research Towards a molecular understanding of hair loss and its treatment
Future hair loss treatments should aim to extend hair growth, reactivate resting follicles, reverse shrinkage, and possibly create new follicles, with gene therapy showing promise.
research Eph Receptors and Ephrins: Therapeutic Opportunities
Eph receptors and ephrins may be promising targets for treating diseases, but more understanding is needed for effective and safe therapies.
research Bone Morphogenetic Proteins and Their Antagonists in Skin and Hair Follicle Biology
Bone Morphogenetic Proteins (BMPs) help control skin health, hair growth, and color, and could potentially be used to treat skin and hair disorders.
research Hair follicle stem cells: Walking the maze
Hair follicle stem cells are key for hair and skin regeneration, can be reprogrammed, and have potential therapeutic uses, but also carry a risk of cancer.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.

research A PAX1 enhancer locus is associated with susceptibility to idiopathic scoliosis in females
A genetic region near the PAX1 gene is linked to a higher risk of scoliosis in females.
research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an α-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
A mutation in the KRT75 gene causes frizzle feathers in chickens.
research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research The Senescence–Stemness Alliance – A Cancer-Hijacked Regeneration Principle
Cancer can hijack the body's cell repair system to promote tumor growth, and targeting this process may improve cancer treatments.
research WNT10A promotes an invasive and self-renewing phenotype in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma
WNT10A helps esophageal cancer cells spread and keep renewing themselves.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research Noncoding dsRNA induces retinoic acid synthesis to stimulate hair follicle regeneration via TLR3
Noncoding dsRNA boosts hair growth by activating TLR3 and increasing retinoic acid.
research Functional identification of the phosphorylation sites of Arabidopsis PIN-FORMED3 for its subcellular localization and biological role
Phosphorylation of certain parts of the PIN3 protein is crucial for its role in plant root growth and response to gravity.
research Different gene expression profile observed in dermal papilla cells related to androgenic alopecia by DNA macroarray analysis
Hair loss in balding individuals is linked to changes in specific hair growth-related genes.
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 Lymphatic vessels interact dynamically with the hair follicle stem cell niche during skin regeneration in vivo
Lymphatic vessels are essential for hair follicle growth and skin regeneration.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
