research CD8-positive Lymphocytes in Graft-Versus-Host Disease of Humanized NOD.Cg-Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1Wjl/SzJ Mice
CD8+ T cells play a key role in graft-versus-host disease in certain mice models.
research Six Novel Susceptibility Loci for Early-Onset Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Unexpected Association with Common Diseases
Six new genetic regions linked to early hair loss also connect to Parkinson's disease and prostate cancer, possibly leading to new treatments.
research Non-apoptotic role for caspase-7 in hair follicles and the surrounding tissue
Caspase-7 has functions in skin and hair that are not related to cell death.
research MendelVar: gene prioritization at GWAS loci using phenotypic enrichment of Mendelian disease genes
MendelVar is a tool that helps identify important genes by combining GWAS data with Mendelian disease information.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Acne as a chronic systemic disease
Acne is a chronic disease linked to various systemic conditions and has significant psychological and social effects.
research The clinical evaluation of hirsutism
Hirsutism is excessive hair growth in women often caused by polycystic ovarian syndrome, and identifying the cause is important for managing associated health risks.
research Lymphatic vessels interact dynamically with the hair follicle stem cell niche during skin regeneration in vivo
Lymphatic vessels are essential for hair follicle growth and skin regeneration.
research State-dependent signaling by Cav1.2 regulates hair follicle stem cell function
Cav1.2 affects hair growth and could be a target for hair loss treatments.
research Ovarian morphology is associated with insulin resistance in women with polycystic ovary syndrome: a cross sectional study
Larger ovarian size is linked to higher insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Feline paraneoplastic alopecia associated with metastasising intestinal carcinoma
A cat with hair loss and illness was found to have cancer spread from its colon.
research Skin manifestations of endocrine diseases
Hormone imbalances from endocrine diseases can cause various skin conditions that help diagnose and treat these diseases early.
research Prevalence of skin diseases among hostellers attending the tertiary care hospital
Proper hygiene, adequate sleep, and self-care can reduce common skin diseases.
research Keratosis Pilaris Is a Keratinization of Hair Follicles
Keratosis pilaris is a common skin condition where hair follicles get clogged with keratin, mostly on the arms and thighs.
research Complications and Limitations of Melanocyte Transplantation
Melanocyte transplantation can safely restore skin color, especially in stable vitiligo, but must be chosen carefully based on the disease phase.
research Workup and Management of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The document concludes that managing PCOS involves lifestyle changes, medication, and monitoring for associated health risks.
research TRACHYONYCHIA ASSOCIATED WITH ALOPECIA AREATA AND SECONDARY ONYCHOMYCOSIS
An 8-year-old girl had nail and hair issues that improved without specific treatment, but fungal nail infection was hard to cure.
research SOCS1 and SOCS3 as key checkpoint molecules in the immune responses associated to skin inflammation and malignant transformation
SOCS1 and SOCS3 help control skin inflammation and are important for developing treatments for skin diseases.
research Microbiome in the hair follicle of androgenetic alopecia patients
Hair loss patients have different microbes in hair follicles, possibly affecting hair loss.
research Neuroprotective and immunomodulatory effects of human hair follicle stem cells on streptozotocin-induced memory impairment in rats: insights into inflammation and neurotrophic mechanisms
Human hair follicle stem cells improved memory and brain health in rats.
research Aging of the hair follicle pigmentation system
Hair grays due to oxidative stress and fewer functioning melanocytes.
research Transcriptome profiling of whisker follicles in methamphetamine self-administered rats
