The activity of a specific rat enzyme in the prostate and epididymis is highly dependent on the acidity level.
research The Lysosomal Protease Cathepsin L Is an Important Regulator of Keratinocyte and Melanocyte Differentiation During Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Cycling
Cathepsin L is essential for normal hair growth and development.
research Refatting rate of human hair lipids after exposure to selenium disulphide detergents
Selenium disulphide detergents increase hair oiliness by boosting some lipids and reducing fatty acids.
research Efficacy of Dupilumab in Treating Atopic Dermatitis With Recurrent Eczema Herpeticum in a Patient With DOCK8-Deficiency Hyper-IgE Syndrome: A Case Report
Dupilumab helped improve skin and prevent new lesions in a child with a rare immune disorder and severe eczema.
research Mutations in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlie Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis with Monilethrix Hairs and Congenital Scalp Erosions
Mutations in the DSG4 gene cause specific hair and scalp issues.
research Mutations in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Are Associated with Monilethrix-like Congenital Hypotrichosis
Mutations in the DSG4 gene can cause a rare hair disorder similar to monilethrix.
research Association of Human Beta – Defensin 1 Gene Polymorphisms with Alopecia Areata Patients
