690-720 / 1000+ resultsresearch Simultaneous occurrence of neuromyotonia and morphoea: a cause-effect relationship?
Neuromyotonia and morphoea can occur together in the same body areas.
research The abnormal, mis-localizated HR bmh protein associates with members of the protein processing machinery in the cytoplasm
The mutant HR bmh protein mis-localizes in cells, affecting skin and hair development.
research Finasteride inhibits melanogenesis through regulation of the adenylate cyclase in melanocytes and melanoma cells
Finasteride reduces melanin production, possibly treating hyperpigmentation and melanoma, but needs more safety research.
research A case of congenital pili multigemini
A rare, harmless hair condition was found in an infant's eyebrow, needing no treatment.
research Giant pigmented tumour of the scalp—a diffuse neurofibroma or a congenital naevus showing neurofibromatous changes? Immunohistochemical and electron microscopic studies
The tumor likely shows dual neural crest differentiation.
research Acantholytic hair casts: A dermoscopic sign of pemphigus vulgaris of the scalp
Hair casts on the scalp may be a sign of ongoing pemphigus vulgaris and could suggest a need to adjust treatment.
research INTERACTION OF α-MELANOCYTE-STIMULATING HORMONE, MELATONIN, CYCLIC AMP AND CYCLIC GMP IN THE CONTROL OF MELANOGENESIS IN HAIR FOLLICLE MELANOCYTES IN VITRO
α-MSH and cyclic AMP boost melanin production, while cyclic GMP and melatonin reduce it.
research MON-LB044 Bilateral Ovarian Hyperthecosis: A Benign and Unusual Cause of Postmenopausal Hirsutism
Bilateral ovarian hyperthecosis is a rare but treatable cause of increased facial hair in postmenopausal women.
research Circle Hairs in a Patient with Multiple Myeloma
An elderly woman with cancer improved after treatment for a rare skin condition with coiled hairs.
research Detection of Functionally Active Melanocortin Receptors and Evidence for an Immunoregulatory Activity of α-Melanocyte-Stimulating Hormone in Human Dermal Papilla Cells
αMSH may help regulate immune responses in hair follicles and its disruption could lead to hair loss.
research Erythrokeratodermia Variabilis
A 4-year-old girl was diagnosed with erythrokeratodermia variabilis after other treatments failed.
research Scaling dermatosis in three dogs associated with abnormal sebaceous gland differentiation
Three dogs with a rare skin condition improved with treatment.
research Atrichia with papular lesions in two Pakistani consanguineous families resulting from mutations in the human hairless gene
research Pimecrolimus increases the melanogenesis and migration of melanocytes in vitro
Pimecrolimus boosts melanin production and movement of skin pigment cells.
research Topical application of synthetic melanin promotes tissue repair
Synthetic melanin applied to skin speeds up wound healing.
research Abnormal differentiation of epidermis in transgenic mice constitutively expressing cyclooxygenase-2 in skin
Overexpression of COX-2 in mice skin causes abnormal skin and hair development.
research The skin of primates. XLI. The skin of the silver marmoset—Callithrix (= Mico) Argentata
The silver marmoset's skin is thin, lacks pigment cells, and has unique features like keratinized spines and specialized glands.
research Histopathology of Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy
The research found that a specific gene mutation causes fewer hair follicles and disrupted hair growth cycles, leading to thin and short hair in people with Hypotrichosis with Juvenile Macular Dystrophy.
research A cross-sectional study of clinical, dermoscopic, histopathological, and molecular patterns of scalp melanoma in patients with or without androgenetic alopecia
Scalp melanoma is more common and easier to diagnose early in people with androgenetic alopecia due to sun damage.
research Atrichia with papular lesions resulting from mutations in the rhesus macaque (Macaca mulatta) hairless gene
Mutations in the hairless gene cause hair loss and skin cysts in rhesus macaques.
research A rare hair loss in children: Monilethrix
Monilethrix is a rare, inherited condition causing fragile hair and hair loss, with no cure but some treatments may help.
research Melan-A Positive cells significantly expressed in immune-targeted follicles of Alopecia Areata
Melanocytes may trigger the immune response in alopecia areata, affecting hair regrowth.
research Signalling by senescent melanocytes hyperactivates hair growth
Senescent melanocytes can boost hair growth by activating hair stem cells.
research Elkonyxis associated with habit-tic deformity: Two case reports
Elkonyxis, a rare nail condition, improved when patients stopped their nail-picking habits.
research Keratin expression in the human hair follicle
research Monilethrix in monozygotic twins with very rare mutation in KRT 86 gene
Identical twins with a rare KRT 86 gene mutation both have the hair disorder monilethrix.
research A study on histopathological and dermoscopic correlations in pityriasis versicolor
Dermoscopic and histopathological features combined can help diagnose Pityriasis versicolor.
research Spiny keratoderma ‐ a demonstration of hair keratin and hair type keratinization
Spiny keratoderma may be ectopic hair formation on palms and soles.
research A gene for monilethrix is closely linked to the type II keratin gene cluster at 12q13
Monilethrix is linked to a gene cluster on chromosome 12.
