research Differential structural properties and expression patterns suggest functional significance for multiple mouse desmoglein 1 isoforms
Multiple mouse desmoglein 1 isoforms have distinct roles in skin and hair development.
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 Krtap11-1, a hair keratin-associated protein, as a possible crucial element for the physical properties of hair shafts
Krtap11-1 is important for hair strength and structure.
research A Novel In Vivo Active Pemphigus Model Targeting Desmoglein1 and Desmoglein3: A Tool Representing All Pemphigus Variants
New mouse models of Pemphigus show severe symptoms and need better treatments.
research Expression of Desmoglein 1 Compensates for Genetic Loss of Desmoglein 3 in Keratinocyte Adhesion
Desmoglein 1 can partly make up for the loss of Desmoglein 3 in hair adhesion but not in mucous membranes.
research Bidirectional binding property of high glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated protein contributes to the mechanical strength and shape of hair
High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.
research Combined Deletion of the Vitamin D Receptor and Calcium-Sensing Receptor Delays Wound Re-epithelialization
Removing vitamin D and calcium receptors in mice skin cells slows down skin wound healing.
research Monovalent antibody-conjugated lipid-polymer nanohybrids for active targeting to desmoglein 3 of keratinocytes to attenuate psoriasiform inflammation
The targeted nanohybrids effectively reduced psoriasis symptoms and improved skin health.
research Structural and biochemical changes underlying a keratoderma-like phenotype in mice lacking suprabasal AP1 transcription factor function
Inhibiting AP1 in mice skin causes structural changes and weakens the skin barrier.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Transgenic rescue of desmoglein 3 null mice with desmoglein 1 to develop a syngeneic mouse model for pemphigus vulgaris
The study created a mouse model that survives longer and shows fewer symptoms of pemphigus vulgaris.
research Breast cancer resistance protein identifies clonogenic keratinocytes in human interfollicular epidermis
ABCG2 protein marks stem-like skin cells in human epidermis.
research Kyoto Rhino Rats Derived by ENU Mutagenesis Undergo Congenital Hair Loss and Exhibit Focal Glomerulosclerosis
