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 Protection Against Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
No treatment fully prevents hair loss from chemotherapy yet.
research A Role for p75 Neurotrophin Receptor in the Control of Apoptosis-Driven Hair Follicle Regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
research Light Scattering from Human Hair Fibers
Researchers developed a new model for more realistic computer graphics of hair by considering how light scatters on hair fibers.
research The Dark Art of Light Measurement: Accurate Radiometry for Low-Level Light Therapy
Most low-level light therapy studies did not accurately report how light was measured, affecting treatment reliability.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration in Skin Grafts: Current Concepts and Future Perspectives
Hair follicle regeneration in skin grafts may be possible using stem cells and tissue engineering.
research Knock-Down of Arabidopsis PLC5 Reduces Primary Root Growth and Secondary Root Formation While Overexpression Improves Drought Tolerance and Causes Stunted Root Hair Growth
Changing the amount of PLC5 in Arabidopsis affects root growth and drought resistance, with less PLC5 slowing root growth and more PLC5 improving drought tolerance but hindering root hair growth.
research Dietary Glucoraphanin Prevents the Onset of Psychosis in Adult Offspring After Maternal Immune Activation
Eating glucoraphanin can help prevent psychosis in offspring whose mothers had immune system activation.
research Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein and the PTH Receptor Regulate Angiogenesis of the Skin
PTHrP and its receptor can control blood vessel growth and hair development in mouse skin.
research Phosphatidylinositol-Specific Phospholipase C2 Functions in Auxin-Modulated Root Development
A protein called PLC2 is important for the growth and development of plant roots influenced by auxin.
research Arctiin Blocks Hydrogen Peroxide-Induced Senescence and Cell Death Through MicroRNA Expression Changes in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Arctiin helps protect hair cells from damage and death caused by oxidative stress.
research Expression of Kruppel-Like Factor KLF4 in Mouse Hair Follicle Stem Cells Contributes to Cutaneous Wound Healing
KLF4 is important for maintaining skin stem cells and helps heal wounds.
research Angiogenin Is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Stimulates Hair Growth
Angiogenin helps hair grow by stimulating cell growth and blood vessel formation.
research Azimuthal Scattering from Elliptical Hair Fibers
Light scatters differently from elliptical hair fibers than from circular ones, and a new model better predicts this behavior, especially for shiny highlights.
research Ethyl Acetate Fraction of Eclipta Alba: A Potential Phytopharmaceutical Targeting Adipocyte Differentiation
Eclipta alba extract may help treat obesity by blocking fat cell formation and lowering blood lipid levels.
research An Ovarian Leydig Cell Tumor Undetected by Ultrasound in a Postmenopausal Woman with Hirsutism and Hyperandrogenism
A postmenopausal woman's hirsutism and high testosterone levels improved after surgery for an ovarian tumor not seen on ultrasound.
research A Herbal Formula, Comprising Panax Ginseng and Bee-Pollen, Inhibits Development of Testosterone-Induced Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia in Male Wistar Rats
A mix of Panax ginseng and bee-pollen may help prevent prostate enlargement in rats.
research Repigmentation of Gray Hair After Thyroid Hormone Treatment
Gray hair regained color after thyroid hormone treatment.
research Integrin α3β1 in Hair Bulge Stem Cells Modulates CCN2 Expression and Promotes Skin Tumorigenesis
Removing integrin α3β1 from hair stem cells lowers skin tumor growth by affecting CCN2 protein levels.
research Selenium Toxicity in Domestic Animals
Selenium can be toxic to animals, causing serious health issues, especially in horses.
research Internal Structure Changes in Bleached Black Human Hair Resulting from Chemical Treatments: A Raman Spectroscopic Investigation
Chemical treatments on bleached black hair change its internal structure by breaking and reforming bonds, and treatments with hydrolyzed eggwhite protein help repair it.
research Ascorbigen Induces Dermal Papilla Cell Proliferation In Vitro, But Fails To Modulate Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia In Vivo
Ascorbigen increases hair cell growth in a lab setting but does not prevent hair loss from chemotherapy in mice.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research The Effect of Experimental Hypothyroidism on the Skin of Adult Male Albino Rats and the Therapeutic Role of Topical Triiodothyronine
Hypothyroidism harms rat skin, but topical triiodothyronine may help improve it.
research A New Technique for Quantitative Analysis of Hair Loss in Mice Using Grayscale Analysis
Researchers developed a new, precise method to measure hair loss in mice using image analysis.
research Patient-Reported Burden of Severe Alopecia Areata: First Results from the Multinational Alopecia Areata Unmet Need Survey
Severe alopecia areata greatly impacts quality of life, mental health, and daily activities.
research Data from Elevated Cutaneous Smad Activation Associates with Enhanced Skin Tumor Susceptibility in Organ Transplant Recipients
Higher TGF-β signaling may increase skin cancer risk in organ transplant recipients.
research Flavonoids in Safflower Extract Reduce Cisplatin-Induced Damage to Human Follicle Dermal Papilla Cells by Inhibiting DNA Damage and Rad17/Chk1/Cdc25C Signaling
Safflower extract helps protect hair follicle cells from damage caused by chemotherapy.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Anogenital Distance as a Marker of Prenatal Androgenic Environment and Review and Comparison of Diagnostic Criteria
Longer anogenital distance may indicate a higher chance of having polycystic ovary syndrome, and measuring this distance along with hormone levels could improve diagnosis.
