research Screening for 21-hydroxylase–deficient nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia among hyperandrogenic women: a prospective study
Testing basal 17-HP levels is a good way to screen for nonclassic adrenal hyperplasia in women with high androgen levels.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Dermal papilla cell number specifies hair size, shape and cycling and its reduction causes follicular decline
More dermal papilla cells in hair follicles lead to larger, healthier hair, while fewer cells cause hair thinning and loss.
research Melanogenesis is coupled to murine anagen: Toward new concepts for the role of melanocytes and the regulation of melanogenesis in hair growth
Hair color production in mice is closely linked to the hair growth phase and may also influence hair growth itself.
research Dermal β-catenin activity in response to epidermal Wnt ligands is required for fibroblast proliferation and hair follicle initiation
Skin needs dermal β-catenin activity for hair growth and skin cell multiplication.
research Lactate dehydrogenase activity drives hair follicle stem cell activation
Lactate production is important for activating hair growth stem cells.
research WNT10A Mutations Are a Frequent Cause of a Broad Spectrum of Ectodermal Dysplasias with Sex-Biased Manifestation Pattern in Heterozygotes
WNT10A mutations often cause ectodermal dysplasias, with males showing more tooth issues than females.
research A genome-wide association scan in admixed Latin Americans identifies loci influencing facial and scalp hair features
Genetic factors influence hair traits like shape, color, and greying in Latin Americans.
research Genetic Variation in the Human Androgen Receptor Gene Is the Major Determinant of Common Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia
Genetic variation in the androgen receptor gene mainly causes early-onset hair loss, with maternal inheritance playing a key role.
research The evaluation and management of hirsutism*1
Most women with excess hair growth have an underlying hormonal issue, often treated with medication and hair removal methods.
research Alopecia areata: a review of disease pathogenesis
Alopecia areata is likely an autoimmune disease with unclear triggers, involving various immune cells and molecules, and currently has no cure.
research cis-Element- and Transcriptome-Based Screening of Root Hair-Specific Genes and Their Functional Characterization in Arabidopsis
Researchers found 19 genes important for root hair growth in a plant called Arabidopsis.
research Androgen Receptor Polymorphisms (CAG Repeat Lengths) in Androgenetic Alopecia, Hirsutism, and Acne
Shorter CAG repeats may cause hair and skin issues, while longer ones may link to acne.
research COVID-19 and Sex Differences
Men are more likely to have severe COVID-19 cases and fatalities than women due to factors like lifestyle, aging, and biological differences.
research Roles of jumonji and jumonji family genes in chromatin regulation and development
Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.
research Why Some Women Look Young for Their Age
Women look young for their age due to larger lips, less sun damage, and genes that prevent gray hair and wrinkles.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research In vivo transcriptional governance of hair follicle stem cells by canonical Wnt regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Decreased Serum Ferritin is Associated With Alopecia in Women
Low iron levels may be linked to some types of hair loss in women.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research Sic Transit Gloria: Farewell to the Epidermal Transit Amplifying Cell?
New research suggests that skin cell renewal may not require a special type of cell previously thought to be essential.
research Alopecia areata
Alopecia areata causes hair loss, has no cure, and various treatments exist.
research An Update of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a genetic disorder with two forms, causing symptoms like early puberty and severe acne, but can be identified through screening and treated with glucocorticoids.
research Cutaneous lupus erythematosus: a review
Patients with certain skin symptoms and high ANA titers should be monitored for potential systemic lupus.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Lupus erythematosus: systemic and cutaneous manifestations
Lupus affects the body and skin, causing joint pain and skin issues that can be treated with steroids and antimalarial drugs.
research Transplantation immunology: Solid organ and bone marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Shh maintains dermal papilla identity and hair morphogenesis via a Noggin–Shh regulatory loop
Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair growth and maintaining hair follicle identity.
research Epithelial Integrity Is Maintained by a Matriptase-Dependent Proteolytic Pathway
Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
