research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
Blocking Wnt signaling in young mice causes thymus shrinkage and cell loss, but recovery is possible when the block is removed.
research Scoping Review on the Use of Drugs Targeting JAK/STAT Pathway in Atopic Dermatitis, Vitiligo, and Alopecia Areata
Drugs targeting the JAK/STAT pathway can improve atopic dermatitis but vary in effectiveness for vitiligo and alopecia areata, with generally mild safety concerns.
research Bacteria Induce Skin Regeneration via IL-1β Signaling
Skin bacteria, specifically Staphylococcus aureus, help in wound healing and hair growth by using IL-1β signaling. Using antibiotics on skin wounds can slow down this natural healing process.
research Hair Disorders in Patients with Cancer
Cancer treatments often cause hair disorders, significantly affecting patients' quality of life, and better management methods are needed.
research Enzymatic and Non-Enzymatic Sulfation Mechanisms in the Biological Actions of Minoxidil
Minoxidil needs activation to work, and minoxidil sulfate helps with hair growth and blood pressure.
research Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation, and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Mutant Laboratory Mice With Abnormalities in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis, Cycling, and Structure: An Update
The document concludes that mouse models are crucial for studying hair biology and that all mutant mice may have hair growth abnormalities that require detailed analysis to identify.
research Prolactin: An Emerging Force Along the Cutaneous–Endocrine Axis
Prolactin may play a significant role in skin and hair health and could be a target for treating skin and hair disorders.
research BLIMP1 Is Required for Postnatal Epidermal Homeostasis but Does Not Define a Sebaceous Gland Progenitor Under Steady-State Conditions
BLIMP1 is essential for skin maintenance but not for defining sebaceous gland progenitors.
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 Autoimmunity and Autoimmune Co-Morbidities in Psoriasis
Psoriasis is linked to other autoimmune diseases and involves a specific inflammatory process.
research Trichohyalin: Presence in the Granular Layer and Stratum Corneum of Normal Human Epidermis
Trichohyalin is also found in the outer layers of normal human skin.
research Changing the Shape of Hair with Keratin Peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research Different Gene Expression Profile Observed in Dermal Papilla Cells Related to Androgenic Alopecia by DNA Macroarray Analysis
Hair loss in balding individuals is linked to changes in specific hair growth-related genes.
research Repairing the Lungs One Breath at a Time: How Dedicated or Facultative Are You?
Lung repair involves both dedicated and flexible stem cells, important for developing new treatments.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities: Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research To Grow or Not to Grow: Hair Morphogenesis and Human Genetic Hair Disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research Autophagy Is Essential for Maintaining the Growth of a Human Mini-Organ: Evidence from Scalp Hair Follicle Organ Culture
Autophagy is important for human hair growth and health.
research Mutations in the Keratin 85 (KRT85/hHb5) Gene Underlie Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia
Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.
research Congenital Hair Loss Disorders: Rare, But Not Too Rare
Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.
research Eruptive Vellus Hair Cysts: A Systematic Review
Eruptive vellus hair cysts are a cosmetic skin condition, more common in young adults, with few effective treatments.
research Anatomy and Function of the Skin
