research IPSC-Based Approach for Human Hair Follicle Regeneration
The document concludes that using stem cells to regenerate hair follicles could be a promising treatment for hair loss, but there are still challenges to overcome before it can be used clinically.
research Plasticity and Cytokinetic Dynamics of the Hair Follicle Mesenchyme During the Hair Growth Cycle: Implications for Growth Control and Hair Follicle Transformations
Disruptions in hair follicle fibroblast dynamics can cause hair growth problems.
research Generation of Skin Organoids: Potential Opportunities and Challenges
Skin organoids from stem cells could better mimic real skin but face challenges.
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 Revisiting the Role of Melatonin in Human Melanocyte Physiology: A Skin Context Perspective
Melatonin affects skin and hair color and protects skin cells, with potential benefits for hair growth and skin health.
research Melatonin: A Cutaneous Perspective on Its Production, Metabolism, and Functions
Melatonin may benefit skin health and could be a promising treatment in dermatology.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research A Neuroendocrinological Perspective on Human Hair Follicle Pigmentation
Brain hormones significantly affect hair color and could potentially be used to prevent or reverse grey hair.
research Hair Loss in Elderly Women: A Dermatological Concern
Hair loss in elderly women is often caused by various factors, including hormonal changes after menopause.
research Physiological Regeneration of Skin Appendages and Implications for Regenerative Medicine
The document concludes that understanding hair and feather regeneration can help develop new regenerative medicine strategies.
research Topical Melatonin for Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia
Melatonin solution helps treat hair loss in men and women.
research Endocrine Disorders in Woodhouse-Sakati Syndrome: A Systematic Review of the Literature
Woodhouse-Sakati syndrome often causes sexual development issues, hair loss, learning disabilities, deafness, muscle contractions, limb pain, and diabetes.
research Heterogeneity of Neural Crest-Derived Melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
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 Chemotherapy for Children with Medulloblastoma
Chemotherapy may help with survival in children with medulloblastoma, but more research is needed.
research Hair and Systemic Disease
Hair loss can indicate underlying systemic diseases and addressing these can sometimes reverse the hair loss.
research Pathobiology of Chemotherapy-Induced Hair Loss
Chemotherapy causes hair loss by damaging hair follicles and stem cells, with more research needed for prevention and treatment.
research Congenital Atrichia and Hypotrichosis
The document emphasizes the importance of correctly identifying and classifying genetic hair disorders to help diagnose related health conditions.
research Hair and Nail Disorders of Childhood
The document concludes that various childhood hair and nail disorders exist, some may improve on their own, and advances in genetics and immunology could enhance treatment and counseling.
research Hair Loss in Children
Most hair loss in children is caused by a few common conditions, and it's important to diagnose these properly and support the child's mental health.
research Formulation and Evaluation of Flaxseeds Hair Gel
Flaxseed hair gel is effective for hair growth and dandruff, is stable, and has minimal side effects.
research Meta-Analysis Identifies Novel Risk Loci and Yields Systematic Insights into the Biology of Male-Pattern Baldness
Researchers found 63 genes linked to male-pattern baldness, which could help in understanding its biology and developing new treatments.
research Disorders of Hair
The document concludes that hair analysis is not good for assessing nutrition but can detect long-term heavy metal exposure.
research DHT and E2 Synthesis-Related Proteins and Receptors Expression in Male Yak Skin During Different Hair Follicle Stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research The Circular RNA circNlgn Mediates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiac Remodeling and Fibrosis
A specific RNA, circNlgn, contributes to heart damage and scarring caused by the cancer drug doxorubicin.
research Targeting Superficial or Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma with Topically Formulated Small Molecule Inhibitor of Smoothened
The topical inhibitor CUR61414 was not effective in treating basal cell carcinoma in human trials.
research A Study on Melatonin Receptor Genes Expression in Embryonic Goose Skin Feather Follicles
Melatonin receptor genes likely play an important role in the development of goose feather follicles.
research From Neural Crest Cells to Melanocytes: Cellular Plasticity During Development and Beyond
Melanocyte development from neural crest cells is complex and influenced by many factors, and better understanding could help treat skin disorders.
research Familial Nonmembranous Aplasia Cutis of the Scalp
