research Epidermal Differentiation Complex: A Review on Its Epigenetic Regulation and Potential Drug Targets.
Understanding how EDC genes are regulated can help develop better drugs for skin diseases.
research Connexin 30, a new marker of hyperproliferative epidermis
Connexin 30 is usually absent in normal skin but can appear in certain skin conditions.
research Expression of steroidogenic enzymes in human sebaceous glands
Human sebaceous glands contain enzymes that affect androgen production and may influence sebum production and acne.
research Ligand‐independent epidermal growth factor receptor hyperactivation increases sebaceous gland size and sebum secretion in mice
EGFR hyperactivation increases sebaceous gland size and sebum production in mice.
research Clinicopathological features and expression of four keratins (K10, K14, K17 and K19) in six cases of eruptive vellus hair cysts
Eruptive vellus hair cysts likely originate from the infrainfundibulum and sebaceous duct.
research Expression of Uncoupling Proteins in Human Skin and Skin-Derived Cells
research Fine structure and immunocytochemistry of monotreme hairs, with emphasis on the inner root sheath and trichohyalin‐based cornification during hair evolution
Monotreme hair structure and protein distribution are similar to other mammals, but their inner root sheath cornifies differently, suggesting a unique evolution from reptile skin.
research STUDY OF CUTANEOUS MANIFESTATIONS IN THYROID DISORDERS
Skin problems are common in thyroid disorders, with dry skin in hypothyroidism and warm, soft skin in hyperthyroidism.
research Localization of Merkel cells at hairless and hairy human skin sites using keratin 18
Merkel cells are more densely found in hairless skin areas like palms and soles.
research An Interesting Case of X-linked Hypohidrotic Ectodermal Dysplasia
Recognizing mild or atypical cases of ectodermal dysplasia is crucial for better treatment and future planning.
research Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex Keratinocytes Show Disturbed Mitochondrial Positioning and Activity
Skin cells from people with Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex have abnormally placed and less active mitochondria.
research Anatomy and Physiology of the Skin
The skin is essential for protection, temperature control, and immune defense.
research Human hair follicles display a functional equivalent of the hypothalamic‐pituitary‐adrenal (HPA) axis and synthesize cortisol
Human hair follicles can produce cortisol like the body's stress response system.
research Sebum Production
Sebum production varies by individual and is influenced by age, gender, and hormones, affecting skin and hair health.
research A combination of low-dose systemic etretinate and topical calcipotriol/betamethasone dipropionate treatment for hyperkeratosis and itching in Olmsted syndrome associated with a TRPV3 mutation
The combined treatment effectively managed severe skin issues in Olmsted syndrome.
research Convergent evolution has led to the loss of claw proteins in snakes and worm lizards
Snakes and worm lizards lost claw proteins due to similar evolutionary changes.
research Epidermal Growth Factor Upregulates Production of Supernumerary Hair Cells in Neonatal Rat Organ of Corti Explants
Epidermal growth factor increases extra hair cells in newborn rat ears.
research Organizational principles of integumentary organs: Maximizing variations for effective adaptation
Integumentary organs adapt and evolve for survival, with potential uses in regenerative medicine.
research Melatonin induces a stimulatory action on the scrotal skin components of Soay ram in the non-breeding season
Melatonin stimulates the skin components of ram's scrotum during their non-breeding season.
research Endocrine controls of keratin expression
Hormones control keratin production in skin and hair.
research Anatomical, physiological, and behavioral mechanisms of thermoregulation in elephants
Elephants use their skin, ears, and behavior to cool down, but climate change makes it harder for them.
research Differentiation of the sebaceous gland
The exact molecular mechanisms of sebaceous gland function are still unclear.
research Substrate specific sulfatase activity from hair follicles in recessive X-linked ichthyosis
Recessive X-linked ichthyosis involves a less efficient enzyme in hair follicles, suggesting two distinct enzymes.
research Localization of Epidermal Growth Factor Immunoreactivity in Sheep Skin During Wool Follicle Development
research Solid basal cell epithelioma (BCE) possibly originates from the outer root sheath of the hair follicle.
Basal cell epithelioma likely starts from the hair follicle's outer root sheath.
research Occult syringomas of scalp associated with progressive hair loss
Hidden sweat gland tumors might cause hair loss.
