research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Focus on Skin as a Possible Port of Entry for Solid Nanoparticles and the Toxicological Impact
Nanoparticles can enter the skin, potentially causing toxicity, especially in damaged skin.
research Normal Hair Growth in Children
Children's hair grows in different types from before birth through puberty, with growth rates and characteristics varying by age, sex, and race.
research A comparison of vertical versus transverse sections in the evaluation of alopecia biopsy specimens
Using both vertical and transverse sections gives a better diagnosis of alopecia than using one method alone.
research Investigation of Follicular and Non-follicular Pathways for Polyarginine and Oleic Acid-Modified Nanoparticles
Surface-modified nanoparticles mainly use non-follicular pathways to enhance skin permeation of ibuprofen and could improve treatment for inflammatory skin diseases.
research Conditional Activin Receptor Type 1B (Acvr1b) Knockout Mice Reveal Hair Loss Abnormality
Disrupting Acvr1b in mice causes severe hair loss and thicker skin.
research Significance of the S100A4 Protein in Psoriasis
The S100A4 protein is more common in psoriatic skin and could be a target for treating psoriasis.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research The spectrum of hair loss in patients with mycosis fungoides and Sézary syndrome
Some patients with mycosis fungoides or Sézary syndrome experience hair loss, which may be similar to alopecia areata or linked to skin lesions, possibly due to abnormal T cells, and bexarotene can help treat it.
research Skin: Basic Structure and Function
The skin is a complex barrier that protects the body, regulates temperature, and helps with immune responses.
research Integral hair lipid in human hair follicle
Human hair has a protective lipid layer that can be damaged by moisture and treatments, affecting hair growth and health.
research Dorsal Skin Reactions of Hairless Dogs to Topical Treatment with Corticosteroids
Stronger corticosteroids cause more skin damage in hairless dogs, similar to effects in humans.
research Therapeutic Potential of Patient iPSC-Derived iMelanocytes in Autologous Transplantation
Patient-derived melanocytes can potentially treat vitiligo by restoring skin pigmentation.
research PI3K/Akt signaling pathway is essential for de novo hair follicle regeneration
PI3K/Akt pathway is crucial for hair growth and regeneration.
research EGFR Inhibitors and Cutaneous Complications: A Practical Approach to Management
The document provides advice on how to recognize and treat skin-related side effects of cancer drugs known as EGFR inhibitors.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Clinical management of cutaneous adverse events in patients on targeted anticancer therapies and immunotherapies: a national consensus statement by the Spanish Academy of Dermatology and Venereology and the Spanish Society of Medical Oncology
Spanish experts provided guidelines for treating skin side effects in cancer patients on new therapies, stressing early action and teamwork.
research Cutaneous necrosis after injection of polyethylene glycol–modified interferon alfa
Some patients receiving pegylated interferon alfa injections developed skin necrosis, requiring treatment adjustments or discontinuation.
research Calcium regulation of stem cells
Calcium is important for stem cell function and maintenance, especially in blood and skin cells.
research Genome-wide association study of skin complex diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research A Case of Cicatricial Alopecia Associated with Erlotinib
Erlotinib can cause hair loss as a side effect.
research Temporal triangular alopecia: significance of trichoscopy in differential diagnosis
Trichoscopy is reliable for diagnosing Temporal Triangular Alopecia and can prevent unnecessary biopsies and wrong treatments.
research The Immunological Impact of IL-1 Family Cytokines on the Epidermal Barrier
IL-1 family cytokines are crucial for skin defense and healing, but their imbalance can cause skin diseases.
research Metabolic and pathologic profiles of human LSS deficiency recapitulated in mice
Mice with LSS deficiency showed hair loss and cataracts, similar to humans, and can help in understanding and treating this condition.
research Sebaceous Gland, Hair Shaft, and Epidermal Barrier Abnormalities in Keratosis Pilaris with and without Filaggrin Deficiency
Keratosis pilaris is often linked to genetic mutations and causes skin and hair abnormalities, regardless of those mutations.
research VEGF upregulates VEGF receptor-2 on human outer root sheath cells and stimulates proliferation through ERK pathway
VEGF stimulates hair cell growth and increases growth receptor levels through a specific signaling pathway.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
