Small molecule DMF improves psoriasis and multiple sclerosis, adult skin cells can be made to grow new hair, certain skin cells initiate hair growth, IL-17C controls gut health and can cause skin inflammation, and skin cells produce IL-17 that can lead to psoriasis.
research Book Reviews
The document covers books on cosmetic surgery and skin care, discussing legal and ethical issues, wound healing, the overlap of cosmetics and drugs, and detailed plastic surgery techniques.
research Abstracts from the Symposium on the Pathophysiology of Hair Growth Organized by the Institute of Dermatology at the Royal Society of Medicine, 29 October 1987
The symposium concluded that hair growth involves complex processes, including the hair follicle life cycle, the role of the dermal papilla, hair strength, pigmentation, and the impact of diseases and treatments like minoxidil on hair and skin.
research Cutaneous Overexpression of Cyclooxygenase-2 Models Androgenetic Alopecia in Adult Mice
Cyclooxygenase-2 overexpression in mice skin causes hair loss like human androgenetic alopecia.
research Advances in Skin Grafting and Treatment of Cutaneous Wounds
Skin grafting and wound treatment have improved, but we need more research to better understand wound healing and create more effective treatments.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research Nerve-Derived Sonic Hedgehog Defines a Niche for Hair Follicle Stem Cells Capable of Becoming Epidermal Stem Cells
Nerve signals are crucial for hair follicle stem cells to become skin stem cells and help in wound healing.
research Identification of the Cell Lineage at the Origin of Basal Cell Carcinoma
Basal cell carcinoma mostly starts from cells in the upper skin layers, not hair follicle stem cells.
research The Cutaneous Serotoninergic/Melatoninergic System: Securing a Place Under the Sun
Human skin can make serotonin and melatonin, which help protect and maintain it.
research A Review of Platelet-Rich Plasma: History, Biology, Mechanism of Action, and Classification
Platelet-rich plasma shows promise for skin and hair treatments but needs more research and standardization.
research SKPs Derive from Hair Follicle Precursors and Exhibit Properties of Adult Dermal Stem Cells
