390-420 / 1000+ resultsresearch Molecular Genetic Characteristics of the Hoxc13 Gene and Association Analysis of Wool Traits
Hoxc13 gene affects wool length in Gansu alpine fine-wool sheep.
research Surgical Management of Scarring Alopecia
Hair loss due to scarring can be treated by reducing inflammation, removing scar tissue, and transplanting hair. The Follicular Unit Extraction technique is effective but requires skill and time. Future focus should be on scar-less healing methods.
research Conditional Knockout in Mice Reveals the Critical Roles of Ppp2ca in Epidermis Development
PP2Acα is essential for proper hair and skin development.
research Vitamin A regulates dermal papilla cell proliferation and apoptosis under heat stress via IGF1 and Wnt10b signaling
Vitamin A helps rabbit skin cells grow and survive heat stress.
research Msx2 deficiency in mice causes pleiotropic defects in bone growth and ectodermal organ formation
Msx2 deficiency in mice leads to bone growth and organ development problems.
research Transgenic mice provide new insights into the role of TGF-alpha during epidermal development and differentiation.
TGF-alpha affects skin thickness, hair growth, and may contribute to psoriasis and papilloma formation.
research Wnt/β-catenin signalling: function, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is important for body functions and diseases, and targeting it may treat conditions like cancer, but with safety challenges.
research Tissue engineering of skin and regenerative medicine for wound care
Current skin substitutes help heal severe burns but don't fully replicate natural skin features.
research Matriptase: Potent Proteolysis on the Cell Surface
Matriptase is crucial for skin, hair, and immune cell health, and its imbalance can lead to cancer.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
