July 2017 in “The Journal of Dermatology” This letter to the editor notes a case where alopecia developed as pemphigus foliaceus transitioned to pemphigus vulgaris; it provides no new experimental findings.
5 citations
,
April 2024 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” This study observed that in adult mice, a cell-autonomous size control mechanism involving the RB pathway determines the timing of S phase entry in epidermal stem cells based on their size, while external microenvironment factors influence growth rates but not this intrinsic coupling.
3 citations
,
July 2023 in “The journal of investigative dermatology/Journal of investigative dermatology” In this study, researchers found that K17−/− mice suffered more severe hair follicle damage but showed reduced epidermal inflammation after ionizing radiation, with K17's absence leading to aberrant cell cycle progression due to altered p53 genome binding and reduced B-Myb degradation.
3 citations
,
May 2022 in “Clinical and experimental dermatology” This review discusses potential EMT-targeting drugs for treating lichen planopilaris and emphasizes the need for clinical trials, as current evidence is limited to individual cases or case series.
3 citations
,
June 1993 in “Hair transplant forum international” This abstract reports on a presentation at a meeting that detailed the hair restoration of a patient with Norwood Class 5 pattern using 1,325 four-haired minigrafts, but it provides no clinical results.
2 citations
,
October 2022 in “International journal of Ayurvedic medicine” This review examines the traditional uses and biological activities of Glycyrrhiza glabra in Ayurveda, but reports no new clinical results; the authors identify a gap in evidence supporting its medicinal potential.
2 citations
,
January 2022 in “International Journal of Medical Sciences” In this study, kartogenin promoted hair growth by enhancing cell proliferation and migration in vitro and extended hair length in mice, suggesting its potential as a treatment for hair loss.
2 citations
,
April 2021 in “International Journal of Molecular Sciences” This study found that the culture conditions, not species-specific differences, determined whether sika deer dermal papilla cells adopted a 3D spheroidal or 2D monolayer growth pattern, influencing their hair-inducing ability.
1 citations
,
October 2025 in “Nature Communications” This study observed that, in mouse ear epidermal stem cells, a cell-autonomous size control mechanism involving the RB pathway dictates S phase entry timing based on cell size, despite external environmental variations affecting growth rates.
1 citations
,
April 2024 in “Cells” This review summarizes recent insights into corneal limbal stem cell differentiation and the potential role of progenitor-like cells, but reports no new experimental results.
1 citations
,
November 2023 in “Biomedicines” In this article, researchers link menopause to hair follicle lifecycle changes, noting that estrogen decline, metabolic shifts, genetics, and stress can contribute to hair thinning and texture variation, although effects differ among women.
June 2026 in “bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)” In this study, researchers used embryonic chicken skin as a model to show that perturbing calcium signaling can induce feather bud formation in areas that typically do not form them, highlighting developmental bioelectricity as a crucial yet underexplored layer in tissue patterning.
June 2026 in “Frontiers in Immunology” This review discusses the role of epithelial–mesenchymal transition in cutaneous fibrotic disorders and highlights potential molecular targets for therapy, but reports no new clinical results.
May 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This study describes a novel cancer therapy, ONCO-NK-TRANSITION-GM1, that offers a 60-80% cure rate across multiple cancer types using existing pharmaceutical manufacturing technologies, and costs $50 per dose, presenting a more accessible alternative to current therapies.
May 2026 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this study, researchers described ONCO-NK-TRANSITION-GM1, a cancer therapy that's manufacturable with current pharmaceutical methods, showing a 60-80% complete response rate across various cancer types and costing $50 per dose, providing a more accessible alternative to existing treatments.
