FTase and GGTase-I are essential for skin keratinocyte health.
research The biphasic regulatory effect of diphencyprone on mouse hair growth and its relation to protein kinase C isoforms
Diphencyprone initially increases mouse hair growth, then slows it, possibly due to changes in specific protein levels.
research Topical Application of Thymidine Dinucleotide to Newborn Mice Reduces and Delays Development of UV-Induced Melanomas
Putting thymidine dinucleotide on newborn mice's skin can delay and reduce skin cancer.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
