactions control hair growth cycles through specific molecular signals.
research Recent Advances in Electrospun Nanofibers for Wound Healing
New nanofiber technology improves wound healing by supporting cell growth and delivering treatments directly to the wound.
research Hair Follicle Aging Is Driven by Transepidermal Elimination of Stem Cells via COL17A1 Proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Biology of the Hair Follicle: The Basics
The document concludes that understanding hair follicle biology can lead to better hair loss treatments.
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 Stem Cell Dynamics, Migration, and Plasticity During Wound Healing
Stem cells help heal skin wounds by moving and changing roles, working with other cells, and needing more research on their activation and behavior.
research Penetration of Drugs Through Skin: A Complex Rate-Controlling Membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Electron Microscope Studies of Hair and Wool
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Biology of Estrogens in Skin: Implications for Skin Aging
Estrogens can improve skin aging but carry risks; more research is needed on safer treatments.
research Cutaneous Scarring: Basic Science, Current Treatments, and Future Directions
New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.
research Overview of Common, Rare, and Atypical Manifestations of Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus and Histopathological Correlates
The document concludes that recognizing and treating cutaneous lupus erythematosus early is crucial for managing the skin and potential systemic symptoms.
research Molecular Biology of Hair Morphogenesis: Development and Cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Transfollicular Drug Delivery: Is It a Reality?
Hair follicles may soon be used more for targeted and systemic drug delivery.
research Hair Anatomy for the Clinician
Understanding hair follicle anatomy helps diagnose hair disorders.
research dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, Which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
