research Hair shaft disorders: a rare case series
The document concludes that proper diagnosis and treatment of hair shaft disorders require understanding their unique causes and avoiding hair-damaging practices.
research From hair colour to diagnosis
Hair color is influenced by genetics and can indicate certain health conditions.
research Abstracts
New treatments and diagnostic methods for various animal skin conditions showed promising results.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research Follicular Neutrophilic Inflammation (Hidradenitis Suppurativa)
Hidradenitis Suppurativa is likely an autoinflammatory disease, and better understanding its causes could improve treatments.
research Estudo da diversidade dos genes MC1R e SLC24A5 em populações globais: avaliação de aspectos evolutivos e ambientais
SLC24A5 shows a clear selective sweep, but no link to UV radiation intensity.
research Skin Regeneration
New materials and methods could improve skin healing and reduce scarring.
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 Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research Use of chemotherapy during human pregnancy
Chemotherapy in the first trimester of pregnancy is risky, but in the second and third trimesters, it's generally safe with careful drug selection and timing.
research Distinct stem cells contribute to mammary gland development and maintenance
Different types of long-lasting stem cells are responsible for the growth and upkeep of the mammary gland.
research Modulating the stem cell niche for tissue regeneration
Changing the environment around stem cells could help tissue repair, but it's hard to be precise and avoid side effects.
research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Androgen Receptor Polymorphisms (CAG Repeat Lengths) in Androgenetic Alopecia, Hirsutism, and Acne
Shorter CAG repeats may cause hair and skin issues, while longer ones may link to acne.
research Why Some Women Look Young for Their Age
Women look young for their age due to larger lips, less sun damage, and genes that prevent gray hair and wrinkles.
research Genetic Analysis of Male Pattern Baldness and the 5α-Reductase Genes
Male pattern baldness is likely caused by multiple genes, not just 5α-reductase genes.
research Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia—Current Insights in Pathophysiology, Diagnostics, and Management
Early diagnosis and individualized treatment improve outcomes for Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia.
research Genetic Disorders and Defects in Vitamin D Action
Two rare genetic diseases cause severe rickets in children due to defects in vitamin D metabolism.
research Androgen Signaling Regulates SARS-CoV-2 Receptor Levels and Is Associated with Severe COVID-19 Symptoms in Men
Male hormones affect COVID-19 severity and certain drugs targeting these hormones could help reduce the risk.
research Disruption of FGF5 in Cashmere Goats Using CRISPR/Cas9 Results in More Secondary Hair Follicles and Longer Fibers
CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing in cashmere goats increases hair follicles and fiber length, boosting cashmere yield.
research Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern hair loss is genetic and influenced by hormones, with treatments like minoxidil and surgery available.
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 The genetics of alopecia areata: New approaches, new findings, new treatments
New genetic discoveries may lead to better treatments for alopecia areata.
research Skin grafting for the treatment of chronic leg ulcers – a systematic review in evidence‐based medicine
Skin grafts are effective for chronic leg ulcers, especially autologous split-thickness grafts for venous ulcers, but more data is needed for diabetic ulcers.
research Characteristics of Androgenetic Alopecia in Asian
Asian hair loss differs from Europeans; consider individual needs and psychological well-being for treatment.
research Evaluation of DNA Variants Associated with Androgenetic Alopecia and Their Potential to Predict Male Pattern Baldness
DNA variants can predict male pattern baldness, with higher risk scores increasing baldness likelihood.
research The Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Evolutionary Paradox: a Genome-Wide Association Studies–Based, in silico, Evolutionary Explanation
The research suggests that the global distribution of PCOS is likely due to historical human migration and that genes affecting PCOS may have different impacts on males and females.
research The biology of hair diversity
Hair diversity is influenced by complex genetics and environmental factors, requiring more research for practical solutions.
