420-450 / 1000+ resultsresearch Eruptive Vellus Hair Cysts: An Underdiagnosed Entity
Eruptive vellus hair cysts are often missed in diagnoses.
research Activity of Type 1 5α-Reductase Is Greater in the Follicular Infrainfundibulum Compared with the Epidermis
The enzyme type 1 5α-reductase is more active in the hair follicle's lower part than in the skin's outer layer.
research Matriptase Expression and Zymogen Activation in Human Pilosebaceous Unit
Matriptase is highly active in hair follicles and sebaceous glands, especially during hair growth phases.
research Molecular Interactions of Natural and Synthetic Steroids in Female Hamsters’ Flank Organs
Testosterone, progesterone, and levonorgestrel change enzyme levels related to fat production in hamster skin, which could affect skin oil and acne.
research Trichoscopy in the Healthy Female: Method Standardization and Norms for Measurable Parameters
Researchers established normal hair and scalp characteristics for healthy women using trichoscopy.
research Comedone Formation: Etiology, Clinical Presentation, and Treatment
Blocked hair follicles cause acne, and studying tiny early acne spots helps understand its severity.
research The Distribution of Estrogen Receptor Beta Is Distinct to That of Estrogen Receptor Alpha and the Androgen Receptor in Human Skin and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Estrogen Receptor ß (ERß) is the main hormone controller in human skin and hair follicles, not Estrogen Receptor α (ERα) or the Androgen Receptor (AR).
research Subclinical Speckled Perifollicular Melanosis of the Scalp
The scalp has a natural speckled pattern of increased pigment around hair follicles, possibly linked to local hormone production.
research Estrogen and Progesterone Receptors in Androgenic Alopecia Versus Alopecia Areata
Estrogen and progesterone don't directly affect hair growth in androgenic alopecia and alopecia areata.
research Localization of Varicella-Zoster Virus Nucleic Acids and Proteins in Human Skin
The research found that chickenpox virus spreads in skin through blood then to skin cells, while shingles virus moves from nerves to hair follicle areas before infecting skin cells.
research Human Pilosebaceous Culture
Hair follicle cells can help heal wounds and study skin diseases.
research A Pilot Study of ICG Laser Therapy of Acne Vulgaris: Photodynamic and Photothermolysis Treatment
ICG-enhanced NIR laser therapy may be a promising acne treatment with improvement and no side effects.
research Frontiers in the Neuroendocrine Controls of Hair Growth
Hair growth and health are influenced by stress and hormones.
research Hair Follicle Stem Cells: Insights from the 2003 Workshop
Hair follicle stem cells can generate all hair cell types, skin, and sebaceous glands.
research Trichoscopic Findings in Androgenetic Alopecia
Trichoscopy, a hair loss evaluation technique, found that people with Androgenetic Alopecia have more thin hairs, yellow dots, and perifollicular discoloration than healthy individuals.
research Immunocytochemical Localization of Androgen Receptors in the Scalp of the Stumptail Macaque Monkey, a Model of Androgenetic Alopecia
Androgen receptors found in monkey scalps, similar to humans, affect hair growth.
research Transfollicular Drug Delivery: Current Perspectives
Transfollicular drug delivery is promising but needs more research to improve and understand it better.
research A Case of Unusual Comedogenesis in Alopecia Totalis
A man with total hair loss developed blackhead-like spots on his scalp, possibly because no hair was present to help drain oils.
research Targeting to the Hair Follicles: Current Status and Potential
Hair follicles are promising targets for delivering drugs effectively.
research Development and Characterization of Minoxidil-Loaded Liposomal System for Delivery to Pilosebaceous Units
Minoxidil-loaded liposomes effectively deliver to hair follicles, potentially improving hair growth and treating alopecia.
research Adnexae
The document showed detailed images of skin structures and discussed skin diseases and their diagnosis.
research Flutamide-Loaded Zein Nanocapsule Hydrogel: A Promising Dermal Delivery System for Pilosebaceous Unit Disorders
The flutamide-loaded hydrogel is a promising, skin-friendly treatment for acne and hair loss, potentially requiring less frequent application.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research Acne
Don't ignore acne treatment to avoid scars and emotional trauma.
research Comment on Malloy (2008): James Watson Tells the Inconvenient Truth and Faces the Consequences
The conclusion suggests a new treatment for infantile hemangiomas and a potential target for hair loss treatment.
research New Insight Into the Immunostaining Method Suitable for the Pilosebaceous Complex Unit
The study found that a one-step antibody method is better than the LSAB method for accurately studying hair follicle structures without false positives.
research Microemulsion Formulation of Aloe Vera Gel and Apium Graveolens Ethanol Extract for Optimizing Hair Growth Promotion
Aloe vera and celery extract in microemulsion form significantly improve hair growth.
