Genetics play a major role in acne, but environmental factors and epigenetics also contribute.
research Small Molecule Inhibitors and Inflammatory Skin Diseases
New drugs targeting the JAK-STAT pathway show promise for treating inflammatory skin diseases.
research Neurogenic Inflammation in Stress-Induced Termination of Murine Hair Growth Is Promoted by Nerve Growth Factor
Stress increases a factor in mice that leads to hair loss, and blocking this factor may prevent it.
research Specific receptor detection by a functional keratinocyte growth factor-immunoglobulin chimera.
A new protein was made to detect specific skin cell growth receptors and worked in normal skin but not in skin cancer cells.
research Murine Cytomegalovirus is Not Associated With Alopecia Areata in C3H/HeJ Mice
Murine cytomegalovirus does not cause alopecia areata in these mice.
research The Pathogenesis of Oxidative Stress in Androgenetic Alopecia
Oxidative stress damages hair follicles and worsens hair loss in androgenetic alopecia.
research Is There a Histone Code for Cellular Quiescence?
There might be a specific histone code for cellular quiescence, but more research is needed.
research Hair follicles modulate skin barrier function
Hair follicles play a crucial role in regulating skin barrier function.
research Amphiregulin in Fibrotic Diseases and Cancer
Targeting amphiregulin may improve treatment for fibrosis and cancer.
research Platelet factor 4 inhibits human hair follicle growth and promotes androgen receptor expression in human dermal papilla cells
Platelet factor 4 slows down hair growth and could make hair loss treatments more effective if removed.
research 1434 Role of fibroblast DPP4 in wound healing, scarring and regeneration
DPP4 is important for scarring and skin regeneration, and managing its activity could improve skin healing treatments.
research 1435 Dynamic morphogen-p63 chromatin interactions that guide epigenetic changes and p63 activity in surface ectoderm commitment
The study found that p63 needs signals from morphogens to help skin cells differentiate properly.
research Glucocorticoid Receptor Mutants Demonstrate Increased Motility Inside the Nucleus of Living Cells: Time of Fluorescence Recovery After Photobleaching (FRAP) Is an Integrated Measure of Receptor Function
Certain defective glucocorticoid receptor mutants move faster inside cell nuclei and work less effectively.
research Control of hair growth and follicle size by VEGF-mediated angiogenesis
VEGF helps hair grow and determines follicle size by increasing blood vessel growth.
research Skin aging: are adipocytes the next target?
Targeting dermal adipocytes may help combat skin aging.
research TGFβ and cancer metastasis: an inflammation link
TGFβ's manipulation of inflammation and immune cells affects cancer spread, suggesting new treatment strategies and biomarkers.
