research Transplantation of Bone-Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal and Epidermal Stem Cells Contribute to Wound Healing with Different Regenerative Features
Bone-marrow and epidermal stem cells help heal wounds differently, with bone-marrow cells aiding in blood vessel formation and epidermal cells in hair growth.
research Transgenic Mice Overexpressing CD109 in the Epidermis Display Decreased Inflammation and Granulation Tissue and Improved Collagen Architecture During Wound Healing
Mice genetically modified to produce more CD109 in their skin had less inflammation and better healing with less scarring.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.
research Biomaterials Functionalized with MSC Secreted Extracellular Vesicles and Soluble Factors for Tissue Regeneration
Biomaterials with MSC-derived substances could improve tissue repair and have advantages over direct cell therapy.
research Protein Disulfide Isomerase-Mediated Grafting of Cysteine-Containing Peptides onto Over-Bleached Hair
PDI helps restore over-bleached hair's strength and structure by attaching special peptides.
research Insights into the Regeneration of Skin from Acomys, the Spiny Mouse
The spiny mouse can regenerate its skin without scarring, which could help us learn how to heal human skin better.
research Effect of Equilibrium pH on the Structure and Properties of Bleach-Damaged Human Hair Fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research Development of Predictive Regression Model for Perceived Hair Breakage in Indian Consumers
The model predicts hair breakage based on key hair properties and helps product developers.
research Possible Relationships Between the Physical Conditions of Cattle and the Occurrence of Structural Modifications of Their Coat Hair
Vitamin A deficiency changes cattle hair structure, while pregnancy may improve it, suggesting hair can indicate cattle health.
research Cryogelation of Human Hair Keratins
Human hair keratins can be turned into useful 3D biomedical scaffolds through a freeze-thaw process.
research A Clinical Trial to Investigate the Effect of Cynatine HNS on Hair and Nail Parameters
Cynatine HNS improves hair and nail quality in 90 days.
research Biomechanical Properties of Scalp Flaps and Their Correlations to Reconstructive and Aesthetic Surgery Procedures
Scalp flaps are stiffer than skin from other body areas, which helps in planning reconstructive and cosmetic head surgeries.
research Mesenchymal Stem Cells from Adipose Tissue in Clinical Applications for Dermatological Indications and Skin Aging
Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.
research Erythroid Differentiation Regulator 1 as a Novel Biomarker for Hair Loss Disorders
Erdr1 could be a new marker for diagnosing hair loss.
research Investigation Into the Role of HIF-1A Stabilization in Hair Follicle Metabolism
Stabilizing HIF-1A in hair follicles may reduce oxidative stress and promote hair growth by increasing glycolysis.
research Results of Stage I in a Phase II Randomized Bilateral Comparison of Bexarotene 1% Topical Gel in Alopecia Areata
Bexarotene 1% topical gel helped some patients with alopecia areata regrow hair.
research Evidence-Based Guideline for the Treatment of Androgenetic Alopecia in Women and Men – Short Version
Use minoxidil for hair loss treatment; assess results after 6 months.
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 Treatment of Male Pattern Baldness with Botulinum Toxin: A Pilot Study
Botox increased hair count in men with baldness and might work by improving scalp blood flow.
research Effect of Varied Hair Protein Fractions on the Gel Properties of Keratin/Chitosan Hydrogels for Use in Tissue Engineering
Different hair protein amounts change the strength of keratin/chitosan gels, useful for making predictable tissue engineering materials.
research Tobacco and the Skin: Adverse Effects and Complex Relationships
Smoking harms skin health, causing slower wound healing, more wrinkles, and worsening some skin conditions, but may protect against certain others.
research Mitotic Activity in the Epidermis of the Rabbit Stimulated with Local Applications of Testosterone Propionate
Testosterone applied to rabbit skin increases skin cell growth and changes skin structure.
research A Novel Approach for Follicular Delivery of Minoxidil for Treatment of Alopecia
Scientists developed a new method to deliver alopecia treatment directly to hair follicles, which could be a promising treatment for hair loss and other hair diseases.
research Changes of Curvature with Regain of Set Wool and Hair Fibers
Merino wool fibers change shape with moisture, while human hair shape stays the same.
research Three-Dimensional Reconstructions of Mechanosensory End Organs Suggest a Unifying Mechanism Underlying Dynamic, Light Touch
Dynamic, light touch is sensed through a common mechanism involving Piezo2 channels in sensory axons.
research Trichotillometry: A Technique for Hair Assessment
Trichotillometry is a reliable method to measure hair strength and assess hair loss treatments.
research The Function and Structure of the Skin
The skin protects the body, regulates temperature, senses touch, and makes vitamin D.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Skin Regeneration: Strategies and Innovations
New materials and methods could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
