research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Experimental Induction of Alopecia Areata-Like Hair Loss in C3H/HeJ Mice Using Full-Thickness Skin Grafts
Skin grafts on mice can cause an immune response leading to hair loss, useful for studying human hair loss conditions.
research Facial Determinants of Female Gender and Feminizing Forehead Cranioplasty
Forehead modification greatly increases the perception of femininity and is a safe procedure.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
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 Oxidative Stress in Aging of Hair
Oxidative stress contributes to hair graying and loss as we age.
research Structural Abnormalities of the Hair Shaft
The document concludes that understanding hair structure is key to diagnosing hair abnormalities and recommends gentle hair care for management.
research Targeting the Janus Kinase Family in Autoimmune Skin Diseases
Janus kinase inhibitors are promising treatments for autoimmune skin diseases like eczema and psoriasis.
research The Role of Androgen and Androgen Receptor in Skin-Related Disorders
Targeting androgen receptors could be a promising way to treat skin disorders with fewer side effects.
research Effects of In Utero Exposure to Finasteride on Androgen-Dependent Reproductive Development in Male Rats
Exposure to finasteride in the womb caused lasting reproductive issues in male rats.
research Macrophages Induce AKT/β-Catenin-Dependent Lgr5+ Stem Cell Activation and Hair Follicle Regeneration Through TNF
Macrophages help regrow hair by activating stem cells using AKT/β-catenin and TNF.
research Biology of the Wool Follicle: An Excursion into a Unique Tissue Interaction System Waiting to Be Rediscovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research Local Circadian Clock Gates Cell Cycle Progression of Transient Amplifying Cells During Regenerative Hair Cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Microenvironmental Reprogramming of Thymic Epithelial Cells to Skin Multipotent Stem Cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
research Smoking and the Skin: Effects and Therapeutic Potential
Smoking harms the skin, causing early aging and increasing cancer risk, but stopping smoking can improve skin health.
research Persistent Sexual Side Effects of Finasteride: Could They Be Permanent?
Finasteride may cause long-lasting sexual side effects.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Long-Term Complications of Stevens-Johnson Syndrome/Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis: The Spectrum of Chronic Problems in Survivors Necessitates Multidisciplinary Follow-Up
Survivors of Stevens-Johnson syndrome/toxic epidermal necrolysis need ongoing care for various long-term health problems.
research Androgenetic Alopecia: Clinical Features, Classification, and Treatments
Male pattern hair loss is genetic and influenced by hormones, with treatments like minoxidil and surgery available.
research Neural Mechanisms of Hair Growth Control
Nerves and chemicals in the body can affect hair growth and loss.
research Androgens and Androgen Receptor Action in Skin and Hair Follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia: Comprehensive Overview and Clinical Management
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and a multidisciplinary approach are crucial for managing Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia effectively.
research Alopecia Areata: A Comprehensive Review of Pathogenesis and Management
New treatments for Alopecia Areata show promise but need to be more effective and affordable.
research Tissue Regenerative Delays and Synthetic Lethality in Adult Mice After Combined Deletion of ATR and TRP53
Removing both Atr and Trp53 genes in adult mice causes severe tissue damage and death due to DNA damage.
research Aging of Hair
Hair ages due to genetics and environmental factors, leading to graying and thinning, with treatments available for some conditions.
research Hormonal Regulation of Hair Follicles Exhibits a Biological Paradox
Androgens can both stimulate and cause hair loss, and understanding their effects is key to treating hair disorders.
research Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research WNT10A Mutation Causes Ectodermal Dysplasia by Impairing Progenitor Cell Proliferation and KLF4-Mediated Differentiation
A WNT10A gene mutation leads to ectodermal dysplasia by disrupting cell growth and differentiation.
