Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.

Hair follicles evolved from oil glands, with hair aiding secretion transport.

Stem cell niches are crucial for regulating stem cell renewal and differentiation, and understanding them can help in developing regenerative therapies.

The cause and importance of misplaced oil glands in the hair follicle are not well understood.

Humans have limited regenerative abilities, but new evidence shows the adult brain and heart can regenerate, and future treatments may improve this by mimicking stem cell environments.

Testosterone can both promote hair growth and cause baldness by affecting hair growth signals.

Puberty often causes skin issues like acne and excessive sweating, and treatments require patience as results may vary.

LLLT helps treat hair loss by increasing blood flow, reducing inflammation, and stimulating growth factors.

We now understand more about what causes acne and this could lead to better, more personalized treatments.

Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.

Hair restoration has evolved from surgery to drugs to potential gene therapy, with improved results and ongoing research driven by high demand.

Male pattern baldness may be caused by factors like poor blood circulation, scalp tension, stress, and hormonal imbalances, but the exact causes are still unclear.

Low testosterone and 5α-reductase inhibitors can harm men's metabolic and sexual health; testosterone therapy may help, but discussing 5α-RIs' side effects is important.

Hair restoration surgery techniques have evolved, with focus on patient selection and realistic goals, and future advancements may include cloning and gene therapy.

Scientists discovered that certain stem cells from mice and humans can be used to grow new hair follicles and skin glands when treated with a special mixture.

Stem cells are key for the growth, upkeep, and repair of sebaceous glands and for understanding skin disorders.

Sebaceous glands can help harvest hair follicle stem cells to regenerate skin and hair.

Removing Lrig1-positive stem cells in mice causes temporary loss of sebaceous glands.

Adult stem cells from rat whisker follicles can regenerate hair follicles and sebaceous glands.

c-Myc activation in mouse skin increases sebaceous gland growth and affects hair follicle development.

Hair follicle stem cells can generate all hair cell types, skin, and sebaceous glands.

Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing the skin and hair, using a complex mix of signals to do so.

Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.

Different types of stem cells in hair follicles play unique roles in wound healing and hair growth, with some stem cells not originating from existing hair follicles but from non-hair follicle cells. WNT signaling and the Lhx2 factor are key in creating new hair follicles.

Scientists turned mouse stem cells into skin cells that can grow into skin layers and structures.

Skin stem cells maintain and repair the outer layer of skin, with some types being essential for healing wounds.

The vitamin D receptor is essential for skin stem cells to grow, move, and become different cell types needed for skin healing.

Androgen receptor activity blocks Wnt/β-catenin signaling, affecting hair growth and skin cell balance.

Disrupting Smad4 in mouse skin causes early hair follicle stem cell activity that leads to their eventual depletion.

Damaged hair follicle stem cells can cause permanent hair loss, but understanding their role could lead to new treatments.
