research Wound Healing and the Use of Medicinal Plants
Some medicinal plants can help heal wounds and may lead to new treatments.
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 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 Periodontal Ligament Stem Cells: Regenerative Potency in Periodontium
Periodontal ligament stem cells show promise for regrowing tissues but require more research for safe, effective use.
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 dsRNA Released by Tissue Damage Activates TLR3 to Drive Skin Regeneration
Damage to skin releases dsRNA, which activates TLR3 and helps in skin and hair follicle regeneration.
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.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Physiological and Retinoid-Induced Proliferations of Epidermis Basal Keratinocytes Are Differently Controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine: Achievements, Future, and Sustainability in Asia
Asia has made significant progress in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, but wider clinical use requires more development.
research Hormones and the Pilosebaceous Unit
Hormones significantly affect hair and oil gland function in the skin, and more research is needed on skin-related hormone disorders.
research Control of Hair Follicle Cell Fate by Underlying Mesenchyme Through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 Regulatory Axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
research Growth Factors in Hair Organ Development and the Hair Growth Cycle
Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.
research The Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.
research The Hair Growth Promoting Effect of Asiasari Radix Extract and Its Molecular Regulation
Asiasari radix extract promotes hair growth and increases protein synthesis and cell proliferation.
research Learning From Nudity: Lessons From The Nude Phenotype
The Foxn1 gene mutation causes hairlessness and immune system issues, and understanding it could lead to hair growth disorder treatments.
research Concise Review: Tissue-Engineered Skin and Nerve Regeneration in Burn Treatment
New methods for skin and nerve regeneration can improve healing and feeling after burns.
research Melanin Pigmentary Disorders: Treatment Update
Treatments for melanin disorders exist, but more effective options needed.
research Activin Controls Skin Morphogenesis and Wound Repair Predominantly via Stromal Cells and in a Concentration-Dependent Manner via Keratinocytes
Activin helps skin growth and healing mainly through stromal cells and affects keratinocytes based on its amount.
research Applications of Platelet-Rich Plasma in Dermatology: A Critical Appraisal of the Literature
Platelet-rich plasma may have some benefits in dermatology, but there's not enough evidence to widely recommend its use.
research Skin Connective Tissue and Aging
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Human Hair Follicles Are an Extrarenal Source and a Nonhematopoietic Target of Erythropoietin
Human hair follicles produce and respond to erythropoietin, helping protect against stress.
research Next Generation Human Skin Constructs as Advanced Tools for Drug Development
Advanced human skin models improve drug development and could replace animal testing.
research Ectopic Expression of the Nude Gene Induces Hyperproliferation and Defects in Differentiation: Implications for the Self-Renewal of Cutaneous Epithelia
The nude gene causes skin cell overgrowth and improper development, leading to hair and urinary issues.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Toll-Like Receptor Function in Acute Wounds
