April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that dsRNA may enhance KRT9 expression in palm and sole skin through β-catenin signaling, potentially linking mechanical damage to specific skin features and certain skin conditions.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study provides a comprehensive platform to explore stem cell interactions regulating hair follicle growth, revealing key signaling pathways in epithelial-mesenchymal interactions using advanced RNA sequencing and transgenic reporters.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study found that gypenosides from Gynostemma pentaphyllum increased procollagen synthesis in vitro and reduced periorbital wrinkles by about 14% in a clinical trial with 24 women.
April 2016 in “Journal of Investigative Dermatology” This study suggests that lithocholic acid may enhance hair regeneration in alopecia by activating vitamin D receptors in human dermal papilla cells.
June 2026 in “Institutional Repositories DataBase (IRDB)” Crickets have genetically controlled hair plates that help them sense and move their antennae.
March 2026 in “Trends in Sciences” This review suggests that while platelet-rich plasma has the most robust clinical evidence, platelet-rich fibrin and concentrated growth factors are gaining favor due to their ease of use and absence of additives.
November 2025 in “Cancer Management and Research” This study highlighted Keratin 17's critical role in cancer therapy resistance across several malignancies, involving various signaling pathways, and identified it as a significant biomarker and potential therapeutic target, particularly in reversing resistance.
October 2024 in “Irish Journal of Medical Science (1971 -)” In this study, TENS of the T6 dermatome over a longer term was explored for its effects on weight, blood pressure, heart rate, and appetite-regulating hormones in obese subjects with moderate obstructive sleep apnea; however, results are not reported in the abstract.
This study found that Wnt7a protein expression increased after corneal epithelial injury and promoted human corneal epithelium cell proliferation by upregulating fibronectin and enhancing cell adhesion.
January 2023 in “Åbo Akademi University Research Portal” This study found that vimentin is essential for proper wound healing and cell growth by influencing EMT signaling and mTOR activity in mice.
January 2019 in “Durham e-Theses (Durham University)” This study utilized advanced imaging techniques to quantify hair damage and dye uptake dynamics, revealing that compound penetration in hair is influenced by molecule size and lipophilicity.
June 2008 in “Springer eBooks” The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
