research Global Landscapes of Human Phenotypic Variation in Inherited Traits
Different human traits like skin color and hair type vary between populations due to genetic adaptations to the environment.
research Melanocytes and Vitiligo (and Hair Graying)
Melanocytes produce melanin; their defects cause vitiligo and hair graying, with treatments available for vitiligo.
research Geriatric Dermatologic Therapy
Elderly skin care needs personalized treatment, early intervention, and integrated psychiatric care.
research Bioregenerative Applications of the Human Mesenchymal Stem Cell- Derived Secretome: Part-II
The mesenchymal stem cell secretome may effectively treat various diseases as an alternative to traditional stem cell therapies.
research Hutchinson-Gilford syndrome: History, causes, phenotype and research advances
Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome causes rapid aging from a genetic mutation, with no cure but ongoing research into potential treatments.
research 1338 Dermal Wnt/β-catenin activation tunably controls hair follicle initiation
Activating Wnt in skin cells controls the number of hair follicles by directing cell movement and fate.
research Association of insulin-like growth factor 2 Apa1 A820G gene (rs680) polymorphism with polycystic ovarian syndrome
A certain gene variation is linked to a higher risk of polycystic ovarian syndrome in South Indian women.
research Sprayable supramolecular hydrogel with minimalism for wilderness first aid: integration of mechanical performance and biofunctionality
The hydrogel speeds up wound healing and fights bacteria, making it great for emergency use.
research 5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine induced effluvium via p53-mediated CD326-positive keratinocyte apoptosis in C57BL/6 mice
A chemical called 5-Bromo-2′-deoxyuridine caused rapid hair loss in mice by killing certain skin cells through a specific cell death pathway.
research Defining the impact of β-catenin/Tcf transactivation on epithelial stem cells
β-catenin is essential for stem cell activation and proliferation in hair follicles.
research Sexual Hormones in Human Skin
Human skin makes sexual hormones that affect hair growth, skin health, and healing; too much can cause acne and hair loss, while treatments can manage these conditions.
research The transcriptional repressor CDP (Cutl1) is essential for epithelial cell differentiation of the lung and the hair follicle
CDP is crucial for lung and hair follicle cell development.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research WNT Signaling in Disease
The WNT signaling pathway is important in many diseases and targeting it could offer new treatments.
research Sex differences in COVID-19: the role of androgens in disease severity and progression
Male hormones like testosterone may make COVID-19 worse, and testing for sensitivity to these hormones could help predict how severe a patient's symptoms might be. Treatments that reduce these hormones are being explored.
research Androgens and androgen receptor action in skin and hair follicles
Male hormones and their receptors play a key role in hair loss and skin health, with potential new treatments being explored.
research Expression patterns of three estrogen receptor genes during zebrafish (Danio rerio) development: evidence for high expression in neuromasts
The three estrogen receptor genes are highly expressed in zebrafish neuromasts during development.
research Wnt signaling in skin organogenesis
Wnt signaling is crucial for skin and hair development and its disruption can cause skin tumors.
research Androgen receptors and their biology
Androgen receptors are key for development and health, affecting conditions like prostate cancer and male pattern baldness.
research Recent advances in the molecular mechanisms determining tissue sensitivity to glucocorticoids: novel mutations, circadian rhythm and ligand-induced repression of the human glucocorticoid receptor
New findings explain how genetic changes, body clocks, and certain molecules affect tissue response to stress hormones.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Hoxc-Dependent Mesenchymal Niche Heterogeneity Drives Regional Hair Follicle Regeneration
Hoxc genes control hair growth through Wnt signaling.
research Interactions of the Vitamin D Receptor with the Corepressor Hairless
Most Hairless gene mutations reduce its ability to work with the Vitamin D Receptor, which might explain a certain type of hair loss.
research An overview of JAK/STAT pathways and JAK inhibition in alopecia areata
Blocking JAK/STAT pathways can help treat hair loss from alopecia areata.
research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research Redefining hormone resistance in prostate cancer
The conclusion suggests that prostate cancer should be classified by castration status and that new therapies targeting androgen receptor signaling show promise.
research The Effects of Androgens on T Cells: Clues to Female Predominance in Autoimmune Liver Diseases?
Androgens may influence T cells, contributing to higher autoimmune liver disease risk in women.
research Polymorphisms in androgen and estrogen receptor genes: effects on male aging
Changes in testosterone and estrogen receptor genes can affect how men age, influencing body fat, hair patterns, and possibly leading to skin disorders.
research Alopecia - the search for novel agents continues
Many potential alopecia treatments need more testing to confirm they promote acceptable hair growth with minimal side effects.
