research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance and Hypersensitivity
The conclusion is that genetic changes in the glucocorticoid receptor can lead to conditions affecting stress response, immunity, and metabolism, requiring personalized treatment.
research Hair Loss in Autoimmune Cutaneous Bullous Disorders
Hair loss in autoimmune blistering skin diseases varies and may regrow with disease control.
research 259 Immunohistochemical insight into the association between the collapse of immune privilege in the sweat gland and syringotropic immune cell infiltrates in collagen diseases
The study found that sweat glands normally suppress immune responses, but this is disrupted in certain skin diseases, possibly contributing to their development.
research Genome-wide association study in frontal fibrosing alopecia identifies four susceptibility loci including HLA-B*07:02
Frontal fibrosing alopecia is linked to four genetic areas, especially the HLA-B*07:02 allele.
research Identification of drug-specific public TCR driving severe cutaneous adverse reactions
Researchers found a specific immune receptor in patients that causes severe skin reactions to a drug.
research Spatiotemporal Expression, Distribution, and Processing of POMC and POMC-derived Peptides in Murine Skin
POMC-derived peptides are important for skin functions like immune response and stress management.
research Comparative Proteomic Analysis in Scar-Free Skin Regeneration in Acomys cahirinus and Scarring Mus musculus
The African spiny mouse heals skin without scarring due to different protein activity compared to the common house mouse, which heals with scarring.
research 1318 Both lesional and non-lesional skin from acne patients shows robust IL-17-skewing and upregulation of antimicrobial peptides
Acne patients' skin, both with and without lesions, shows a strong immune response and higher antimicrobial activity.
research 277 An open label pilot clinical trial of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib for alopecia areata
Tofacitinib, a JAK inhibitor, improved hair regrowth in most patients with severe alopecia areata and had minimal side effects.
research A molecular wound response program associated with regeneration initiation in planarians
Planarian regeneration begins with a specific gene activation caused by injury, essential for healing and tissue regrowth.
research The Circadian Clock in Skin
The skin's internal clock affects healing, cancer risk, aging, immunity, and hair growth, and disruptions can harm skin health.
research Age-associated inflammation connects RAS-induced senescence to stem cell dysfunction and epidermal malignancy
Older skin has higher cancer risk due to inflammation and stem cell issues.
research PRF Lysates Modulate Chemokine Expression in Oral Squamous Carcinoma and Healthy Epithelial Cells
PRF lysates reduce inflammation in cancer cells and boost immune response in healthy oral cells.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Interaction between stem cell factor and endothelin-1: effects on melanogenesis in human skin xenografts
SCF and ET-1 together significantly increase skin pigmentation and melanin production.
research Genome-wide association study of skin complex diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research Cutaneous gene therapy
Cutaneous gene therapy could become a viable treatment for skin and hair disorders with improved vector development and gene expression control.
research URB expression in human dermal papilla cells
The gene URB is more active in human hair growth cells and responds to a hair-related hormone.
research Engineering a 3D wounded skin equivalent to study early inflammatory and regenerative responses in vitro
A 3D skin model helps study wound healing better than traditional methods.
research Polyamine Oxidase Expression Is Downregulated by 17β-Estradiol via Estrogen Receptor 2 in Human MCF-7 Breast Cancer Cells
17β-estradiol lowers polyamine oxidase levels in breast cancer cells through estrogen receptor 2.
research 331 An open label clinical trial of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib for alopecia areata
Tofacitinib helped over half of the patients with severe hair loss regrow at least 50% of their hair.
research 1379 Cell of origin contributes to the melanoma diversity
Different types of stem cells in the skin contribute to the variety of melanoma forms.
research Transcriptional Profiling in Rat Hair Follicles following Simulated Blast Insult: A New Diagnostic Tool for Traumatic Brain Injury
Hair follicles can help diagnose traumatic brain injury quickly and non-invasively.
research Multi-omics analysis of functional substances and expression verification in cashmere fineness
The study concluded that the arachidonic acid pathway and the protein KRT79 play a role in determining the fineness of cashmere.
research Safety and efficacy of the JAK inhibitor tofacitinib citrate in patients with alopecia areata
Tofacitinib is safe and effective for severe alopecia areata, but hair loss may return 2 months after stopping treatment.
research Vitamin D Receptor: New Assignments for an Already Busy Receptor
The vitamin D receptor is involved in multiple body functions beyond calcium regulation, including immune response and rapid reactions not related to gene activity.
