research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment
Gene therapy has potential as a future treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
research A genome-wide association study of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in breast cancer patients
A specific gene variant is linked to a higher risk of hair loss from chemotherapy in breast cancer patients.
research Formation of regulator/target gene relationships during evolution
Gene regulatory regions evolve faster than protein coding regions, allowing new gene relationships without changing transcription factors.
research Igf1r signalling acts on the anagen‐to‐catagen transition in the hair cycle
Igf1r helps regulate hair growth cycles.
research Mediator 1 ablation induces enamel-to-hair lineage conversion in mice through enhancer dynamics
Removing Mediator 1 from certain mouse cells causes teeth to grow hair instead of enamel.
research Research Snippets
New hair regrowth model introduced, imiquimod kills skin cancer cells, T-cadherin loss makes skin cancer more invasive, no strong link between PTCH1 gene and skin cancer after transplant, and male teens more likely to have hereditary hair loss.
research Study on genetic polymorphisms of androgen receptor gene and 5α-reductase genes of Han men with androgenetic alopecia in the Eastern China
Shorter GGC triplet repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to less hair loss in Han men.
research Towards Defining the Pathogenesis of the Hairless Phenotype
The hairless gene mutation causes baldness by disrupting hair follicle structure.
research The E6/E7 oncogenes of human papilloma virus and estradiol regulate hedgehog signaling activity in a murine model of cervical cancer
HPV genes and estradiol increase a cancer-related signaling pathway, which may be targeted for cervical cancer treatment.
research LRIG1 is a positive prognostic marker in Merkel cell carcinoma and Merkel cell carcinoma expresses epithelial stem cell markers
LRIG1 is linked to better survival in Merkel cell carcinoma.
research The local hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis in cultured human dermal papilla cells
Stress hormone CRF causes hair loss and stops hair cell growth.
research Armadillo Repeat Only Proteins Are Crucial for the Function of Plant CNGC Channels
Armadillo Repeat Only proteins are essential for proper plant growth and response by regulating calcium channels.
research Upregulation of the truncated basic hair keratin 1(hHb1‐ΔN) in carcinoma cells by Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)
EBV infection increases a specific keratin variant in carcinoma cells, possibly affecting cell structure and cancer progression.
research BRCA2 in abscission
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 helps in cell division by bringing key proteins to the area where cells split.

The study created a mouse model to mimic degenerative diseases for testing tissue repair and new therapies.
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 A cluster of 21 keratin-associated protein genes within introns of another gene on human chromosome 21q22.3
A cluster of 21 keratin-associated protein genes important for hair growth was found on human chromosome 21.
