The Rotterdam Study updated its design and objectives in 2012, providing insights into various diseases in the elderly, including skin cancer, bone health, liver disease, neurological and psychiatric conditions, and respiratory issues.
research Transforming growth factor-β in stem cells and tissue homeostasis
TGF-β is crucial for tissue repair and can cause diseases if not properly regulated.
research Roles for Msx and Dlx homeoproteins in vertebrate development
Msx and Dlx genes are crucial for development, controlling cell behaviors like growth and differentiation through their roles as gene regulators.
research Nerve dependence in tissue, organ, and appendage regeneration
Nerves are crucial for the regeneration of various body parts in many animals.

The Rotterdam Study aims to understand various diseases in older adults.
research Hair follicle differentiation and regulation.
Hair follicle growth and development are controlled by specific genes and molecular signals.
research Epigenetic control of adult stem cell function
Epigenetic changes control how adult stem cells work and can lead to diseases like cancer if they go wrong.
research Noninvasive method for assessing the human circadian clock using hair follicle cells
Scientists found a new, less invasive way to study body clocks using hair cells, which shows shift workers' body clocks don't match their lifestyles.
research The Immune Functions of Keratinocytes in Skin Wound Healing
Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.
research Epidemiology and burden of alopecia areata: a systematic review
Alopecia areata is a common autoimmune disease affecting about 2% of people, causing significant disability and often associated with mental health issues and other autoimmune conditions.
research K ATP Channels and Cardiovascular Disease
K_ATP channel gene mutations are linked to heart diseases, but more research is needed to understand the connection and treatment potential.
research Morpho-Regulation of Ectodermal Organs
Modulating BMP activity changes the number, size, shape, and type of ectodermal organs.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Physiological and retinoid-induced proliferations of epidermis basal keratinocytes are differently controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research Regulatory T Cells: the Many Faces of Foxp3
Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research Dermal Adipocyte Lipolysis and Myofibroblast Conversion Are Required for Efficient Skin Repair
Fat cells in the skin help start healing and form important repair cells after injury.
research Stretching the limits: from homeostasis to stem cell plasticity in wound healing and cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research Keratin 17 null mice exhibit age- and strain-dependent alopecia
Keratin 17 is crucial for early hair strength and cell survival.
research Extraskeletal actions of vitamin D
Vitamin D has potential benefits for cancer prevention, heart health, diabetes, obesity, muscle function, skin health, and immune function, but clinical results are mixed and more research is needed.
research Thyroid Hormones Directly Alter Human Hair Follicle Functions: Anagen Prolongation and Stimulation of Both Hair Matrix Keratinocyte Proliferation and Hair Pigmentation
Thyroid hormones help hair grow, reduce hair loss, and increase hair pigment.
