research In Silico Analysis of Gene Expression Data from Bald Frontal and Haired Occipital Scalp to Identify Candidate Genes in Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Found 32 genes linked to male baldness, affecting hair growth and stress-related pathways.
research News in Brief
Researchers discovered potential origins and new treatments for skin cancer, including biomarkers for melanoma and therapies that reduce tumor growth.
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 Normal and Aging Hair Biology and Structure: Aging and Hair
Hair gets thinner, grayer, and changes texture with age due to genetics, environment, and cellular changes, affecting the growth cycle.
research Stem Cells in Plastic Surgery and Aesthetic Medicine
Stem cells can improve wound healing, reduce scars, promote hair growth, rejuvenate skin, and enhance fat grafts in plastic surgery, but there are still some concerns.
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 Molecular Mechanisms of Viral Oncogenesis in Humans
Some viruses can cause cancer by changing cell processes and avoiding the immune system; vaccines and targeted treatments help reduce these cancers.
research Age-Associated Inflammation Connects RAS-Induced Senescence to Stem Cell Dysfunction and Epidermal Malignancy
Older skin has higher cancer risk due to inflammation and stem cell issues.
research Skin Melanocytes: Biology and Development
The paper concludes that understanding melanocyte development can help in insights into skin diseases and melanoma diversity.
research Exosomes for Repair, Regeneration, and Rejuvenation
Exosomes could potentially enhance tissue repair and regeneration with lower rejection risk and easier production than live cell therapies.
research Ultraviolet Radiation in Wound Care: Sterilization and Stimulation
UV radiation can help sterilize wounds and promote healing but requires careful use to avoid damaging cells.
research Conditioned Media Derived from Mesenchymal Stem Cell Cultures: The Next Generation for Regenerative Medicine
Conditioned media from mesenchymal stem cell cultures could be a more effective alternative for regenerative therapies, but more research is needed.
research Cutaneous Reactions to Chemotherapeutic Drugs and Targeted Therapy for Cancer
Targeted cancer therapies often cause skin reactions, so dermatologists must manage these effects.
research Valproic Acid Induces Hair Regeneration in Murine Model and Activates Alkaline Phosphatase Activity in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Valproic Acid helps regrow hair in mice and activates a hair growth marker in human cells.
research Inducible Deletion of Epidermal Dicer and Drosha Reveals Multiple Functions for miRNAs in Postnatal Skin
Drosha and Dicer are essential for hair follicle health and preventing DNA damage in skin cells.
research Molecular Targeted Therapies for Cancer: Sorafenib Monotherapy and Its Combination with Other Therapies
Sorafenib helps some advanced cancers alone or with other treatments, but not all, and research continues to improve its use.
research Roles of Tumor Suppressors in Regulating Tumor-Associated Inflammation
Tumor suppressors help control inflammation in cancer and restoring their function could lead to new treatments.
research Epidermal E-Cadherin Dependent β-Catenin Pathway Is Phytochemical Inducible and Accelerates Anagen Hair Cycling
A form of vitamin E promotes hair growth by activating a specific skin pathway.
research Fibromodulin Reduces Scar Formation in Adult Cutaneous Wounds by Eliciting a Fetal-Like Phenotype
Fibromodulin treatment helps reduce scarring and improves wound healing by making it more like fetal healing.
research Hair Biology
The document explains hair biology, the causes of hair loss, and reviews various hair loss treatments.
research Skin Organoids: A New Human Model for Developmental and Translational Research
Skin organoids are a promising new model for studying human skin development and testing treatments.
research Engineering the Niche for Hair Regeneration: A Critical Review
Further research is needed to improve hair regeneration using stem cells and nanomaterials.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research Foxp1 Regulates the Proliferation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Response to Oxidative Stress During Hair Cycling
Foxp1 helps control hair stem cell growth and response to stress during hair growth cycles.
research Chemotherapy-Induced Iatrogenic Injury of Skin: New Drugs and New Concepts
New chemotherapy drugs cause skin side effects, but treatments like minocycline and tetracycline can help reduce them.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Exosomes as a Novel Pathway for Regulating Development and Diseases of the Skin
Exosomes are important for skin health and could help diagnose and treat skin diseases.
