research Noggin Is Required for Induction of the Hair Follicle Growth Phase in Postnatal Skin
Noggin is necessary to start the hair growth phase in skin after birth.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Pregnancy and Skin: Changes and Dermatoses
Most skin changes during pregnancy are harmless and temporary, but some can risk the fetus and need careful treatment.
research Bioengineering Skin Using Mechanisms of Regeneration and Repair
Artificial skin development has challenges, but new materials and understanding cell behavior could improve tissue repair. Also, certain growth factors and hydrogel technology show promise for advanced skin replacement therapies.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
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 Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Sulfation Mechanisms in the Biological Actions of Minoxidil
Minoxidil needs activation to work, and minoxidil sulfate helps with hair growth and blood pressure.
research Acidic and Basic Hair/Nail (Hard) Keratins: Their Colocalization in Upper Cortical and Cuticle Cells of the Human Hair Follicle and Their Relationship to Soft Keratins
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research Tumor Promotion in Skin: Are Active Oxygen Species Involved?
Active oxygen species might be involved in skin tumor growth, but their exact role is unclear.
research A Hairy Situation: PADIs in Regeneration and Alopecia
Enzymes called PADIs play a key role in hair growth and loss.
research DNA Dioxygenases Tet2/3 Regulate Gene Promoter Accessibility and Chromatin Topology in Lineage-Specific Loci to Control Epithelial Differentiation
The enzymes Tet2 and Tet3 are important for skin cell development and hair growth.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
Understanding glycans and enzymes that alter them is key to controlling hair growth.
research Low-Level Light Therapy for Cosmetics and Dermatology
Low-Level Light Therapy is effective for skin rejuvenation, wound healing, and hair growth, with mild side effects.
research Human Hair Follicle: An Update on Biology and Perspectives in Hair Growth Disorders Treatment
New treatments for hair growth disorders are needed due to limited current options and complex hair follicle biology.
research Cosmeceuticals in Dermatology
Cosmeceuticals may benefit skin health but need more research for efficacy and safety confirmation.
research The Management of Postacne Scarring
New treatments for acne scars are safer and more effective because we understand the causes better.
research Cystatin M/E Is a High Affinity Inhibitor of Cathepsin V and Cathepsin L by a Reactive Site Distinct from the Legumain-binding Site
Cystatin M/E strongly inhibits cathepsin V and cathepsin L, important for skin formation.
