90-120 / 442 results research A Folliculocentric Perspective of Dandruff Pathogenesis: Could a Troublesome Condition Be Caused by Changes to a Natural Secretory Mechanism?
Dandruff might be caused by changes in how hair follicles naturally release oils and an immune response to this imbalance.
research Obesity and the Skin
Obesity is linked to various skin problems and may increase the risk of skin cancer.
research British Society for Dermatopathology 2011 Findings
Dermatologists give better information on pathology forms, hypersensitivity vasculitis is a common skin issue, misdiagnoses can occur, and various skin conditions are linked to loss of elastin or genetic factors.
research Deciphering the Functions of the Hair Follicle Infundibulum in Skin Physiology and Disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Revisiting Dandruff: Role of Malassezia Yeasts and Treatment Implications
Dandruff is mainly caused by a scalp reaction to yeast, can worsen hair loss, and antifungal treatments may help.
research Telogen Defluxion Associated with Hypersensitivity Causing Alopecia in a Horse
A horse's sudden hair loss was caused by an allergic reaction to a coat conditioning powder.
research Multiple Minute Digitate Hyperkeratosis
The document concludes that fexofenadine reduces inflammation in chronic hives, cholestyramine helps half of pregnant women with itchy rashes, and relaxing incisions are a good alternative in facial surgery for the elderly.
research Skin Cell Heterogeneity in Development, Wound Healing, and Cancer
Different types of skin cells play specific roles in development, healing, and cancer.
research A Comprehensive Pathophysiology of Dandruff and Seborrheic Dermatitis: Towards a More Precise Definition of Scalp Health
The document concludes that dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis are linked to inflammation and skin changes, and treating them with specific shampoos can reduce these issues.
research Acneiform Dermatoses
Some skin conditions look like acne but are caused by drugs, and they usually get better when the drug is stopped.
research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research Investigation of Hair Shaft in Seborrheic Dermatitis Using Atomic Force Microscopy
Hair from people with seborrheic dermatitis is thicker scaled, more damaged, and thinner than healthy hair, and atomic force microscopy can help monitor the condition.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Australian Hair and Wool Research Society Cutaneous Biology and Endocrinology Workshop
The workshop highlighted the genetic links and psychological impacts of hair loss and skin disorders.
research A Model System for Long-Term Serum-Free Suspension Organ Culture of Human Fetal Tissues: Experiments on Digits and Skin from Multiple Body Regions
Scientists developed a method to grow human fetal skin and digits in a lab for 3-4 weeks, which could help study skin features and understand genetic interactions in tissue formation.
research Self-Assessment of a 13-Year-Old Cat with Severe Alopecia, Erythema, and Pruritus Leading to a Diagnosis of Paraneoplastic Alopecia
The cat's skin condition was linked to cancer and did not improve with treatment, leading to a poor outcome.
research Genome-Wide Association Study of Skin Complex Diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research Dermatologic Investigation of Alopecia in Rhesus Macaques (Macaca Mulatta)
Most hair loss in captive rhesus macaques is likely due to environmental and behavioral factors.
research Skin Manifestations of Endocrine Diseases
Hormone imbalances from endocrine diseases can cause various skin conditions that help diagnose and treat these diseases early.
research Porokeratotic Eccrine Duct and Hair Follicle Nevus (PEHFN) Associated with Keratitis-Ichthyosis-Deafness (KID) Syndrome
A 15-year-old with KID syndrome developed a rare skin condition called PEHFN.
research Porokeratotic Adnexal Ostial Nevus: Review on the Entity and Therapeutic Approach
Laser treatments are the most effective for porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus.
research Characterization of CD4+ Stem Cells of the Skin and Their Role in Skin Homeostasis and Tumorigenesis
CD4+ skin cells may be precursors to basal cell carcinoma.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Olmsted Syndrome Caused by a Heterozygous p.Gly568Val Missense Mutation in TRPV3 Gene
A specific gene mutation causes Olmsted syndrome.
research Is Low-Level Laser Therapy Useful as an Adjunctive Treatment for Canine Acral Lick Dermatitis? A Randomized, Double-Blinded, Sham-Controlled Study
Low-level laser therapy did not reduce licking or improve lesions in dogs with ALD but did increase hair growth.
research Interventions for Nail Psoriasis
Some systemic treatments work for nail psoriasis but can have serious side effects.
research Compartmentalized Epidermal Activation of β-Catenin Differentially Affects Lineage Reprogramming and Underlies Tumor Heterogeneity
Activating β-catenin in different skin stem cells causes various types of hair growth and skin tumors.
research Secondary Cicatricial and Other Permanent Alopecias
The document concludes that permanent hair loss conditions are complex, require early specific treatments, and "secondary permanent alopecias" might be a more accurate term than "secondary cicatricial alopecia."
research Urticaria Pigmentosa-Like Skin Disease in a Domestic Shorthair Cat
A cat with severe skin issues improved with dexamethasone and cetirizine.
