research Novel associations of VPS13C with phenotype and conversion of idiopathic REM sleep behavior disorder
VPS13C variants are linked to more severe REM sleep disorder and faster progression to Parkinson's disease.
research Molecular principles of hair follicle induction and morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research A family business: stem cell progeny join the niche to regulate homeostasis
Stem cell offspring help control their parent stem cells, affecting tissue health, healing, and cancer.
research Teriflunomide and Its Mechanism of Action in Multiple Sclerosis
Teriflunomide helps reduce multiple sclerosis symptoms and is safe for most patients.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Somatic stem cell heterogeneity: diversity in the blood, skin and intestinal stem cell compartments
Different types of stem cells with unique roles exist in blood, skin, and intestines, and this variety is important for tissue repair.
research HAIR REGROWTH
Finasteride and minoxidil are effective for hair regrowth, while treatments for alopecia areata have varying success and continuous treatment is necessary.
research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research N-terminal functional domain of Gasdermin A3 regulates mitochondrial homeostasis via mitochondrial targeting
Mutations in Gasdermin A3 cause skin inflammation and hair loss by disrupting mitochondria.
research Regenerative Hair Waves in Aging Mice and Extra-Follicular Modulators Follistatin, Dkk1, and Sfrp4
Aging mice have slower hair regeneration due to changes in signal balance, but the environment, not stem cell loss, controls this, suggesting treatments could focus on environmental factors.
research Stem cell quiescence acts as a tumour suppressor in squamous tumours
Inactive hair follicle stem cells help prevent skin cancer.
research CXCR3 Blockade Inhibits T Cell Migration into the Skin and Prevents Development of Alopecia Areata
Blocking the CXCR3 receptor reduces T cell accumulation in the skin and prevents hair loss in mice.
research Bi-allelic Mutations in LSS, Encoding Lanosterol Synthase, Cause Autosomal-Recessive Hypotrichosis Simplex
Mutations in the LSS gene cause a rare type of hereditary hair loss.
research Genetic Defects in Human Pericentrin Are Associated With Severe Insulin Resistance and Diabetes
People with PCNT mutations often develop severe insulin resistance and early-onset diabetes during childhood or adolescence.
research Steroidal 5α-reductase and 17α-hydroxylase/17,20-lyase (CYP17) inhibitors useful in the treatment of prostatic diseases
Certain drugs that block specific enzymes can help treat prostate diseases.
research Clinical application of 5α-reductase inhibitors
5α-reductase inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, effectively treat BPH, male baldness, and hirsutism, with potential for acne and prostate cancer prevention.
research To grow or not to grow: Hair morphogenesis and human genetic hair disorders
Genetic mutations can cause hair growth disorders by affecting key genes and signaling pathways.
research How to distinguish medicalization from over-medicalization?
The article suggests using four questions to tell apart necessary medicalization from excessive medicalization, focusing on problem significance, social expectations, medical understanding, and effective resolution.
research Persistent escalation of alcohol consumption by mice exposed to brief episodes of social defeat stress: suppression by CRF-R1 antagonism
Blocking CRF-R1 can reduce alcohol intake in stressed mice.
research Recent advances on skin‐resident stem/progenitor cell functions in skin regeneration, aging and cancers and novel anti‐aging and cancer therapies
New treatments targeting skin stem cells show promise for skin repair, anti-aging, and cancer therapy.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research Mammalian Fetal Organ Regeneration
Fetal wounds heal without scarring because of different biological factors, which could help improve adult wound healing.
research Topical minoxidil counteracts stress-induced hair growth inhibition in mice
Minoxidil helps prevent stress-caused hair loss in mice.
research β-Catenin Inactivation Is a Pre-Requisite for Chick Retina Regeneration
Inactivating β-catenin is essential for chick retina regeneration.
research Alopecia areata: A review
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune hair loss condition treated with corticosteroids, and histologic confirmation is the best diagnosis method.
research Minoxidil is a potential neuroprotective drug for paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy
Minoxidil may protect nerves and improve hair quality during paclitaxel treatment.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research The Role of Non-Aromatizable Testosterone Metabolite in Metabolic Pathways
Normal levels of DHT can reduce belly fat and increase muscle, but too much can lead to hair loss, prostate issues, and possibly heart disease.
research Novel aspects of age-protection by spermidine supplementation are associated with preserved telomere length
