research Molecular Dissection of Mesenchymal–Epithelial Interactions in the Hair Follicle
Understanding gene expression in hair follicles can reveal insights into hair growth and disorders.
research Wound Healing and Skin Regeneration
Hair growth phase and certain genes can speed up wound healing, while an inflammatory mediator can slow down new hair growth after a wound. Understanding these factors can improve tissue regeneration during wound healing.
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 The Dynamics of the Skin’s Immune System
The skin has a complex immune system that is essential for protection and healing, requiring more research for better wound treatment.
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 Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: Toward New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and the Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Stretching the Limits: From Homeostasis to Stem Cell Plasticity in Wound Healing and Cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
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 Dermal Fibroblasts in Cutaneous Development and Healing
Skin cells called dermal fibroblasts are important for skin growth, hair growth, and wound healing.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research Markers of Epidermal Stem Cell Subpopulations in Adult Mammalian Skin
The document concludes that adult mammalian skin contains multiple stem cell populations with specific markers, important for understanding skin regeneration and related conditions.
research Drug Discovery for Alopecia: Gone Today, Hair Tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
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 Choreographing Immunity in the Skin Epithelial Barrier
The document concludes that the skin's immune system is complex, involving interactions with hair follicles, nerves, and microbes, and can protect or cause disease, offering targets for new treatments.
research Skin Organoids: A New Human Model for Developmental and Translational Research
Skin organoids are a promising new model for studying human skin development and testing treatments.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling by EGF Receptor Is Required for Hair Follicle Development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Two-Photon Microscopy for Intracutaneous Imaging of Stem Cell Activity in Mice
Two-photon microscopy effectively tracks live stem cell activity in mouse skin with minimal harm and clear images.
research Hair Follicles and Their Role in Skin Health
Hair follicles are essential for skin health, aiding in hair growth, wound healing, and immune function.
research Melatonin Induces a Stimulatory Action on the Scrotal Skin Components of Soay Ram in the Non-Breeding Season
Melatonin stimulates the skin components of ram's scrotum during their non-breeding season.
research An Efficient, Non-Invasive Approach for In Vivo Sampling of Hair Follicles: Design and Applications in Monitoring DNA Damage and Aging
A new painless method to collect hair follicles helps study DNA damage and aging.
research Human iPS Cell-Derived Cell Aggregates Exhibited Dermal Papilla Cell Properties in In Vitro Three-Dimensional Assemblage Mimicking Hair Follicle Structures
Scientists made structures that look like human hair follicles using stem cells, which could help grow hair without using actual human tissue.
research Regeneration of Hair and Other Skin Appendages: A Microenvironment-Centric View
The microenvironment, especially mechanical forces, plays a crucial role in hair growth and could lead to new treatments for hair loss.
research The Pioneer Factor SOX9 Competes for Epigenetic Factors to Switch Stem Cell Fates
