research Biology of melanocytes in mammals
Melanocytes are important for skin and hair color and protect the skin from UV damage.
research Identification of key pathways and genes that regulate cashmere development in cashmere goats mediated by exogenous melatonin
Melatonin affects cashmere growth in goats by influencing stem cell and certain signaling pathways.
research Formation of the cornified envelope
The cornified envelope is crucial for skin's barrier function and involves key proteins and genetic factors.
research Region-specific reversal of epidermal planar polarity in the rosette fancy mouse
Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.
research A novel homozygous variant in the dsp gene underlies the first case of non-syndromic form of alopecia
A new gene variant in the DSP gene is linked to a unique type of hair loss.
research Corneodesmosin: Structure, Function and Involvement in Pathophysiology
Corneodesmosin is essential for skin and hair health, and its dysfunction can lead to skin and hair disorders.
research Tissue homeostasis
Humans have limited regenerative abilities, but new evidence shows the adult brain and heart can regenerate, and future treatments may improve this by mimicking stem cell environments.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Current Genetics in Hair Diseases
Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.
research Structure and Function of the Skin
The document concludes that the skin is a complex organ providing protection, sensation, and healing, with challenges in treating conditions like itchiness.
research Scientific Highlights from the Society for Investigative Dermatology 2010 Annual Meeting
The meeting highlighted major advances in skin research, including new findings on skin microbes, genetic links to skin diseases, and improved treatments for various conditions.
research Keeping up with the neighbours: local synchronisation of cell fate decisions during development
Cells communicate with neighbors to coordinate their development.
research Nutrients regulation of skin cells from canines and cats via Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway
Certain nutrients like keratin, egg yolk, and fish collagen may help pets regrow hair.
research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research Development of novel wound dressing based on elastin-like recombinamers for skin regeneration
Elastin-like recombinamers show promise for better wound healing and skin regeneration.
research Severe Hypernatremia as Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton syndrome can cause severe dehydration, infections, and growth issues in infants.
research Case Report: Bi-allelic missense variant in the desmocollin 3 gene causes hypotrichosis and recurrent skin vesicles
A new genetic change in the DSC3 gene is linked to a rare condition causing hair loss and skin blisters in a child.
research Clinical and molecular genetic studies in hereditary hair loss
Researchers found a genetic link for hereditary hair loss but need more analysis to identify the exact gene.
research Atherogenesis: Estrogen Induction of Polysialylated nCAM (PSA-nCAM) Blocks Monocyte Capture by Vascular Endothelial Cells
Estrogen helps prevent artery plaque by stopping monocyte capture in blood vessels.
research An Investigation of Hair and its Keratin Associated Proteins using Advanced Light Microscopy
Advanced microscopy shows hair damage and keratin proteins' roles, aiding future cosmetic treatments.
