research Genetic screening of non-classic CAH females with hyperandrogenemia identifies a novel CYP11B1 gene mutation
A new mutation in the CYP11B1 gene was found in a woman with mild hyperandrogenemia, a rare cause of non-classic congenital adrenal hyperplasia.
research Alopecia areata - probing the deforestation
The document concludes that doctors should recognize congenital triangular alopecia to avoid unnecessary treatments, as it does not respond to steroids like alopecia areata does.
research Hyperpigmentation and Melasma
Hyperpigmentation is common in pregnancy and may not fully fade after birth; melasma, also frequent, can persist but has limited treatment options during pregnancy.
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 Viewpoint 1
Understanding skin patterns can help us learn about skin diseases and their treatments.
research Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research Androgenic alopecia in men: the significance of genetic, hormonal and metabolic factors (prospective cohort comparative study)
Androgenic alopecia in men is mainly linked to family history, hormonal imbalances, and metabolic issues, but can also be influenced by lifestyle habits, environmental factors, and deficiencies in certain vitamins and microelements like copper.
research A Study of the androgen receptor gene polymorphism and the level of expression of the androgen receptor in androgenetic alopecia among Egyptians
The study suggests that a specific gene variation and higher gene activity are linked to increased baldness in Egyptian men.
research A null mutation in the cystatin M/E gene of ichq mice causes juvenile lethality and defects in epidermal cornification
A gene mutation in mice causes skin defects and early death.
research Ornithine decarboxylase transgenic mice as a model for human atrichia with papular lesions
ODC transgenic mice can model human hair loss with skin lesions.
research May the best wound WIHN: the hallmarks of wound-induced hair neogenesis
Wounds can cause new hair growth in adult mice, influenced by Wnt signaling.
research STAT3 Partly Inhibits Cell Proliferation via Direct Negative Regulation of FST Gene Expression
The protein STAT3 slows down cell growth by blocking the FST gene, which affects hair development in sheep.
research Management of autoimmune associated alopecia areata
Treatments for autoimmune hair loss have limited success and often relapse, and emotional support is crucial for those affected.
research La alopecia androgénica femenina: ¿cuáles son las principales preguntas de mis pacientes?
Female androgenetic alopecia affects many women, is reversible with treatment like Minoxidil, and has significant psychological impacts.
research Penetration of drugs through skin, a complex rate-controlling membrane
The skin is a complex barrier for drug penetration, but understanding its structure and interactions can improve drug delivery methods.
research Reversal of Alopecia Areata Following Treatment With the JAK1/2 Inhibitor Baricitinib
A patient with Alopecia Areata had complete hair regrowth after using the drug baricitinib.
research Beyond acne: Current aspects of sebaceous gland biology and function
The sebaceous gland has more roles than just producing sebum and contributing to acne, and new research could lead to better skin disease treatments.
research GROWTH FACTORS IN HAIR ORGAN DEVELOPMENT AND THE HAIR GROWTH CYCLE
Growth factors are crucial for hair development and could help treat hair diseases.
research BMP2 and BMP7 play antagonistic roles in feather induction
BMP2 and BMP7 have opposite roles in feather formation.
research Skin connective tissue and ageing
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Alopecia in a Novel Mouse Model RCO3 Is Caused by mK6irs1 Deficiency
A missing mK6irs1 gene causes hair loss in mice.
research An Animal Model of Trichloroethylene-Induced Skin Sensitization in BALB/c Mice
Trichloroethylene causes skin inflammation in mice by increasing certain immune proteins.
research Generating mouse models of degenerative diseases using Cre/lox-mediated in vivo mosaic cell ablation
The study created a mouse model to mimic degenerative diseases for testing tissue repair and new therapies.
research Heat treatment increases the incidence of alopecia areata in the C3H/HeJ mouse model
Heat treatment increases hair loss in certain mice.
research Transgenic Flash Mice for In Vivo Quantitative Monitoring of Canonical Wnt Signaling to Track Hair Follicle Cycle Dynamics
Researchers developed a mouse model that tracks hair growth using bioluminescence, improving accuracy in studying hair cycles.
research Developing Patient-Derived 3D-Bioprinting models of pancreatic cancer
3D-bioprinting models of pancreatic cancer could help personalize treatments but need more testing.
research Noyes-Whitney Dissolution Model-Based pH-Sensitive Slow Release of Paclitaxel (Taxol) from Human Hair-Derived Keratin Microparticle Carriers
Human hair-derived particles can effectively carry and release the cancer drug Paclitaxel in a pH-sensitive manner, potentially targeting cancer cells while sparing healthy ones.
