research Neuroendocrine Controls of Keratin Expression in Human Skin
Neurohormones help control skin health and could treat skin disorders.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Integration of Biochemical and Mechanical Signals at the Nuclear Periphery: Impacts on Skin Development and Disease
The conclusion is that the nuclear lamina and LINC complex in skin cells respond to mechanical signals, affecting gene expression and cell differentiation, which is important for skin health and can impact skin diseases.
research SEM/SDD-EDS: An Analytical Tool to Identify Waterborne Micro Minerals Pickup in Human Scalp Hair Cuticle Due to Water Quality
Water quality affects mineral content in hair, and coconut oil can protect against damage.
research Small T Antigen From a Folliculotropic Polyomavirus Activates Canonical Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling In Vivo
A virus protein can activate a pathway that may lead to abnormal hair follicle development.
research Exploring the Role of MicroRNAs in Alopecia Areata
Certain microRNAs may protect against hair loss in alopecia areata and could be potential treatment targets.
research Manipulation of Stem Cell Divisional Behavior: Selectively Promoting Asymmetric and Symmetric Keratinocyte Divisions In Vitro
Scientists can control how skin stem cells divide by using different treatments.
research Dermal Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Controls Hair Follicle Dermal Condensate Size During Development
Dermal Wnt/β-catenin signaling is important for the proper size and development of hair follicles.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Disorders of Keratinization
The chapter explains that there are many genetic skin disorders affecting skin cell formation, including both common and rare types.
research Providing Mesotherapy to Prevent and Treat Hair Loss in Aesthetic Practice
Mesotherapy with natural extracts and vitamins can improve hair loss and promote regrowth in most women.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Australian Hair and Wool Research Society Cutaneous Biology and Endocrinology Workshop
The workshop highlighted the genetic links and psychological impacts of hair loss and skin disorders.
research Hair Today
The document concludes that understanding hair biology is key to treating hair disorders, with gene therapy showing potential as a future treatment.
research Preface
Research on hair disorders has advanced, with promising future progress in understanding and treating these conditions.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
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 Biology of Hair Follicles
Hair follicle biology advancements may lead to better hair growth disorder treatments.
research Epidermal Homeostasis: A Balancing Act of Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.
research Lgr5 Marks Cycling, Yet Long-Lived, Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Lgr5 is a marker for active, long-lasting stem cells in mouse hair follicles.
