Zinc deficiency disrupts hair growth and cycle, but zinc supplements can fix this.
research Effects of Rosemary Oil on Enzyme Activities and Cytokine Expression Related to Hair Growth in C57BL/6 Mice
Rosemary oil can boost hair growth by increasing certain enzyme activities and cytokine expression.
research Effect of Polygoni Multiflorum Radix Water Extracts on Enzyme Activities and Gene Expression Related to Hair Growth in Mice
Polygoni multiflori Radix water extracts promote hair growth in mice.
research Expression of Mu-Opiate Receptor in Human Epidermis and Keratinocytes
μ-opiate receptors in skin cells may affect skin health and healing.
research Effects of licorice on synthesis of vascular endothelial growth factor in human dermal papilla cells
The study investigated the effects of licorice on VEGF protein synthesis and mRNA expression in human dermal papilla cells (DPCs). DPCs were treated with various concentrations of licorice for 72 hours, and results showed a significant increase in both VEGF protein levels and mRNA expression compared to controls. The findings suggested that licorice could stimulate VEGF production in DPCs, potentially playing a crucial role in promoting hair growth.
research Control of Hair Growth and Follicle Size by VEGF-Mediated Angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Sebocytes Are the Key Regulators of Androgen Homeostasis in Human Skin
Sebocytes play a key role in controlling androgen levels in human skin.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Skeletal Site-Dependent Expression of the Androgen Receptor in Human Osteoblastic Cell Populations
Higher androgen levels and site-specific AR expression cause sex-related skeletal differences, and certain steroids can boost AR expression and androgen effects in bone cells.
research A Role for p75 Neurotrophin Receptor in the Control of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Regulation of Keratin 9 in Nonpalmoplantar Keratinocytes by Palmoplantar Fibroblasts Through Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interactions
Nonpalmoplantar skin cells can be made to express keratin 9 by interacting with palmoplantar fibroblasts.
research Prolactin Signaling Influences the Timing Mechanism of the Hair Follicle: Analysis of Hair Growth Cycles in Prolactin Receptor Knockout Mice
Prolactin affects when mice shed and grow hair.
research Human Hair Follicles Are an Extrarenal Source and a Nonhematopoietic Target of Erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research 17β-Estradiol Inhibits the Production of RANTES in Human Keratinocytes
17β-estradiol can reduce inflammation in the skin.
research The cDNA-Deduced Amino Acid Sequence for Trichohyalin, a Differentiation Marker in the Hair Follicle, Contains a 23 Amino Acid Repeat
Trichohyalin, a hair follicle protein, has a part with repeating patterns of 23 amino acids.
research Signaling Couples Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence With Reduced Histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 for Proper Tissue Homeostasis
Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
research Dietary Isoflavone Increases Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Production, Thereby Promoting Hair Growth in Mice
Eating isoflavone can help mice grow hair by increasing a growth factor.
research Expression of AKT1 Along with AKT2 in Granulosa-Lutein Cells of Hyperandrogenic PCOS Patients
The study found that women with hyperandrogenic PCOS have higher levels of AKT1 and AKT2 proteins in their cells, which may lead to cell dysfunction.
research Crosstalk Between Androgen and Wnt/β-Catenin Leads to Changes in Wool Density in FGF5-Knockout Sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Expression of matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinases in the hair cycle
The study investigated the expression of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors (TIMPs) during the hair cycle in mice. It found that MMP-2 and MMP-9 had elevated mRNA and protein expression levels during the anagen phase and decreased levels during the catagen and telogen phases. Their activities fluctuated throughout the hair cycle. TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 expression levels were negatively correlated with MMP-9 and MMP-2, respectively. Immunohistochemical analysis showed that MMP-2 and TIMP-2 were present in all hair follicle structures, while MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were localized to specific areas. These findings suggested that MMP-2 and MMP-9 played significant roles in the hair growth cycle.
