Keloid skin disorder involves abnormal fibroblast activation and immune response, linked to a group of genes including FGF11.
research AB1159 HIGH FAT DIET AND THE ADIPOCYTE TO MYOFIBROBLAST TRANSITION: IMPLICATIONS FOR SYSTEMIC SCLEROSIS CUTANEOUS FIBROSIS
A high fat lard diet may protect against skin fibrosis and affect hair growth.
research Converging physiological roles of the anthrax toxin receptors
CMG2 and TEM8 receptors have distinct roles in skin and growth disorders, affecting collagen breakdown and growth.
research Fibroproliferative genes are preferentially expressed in central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia
Genes linked to fibrosis are more active in people with central centrifugal cicatricial alopecia.
research Secreted Frizzled-related protein 4 inhibits the regeneration of hair follicles
A protein called sFRP4 can slow down hair regrowth.
research The roles of collagen XVIII and its endostatin domain in wound healing, hair follicle cycling and bone development
Collagen XVIII affects wound healing, hair growth, and bone development, with its absence speeding up processes and overexpression causing delays and abnormalities.
research Author response: Human biallelic MFN2 mutations induce mitochondrial dysfunction, upper body adipose hyperplasia, and suppression of leptin expression
MFN2 mutations cause mitochondrial problems, leading to more upper body fat and lower leptin levels.
