Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.

Melatonin affects many body functions beyond sleep by interacting with specific receptors in various tissues.

Fat-related cells are important for initiating hair growth.

Improving artificial vascular grafts requires better materials and surface designs to reduce blood clotting and support blood vessel cell growth.

Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss with no cure and treatments that often don't work well.

African spiny mice can regenerate skin, hair, and cartilage, but not muscle, and their unique abilities could be useful for regenerative medicine.

Some wound-healing cells can turn into fat cells around new hair growth in mice.

Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) is a prohormone important for producing sex steroids and has potential health benefits.

Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.

Cushing's syndrome can cause serious health problems, and early treatment is crucial, but some issues may remain after treatment.

Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, influenced by genetics, stress, and diet, and may be prevented by a high soy oil diet.

The secretome from mesenchymal stem cells is a promising treatment that may repair tissue and avoid side effects of stem cell transplantation.

Wnt signaling is crucial for pigmented hair regeneration by controlling stem cell activation and differentiation.

Apoptosis is essential for human skin development and forming a functional epidermis.

The immune system plays a key role in tissue repair, affecting both healing quality and regenerative ability.

Melatonin in the skin helps protect against damage from stress and UV rays, and could be used to treat certain skin conditions.

Ectodin integrates BMP, SHH, and FGF signals in developing ectodermal organs.
