research Prostaglandin D2 Inhibits Hair Growth and Is Elevated in Bald Scalp of Men with Androgenetic Alopecia
PGD2 stops hair growth and is higher in bald men with AGA.
research Tissue Engineering of Human Hair Follicles Using a Biomimetic Developmental Approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Cutaneous Scarring: Basic Science, Current Treatments, and Future Directions
New effective scar treatments are urgently needed due to the current options' limited success.
research Effects of Sex Steroid Deprivation and Administration on Hair Growth and Skin Sebum Production in Transsexual Males and Females
Hormone treatments in transsexual individuals reduce hair growth and oil production in male-to-females and increase them in female-to-males.
research Action of Isotretinoin in Acne Rosacea and Gram-Negative Folliculitis
Isotretinoin is highly effective in treating severe acne, rosacea, and gram-negative folliculitis.
research Endocrinology of Transgender Medicine
Hormone treatments for transgender individuals generally improve mental health and physical transition, with some health risks that require medical supervision.
research Low-Level Laser Therapy for Treatment of Hair Loss
Low-Level Laser Therapy is effective and safe for hair growth with minimal side effects.
research The Hair Follicle as an Estrogen Target and Source
Estrogens significantly influence hair growth by interacting with receptors in hair follicles and may help regulate the hair growth cycle.
research Epithelial Stem Cells And Implications For Wound Repair
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.
research Molecular Biology of Hair Morphogenesis: Development and Cycling
Understanding hair growth involves complex interactions between molecules and could help treat hair disorders.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: A Review
Male pattern baldness involves genetics, hormones, and needs better treatments.
research Gender Differences in Skin: A Review of the Literature
Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.
research Estrogens and Aging Skin
Estrogen therapy can reduce skin aging but has cancer risks.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
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 Signaling in the Stem Cell Niche: Regulating Cell Fate, Function, and Plasticity
The niche environment controls stem cell behavior and plasticity, which is important for tissue health and repair.
research Vitamin D and the Skin: Focus on a Complex Relationship
Vitamin D is important for skin health and may affect conditions like psoriasis and hair loss, but more research is needed to understand its role fully.
research Linking Diet to Acne Metabolomics, Inflammation, and Comedogenesis: An Update
Eating less sugar, milk, and saturated fats and more vegetables and fish may help treat and prevent acne.
research EEMCO Guidance for the In Vivo Assessment of Skin Greasiness
The document recommends using both clinical evaluation and various measurement methods to assess skin greasiness, considering factors like temperature and hormones.
research Stem Cell Dynamics in the Hair Follicle Niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research Acne, the Skin Microbiome, and Antibiotic Treatment
Antibiotics can reduce acne but may lead to resistant bacteria, and understanding the skin's bacteria is important for treatment.
research The Disintegrin/Metalloproteinase Adam10 Is Essential for Epidermal Integrity and Notch-Mediated Signaling
Adam10 enzyme is crucial for healthy skin and proper Notch signaling.
research Human Scalp Hair Follicles Are Both a Target and a Source of Prolactin, Which Serves as an Autocrine and/or Paracrine Promoter of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
Prolactin contributes to hair loss by promoting hair follicle shrinkage and cell death.
