Lysophospholipids like LPA and S1P are important for hair growth, immune responses, and vascular development, and could be targeted for treating diseases.
research Wound Healing Impairment in Type 2 Diabetes Model of Leptin-Deficient Mice: A Mechanistic Systematic Review
Leptin-deficient mice, used as a model for Type 2 Diabetes, have delayed wound healing due to impaired contraction and other dysfunctional cellular responses.
research Sebaceous Immunobiology: Skin Homeostasis, Innate Immunity Coordination, Inflammatory Response, and Disease Associations
Sebaceous glands play a key role in skin health, immunity, and various skin diseases.
research Cephalalgic Alopecia Areata: A Case Study
Botulinum A toxin injections reduced pain and promoted hair regrowth in a woman with a rare form of alopecia areata.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Advances in Chitosan-Based Nanoparticles for Drug Delivery
Chitosan, a natural substance, can be used to create tiny particles that effectively deliver various types of drugs, but more work is needed to improve stability and control of drug release.
research Perilla Frutescens: A Rich Source of Pharmacologically Active Compounds
