research Regulating Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Special immune cells called Treg cells are important for maintaining and regenerating hair by activating a specific growth signal in hair stem cells.
research An Immune Regulatory CCT Repeat Containing Oligodeoxynucleotide Capable of Causing Hair Loss in Male Mice
A specific DNA sequence caused hair loss in male mice by activating immune cells and increasing a certain immune signal.
research Scarring Hair Follicle Destruction Is Driven by the Collapse of EGFR-Protected JAK-STAT1-Sensitive Stem Cell Immune Privilege
A protein called EGFR protects hair follicle stem cells, and when it's disrupted, hair follicles can be damaged, but blocking certain pathways can restore hair growth.
research Myeloid Cell-Specific Deletion of mTOR Suppresses Psoriasis-Like Skin Inflammation in C57BL/6 Mice
Targeting mTOR in myeloid cells may help reduce psoriasis symptoms.
research The Editor's Choice: Summary of Studies on Skin and Hair Conditions
UV radiation may cause DNA changes in skin, certain UVB therapy helps psoriasis, a new gene mutation is linked to mild piebaldism, different immune cells affect psoriasis, a drug promotes hair growth, and some cancer drugs could treat skin barrier issues.
research Expression of Programmed Cell Death 1 Inversely Correlated With the Density of CD8+ T Cells Infiltrating Hair Follicles in Alopecia Areata
Higher PD-1 levels are linked to fewer immune cells in hair follicles in alopecia areata.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of FGF9 from Dermal γδ T Cells Induces Hair Follicle Neogenesis After Wounding
A substance called FGF9 from certain immune cells can trigger new hair growth during wound healing in mice, but humans may not have the same response due to fewer of these cells.
research Fisetin Promotes Differentiation, Inhibits Proliferative and Inflammatory Responses in Cultured Human Cells and Alleviates Psoriasiform Dermatitis in Mice
Fisetin may help treat psoriasis and reduce skin inflammation.
research Clinical Snippets: Dermatological Findings and Insights
A hormone affects hair growth, certain molecules may prevent skin damage, a skin disease is linked to immune cells, glycerol helps skin hydration, and psoriasis treatment trials need improvement.
research Editors' Picks
ANp63 is crucial for skin integrity, new filaggrin gene mutations link to eczema, hair can regrow from non-stem cells, sunburns are increasing, and glucocorticoids help treat skin allergies by affecting immune cells.
research The Important Role of Leptin in Modulating the Risk of Dermatological Diseases
Leptin, a hormone from fat cells, affects immune responses and can influence skin diseases and hair growth.
research Deciphering the Functions of the Hair Follicle Infundibulum in Skin Physiology and Disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Getting to the Root of Hair Loss in Alopecia
Specific immune cells cause alopecia areata and blocking certain proteins can prevent it.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Dermal Adipocyte Lipolysis and Myofibroblast Conversion Are Required for Efficient Skin Repair
Fat cells in the skin help start healing and form important repair cells after injury.
research Injury-Induced Interleukin-1 Alpha Promotes Lgr5 Hair Follicle Stem Cells Regeneration and Proliferation via Regulating Regenerative Microenvironment in Mice
The protein interleukin-1 alpha helps regenerate hair follicles and increase stem cell growth in mice.
research Translational Frontiers: Insight From Lymphatics in Skin Regeneration
Lymphatic vessels are important for skin repair and could affect skin disease treatments.
research Biological Effects of Electrical Epilation on Human Hair Follicles and Perifollicular Skin Ex Vivo
Electrical epilation damages hair follicles and surrounding skin, likely preventing hair regrowth.
research Proceedings of the Heinz Maurer-Symposium: Review and Preview in Science for Healthy Skin, June 28, 2014, Jakobsberg, Boppard, Germany
The symposium concluded that environmental factors significantly contribute to skin aging.
research Activating an Adaptive Immune Response from a Hydrogel Scaffold Imparts Regenerative Wound Healing
Hydrogel scaffolds can help wounds heal better and grow hair.
research Skin Wound Healing in Humans and Mice: Challenges in Translational Research
The document concludes that mouse models are helpful but have limitations for skin wound healing research, and suggests using larger animals and genetically modified mice for better human application.
research TRP Channels in Skin Biology and Pathophysiology
TRP channels in the skin are important for sensation and health, and targeting them could help treat skin disorders.
research New Aspects of Langerhans' Cell Function
Langerhans cells are crucial for skin immunity and allergic reactions.
research In Situ Detection of Retinoid-X Receptor Expression in Normal and Psoriatic Human Skin
RXR-alpha is strongly expressed in both normal and psoriatic skin and may help in skin cell differentiation and hair growth.
