research 876 Manipulation of stem cell divisional behavior: Selectively promoting asymmetric and symmetric keratinocyte divisions in vitro
Scientists can control how skin stem cells divide by using different treatments.
research Pitfalls of mapping a large Turkish consanguineous family with vertical monilethrix inheritance.
A mutation in the KRT86 gene causes hair fragility in a Turkish family.
research A mutation in the type II hair keratin KRT86 gene in a Han family with monilethrix
A new mutation in the KRT86 gene causes monilethrix in a Han family.
research A Mosaic Hotspot PLCD1 Variant, Detectable in Blood‐Derived DNA , Associated With Nevus Trichilemmocysticus
A rare genetic variant linked to skin cysts was found in blood DNA, suggesting its role in cyst formation.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Studies on basal cell carcinoma with emphasis on the role of the human homologue of the Drosophila patched gene
PTCH gene mutations contribute to basal cell carcinoma development.
research Acidic and basic hair/nail ("hard") keratins: their colocalization in upper cortical and cuticle cells of the human hair follicle and their relationship to "soft" keratins.
Hair and nail cells share similar proteins, indicating a common differentiation pathway.
research Activity of Sorafenib against Desmoid Tumor/Deep Fibromatosis
Sorafenib is effective in treating Desmoid Tumor/Deep Fibromatosis.
research Human Epidermal Neural Crest Stem Cells (hEPI-NCSC)—Characterization and Directed Differentiation into Osteocytes and Melanocytes
Human epidermal neural crest stem cells can become bone and skin pigment cells, making them useful for therapies.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research CLINICAL AND LABORATORY EVALUATION OF AIDS TRICHOPATHY
People with HIV and low T cell counts have more hair and scalp problems.
research Immunomodulators in the treatment of cutaneous lymphoma
Immunomodulatory therapies are effective for treating cutaneous lymphoma, particularly in early stages.
research A Monoclonal Antibody Established from the Immunization of Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC) Tissues Reacts to the Intercellular Space of BCC and Hair Follicles
The antibody created from BCC tissues reacts similarly to both BCC and hair follicles, suggesting BCC may come from hair follicle cells.
research Expression of the bcl-2 Protooncogene in the Cycling Adult Mouse Hair Follicle
research Alopecia areata possibly induced by autoimmune reaction in a patient with human T‐cell lymphotropic virus‐1‐associated myelopathy
Autoimmune reactions may cause both alopecia areata and HAM.
research 707 Chromatin remodeler Lymphoid-specific helicase (Lsh) is a critical determinant controlling postnatal epidermal growth, differentiation and response to injury
Lymphoid-specific helicase (Lsh) is crucial for skin growth, change, and healing after injury.
research Morphologic and molecular characterization of two novel Krt71 (Krt2-6g) mutations: Krt71 rco12 and Krt71 rco13
research Distinct transcriptomic landscapes of cutaneous basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas
Basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas have different gene activity patterns, suggesting unique treatment approaches.
research Gene profile analysis of colorectal cancer cell lines by cDNA macroarray
Colorectal cancer's ability to spread is due to changes in many genes, not just one.
research A mutation in the type II hair keratin KRT86 gene in a Han family with monilethrix
A new mutation in the KRT86 gene was found to cause the hair disorder monilethrix in a Han family.
research Atrichia with Papular Lesions in a Chinese Family Caused by Novel Compound Heterozygous Mutations and Literature Review
New genetic mutations causing hair loss were found in a Chinese family.
research Novel KRT 83 and KRT 86 mutations associated with monilethrix
New mutations in KRT83 and KRT86 are linked to the hair disorder monilethrix.
research LB1011 Oncogenic ras mutation induces spatiotemporally specific tissue deformation through converting fluctuated into sustained ERK activation
A specific mutation in Kras causes abnormal tissue changes by making a cell signal continuously active, which disrupts normal cell coordination.
