research 898 Homeostatic activation of epidermal HSD11b1 affects skin innervation and non-histaminergic itch
HSD11b1 affects skin nerves and increases non-histaminergic itch.
research 269 The PPAR-γ modulator, N-acetyl-GED, protects from epithelial-mesenchymal-transition to human hair follicles: Potential relevance for scarring alopecia
N-acetyl-GED may help prevent and partially reverse a process that leads to scarring hair loss.
research Cell surface receptor kinase FERONIA linked to nutrient sensor TORC signaling controls root hair growth at low temperature linked to low nitrate inArabidopsis thaliana
A protein called FERONIA helps control root hair growth in response to cold and low nitrogen by activating nutrient-sensing pathways in a plant called Arabidopsis.
research Folliculin encoded by the BHD gene interacts with a binding protein, FNIP1, and AMPK, and is involved in AMPK and mTOR signaling
Folliculin helps regulate energy and nutrient sensing, impacting Birt–Hogg–Dubé syndrome.

Targeting NCoR1 can help treat heart enlargement and dysfunction.
research Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D Resistant Rickets due to a Mutation Causing Multiple Defects in Vitamin D Receptor Function
A specific gene mutation causes vitamin D resistance, but certain vitamin D analogs might help.
research 1428 DKK2 and SOSTDC1 cooperate to initiate the first catagen phase of the hair follicle growth cycle
DKK2 and SOSTDC1 together are necessary for the normal timing of the first regression phase in the hair growth cycle.
research Cortisol Enhances the Expression of mac25/Insulin-Like Growth Factor-Binding Protein-Related Protein-1 in Cultured Osteoblasts**This work was supported by NIDDK Grant DK-45227 and a scholarship (to R.C.P.) from Fundacao Coordenacao de Aperfeicoa mento de Pessoal de Nivel Superior (CAPES), Universidade de Sao Paulo (Sao Paulo, Brazil).
Cortisol increases a specific protein in bone cells, which may help explain its negative effects on bone.
research A Novel Type II Cytokeratin, mK6irs, is Expressed in the Huxley and Henle Layers of the Mouse Inner Root Sheath
A new protein, mK6irs, is found in specific hair layers and may help understand hair growth and diseases.
