research Light Microscopic Hair Abnormalities in Children: Retrospective Review of 119 Cases in a 10-Year Period
Over half of the children had abnormal hair under a microscope, with many having genetic hair conditions.
research Patched-Associated Tumors: Modifier Genes and Pathogenesis
The document concludes that the development of certain tumors is influenced by genetic background and that a specific gene modification can lead to tumor regression and reduced growth.
research Hair Cycle and Alopecia X in Dogs
Alopecia X in dogs is a cosmetic issue, not a hormonal disorder, and harmful treatments should be avoided.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Biallelic Variants in Lanosterol Synthase (LSS) Cause Palmoplantar Keratoderma-Congenital Alopecia Syndrome Type 2
Certain genetic changes in the LSS gene cause a rare skin and hair condition.
research Roles of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Epidermal and Hair Follicle Development, Homeostasis, and Cancer
The Hedgehog signaling pathway is important for skin and hair growth and can lead to cancer if it doesn't work right.
research Structural and Molecular Hair Abnormalities in Trichothiodystrophy
TTD hair brittleness is caused by multiple structural abnormalities.
research Proliferative and Non-Proliferative Lesions of the Rat and Mouse Integument
The project created a standardized system for classifying skin lesions in lab rats and mice.
research Protective Effects of Melatonin on the Skin: Future Perspectives
Melatonin, usually known for sleep regulation, also has antioxidant properties that can protect skin, stimulate hair growth, and improve skin conditions, with topical application being more effective than oral use.
research Oil Body Bound Oleosin-rhFGF9 Fusion Protein Expressed in Safflower Stimulates Hair Growth and Wound Healing in Mice
A protein found in safflower seeds can stimulate hair growth and speed up wound healing in mice.
research Effect of Melatonin on Genes Including FGF5 Related to Hair Growth in Cashmere Goat Skin
Melatonin increased the activity of a hair growth gene in Cashmere goats.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription and DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Genotype-Phenotype Correlation in Boys with X-Linked Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia
Boys with less severe EDA mutations in XLHED have milder symptoms and better sweat and hair production.
research Signaling Involved in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Development
The conclusion is that proper signaling is crucial for hair growth and development, and errors can lead to cancer or hair loss.
research Structure and Development of the Skin and Cutaneous Appendages
Understanding skin structure and development helps diagnose and treat skin disorders.
research Scratching the Surface of Skin Development
The document concludes that skin stem cells are important for hair growth and wound healing, and could be used in regenerative medicine.
research Cell Death in the Skin: Mechanisms and Implications
Understanding how cells die in the skin is important for treating skin diseases and preventing hair loss.
research Epidermal Development in Mammals: Key Regulators, Signals from Beneath, and Stem Cells
Skin development in mammals is controlled by key proteins and signals from underlying cells, involving stem cells for maintenance and repair.
research Scalp Hair Characteristics in the Newborn Infant
