research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research FOXN1: A Master Regulator Gene of Thymic Epithelial Development Program
The FOXN1 gene is crucial for developing immune cells and preventing immune disorders.
research Perspectives of Kennedy's disease
Kennedy's disease leads to muscle weakness and sensory issues, has no cure but manageable symptoms, and future treatments look promising.
research What should it take to describe a substance or product as 'sperm-safe'
Products should be called 'sperm-safe' only after thorough, well-designed tests.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research Skin Keratins
Keratins are important for skin cell health and their problems can cause diseases.
research 46,XY DSD due to impaired androgen production
Impaired androgen production in 46,XY DSDs causes ambiguous genitalia and requires long-term care.
research Disruption of the hedgehog signaling pathway contributes to the hair follicle cycling deficiency in Vdr knockout mice
Mice without Vitamin D receptors have hair growth problems because of issues in the hedgehog signaling pathway.
research Spatiotemporal control of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
The document concludes that while there are promising methods to control CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, more research is needed to overcome challenges related to safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
research Novel TMEM173 Mutation and the Role of Disease Modifying Alleles
A new mutation in the STING protein causes a range of symptoms and its severity may be affected by other genetic variations; treatment with a specific inhibitor showed improvement in one patient.
research Changing the shape of hair with keratin peptides
Keratin peptides can change hair shape gently without harsh chemicals.
research 5α-Reduced glucocorticoids: a story of natural selection
Natural 5α-reduced glucocorticoids might be anti-inflammatory with fewer side effects than current options.
research Expression patterns of MITF during human cutaneous embryogenesis: evidence for bulge epithelial expression and persistence of dermal melanoblasts
Melanocyte precursors in human fetal skin follow a specific migration pattern and some remain in the skin's deeper layers.
research Eph/ephrin signaling in epidermal differentiation and disease
Eph/ephrin signaling is important for skin cell behavior and could be targeted to treat skin diseases.
research Targeted delivery of extracellular vesicles: the mechanisms, techniques and therapeutic applications
Engineered extracellular vesicles show promise for targeted therapy but need more research for clinical use.
research Identification of microRNAs in Wool Follicles during Anagen, Catagen, and Telogen Phases in Tibetan Sheep
MicroRNAs play a key role in wool growth in Tibetan sheep.
research The bright side of fibroblasts: molecular signature and regenerative cues in major organs
Fibroblasts, cells usually linked to tissue repair, also help regenerate various organs and their ability decreases with age. Turning adult fibroblasts back to a younger state could be a new treatment approach.
research Two Hypomorphic Alleles of Mouse Ass1 as a New Animal Model of Citrullinemia Type I and Other Hyperammonemic Syndromes
Researchers created a new mouse model for studying Citrullinemia Type I and similar conditions, showing symptoms and treatment responses like those in humans.
research Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Definitions, Contexts, Conflicts, Enigmas
The document concludes that anti-dsDNA antibodies are not unique to SLE and their use as indicators is doubtful, highlighting the need for better understanding and classification of the disease.
research Hairless is a nuclear receptor corepressor essential for skin function
Hairless protein is crucial for healthy skin and hair, and its malfunction can cause hair loss.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-catenin signaling by EGF receptor is required for hair follicle development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research The role of R-spondins and their receptors in bone metabolism
R-spondins and their receptors help increase bone growth and may be used to treat bone loss diseases.
research Regulation of melanocyte stem cell behavior by the niche microenvironment
The environment around melanocyte stem cells is key for hair regeneration and color, with certain injuries affecting hair color and potential treatments for pigmentation disorders.
research Skin transcriptome profiling of Changthangi goats highlights the relevance of genes involved in Pashmina production
Changthangi goats have specific genes that help produce Pashmina wool.
research Expanding the Clinical and Mutational Spectrum of Recessive AEBP1-Related Classical-Like Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome
The study concludes that mutations in the AEBP1 gene can cause a form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome and should be considered in diagnosis.
research Functional analyses of a novel missense and other mutations of the vitamin D receptor in association with alopecia
A single amino acid change in the vitamin D receptor can disrupt its function and lead to hair loss.
research Identification of Finasteride Metabolites in Human Bile and Urine by High-Performance Liquid Chromatography/Tandem Mass Spectrometry
Finasteride breakdown products found in bile and urine, helps understand drug safety and effectiveness.
