research Association between VEGF gene polymorphisms (11 sites) and polycystic ovary syndrome risk
Certain changes in the VEGF gene can increase or decrease the risk of polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Androgens trigger different growth responses in genetically identical human hair follicles in organ culture that reflect their epigenetic diversity in life
Male hormones cause different growth in identical human hair follicles due to their unique epigenetic characteristics.
research High-throughput T cell receptor sequencing identifies clonally expanded CD8+ T cell populations in alopecia areata
CD8+ T cells are involved in alopecia areata and may cause disease relapse.
research A Ca 2+ /calmodulin-dependent protein kinase required for symbiotic nodule development: Gene identification by transcript-based cloning
The DMI3 gene is essential for nodule development and symbiosis in certain plants.
research Single-cell analysis reveals fibroblast heterogeneity and myeloid-derived adipocyte progenitors in murine skin wounds
The research found that different types of fibroblasts are involved in wound healing and that some blood cells can turn into fat cells during this process.
research Stem cell dynamics, migration and plasticity during wound healing
Stem cells help heal skin wounds by moving and changing roles, working with other cells, and needing more research on their activation and behavior.
research Tissue engineering of human hair follicles using a biomimetic developmental approach
Researchers created human hair follicles using a new method that could help treat hair loss.
research Ubiquity and Diversity of Human-Associated Demodex Mites

research Mutations in the Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlie Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis with Monilethrix Hairs and Congenital Scalp Erosions
Mutations in the DSG4 gene cause specific hair and scalp issues.
research Isolation and Characterization of Human Repetin, a Member of the Fused Gene Family of the Epidermal Differentiation Complex
Repetin is a protein involved in skin and hair development, binding calcium and compensating for other proteins when needed.
research Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor whn regulates hair keratin gene expression: Molecular analysis of theNude skin phenotype
Whn is essential for hair growth, and its malfunction causes hair loss.
research Pathways to inflammation: acne pathophysiology
Acne is caused by genetics, diet, hormones, and bacteria, with treatments not yet curative.
research The Nude Mutant Gene Foxn1 Is a HOXC13 Regulatory Target during Hair Follicle and Nail Differentiation
HOXC13 is essential for hair and nail development by regulating Foxn1.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.
research Early onset and novel features in a spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patient with a 68 CAG repeat
A patient with a larger than usual genetic mutation had a broader range of symptoms for a muscle disease.
research Prognosis and Management of Congenital Hair Shaft Disorders with Fragility—Part I
Some congenital hair disorders improve in childhood or with treatments like minoxidil and retinoids, while others like Netherton syndrome and trichothiodystrophy have a poor prognosis.
research A Missense Mutation in the Cadherin Interaction Site of The Desmoglein 4 Gene Underlies Localized Autosomal Recessive Hypotrichosis
A specific gene mutation causes sparse, brittle hair in a family.

research Identification of the keratin-associated protein 13-3 (KAP13-3) gene in sheep
The KAP13-3 gene in sheep affects wool quality by influencing keratin assembly.
research The sheep KAP8-2 gene, a new KAP8 family member that is absent in humans
Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
