Mouse nails are similar to human nails, making them useful for studying nail diseases.
research Concise Review: Translating Regenerative Biology into Clinically Relevant Therapies: Are We on the Right Path?
We need to understand more about regeneration to improve human tissue healing.
research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine
A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
research Cutaneous extramedullary haematopoiesis: Implications in human disease and treatment
Skin can produce blood cells, often due to disease, which might lead to new treatments for skin and blood conditions.
research An ERK-dependent molecular switch antagonizes fibrosis and promotes regeneration in spiny mice ( Acomys )
High levels of ERK activity are key for tissue regeneration in spiny mice, and activating ERK can potentially redirect scar-forming healing towards regenerative healing in mammals.
research Signal Peptide-CUB-EGF-like Domain-Containing Protein 3 (SCUBE3): From Molecule to Therapy
SCUBE3 is a potential target for cancer and alopecia treatment but is challenging to target due to its varied roles.
research Strain and Strain Recovery of Human Hair from the Nano- to the Macroscale
Human hair can almost fully recover its structure within about 1,000 minutes after being stretched.
research A Rare Case of Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans Affecting a Female Child
A girl with a rare skin condition called Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans showed no significant improvement with treatment.
research Alopecia Areata: an Update on Etiopathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Management
JAK inhibitors show promise for treating alopecia areata, but more research is needed.
research Gene Array Profiling and Immunomodulation Studies Define a Cell-Mediated Immune Response Underlying the Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata in a Mouse Model and Humans
Alopecia areata is caused by an immune response, and targeting immune cells might help treat it.
research Immunological challenges associated with artificial skin grafts: available solutions and stem cells in future design of synthetic skin
Artificial skin grafts face immune rejection, but stem cells may improve future designs.
research Postzygotic Mutations in Beta-Actin Are Associated with Becker’s Nevus and Becker’s Nevus Syndrome
Mutations in the ACTB gene cause Becker’s nevi and may lead to muscle issues in Becker’s nevus syndrome.
research High-throughput T cell receptor sequencing identifies clonally expanded CD8+ T cell populations in alopecia areata
CD8+ T cells are involved in alopecia areata and may cause disease relapse.
research Pathomechanisms of immune-mediated alopecia
The study concluded that immune cells attacking hair follicles cause hair loss in alopecia, with genetics and environment also playing a role, and highlighted the potential of certain treatments.
research Female pattern alopecia: current perspectives
Female pattern hair loss is caused by multiple factors and while treatments like topical minoxidil, hormone therapy, and low-level light therapy can help, none can fully cure it.
research Genetic Basis of Alopecia Areata
More research is needed to understand the genetic causes of Alopecia areata to develop better treatments.
research Intracrine and Myotrophic Roles of 5α-Reductase and Androgens
Muscles can make their own androgens, which may help muscle growth.
research Superiority of dutasteride over finasteride in hair regrowth and reversal of miniaturization in men with androgenetic alopecia: A randomized controlled open-label, evaluator-blinded study
Dutasteride is more effective than finasteride at increasing hair count and reversing hair thinning in men with hair loss, but both have similar side effects.
research Alopecia Areata: An Autoimmune Disease of Multiple Players
Alopecia areata is an incurable autoimmune condition causing hair loss, with research aiming for better treatments.
research The Genetic Architecture of Alopecia Areata
Genetic discoveries are leading to new treatments for alopecia areata.
