research Progressive expression of PPARGC1α is associated with hair miniaturization in androgenetic alopecia
Increased PPARGC1α relates to hair thinning in common baldness.
research DHT and E2 synthesis-related proteins and receptors expression in male yak skin during different hair follicle stages
Male yak hair growth is influenced by DHT synthesis, which is promoted by 5α-red1 and AR during growth phases, while E2 may inhibit growth through ERα.
research Mechanical forces across compartments coordinate cell shape and fate transitions to generate tissue architecture
Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.
research Development and Validation of Androgen-induced Hair Loss and Anagen Induction Mouse Models for Pharmacological Evaluation of Anti-Androgenic Agents
The mouse models are effective for testing new hair loss treatments.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators

research Early onset and novel features in a spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patient with a 68 CAG repeat
A patient with a larger than usual genetic mutation had a broader range of symptoms for a muscle disease.
research The Genetics of Human Skin Disease
Genetic research has advanced our understanding of skin diseases, but complex conditions require an integrative approach for deeper insight.
research The endocrinology of baldness
Hormones and genetics play key roles in male and female baldness, which can affect mental health and may be linked to other health issues.
research Recent advances in the genetics of alopecia areata
New research has found 14 genes linked to the risk of developing alopecia areata, improving understanding and treatment options.
