research Annotated Patent Selections
The document highlights various patents for new compounds with potential treatments for multiple diseases, including cancer, hormonal disorders, and diabetes.
research Wnt/β‐catenin pathway in tissue injury: roles in pathology and therapeutic opportunities for regeneration
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway helps tissue regeneration but can also cause fibrosis, and drugs that inhibit this pathway may aid in healing skin and heart tissues.
research New approach to the understanding of keloid: psychoneuroimmune–endocrine aspects
Keloids may be influenced by stress and psychological factors.
research Ichthyosis, Follicular Atrophoderma, and Hypotrichosis Caused by Mutations in ST14 Is Associated with Impaired Profilaggrin Processing
Mutations in the ST14 gene cause skin and hair issues by disrupting important protein processing.
research Laminin 332 Is Indispensable for Homeostatic Epidermal Differentiation Programs
Laminin 332 is essential for normal skin cell behavior and structure.
research Cellular and molecular mechanisms of repair in acute and chronic wound healing
Acute wounds heal well, but chronic wounds struggle due to ongoing inflammation and poor tissue repair.
research Hidradenitis suppurativa: A folliculotropic disease of innate immune barrier dysfunction?
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a skin disease caused by the breakdown of the skin's natural immune barriers, especially around hair follicles.
research Reduced SMAD2/3 activation independently predicts increased depth of human cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
Lower SMAD2/3 activation predicts more severe skin cancer.
research Type II Keratins Are Phosphorylated on a Unique Motif during Stress and Mitosis in Tissues and Cultured Cells
Type II keratins are uniquely phosphorylated during stress and mitosis, affecting their structure and function.
research A folliculocentric perspective of dandruff pathogenesis: Could a troublesome condition be caused by changes to a natural secretory mechanism?
Dandruff might be caused by changes in how hair follicles naturally release oils and an immune response to this imbalance.
research A Holistic Approach to Unravel Keloid Pathogenesis and Optimize Therapeutic Outcomes
A holistic approach combining lifestyle changes, stress management, exercise, and herbal medicine can effectively treat and prevent keloids.
research Mineralocorticoid Receptor Antagonists—A New Sprinkle of Salt and Youth
MR antagonists may improve skin health and wound healing, especially in aging.
research Vitamin D: More Than a “Bone-a-Fide” Hormone
Vitamin D is important for bones, hair, blood pressure, and breast development.
research Directed Expression of a Chimeric Type II Keratin Partially Rescues Keratin 5-null Mice
A chimeric keratin partially improved skin structure in mice lacking keratin 5, but didn't fully restore normal skin.
research Recent Advances in the Use of Cubosomes as Drug Carriers with Special Emphasis on Topical Applications
Cubosomes improve drug delivery for skin and eye diseases by enhancing adhesion, retention, and release.
research Advances in Cell-Mediated Drug Delivery for Dermatologic Diseases: Mechanisms and Current Applications
Cell-mediated drug delivery systems improve skin disease treatment by using living cells for precise, prolonged, and less toxic therapy.
research Repurposing Metformin for Dermatological Use: Mechanisms, Evidence, and Clinical Perspectives
Metformin shows promise for treating skin conditions, but more research is needed.
research A Kaleidoscope of Keratin Gene Expression and the Mosaic of Its Regulatory Mechanisms
Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.
research Saponins of Paris polyphylla for the Improvement of Acne: Anti-Inflammatory, Antibacterial, Antioxidant and Immunomodulatory Effects
Paris polyphylla saponins may effectively treat acne due to their antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
research Cell death by cornification
Cornification is how skin cells die to form the protective outer layer of skin, hair, and nails.
research Understanding, recognizing, and managing toxicities of targeted anticancer therapies
Targeted anticancer therapies can cause severe side effects similar to traditional chemotherapy, but with different types.
research mTORC1 activity negatively regulates human hair follicle growth and pigmentation
High mTORC1 activity slows hair growth and causes it to lose color.
research Glycerol Regulates Stratum Corneum Hydration in Sebaceous Gland Deficient (Asebia) Mice
Glycerol is essential for skin hydration in mice without sebaceous glands.
research Transcriptome Profiling and Differential Gene Expression in Canine Microdissected Anagen and Telogen Hair Follicles and Interfollicular Epidermis
