690-720 / 1000+ results research Rapidly progressive diffuse fibrosing alopecia
These hair loss conditions might be part of a spectrum, not separate issues.
research Estudio de la expresión de receptores de andrógenos, estrógenos y progesterona mediante inmunohistoquímica en pacientes con alopecia frontal fibrosante
The study suggests a possible increase in androgen receptors in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia, but more research is needed.
research An ERK-dependent molecular switch antagonizes fibrosis and promotes regeneration in spiny mice ( Acomys )
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.
research Birt-Hogg-Dube Syndrome with a Novel Mutation in the FLCN Gene
A new mutation in the FLCN gene linked to Birt-Hogg-Dube syndrome was found, suggesting people with certain lung collapse should be tested for this mutation and screened for kidney and colon cancer.
research HR Gene Variants Identified in Mexican Patients with Alopecia Areata
A specific gene variant may increase the risk of developing Alopecia Areata.
research A novel 22-bp InDel within FGF7 gene is significantly associated with growth traits in goat
A specific gene variation in goats is linked to better growth traits.
research 321 Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing HIF-P4H-2 from certain skin cells in mice causes hair loss on the body but not the head.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research 879 Molecular network of Smads and Id2 genes in hair follicle stem cells regulation
The BMP/Smads pathway and Id2 gene control hair follicle stem cells, affecting their rest and growth phases.
research Evaluation of Gene Expression Patterns in Micrografts Demonstrate Induction of Catagen-Like Processes During Storage
Storing hair follicle micrografts for longer times can cause them to enter a state similar to the natural hair shedding phase, which might impact hair transplant results.
research RETRACTED ARTICLE: Up-regulated lncRNA5322 elevates MAPK1 to enhance proliferation of hair follicle stem cells as a ceRNA of microRNA-19b-3p
A specific RNA increases hair stem cell growth and skin healing by affecting a protein through interaction with a microRNA.
research Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) activator expressed in hair follicles is involved in in vitro HGF-dependent hair follicle elongation
HGF activator helps convert HGF to its active form, promoting hair growth.
research Progeny of Lgr5-expressing hair follicle stem cell contributes to papillomavirus-induced tumor development in epidermis
research MicroRNA-21 in Skin Fibrosis: Potential for Diagnosis and Treatment
MicroRNA-21 could help diagnose and treat skin fibrosis.
research VEGF induces proliferation of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells through VEGFR-2-mediated activation of ERK
VEGF promotes hair follicle cell growth through the VEGFR-2/ERK pathway.
research Disruption of tubular Flcn expression as a mouse model for renal tumor induction
Disrupting the Flcn gene in mice causes early kidney cysts and tumors, which can be treated with rapamycin.
research Human hair follicle stem cell differentiation into contractile smooth muscle cells is induced by transforming growth factor-β1 and platelet-derived growth factor BB
Human hair follicle stem cells can become smooth muscle cells using specific growth factors.
research 1349 Stimulation of hair follicle stem cell proliferation through an IL-1α dependent activation of γδT-cells
Certain immune cells, when activated by specific signals, can encourage hair growth.
research Androgen receptor-mediated gene activation in prostate cancer cells
Androgen receptors help prostate cancer cells grow and resist drugs.
research 1349 Inducing fate changes at the hair follicle stem cell nice
The study found that aging hair follicle stem cells change behavior, leading to hair loss, but drugs targeting these cells may help restore hair growth.
research Differential expression of mTOR signaling pathway proteins in lichen planopilaris and frontal fibrosing alopecia
The mTOR pathway proteins are altered in the hair follicles of patients with Lichen Planopilaris and Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia.
research Spatial transcriptomics of a giant pilomatricoma
The analysis of a large pilomatricoma revealed five distinct areas with different gene activity related to hair growth and tumor development.
research Regulation of Receptor Binding Specificity of FGF9 by an Autoinhibitory Homodimerization
FGF9 controls which receptors it binds to through a process where two FGF9 molecules join, and changes in FGF9 can lead to incorrect receptor activation.
research CRISPR/Cas9‐mediated loss of FGF5 function increases wool staple length in sheep
Disabling the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to longer wool.
research A new way to restore tumour suppressor function
New treatments may restore cancer-blocking proteins, slow prostate cancer, identify drug targets, and potentially regrow hair.
research Conditional epidermal expression of TGFβ1 blocks neonatal lethality but causes a reversible hyperplasia and alopecia
TGFβ1 expression in skin causes hair loss and skin thickening, but these effects are reversible.
research Suppression of fibroblast proliferation and lysyl hydroxylase activity by minoxidil.
Minoxidil slows fibroblast growth and collagen production, potentially treating keloids, hypertrophic scars, and connective tissue disorders.
