research In brief
Pilomatricomas don't follow the usual hair follicle cell differentiation process.
research Expression of epidermal keratins and filaggrin during human fetal skin development.
Keratins and filaggrin change as fetal skin develops, marking key stages of skin formation.
research Expression of keratin K14 in the epidermis and hair follicle: insights into complex programs of differentiation.
Keratin K14 expression varies between hair follicles and epidermis, affecting cell differentiation.
research A kindred with mutant IKAROS and autoimmunity
A mutation in the IKZF1 gene causes immune system overactivity, linked to autoimmune diseases like lupus.
research A case of multiple trichoepitheliomas associated with alopecia areata and systemic lupus erythematosus
Autoimmune conditions can be linked to trichoepitheliomas, with treatment focusing on cosmetic concerns.
research Atrichia and Papular Lesions: Report of a Case
A 4-year-old girl has a rare condition causing hairlessness and skin bumps, but normal teeth and sweating.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research The pathogenesis of alopecia areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease affecting hair follicles and may harm heart health.
research High throughput T cell receptor sequencing identifies clonally expanded CD8+ T cell populations in Alopecia Areata
Expanded CD8+ T cells are linked to Alopecia Areata and may cause relapse after treatment.
research Mutations in AEC syndrome skin reveal a role for p63 in basement membrane adhesion, skin barrier integrity and hair follicle biology
Mutations in the p63 gene affect skin adhesion, barrier integrity, and hair growth.
research GATA3 inhibits proliferation and induces expression of both early and late differentiation markers in keratinocytes of the human epidermis
research New insights into the phenomenon of remissions and relapses in autoimmune diseases and the puzzle of benign autoantibodies in healthy individuals
Autoimmune diseases with high tissue recovery often relapse and remit, while those with low recovery rarely remit.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
research Autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome: further delineation of the phenotype
A new mutation in the ST14 gene was found in a patient with ARIH syndrome, showing milder symptoms and no tooth issues.
research A Preliminary Assessment of Steroid Reproductive Hormones in Archaeological Human Hair Utilizing a Modified Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) Technique
Steroid hormones can be preserved in ancient hair, revealing insights into past health and fertility.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.
research The prevalence of thyroid function test abnormalities and serum thyroid autoantibodies in vitiligo and alopecia areata patients in Saudi Arabian population
Thyroid tests may not be needed for all vitiligo and alopecia areata patients unless thyroid disease symptoms appear.
research Keratoma Hereditaria Mutilans (Vohwinkel's Disease) with Congenital Alopecia Universalis (Atrichia Congenita)
Three siblings had both Vohwinkel's disease and congenital alopecia, with no effective treatment.
research Increased acetylcholine levels in skin biopsies of patients with atopic dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis patients have much higher acetylcholine levels in their skin, which may cause itching.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
research 1339 Casein kinase 1 inhibition in keratinocytes enhances the migration of melanocyte precursors in the hair follicle via KitL/c-Kit signaling pathway
Blocking casein kinase 1 in skin cells can help melanocyte precursors move better, potentially helping with conditions like vitiligo or gray hair.
