research As a Carrier–Transporter for Hair Follicle Reconstitution, Platelet-Rich Plasma Promotes Proliferation and Induction of Mouse Dermal Papilla Cells
Platelet-rich plasma can help grow more mouse hair follicles, but it doesn't work for human hair follicles yet.
research Higher Levels of Steroidogenic Acute Regulatory Protein and Type I 3β-Hydroxysteroid Dehydrogenase in the Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
Men with baldness have higher levels of specific proteins, suggesting local hormone production may play a role in hair loss.
research Pigmentation of Regenerated Hairs After Wounding
Regenerated hairs can regain their color if the wound occurs during a certain stage of hair growth, and this process is helped by specific skin cells and proteins.
research Cellular Heterogeneity and Plasticity of Skin Epithelial Cells in Wound Healing and Tumorigenesis
Skin cells show flexibility in healing wounds and forming tumors, with potential for treating hair disorders and chronic ulcers.
research In Vitro Models to Study Hair Follicle Generation
Scientists can now grow hair-like structures in a lab using special 3D culture systems, which could potentially help people with hair loss or severe burns.
research Colorimetry Provides a Rapid Objective Measurement of De Novo Hair Growth Rate in Mice
Colorimetry can accurately measure hair growth rates in mice.
research Value of Dermoscopy for the Diagnosis of Monilethrix
Dermoscopy helped diagnose a rare hair disorder in a 2-year-old boy.
research Autophagy Critically Controls Skin Inflammation and Apoptosis-Induced Stem Cell Activation
Autophagy helps control skin inflammation and cancer responses and regulates hair growth by affecting stem cell activity.
research Immortalization of Primary Human Dermal Papilla Cells by Bmi-1 and TERT
Hair care products reduced hair roughness, a combination of Stemoxydine and Resveratrol increased hair density, fermented mackerel oil promoted hair growth, and genes TERT and Bmi-1 helped create new hair follicles.
research Cell-Repellent Polyampholyte for Conformal Coating on Microstructures
Prevelex, a polyampholyte, can create a cell-repellent coating on microdevices, which can be useful in biomedical applications like hair follicle regeneration.
research Novel Use of Matrix for Hair Growth
The technique can potentially treat hair loss by using a matrix to grow new hair from cells.
research Beyond Goosebumps: Interactions Between the Hair Follicle, the Arrector Pili Muscle, and the Sympathetic Nerve During Development and Hair Follicle Regeneration
Arrector pili muscle regulates hair follicle stem cells, DNA methylation needed for hair cycling, and Wnt/B-catenin signaling starts hair growth.
research Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Genetic Basis Underlying the Development of Skin Appendages and Immunity in Hedgehog (Atelerix Albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research Transcriptome Analysis Reveals the Genetic Basis Underlying the Development of Skin Appendages and Immunity in Hedgehog (Atelerix Albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Biochemical Features of Primary Cells from a Pediatric Patient with a Gain-of-Function ODC1 Genetic Mutation
A new genetic disorder caused by an ODC1 mutation can be treated with DFMO.
research Principles and Mechanisms of Regeneration in the Mouse Model for Wound-Induced Hair Follicle Neogenesis
Mice can grow new hair follicles after skin wounds through a process not involving existing hair stem cells, but requiring more research to understand fully.
research Isolation of Mouse Hair Follicle Bulge Stem Cells and Their Functional Analysis in a Reconstitution Assay
Mouse hair follicle stem cells were successfully isolated and used to regenerate hair follicles with two different methods.
research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome: Report of 2 Cases and a Novel LMNA Mutation in China
A new genetic mutation linked to Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome was found in China.
research Novel Androgen Receptor Gene Variant Containing a Premature Termination Codon in a Patient with Androgen Insensitivity Syndrome
A new genetic change causing early stop in the androgen receptor gene was found in a patient with androgen insensitivity syndrome.
research Lineage-Committed Fibroblast Populations Are More Efficient at Regenerating Hair Follicles in Chamber Grafting Assays Compared to Undifferentiated Embryonic Fibroblasts
Differentiated fibroblasts regenerate hair follicles better than undifferentiated ones.
research Congenital Generalized Hypertrichosis With a Copy Number Variation on Chromosome 17q24
A girl with excessive hair growth had a genetic change on chromosome 17 that reduced the activity of two genes linked to hair growth.
research A Cornerstone of Hematological Science
The document concludes that accurately identifying leukemia types is crucial, and the risks of cancer from finasteride need careful evaluation against its benefits.
research Single-Cell Analysis Reveals Fibroblast Heterogeneity and Myeloid-Derived Adipocyte Progenitors in Murine Skin Wounds
