The balance between androgen receptor and p53 is crucial for sebaceous gland differentiation.
research Epidermal abnormalities and increased malignancy of skin tumors in human epidermal keratin 8‐expressing transgenic mice
Mice with human skin protein K8 had more skin problems and cancer.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Skin and hair: models for exploring organ regeneration
Skin and hair can help us understand organ regeneration, especially how certain stem cells might be used to form new organs.
research Loss of Keratin K2 Expression Causes Aberrant Aggregation of K10, Hyperkeratosis, and Inflammation

research The concealed side of caspases: beyond a killer of cells
Caspases do more than kill cells; they also help in cell growth and disease, and targeting them could lead to new treatments.
research Genomewide differential expression profiling of long non-coding RNAs in androgenetic alopecia in a Chinese male population
Found different long non-coding RNAs in balding Chinese men, which may help create new treatments.
research Evidence that mirex promotes a unique population of epidermal cells that cannot be distinguished by their mutant Ha-ras genotype
Mirex seems to promote a unique group of skin cells different from those affected by another tumor promoter, TPA.
research Keratin function and regulation in tissue homeostasis and pathogenesis
Keratin is crucial for keeping skin cells healthy and its changes can lead to diseases and affect cell behavior.
research Function of KLF4 in Stem Cell Biology
KLF4 is important for maintaining stem cells and has potential in cancer treatment and wound healing.
research Into the redox control: N-acetyl-cysteine pleiotropic effects from the laboratory to clinical applications
N-acetyl-cysteine shows promise in treating various diseases and may improve skin and hair conditions, but more research is needed on dosages and long-term effects.
research Stem Cells as a Target for the Delivery of Active Molecules to Skin by Topical Administration
Topical treatments can deliver active molecules to skin stem cells, potentially helping treat skin and hair disorders, including skin cancers and hair loss.
research Cutaneous gain-of-function mutation of LRIG3 leads to alopecia by upregulation of ERBB, PI3K/AKT, NOTCH1 signaling pathways
Overexpression of LRIG3 in skin causes hair loss.
research Amelioration of psoriasis-like skin lesions by human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells: insights from multiomics profiling in mice
Human amniotic stem cells can safely treat psoriasis-like skin in mice.
research Causal Relationship and Potential Common Pathogenic Mechanisms Between Alopecia Areata and Related Cancer
Alopecia areata might help slow down certain cancers.
research Cell death as an architect of adult skin stem cell niches
