research PLA2R1 Overexpression Causes Podocyte Injury by Inhibiting the Cell Cycle: A Clinical Cross-Sectional Investigation and Cellular Study
PLA2R1 overexpression harms kidney cells by stopping their growth cycle.
research Genomewide analysis of copy number variants in alopecia areata in a C entral E uropean cohort reveals association with MCHR 2
MCHR2 gene duplications may be linked to alopecia areata.
research Stress-induced chemokine production by hair follicles recruits dendritic cells to sites of minor trauma
Hair follicles help attract immune cells to minor skin injuries.
research Additional file 2 of Time-course RNA-seq analysis reveals stage-specific and melatonin-triggered gene expression patterns during the hair follicle growth cycle in Capra hircus
Melatonin affects when and how goat hair follicle genes turn on and off during growth cycles.
research HDL as Therapeutic Tools
Modified HDL can better deliver drugs and genes, potentially improving treatments and reducing side effects.
research Predominant expression of 5 alpha-reductase type 1 in pubic skin from normal subjects and hirsute patients.
The main enzyme found in pubic skin that could be targeted to treat excessive hair growth is 5 alpha-R2.
research Intratumoral De Novo Steroid Synthesis Activates Androgen Receptor in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Is Upregulated by Treatment with CYP17A1 Inhibitors
Prostate cancer cells can make their own androgens to activate the androgen receptor, and treatments like abiraterone may increase this ability, suggesting new therapies should target the entire steroid-making pathway.
research Cloning, expression and characterization of rhesus macaque types 1 and 2 5alpha-Reductase: evidence for mechanism-Based inhibition by finasteride
Finasteride inhibits enzyme activity in rhesus macaques, suggesting they're useful for evaluating similar drugs.
research The Near-Naked Hairless (Hr) Mutation Disrupts Hair Formation but Is Not Due to a Mutation in the Hairless Coding Region
The near-naked hairless mutation causes hair loss but is not due to a mutation in the hairless gene itself.
research Investigation of a non-invasive method of assessing the equine circadian clock using hair follicle cells
RNA from horse hair follicles can track circadian rhythms non-invasively.
research An Update of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia
Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia is a genetic disorder with two forms, causing symptoms like early puberty and severe acne, but can be identified through screening and treated with glucocorticoids.
research Thyrotropin-releasing hormone and oestrogen differentially regulate prolactin and prolactin receptor expression in female human skin and hair follicles in vitro
Oestrogen and thyrotropin-releasing hormone affect prolactin and its receptor in human skin and hair, suggesting new treatment options for related conditions.
research Estimation methods for human circadian phase by use of peripheral tissues
New method uses hair follicle cells to estimate human body clock phase, potentially improving sleep disorder diagnosis.
research Hollow polydopamine nanoparticles loading with peptide RL-QN15: a new pro-regenerative therapeutic agent for skin wounds
HPDAlR nanoparticles greatly improve skin wound healing without toxicity.
research Role of Androgen Receptor in Hypothalamic Regulation of Metabolism and Reproduction
Androgen receptors in the brain affect metabolism and reproduction differently in males and females, and may help manage PCOS symptoms in females.
research 1446 RNase L acts as a regeneration suppressor
RNase L suppresses regeneration in mammals.
research Igf1r signalling acts on the anagen‐to‐catagen transition in the hair cycle
Igf1r helps regulate hair growth cycles.
research Testosterone’s regulation of the HPA axis differs for adolescent and adult male rats
Adolescent male rats release more stress hormones than adults, and testosterone affects them differently.
research Expression of the human Cathepsin L inhibitor hurpin in mice: skin alterations and increased carcinogenesis
Overexpression of hurpin in mice leads to abnormal skin and higher skin cancer risk.
research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Signal integrator function of CXXC5 in Cancer
CXXC5 can both suppress and promote cancer, making it a complex target for treatment.
research Establishment of a murine cGVHD model with scleroderma
A mouse model for studying scleroderma in chronic graft-versus-host disease was successfully created.
research Structure of human steroid 5α-reductase 2 with the anti-androgen drug finasteride
Finasteride irreversibly affects human steroid 5α-reductase 2, providing insight into its catalytic mechanism and disease-related mutations.
research ABHRS Sets Plans for Coming Year
The ABHRS has outlined its goals for the next year.
research The myeloid mineralocorticoid receptor regulates dermal angiogenesis and inflammation in glucocorticoid‐induced impaired wound healing
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor improves wound healing by reducing inflammation and promoting blood vessel growth.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
