Currently, the major outbreak of novel coronavirus (COVID-19) has affected us all personally and economically all across the world. Our sincere thoughts are with the affected families and we send our great appreciation to all the scientists working hard to find the treatment for COVID-19 as soon as possible. We […]
Adenosine promotes human hair growth and inhibits catagen transition in vitro – role of the outer root sheath keratinocytes.Lisztes E et al., J Invest Dermatol, 2020It is well known that adenosine promotes human hair growth. In this study, together with our Hungarian collaborators, we unravel a novel mechanism by which […]
It is long known that adenosine promotes hair growth. One of the proposed mechanism involves the regulation of hair cycle-associated growth factors production and release by dermal papilla fibroblasts. However, full characterization of the cellular mechanism by which adenosine regulates hair growth cycle, and the distribution of adenosine receptors […]
We wish you all happy new year 2020. Thanks to our team, collaborators and partners for all the milestones we achieved together. We are looking forward to achieving more in 2020. 2019 in a nutshell 11 research publications 31+ acquired contracts 60 completed project milestones 10+ innovative services provided 11 […]
An osteopontin-derived peptide inhibits human hair growth at least in part by decreasing FGF7 production in outer root sheath keratinocytes. Alam M. et al., Br J Dermatol, 2019 Osteopontin, a multifunctional immunomodulatory glycoprotein is expressed in human hair follicles. In this study a peptide fragment of OPN, FOL005 was investigated […]
Previous studies examining the topical application of theophylline in murine skin showed photodamage-protective properties (1). However, the effects of theophylline on human skin remains elusive. By using cutting-edge microscopy techniques and ex vivo assays, the research team at Monasterium Laboratory GmbH has investigated the in-depth effect of theophylline administration on […]
