Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Neuroimmunology of Stress: Skin Takes Center Stage
Stress can worsen skin and hair conditions by affecting the skin's immune response and hormone levels.
research Acidic and Basic Hair/Nail (Hard) Keratins: Their Colocalization in Upper Cortical and Cuticle Cells of the Human Hair Follicle and Their Relationship to Soft Keratins
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research Telogen Effluvium: A Comprehensive Review
Telogen effluvium is a reversible hair loss condition that requires a detailed diagnosis and often resolves on its own.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Walking the Maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Physiology and Pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
