Lower doses of dexamethasone can safely reduce high DHEAS levels in women with androgenic disorders.
research MAD2B acts as a negative regulatory partner of TCF4 on proliferation in human dermal papilla cells
MAD2B slows down the growth of skin cells that are important for hair development by interacting with TCF4.
research Enhancing diagnostic yield of monogenic diabetes through phenotypic and molecular reanalysis of 128 individuals with young onset hyperglycemia: highlighting the significance of accurate case characterization
Combining genetic and physical trait analysis improves diagnosis accuracy for monogenic diabetes.
research Apoptotic Cells May Drive Cell Death in Hair Follicles During their Regression Cycle
Apoptotic cells may trigger cell death in hair follicles during their regression cycle.
research 376 Tsc2 disruption in mesenchymal progenitors regulates hair follicles and TGF beta signaling
Disrupting the Tsc2 gene in certain cells leads to thicker skin, larger hair, and changes in hair growth signaling, which can be partly reversed with specific treatment.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, a gene mutation causes a hair disorder that might be treated by managing cell stress, a potential therapy for a skin-ear disorder involves blocking cell channels, skin wrinkling may indicate lung aging regardless of smoking, and oxidative stress might contribute to common baldness.
research Transient mitochondrial DNA double strand breaks in mice cause accelerated aging phenotypes in a ROS-dependent but p53/p21-independent manner
Damaging mitochondrial DNA in mice speeds up aging due to increased reactive oxygen species, not through the p53/p21 pathway.
research A new mutation in the type II hair cortex keratin hHb1 involved in the inherited hair disorder monilethrix
A new mutation in the hHb1 keratin gene is linked to the hair disorder monilethrix.
