Using radiation to make mice's hair turn gray helps study and find ways to prevent or reverse hair graying.

Scientists made a mouse that shows how a specific protein in the skin changes and affects hair growth and shape.

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.

New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.

Plet-1 protein helps hair follicle cells move and stick to tissues.

Organoid technology is advancing and entering commercial use, with applications in disease modeling, drug development, and personalized medicine.

Stress may trigger hair loss by affecting immune protection in hair follicles.

Sox21 is crucial for tooth development and enamel formation by preventing cells from changing into a different type.

Some drugs may help treat both COVID-19 and radiation injury.

Researchers created a rat model to study skin damage caused by radiation, which could help develop new treatments.

Blocking certain immune signals can reduce skin damage from radiation therapy.

Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.

miR-29a-5p prevents the formation of early hair structures by targeting a gene important for hair growth and is regulated by a complex network involving lncRNA627.1.

Some existing medicines show promise as safe treatments to protect against the side effects of radiation therapy.

Olfactory receptors found outside the nose may offer new treatments for diseases like cancer and help in wound healing and hair growth.

The 2015 Hair Research Congress concluded that stem cells, maraviroc, and simvastatin could potentially treat Alopecia Areata, topical minoxidil, finasteride, and steroids could treat Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia, and PTGDR2 antagonists could also treat alopecia. They also found that low-level light therapy could help with hair loss, a robotic device could assist in hair extraction, and nutrition could aid hair growth. They suggested that Alopecia Areata is an inflammatory disorder, not a single disease, indicating a need for personalized treatments.

Telocytes might help with skin repair and regeneration.

LEF1 is essential for the development of airway glands and is regulated by the Wnt/ß-catenin pathway.

The document concludes that while significant progress has been made in understanding skin biology and stem cells, more research is needed to fully understand their interactions with their environment.

Muscles and nerves that cause goosebumps also help control hair growth.

Wnt7a protein is crucial for development and tissue maintenance and plays varying roles in diseases and potential treatments.

Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.

New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.

Adult stem cells with Tp63 can form hair and skin cells when placed in new skin, showing they have hidden abilities for skin repair.

Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.

Melatonin, the sleep hormone, can help treat skin conditions like dermatitis, hyperpigmentation, and scalp disorders, and may also aid in skin aging prevention and regeneration. However, it's not recommended for asthma due to its pro-inflammatory effect.

Mechanical force is important for the first contact between skin cells and hair growth in mini-organs.

Understanding how baby skin heals without scars could help develop treatments for adults to heal wounds without leaving scars.

Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.

Frontal fibrosing alopecia can mimic traction alopecia but has distinct features like facial papules and eyebrow thinning.
