Epiprofin suppresses parathyroid hormone gene activity, helping regulate calcium levels and could be a treatment target for hyperparathyroidism.
research Editor’s picks January 2021
PrEP doesn't increase STI risk in high-risk men, anti-androgen drugs may lower ICU admission for male COVID-19 patients, a 3-point injection is better for crow's feet, and the 'Geriatric-8' tool could help assess frailty in older skin cancer patients.
research 260 Establishment and characterization of human sebocytic progenitor cells that can differentiate into functional sebocytes
Researchers created human cells that can turn into sebocytes, which may help study and treat skin conditions like acne.
research Kennedy's disease and partial androgen insensitivity syndrome. Report of 4 cases and literature review
The conclusion is that adult males with muscle weakness and hormonal imbalances should be tested for Kennedy's disease.
research Main Plenary Sessions: Summaries of Papers
UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.
research scINSIGHT for interpreting single-cell gene expression from biologically heterogeneous data
scINSIGHT accurately identifies cell clusters and gene patterns in complex data.
research Primary cicatricial alopecias are characterized by dysregulation of shared gene expression pathways
Similar treatments might work for different types of scarring hair loss.
research Minoxidil downregulates Interleukin-1 alpha gene expression in HaCaT cells
Minoxidil may help treat hair loss by reducing inflammation-related gene activity in skin cells.

research Low-Dose Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) Suppresses Androgen Receptor (AR) and Its Splice Variant AR-V7 in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) Cells
Low-dose DMSO may help treat castration-resistant prostate cancer by reducing key cancer cell receptors.
research Alopecia and COVID-19: possible etiopathogenetic variants and therapeutic approach
COVID-19 may cause hair loss, often after recovery, with androgenetic alopecia being the most common type.
research Novel Mutation in the Hemojuvelin Gene (HJV) in a Patient with Juvenile Hemochromatosis Presenting with Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus, Secondary Hypothyroidism and Hypogonadism
A new mutation in the HJV gene was found in a young woman with juvenile hemochromatosis, causing unusual symptoms like secondary hypothyroidism.
research MITF E318K naevus phenotype: the modifying role of MC1R Red Hair Variants
research HOXC13 Is Involved in the Regulation of Human Hair Keratin Gene Expression

research Integrated single-cell chromatin and transcriptomic analyses of human scalp identify gene-regulatory programs and critical cell types for hair and skin diseases
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
