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 Increased Copy Number of the TERT and TERC Telomerase Subunit Genes in Cancer Cells
Cancer cells often have more copies of TERT and TERC genes, which helps them grow and could affect patient outcomes.
research Linking Diet to Acne Metabolomics, Inflammation, and Comedogenesis: An Update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research Hormone Replacement Therapy and the Skin
Estrogen replacement can improve skin health in menopausal women but doesn't reverse sun damage or prevent hair loss.
research Somatic Stem Cell Heterogeneity: Diversity in the Blood, Skin, and Intestinal Stem Cell Compartments
Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
research Epithelial Integrity Is Maintained by a Matriptase-Dependent Proteolytic Pathway
Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
research Estrogens and the Skin
Estrogen loss during menopause worsens skin health, but hormone replacement therapy may improve it, though more research is needed.
research TGF-β Family Signaling in Stem Cells
TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.
research Treatment of Hirsutism with the Pure Antiandrogen Flutamide
Flutamide effectively reduced excessive hair growth and improved related symptoms in hirsutism patients without significant side effects.
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 Complex Hair Cycle Domain Patterns and Regenerative Hair Waves in Living Rodents
Mice hair growth patterns get more complex with age and can change with events like pregnancy or injury.
research Cepharanthine: An Update of Its Mode of Action, Pharmacological Properties, and Medical Applications
Cepharanthine is a well-tolerated drug with multiple medical uses, including anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer properties.
research Stretching the Limits: From Homeostasis to Stem Cell Plasticity in Wound Healing and Cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research The Role of Melatonin in Neuroectodermal-Mesodermal Interactions: The Hair Follicle Synthesizes Melatonin and Expresses Functional Melatonin Receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Effect of Estrogens on Skin Aging and the Potential Role of SERMs
Estrogens help reduce skin aging, and SERMs might offer similar benefits without the risks of hormone therapy.
research Extraskeletal Actions of Vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
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 Acne: Hormonal Concepts and Therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Effects of In Utero Exposure to Finasteride on Androgen-Dependent Reproductive Development in Male Rats
Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.
research Incidence of Liver Toxicity Associated with the Use of Flutamide in Prostate Cancer Patients
Flutamide rarely causes liver toxicity in prostate cancer patients.
research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome Due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
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 The Hair Cycle of the Mouse and Its Importance in the Study of Sequences of Experimental Carcinogenesis
Understanding the mouse hair cycle is crucial for cancer research.
research Melatonin and the Hair Follicle
Melatonin helps regulate hair growth and protects the hair follicle from stress.

ICG-enhanced NIR laser therapy may be a promising acne treatment with improvement and no side effects.
research Androgen Receptor-Mediated Inhibition of Cutaneous Wound Healing
Lowering testosterone speeds up wound healing in male mice.
research Oral Retinoids: Present Status
Oral retinoids are effective for various skin conditions but have side effects and should not be used during pregnancy.
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.
