research CCN2 modulates hair follicle cycling in mice
The protein CCN2 controls hair growth by affecting hair follicle formation and stem cell activity in mice.
research Mouse Hair Cycle Expression Dynamics Modeled as Coupled Mesenchymal and Epithelial Oscillators
The study concluded that hair growth in mice is regulated by a stable interaction between skin cell types, and disrupting this can cause hair loss.
research Mechanotransduction unifies healthy non-diabetic wound healing over time by promoting a Cd14+/C1qa+ fibroblast subpopulation
Mechanotransduction aids healthy wound healing by promoting specific fibroblasts.
research Transcriptomic Analysis Reveals Candidate Ligand-Receptor Pairs and Signaling Networks Mediating Intercellular Communication between Hair Matrix Cells and Dermal Papilla Cells from Cashmere Goats
The research identified key molecules that help hair matrix and dermal papilla cells communicate and influence hair growth in cashmere goats.
research A Missense Mutation in the Cadherin Interaction Site of The Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlies Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis
A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.
research Meibomian gland changes in the rhino (hrrhhrrh) mouse.
Rhino mice show significant meibomian gland changes, making them a potential model for studying gland disorders.
research Differential Expression of Genes Encoding a Cysteine-Rich Keratin Family in the Hair Cuticle
research 175 Understanding immune privilege in an inducible mouse model of primary cicatrcial alopecia
The study found that a key immune pathway protecting hair follicles is reduced in a mouse model of scarring hair loss.
research Intranasal sensitization model of alopecia areata using pertussis toxin as adjuvant
Pertussis toxin may contribute to hair loss in alopecia areata.
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 Decision letter: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
Skin cells can naturally limit the growth of cancerous changes by balancing cell renewal and differentiation.
research The cellular basis of mechanosensory Merkel-cell innervation during development
BMP signaling is essential for the development of touch domes.
research 664 Understanding the pathogenesis of seborrhea-like dermatitis in the Mpzl3 knockout mice
ZNF750 and MPZL3 are important in causing seborrheic dermatitis.
research Pvalb8, a Type of Oncomodulin, Regulates Neuromast Development and Auditory Function in Zebrafish
Pvalb8 is essential for zebrafish hearing and hair cell development, and its mutation causes hearing loss.
research Steroid 5α-reductase 2 deficiency leads to reduced dominance-related and impulse-control behaviors
Mice lacking steroid 5α-reductase 2 show less aggression and better impulse control.
research 186 Dissecting the role of the common neurotrophin receptor CD271 in the skin: generation and characterization of a novel mouse model with keratinocyte-specific conditional deletion
Deleting the CD271 gene in mouse skin cells leads to disorganized skin and increased hair growth, suggesting CD271 is important for skin health.
research Expression of Signaling Components in Embryonic Eyelid Epithelium
Eyelid cells share signaling components but differ in pathway activity.
research Molluscum Contagiosum in an Epidermoid Cyst
Molluscum contagiosum can occur in epidermoid cysts, especially with prolonged steroid use.
research Hair follicle morphogenesis and epidermal homeostasis in we/we wal/wal mice with postnatal alopecia
The we/we wal/wal mice have defects in hair growth and skin layer formation, causing hair loss, useful for understanding alopecia.
research Anti-Acne Agents Attenuate FGFR2 Signal Transduction in Acne
Anti-acne medications may work by reducing the activity of a protein involved in acne development.
research Influence of substance-P on cultured sebocytes
Substance P may worsen acne by increasing inflammation, but corticosteroids might help by reducing this effect.
research Effect of dihydrotestosterone on the upregulation of inflammatory cytokines in cultured sebocytes
Dihydrotestosterone increases certain inflammatory signals in skin cells, potentially contributing to acne.
