Special proteins are important for skin balance, healing, and aging, and affect skin stem cells.
research Investigation of Transcriptional Gene Profiling in Normal Murine Hair Follicular Substructures Using Next-Generation Sequencing to Provide Potential Insights into Skin Disease
Hair follicles have a more inactive cell cycle than other skin cells, which may help develop targeted therapies for skin diseases and cancer.
research Establishment and Characterization of Matched Immortalized Human Frontal and Occipital Scalp Dermal Papilla Cell Lines from Androgenetic Alopecia
Scientists created cell lines from balding patients and found that cells from the front of the scalp are more affected by hormones that cause hair loss than those from the back.
research Regulation of BMP Signaling in Melanogenesis, Pigment Transfer, and Melanocyte Migration
BMP signaling is important for skin color, affecting melanin production, pigment spread, and cell movement.
research Proceedings of the Ninth World Congress for Hair Research 2015
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.
research Comparative Regenerative Biology of Spiny (Acomys Cahirinus) and Laboratory (Mus Musculus) Mouse Skin
Spiny mice are better at regenerating hair after injury than laboratory mice and could help us understand how to improve human skin repair.
research A Kaleidoscope of Keratin Gene Expression and the Mosaic of Its Regulatory Mechanisms
Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.
research Generating Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells with a High-Efficiency, Non-Invasive Method: An Improved Way to Cultivate Keratinocytes from Plucked Hair for Reprogramming
The conclusion is that the new method makes collecting cells from plucked hair to create stem cells more efficient and less invasive.
research Mediator 1 Ablation Induces Enamel-to-Hair Lineage Conversion in Mice Through Enhancer Dynamics
Removing Mediator 1 from certain mouse cells causes teeth to grow hair instead of enamel.
research Dermal EZH2 Simultaneously Orchestrates Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Dependent Dermal Differentiation and Retinoic Acid Signaling Dependent Epidermal Proliferation During Murine Skin Development
Ezh2 controls skin development by balancing signals for dermal and epidermal growth.
research Hedgehog Signaling Reprograms Hair Follicle Niche Fibroblasts to a Hyper-Activated State
Overactivating Hedgehog signaling makes hair follicle cells in mice grow hair faster and create more follicles.
research Sox21 Regulates Anapc10 Expression and Determines the Fate of Ectodermal Organs
Sox21 is crucial for tooth development and enamel formation by preventing cells from changing into a different type.
research Stabilization of Epithelial Beta-Catenin Compromises Mammary Cell Fate Acquisition and Branching Morphogenesis
Keeping β-catenin levels high in mammary cells disrupts their development and branching.
research Direct Cellular Reprogramming Enables Development of Viral T Antigen-Driven Merkel Cell Carcinoma in Mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research The Structure and Organization of Lanceolate Mechanosensory Complexes at Mouse Hair Follicles
Lanceolate complexes in mouse hair follicles are essential for touch and depend on specific cells for maintenance and regeneration.
research Platelet-Rich Plasma in Dermatology: New Insights on the Cellular Mechanism of Skin Repair and Regeneration
PRP helps skin heal, possibly through special cells called telocytes.
research Local Microenvironment Provides Important Cues for Cell Differentiation in Lingual Epithelia
The local environment is crucial for cell development in the tongue.
research Increased Expression of Zyxin and Its Potential Function in Androgenetic Alopecia
Inhibiting Zyxin may help treat androgenetic alopecia by promoting hair growth.
research A Counter Gradient of Activin A and Follistatin Instructs the Timing of Hair Cell Differentiation in the Murine Cochlea
Activin A promotes ear hair cell development, while follistatin delays it.
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
research Biofabrication of Human Skin with Its Appendages
Current methods can't fully recreate skin and its features, and more research is needed for clinical use.
research Melatonin Promotes Hair Regeneration by Modulating the Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling Pathway
Melatonin helps hair grow by activating a specific signaling pathway.
