research Macrophages Regulate Schwann Cell Maturation After Nerve Injury
Macrophages help heal nerves by aiding the maturation of Schwann cells and are important for nerve repair.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor Beta Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
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.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research What’s Sex Got to Do With COVID-19? Gender-Based Differences in the Host Immune Response to Coronaviruses
Men generally have more severe COVID-19 cases and higher death rates than women due to biological differences.
research Targeting the Janus Kinase Family in Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising treatments for autoimmune skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research MicroRNA-302 Increases Reprogramming Efficiency via Repression of NR2F2
MicroRNA-302 helps improve the conversion of body cells into stem cells by blocking NR2F2.
research Resting No More: Redefining Telogen, the Maintenance Stage of the Hair Growth Cycle
The telogen phase of hair growth is active and important for preparing hair follicles for regeneration, not just a resting stage.
research Careless Talk Costs Lives: Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor Signalling and the Consequences of Pathway Malfunction
Fibroblast growth factor receptor signaling controls cell development and repair, and its malfunction can cause disorders and cancer, but it also offers potential for targeted therapies.
research Potassium Channel Therapeutics at the Bedside
Potassium channel openers are effective in treating heart conditions, high blood pressure, pulmonary diseases, bladder issues, and hair loss, but more selective drugs are needed.
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 Lignans and Neolignans: Plant Secondary Metabolites as a Reservoir of Biologically Active Substances
Lignans and neolignans from plants may help protect against various health issues, including cancer and heart disease.
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 Suprabasal Desmoglein 3 Expression in the Epidermis of Transgenic Mice Results in Hyperproliferation and Abnormal Differentiation
Overexpressing Dsg3 in mice skin causes excessive cell growth and abnormal skin development.
research Skin Adipocyte Stem Cell Self-Renewal Is Regulated by a PDGFA/AKT Signaling Axis
PDGFA/AKT signaling is important for the growth and maintenance of certain skin fat cells.
research Activation of Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-3 Inhibits Human Hair Growth
Activating TRPV3 stops human hair growth.
research Cloning of a Functional Vitamin D Receptor from the Lamprey, an Ancient Vertebrate Lacking a Calcified Skeleton and Teeth

research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Chemotherapy often causes temporary hair loss, which is distressing and needs better treatment and support.
research Generation of Folliculogenic Human Epithelial Stem Cells from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists created stem cells that can grow hair and skin.
research Neuroendocrinology of the Hair Follicle: Principles and Clinical Perspectives
Hair follicles are hormone-sensitive and involved in growth and other functions, with potential for new treatments, but more research is needed.
research Prolactin and the Skin: A Dermatological Perspective on an Ancient Pleiotropic Peptide Hormone
Prolactin affects hair growth and skin conditions, and could be a target for new skin disease treatments.
research Beyond Acne: Current Aspects of Sebaceous Gland Biology and Function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research Endocrine Control of Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia
Hormones and metabolism play a complex role in prostate enlargement, and more research is needed to improve diagnosis and treatment.
research Sensitive Skin
Sensitive skin is often caused by nerve fibers and environmental factors, and can be managed with mild skincare and professional advice.
research Circadian Clock-Mediated Control of Stem Cell Division and Differentiation: Beyond Night and Day
