Researchers found an RNA transcript that might help control a growth factor linked to tumor development.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription/DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Granulomatous skin involvement in a patient with an unusual NOD2 mutation
A rare genetic mutation caused unusual skin symptoms in a man with Blau syndrome.
research 1496 Transcription factor SOX2-induced amphiregulin inhibits pressure ulcer formation via suppressing oxidative stress after cutaneous ischemia-reperfusion in mice
SOX2 helps reduce wound size and pressure ulcer formation by suppressing oxidative stress and increasing antioxidant activity in mice.
research Genetic alteration of cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate-dependent protein kinase subunit expression affects calcium currents and beta-endorphin release in AtT-20 clonal pituitary cells.
Changing protein kinase levels in pituitary cells affects calcium flow and beta-endorphin release.
research Identification of a link between Wnt/β-catenin signalling and the cell fusion pathway
Wnt/β-catenin signaling is crucial for cell fusion in placental development.
research EGFR : stopping stathmin to start the cycle
EGFR helps hair follicles transition properly by controlling Stathmin levels.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research Transgenic Kallikrein 14 Mice Display Major Hair Shaft Defects Associated with Desmoglein 3 and 4 Degradation, Abnormal Epidermal Differentiation, and IL-36 Signature
Mice with extra human KLK14 had hair and skin problems, including weaker cell bonds and inflammation, linked to Netherton syndrome.
