research Differential Molecular Signature of Dermal Papilla Cells from Balding and Non-Balding Scalp in 2D, 3D Culture and Co-Culture with Adipose-Derived Stem Cells
Dermal Papilla Cells grown in 3D and with stem cells better mimic natural hair growth conditions than cells grown in 2D.
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 All Roads Lead to the Nucleus: Integration of Signaling, Transcription Factor-Mediated, and Epigenetic Regulatory Mechanisms in the Control of Skin Development and Regeneration
The nucleus is key in controlling skin growth and repair by coordinating signals, gene regulators, and epigenetic changes.
research Integration of Biochemical and Mechanical Signals at the Nuclear Periphery: Impacts on Skin Development and Disease
The conclusion is that the nuclear lamina and LINC complex in skin cells respond to mechanical signals, affecting gene expression and cell differentiation, which is important for skin health and can impact skin diseases.
research General Dermatology: Comprehensive Overview of Dermatological Conditions
The document explains various skin conditions and their treatments.
research Errata
The document corrected previous errors and announced future dermatology events.
research First Reboxetine Trial Results Reported
Finasteride increased hair count and regrowth in men with hair loss but also caused more sexual side effects than placebo.
research News in Brief
A new protein linked to Alzheimer's was discovered, and a hair loss treatment showed effectiveness but had some sexual side effects.
research Literature Review on Atopic Dermatitis and Related Studies
Atopic dermatitis may have genetic causes and can be treated with pharmacologic methods, glycerin creams, and controlling Staphylococcus aureus colonization.
research Characterization of the Epidermal-Dermal Junction in hiPSC-Derived Skin Organoids
The study created hair-bearing skin models that lack a key protein for skin layer attachment, limiting their use for certain skin disease research.
