research Selective Induction of Apoptosis in the Hamster Flank Sebaceous Gland Organ by a Topical Liposome 5-Alpha-Reductase Inhibitor: A Treatment Strategy for Acne
A topical treatment safely and effectively reduced acne by causing targeted cell death in sebaceous glands without side effects.
research Retail Insights: Branding
The document concludes that understanding consumer-brand relationships is key for marketing and that perceived quality helps national brands maintain higher prices than store brands.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research Hair Pathology
Triple horizontal scalp biopsies are 98% accurate in diagnosing hair loss, better than single biopsies.
research Induction of Dark Keratinocytes by 12-O-Tetradecanoyl-Phorbol-13-Acetate and Mezerein as an Indicator of Tumor-Promoting Efficiency
TPA is about 50 times more effective at promoting tumors than MZ.
research Root Hair Growth: It's a One Way Street
Root hair growth in plants is a complex process controlled by many factors working together.
research P62: An Increase in Breslow Thickness: Coronavirus or Coincidence?
The pandemic likely caused delays in skin cancer assessments, leading to fewer early diagnoses and thicker melanomas.
research A Case of Cutaneous Focal Mucinosis With Follicular Induction
A man with a skin nodule was diagnosed with a rare skin condition called cutaneous focal mucinosis, which can be confused with other skin cancers.
research Measuring Reversal of Hair Miniaturization in Androgenetic Alopecia by Follicular Counts in Horizontal Sections of Serial Scalp Biopsies: Results of Finasteride 1mg Treatment of Men and Postmenopausal Women
Finasteride 1mg helps reverse hair miniaturization in men and postmenopausal women.
research Organotypic Skin Culture Systems for In Vitro Growth of Skin Tissues
Organotypic culture systems can grow skin tissues that mimic real skin functions and are useful for skin disease and hair growth research, but they don't fully replicate skin complexity.
research The Role of P-Cadherin in Skin Biology and Pathology: Lessons from the Hair Follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
research Dual Aspects of B Cells in Tumor Immunity: Positive and Negative Regulation Against B16 Melanoma
B cells can both help and hinder the body's defense against melanoma.
research A Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma: History, Biology, Mechanism of Action, and Classification
Platelet-rich plasma shows promise for skin and hair treatments but needs more research and standardization.
research Transforming Growth Factor-Beta in Stem Cells and Tissue Homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Melanocyte Stem Cells: A Melanocyte Reservoir in Hair Follicles for Hair and Skin Pigmentation
Melanocyte stem cells in hair follicles are key for hair color and could help treat greying and pigment disorders.
research Epidermal Stem Cell Diversity and Quiescence
Epidermal stem cells are diverse and vary in activity, playing key roles in skin maintenance and repair.
research Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair
Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.
research Cloning of Wrinkle-Free, a Previously Uncharacterized Mouse Mutation, Reveals Crucial Roles for Fatty Acid Transport Protein 4 in Skin and Hair Development
Fatty acid transport protein 4 is essential for skin and hair development.
research The Control of Hair Growth: An Overview

research Lineage Analysis of Epidermal Stem Cells
Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.
research Morphological Changes in Human Scalp Hair Roots During Protein Deprivation
Not eating enough protein can cause hair roots to shrink and lose color, and hair to become thinner.
research The Biology of Hair Care
Better hair care products are needed to protect against grooming and chemical damage.
research GLI2-Specific Transcriptional Activation of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein/Activin Antagonist Follistatin in Human Epidermal Cells
GLI2 increases follistatin production in human skin cells.
research Glutamate Transporter SLC1A3 Mediates Inter-Niche Stem Cell Activation During Skin Growth
The protein SLC1A3 is important for activating skin stem cells and is necessary for normal hair and skin growth in mice.
research EGFR Inhibitors and Cutaneous Complications: A Practical Approach to Management
