Boosting Wnt signaling improves skin wound healing.
research Association between the D19S884 marker at the insulin receptor gene locus and polycystic ovary syndrome
There's no significant link between the D19S884 marker at the insulin receptor gene and polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Studying the genetic predisposing factors in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
research Organ Specificity in Autoimmune Diseases: Thyroid and Islet Autoimmunity in Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is linked to thyroid autoimmunity but not type 1 diabetes.
research Dermatological symptoms and sexual abuse: a review and case reports
Skin problems can be linked to sexual abuse, requiring careful medical and psychological evaluation.
research What does acne genetics teach us about disease pathogenesis?
Acne is significantly influenced by genetics, and understanding its genetic basis could lead to better, targeted treatments.
research Evidence for a polygenic contribution to androgenetic alopecia
Hair loss risk is influenced by multiple genes.
research Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome associated with androgen insensitivity syndrome (testicular feminization)
A woman had both Graham Little-Piccardi-Lassueur syndrome, causing hair loss, and complete androgen insensitivity syndrome, making her genetically male but physically female. This suggests androgens don't affect the hair loss condition.
research Copy number variation regions in Nellore cattle: Evidences of environment adaptation
Nellore cattle have genetic variations linked to their adaptation to tropical environments.
research Newborn infant skin gene expression: Remarkable differences versus adults
Newborn skin is uniquely prepared to adapt to new environments compared to adult skin.
research Androgenetic alopecia; drug safety and therapeutic strategies
Personalized treatment with inhibitors, minoxidil, and laser therapy helps hair loss.
research A variant of the glucocorticoid receptor gene is not associated with adrenal androgen excess in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
The N363S gene variant does not cause higher adrenal androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Genetically Induced Cell Death in Bulge Stem Cells Reveals Their Redundancy for Hair and Epidermal Regeneration
Hair and skin can regenerate without bulge stem cells due to other compensating cells.
research An efficient, non-invasive approach for in-vivo sampling of hair follicles: design and applications in monitoring DNA damage and aging
A new painless method to collect hair follicles helps study DNA damage and aging.
research The spread of antimicrobial resistance in the aquatic environment from faecal pollution: a scoping review of a multifaceted issue
Faecal pollution significantly contributes to antimicrobial resistance in water, needing better wastewater management and research.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for BCC Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch flox/flox CD4Cre +/− Mice
Genetic mutation and carcinogen treatment are both needed for skin cancer to develop in these specific mice.
research Fatal Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis Associated with Minoxidil
Minoxidil can cause deadly skin reaction; monitor patients closely.
research Androgenetic alopecia and COVID ‐19: A review of the hypothetical role of androgens
Possible link between androgens and COVID-19 severity; more research needed.
research Polymorphism of CAG and GGN repeats of androgen receptor gene in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer GGN repeats in the androgen receptor gene are linked to polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Hair Follicle Disruption Facilitates Pathogenesis to UVB-Induced Cutaneous Inflammation and Basal Cell Carcinoma Development in Ptch+/− Mice
Damaged hair follicles make mice more prone to skin inflammation and skin cancer after UV exposure.
research Hair and nail disorders of childhood
The document concludes that various childhood hair and nail disorders exist, some may improve on their own, and advances in genetics and immunology could enhance treatment and counseling.
research Basal cell carcinoma of the scalp shows distinct features from the face in Asians
Scalp basal cell carcinoma in Asians is different from facial basal cell carcinoma, with unique features like being more common in younger people and having larger tumors.
research Mapping of a novel locus for keratosis follicularis squamosa on chromosome 7p14.3–7p12.1
A new gene location for Keratosis follicularis squamosa was found on chromosome 7p14.3-7p12.1.
research SNP Markers: Analysis of Genetic Diversity and Identification of Genomic Regions in Pantaneiro Sheep and Texel Sheep Under Natural Selection
Pantaneiro sheep have more genetic diversity than Texel sheep, with potential for future research in Brazilian farming.
research Possible association between androgenic alopecia and risk of prostate cancer and testicular germ cell tumor: a systematic review and meta-analysis
Baldness, especially at the front, may lower the risk of testicular cancer by 31%, but its link to prostate cancer is unclear.
