research Increased risk of vitamin D deficiency and insufficiency in Black patients with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Black patients with a specific type of hair loss have a much higher chance of lacking enough vitamin D.
research Follicular induction and CK20+ Merkel cells overlying cutaneous focal mucinosis
Some skin growths with mucin can form hair follicles and resemble skin cancer, but a special stain can help tell them apart.
research Human keratinocytes derived from the bulge region of hair follicles are refractory to differentiation
Hair follicle cells resist turning into skin cells.
research Dermatoscopic features of central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Researchers found a white halo around hair in most patients with a specific type of hair loss, which helps in early diagnosis and treatment.
research A slow-cycling LGR5 tumour population mediates basal cell carcinoma relapse after therapy
A small group of slow-growing cells causes basal cell carcinoma to return after treatment.
research Decision letter: Human biallelic MFN2 mutations induce mitochondrial dysfunction, upper body adipose hyperplasia, and suppression of leptin expression
MFN2 mutations cause mitochondrial problems, unusual fat distribution, and low leptin despite high body fat.
research Ginkgolide B and bilobalide promote the growth and increase β‐catenin expression in hair follicle dermal papilla cells of American minks
Ginkgolide B and bilobalide help mink hair grow by making skin cells healthier and boosting a key growth protein.
research Keratins 1 and 10 or homologues as regular constituents of inner root sheath and cuticle cells in the human hair follicle.
Keratins K1 and K10 are found in the inner root sheath and cuticle of human hair follicles.
research Decision letter: Deletion of the MAD2L1 spindle assembly checkpoint gene is tolerated in mouse models of acute T-cell lymphoma and hepatocellular carcinoma
Deleting the MAD2L1 gene in mice led to rapid tumor growth despite chromosomal instability.
research Dermal EZH2 simultaneously orchestrates dermal differentiation and epidermal proliferation during murine skin development
Dermal EZH2 controls skin cell growth and differentiation in mice.
research Bioengineering a humanized acne microenvironment model: Proteomics analysis of host responses to Propionibacterium acnes infection in vivo
A new model helps study acne and test treatments.
research Interferon alpha 2B
Some patients lost hair after taking interferon alpha 2B, but it improved for some while still on the treatment and for others after stopping it.
research CD34 defines melanocyte stem cell subpopulations with distinct regenerative properties
CD34+ and CD34- melanocyte stem cells have different regenerative abilities.
research Scanning electron microscopy of ibrutinib-induced hair shaft changes
research British Hair and Nail SocietyOral presentationsBH01 (P087) The British Hair and Nail Society present a review of our national grand round of challenging hair disorders and the benefits to the wider British Association of Dermatologists membership
The grand round helps improve diagnoses and suggests new treatments for hair disorders.
research Keratitis-Ichthyosis-Deafness Syndrome Caused by Missense Mutation in GJB2 Encoding Connexin 26 in a Chinese Patient
A Chinese man with KID syndrome had a new mutation in the GJB2 gene.
research Differential sensitivity of epidermal cell subpopulations to β-catenin-induced ectopic hair follicle formation
Sebaceous glands can form new hair follicles when activated, but hair follicle bulges cannot.
research Some observations on the proteins of the inner root sheath cells of hair follicles
research Reduced levels of 5-α reductase 2 in adult prostate tissue and implications for BPH therapy
Some men's prostate tissues have low enzyme levels due to genetic changes, possibly affecting treatment for prostate enlargement.
research Building a Better Scar: Re-engineering Extracellular Matrix Structure in Dermal Scars
αCT1 improves scar appearance by changing early collagen structure.
research Epidermolysis bullosa simplex: a paradigm for disorders of tissue fragility
Epidermolysis bullosa simplex causes easily blistered skin due to faulty skin cell proteins, leading to new treatment ideas.
research Planar Cell Polarity Cadherin Celsr1 Regulates Skin Hair Patterning in the Mouse
The Celsr1 gene is crucial for normal hair patterning in mice.
research 33774 Baricitinib results in eyebrow and eyelash growth in patients with alopecia areata who do not achieve 20% or less scalp hair loss
Baricitinib helps grow eyebrows and eyelashes in severe alopecia areata patients.
research 1379 Cyclosporin A suppresses TGF-β2 expression via calcineurin/NFAT pathway in human dermal papilla cells
Cyclosporin A, a drug, reduces TGF-β2 expression in skin cells, potentially causing excessive hair growth through a process involving the calcineurin/NFAT pathway.
research The peach RGF/GLV signalling peptide pCTG134 is involved in a regulatory circuit that sustains auxin and ethylene actions
The peach gene pCTG134 helps control the interaction between auxin and ethylene hormones during fruit ripening.
research Peer Review #2 of "A novel control of human keratin expression: cannabinoid receptor 1-mediated signaling down-regulates the expression of keratins K6 and K16 in human keratinocytes in vitro and in situ (v0.1)"
