research Down-Stream molecular Responses to Volatile Signaling in Roots
Plant roots respond to fungus smells by possibly using certain proteins and a plant hormone to change root growth, but more research is needed.
research Histologic progression of acne inversa/hidradenitis suppurativa: Implications for future investigations and therapeutic intervention
Acne inversa is an epithelial-driven disease where inflammation is caused by cyst rupture, and treatments should focus on preventing tendril growth for better results.
research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research Particulate matter 2.5 damages skin cells by inducing oxidative stress, subcellular organelle dysfunction, and apoptosis
Tiny pollution particles called PM2.5 can harm skin cells by causing stress, damage to cell parts, and cell death.
research Human Hair Keratin-Associated Proteins
Hair keratin-associated proteins are essential for strong hair, with over 80 genes showing specific patterns and variations among people.
research Induction of transforming growth factor-beta 1 by androgen is mediated by reactive oxygen species in hair follicle dermal papilla cells
Androgens increase a growth factor in hair cells by creating reactive oxygen species, and antioxidants might help treat hair loss.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein
The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.
research Hirsutism: Diagnosis and Treatment
The document concludes that hirsutism can be managed with various treatments tailored to the individual, potentially improving quality of life.
research Eruptive vellus hair cyst: An uncommon and underdiagnosed entity
Eruptive vellus hair cysts are rare and often misdiagnosed, requiring biopsy for accurate diagnosis.
research Modulation of genomic and postgenomic alterations in noncancer diseases and critical periods of life
N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) can prevent DNA damage and protect cells from harm.
research A review of genotrichoses and hair pathology associated with inherited skin diseases
Next-generation sequencing greatly improves understanding and treatment of genetic hair disorders.
research A decade of neglecting sublingual mass: A case report of epidermoid cyst
A man had a large, rare cyst in his mouth removed after 10 years, which fixed his swallowing and breathing problems.
research Hair Follicle–Derived Blood Vessels Vascularize Tumors in Skin and Are Inhibited by Doxorubicin
Doxorubicin can block blood vessels from hair follicles, reducing skin tumor growth.
research Forkhead/winged-helix transcription factor whn regulates hair keratin gene expression: Molecular analysis of theNude skin phenotype
Whn is essential for hair growth, and its malfunction causes hair loss.
research Disruption of tubular Flcn expression as a mouse model for renal tumor induction
Disrupting the Flcn gene in mice causes early kidney cysts and tumors, which can be treated with rapamycin.
research A novel mutation in Hr causes abnormal hair follicle morphogenesis in hairpoor mouse, an animal model for Marie Unna Hereditary Hypotrichosis
A new mutation in the Hr gene causes hair loss in mice, similar to a human hair disorder.
research Immunohistochemical Study of Calretinin in Normal Skin and Cutaneous Adnexal Proliferations
Calretinin can help identify certain skin structures and tumors.
research The impact of alopecia areata on patients' daily lives: A study using social media in France
Alopecia areata significantly affects patients' lives, causing physical, psychological, social, and financial challenges.
research Congenital atrichia with papular lesions
Congenital atrichia with papular lesions causes permanent hair loss and skin bumps from birth.
research Infections, Infestations and Neoplasms of the Scalp
The chapter explains common scalp conditions, including infections, infestations, and tumors.
research Scalp Dermatology for the Hair Restoration Surgeon: Scalp Lesions
The document lists common and scalp-specific lesions, emphasizing the need for hair restoration surgeons to recognize these and refer patients to a dermatologist if necessary.
research Monilethrix: A rare hereditary condition
Monilethrix is a rare genetic hair disorder that's hard to treat.
research Activation of Nrf2 in keratinocytes causes chloracne (MADISH)‐like skin disease in mice

research Ornithine Decarboxylase Expression Leads to Translocation and Activation of Protein Kinase CK2 in Vivo
High ornithine decarboxylase levels may lead to hair loss and cancer by increasing CK2 activity in the nucleus.
research Aberrant Wnt Signaling Induces Comedo-Like Changes in the Murine Upper Hair Follicle
Overactive Wnt signaling in mouse skin stem cells causes acne-like cysts and shrinking oil glands, which some treatments can partially fix.
research Molecular evolution of the keratin associated protein gene family in mammals, role in the evolution of mammalian hair
KRTAP genes evolved early in mammals, leading to diverse hair traits.
