research Hair Growth Promoting Activity of Cedrol Isolated from the Leaves of Platycladus Orientalis
Cedrol from Platycladus orientalis leaves may promote hair growth effectively, especially in female mice.
research Wound Healing, Cutaneous Therapy, Hair
A device was made in 2008 to measure hair loss severity. Other findings include: frizzy mutation in mice isn't related to Fgfr2, C/EBPx marks preadipocytes, Cyclosporin A speeds up hair growth in mice, blocking plasmin and metalloproteinases hinders healing, hyperbaric oxygen helps ischemic wound healing, amniotic membranes heal wounds better than polyurethane foam, rhVEGF165 from a fibrin matrix improves tissue flap viability and induces VEGF-R2 expression, and bFGF enhances wound healing and reduces scarring in rabbits.
research The Disease Spectrum, Epidemiology, and Etiology of Toxic-Shock Syndrome
Toxic Shock Syndrome cases increased due to new factors, but decreased with public health measures and changes in tampon use.
research Potential Factors Contributing to Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness may be caused by factors like poor blood circulation, scalp tension, stress, and hormonal imbalances, but the exact causes are still unclear.
research Co-Opting Developmental Signaling Pathways to Promote Wound Healing
Using developmental signaling pathways could improve adult wound healing by mimicking scarless embryonic healing.
research Keratin Expression in the Human Hair Follicle
research Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia in Mice: Induction by Cyclophosphamide, Inhibition by Cyclosporine A, and Modulation by Dexamethasone
Cyclosporine A slows down hair loss from chemotherapy in mice, while dexamethasone increases hair loss but speeds up regrowth.
research Biochemical Evidence That Small Proline-Rich Proteins and Trichohyalin Function in Epithelia by Modulation of the Biomechanical Properties of Their Cornified Cell Envelopes
Small proline-rich proteins and trichohyalin help make epithelial tissues tougher and more flexible.
research Epidermal Growth Factor as a Biological Switch in Hair Growth Cycle
EGF controls hair growth by regulating hair follicles' growth phases.
research Scaffold-Based Developmental Tissue Engineering Strategies for Ectodermal Organ Regeneration
Scaffold-based strategies show promise for regenerating hair follicles and teeth but need more research for clinical use.
research Impaired Wound Healing in Transgenic Mice Overexpressing the Activin Antagonist Follistatin in the Epidermis
