210-240 / 1000+ results research Characterization of Hair Follicle Antigens Targeted by the Anti-Hair Follicle Immune Response
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disorder causing hair loss, linked to specific hair follicle antigens and genetic factors.
research The Biology and Genomics of Human Hair Follicles: A Focus on Androgenetic Alopecia
Hair loss in Androgenetic Alopecia is caused by genetics, aging, and lifestyle, leading to hair follicle shrinkage and related health risks.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2019
The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.
research Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus
The document concludes that Cutaneous Lupus Erythematosus has different forms, is influenced by genetic and environmental factors, and can be treated with various medications, but more targeted therapies are needed.
research Progress of Integrated Medicine in the Treatment of Androgenic Alopecia
Traditional Chinese Medicine, combined with antiandrogen therapy, could improve treatment and reduce side effects for genetic hair loss.
research Symposium Proceedings of the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies: “The World of Hair 2004”
The 2004 hair research meeting presented new findings on hair cell differentiation, genetic factors in hair loss, hair pigmentation, and potential targeted therapies.
research PCOS in adolescents
PCOS in teens is hard to diagnose, linked to genetics and lifestyle, and managed with weight loss and medication.
research Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis is a rare, serious skin condition that can affect anyone, is more common in women, and may be linked to genetics, with a 20% mortality rate mainly due to sepsis.
research An infant with congenital micrognathia and upper airway obstruction was diagnosed as Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome caused by a novel LMNA mutation: Case report and literature review
An infant with Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome had successful surgery to fix breathing issues caused by a new genetic mutation.
research Alopecia Areata: A tissue specific autoimmune disease of the hair follicle
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss due to the immune system attacking hair follicles, often influenced by genetics and stress.
research Clinical Snippets
Melanoma risk tools need improvement, certain gene mutations cause skin diseases and could be treated by targeting those mutations, skin wrinkling may relate to lung aging due to genetic factors, and oxidative stress affects hair loss but can be reduced in low oxygen.
research From gene to therapy in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: Are we there yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
research Analysis of hidradenitis suppurativa–linked mutations in four genes and the effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages
The document concludes that certain mutations may contribute to the inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa and suggests that targeting TNFα could be a treatment strategy.
research Pathological Mechanisms Involved in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex: Current Knowledge and Therapeutic Perspectives
Promising treatments for EBS include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, creams, mTOR inhibitors, and gene editing, but more trials are needed.
research Hyperadrenocorticism in Ferrets
Hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets is linked to neutering and indoor housing, and is best treated with surgery and a deslorelin implant.
research Identification of Potential Hub Genes in Alopecia Areata
CD8A and FOXD2-AS1 may be key for diagnosing and treating alopecia areata.
research INDENTIFICATION OF GENES INVOLVED IN INHERITED ECTODERMAL DYSPLASIAS
Mutations in specific genes cause different types of ectodermal dysplasias.
research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
research Basal Cell Carcinoma, Hedgehog Signaling, and Targeted Therapeutics: The Long and Winding Road
New treatments targeting the Hedgehog pathway can help treat advanced skin cancer but may have side effects and their effectiveness in early stages is unknown.
research The Roles of Keratinocytes in the Initiation, Progression and Maintenance of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Keratinocytes contribute to hidradenitis suppurativa by causing inflammation and worsening the condition.
research Advances in Vitiligo Treatment
Vitiligo treatment requires a personalized mix of therapies to restore skin color and improve life quality.
research Alopecia Areata - Current and Emerging Therapies
New treatments like JAK inhibitors offer hope for hair regrowth in severe alopecia areata.
research Evidence on Hidradenitis Suppurativa as an Autoinflammatory Skin Disease
Hidradenitis suppurativa is linked to autoinflammation and immune system issues.
research Mitochondrial dysfunction in metabolic syndrome and inflammatory skin disease
Mitochondrial dysfunction links metabolic syndrome and inflammatory skin diseases, suggesting targeted therapies and lifestyle changes.
research Research Snippets
New gene mutations linked to skin conditions were found, bacteria and chemicals may worsen acne, a dog mutation could exist in humans, virus-like elements might be involved in psoriasis, and a vitamin D3 treatment doesn't prevent chemotherapy-related hair loss.
research Androgens and hair loss
The document concludes that hair transplantation and gene therapy may be important for future hair loss treatment.
research Integrative analysis of rare copy number variants and gene expression data in alopecia areata implicates an aetiological role for autophagy
The research suggests that autophagy-related genes might play a role in causing alopecia areata.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: Update on Diagnosis and Treatment
The conclusion is that early diagnosis and a multi-system treatment approach are crucial for managing PCOS and its associated health risks.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome
PCOS is a condition causing irregular periods, excess male hormones, and infertility, often managed by targeting insulin resistance and specific symptoms.
