research Single-cell transcriptomics defines keratinocyte differentiation in avian scutate scales
The research identified two types of keratinocytes in chicken scales: one for hard scales and another for soft skin, with similarities to human skin differentiation.
research Low serum testosterone is associated with an increased risk of first-time renal calculi in men without testosterone replacement therapy
Low testosterone increases kidney stone risk in men not on testosterone therapy.
research γδ17 T cell-stromal networks modulate matrix composition and vascularity in foreign body response
γδ T cells help control tissue scarring and blood vessel growth in response to foreign objects.
research The Impact of Perceived Stress, Happiness, and Religiosity on Political Orientation
Intrinsic religiosity is linked to a conservative political orientation.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Dyslipidemia, hormonal profiles, and sleep characteristics in men with androgenetic alopecia: an analysis based on data from the EPISONO study
Men with androgenetic alopecia may have higher triglycerides, suggesting a link to lipid metabolism.
research Hairline as a Neurosurgical Landmark
The hairline can reliably guide neurosurgical planning.
research Association Between Urolithiasis and Hidradenitis Suppurativa: A Retrospective Cohort Study
People with hidradenitis suppurativa have a higher risk of kidney stones.
research The Association Between 5α-Reductase Inhibitors and the Presence of Subsequent Dry Eye Disease in Androgenetic Alopecia: A TriNetX Database Study
Using 5α-reductase inhibitors for hair loss may increase the risk of dry eye disease.
research The frequency of polycystic ovary syndrome in women with prediabetes compared with normoglycemic women
Women with prediabetes may have a higher risk of PCOS-like changes, especially if they have impaired glucose tolerance.
research Novel Tissue Mechanics-Guided Cellular Flows Enable the Evolution of Feather Follicles
Cellular flows and tissue mechanics guide feather follicle formation in birds.
research AutoMIR: Effective Zero-Shot Medical Information Retrieval without Relevance Labels
SL-HyDE improves medical information retrieval accuracy without needing labeled data.
research Rhamnose-mediated modulation of hair follicle growth: insights from chemical genomics
Rhamnose may help hair growth and pigmentation, making it a potential treatment for hair loss.
research Molecular heterogeneity of quiescent melanocyte stem cells revealed by single-cell RNA-sequencing
Different types of inactive melanocyte stem cells exist with unique characteristics and potential to develop into other cells.
research Tfap2b specifies an embryonic melanocyte stem cell that retains adult multi-fate potential
The gene Tfap2b is essential for creating a type of stem cell in zebrafish that can become different pigment cells.
research Pioneer factors govern super-enhancer dynamics in stem cell plasticity and lineage choice
Super-enhancers controlled by pioneer factors like SOX9 are crucial for stem cell adaptability and identity.
research Effects of Nitric Oxide on Skin Burn Wound Healing
Nitric oxide gel helps heal skin burns faster by improving skin growth, hair regrowth, and blood vessel formation.
research Planar cell polarity-dependent and independent functions in the emergence of tissue-scale hair follicle patterns
Mice can correct hair follicle orientation without certain genes, but proper overall alignment needs those genes.
research Symmetry breaking of tissue mechanics in wound induced hair follicle regeneration of laboratory and spiny mice
Tissue stiffness affects hair follicle regeneration, and Twist1 is a key regulator.
research Defining the identity of mouse embryonic dermal fibroblasts
Researchers identified specific genes that are important for mouse skin cell development and healing.
research The degree of premature hair graying as an independent risk marker for coronary artery disease: a predictor of biological age rather than chronological age
Premature hair graying may be a sign of increased risk for heart disease, indicating biological age is more important than actual age.
research Hair of the Dog: Identification of a Cis-Regulatory Module Predicted to Influence Canine Coat Composition
Researchers found a genetic region that influences the number of coat layers in dogs.
research Complex genetic dependencies among growth and neurological phenotypes in healthy children: Towards deciphering developmental mechanisms
Genetic factors influence growth and brain development in children.
research DNA phenotyping: current application in forensic science
DNA phenotyping helps predict physical traits from DNA with varying accuracy and requires careful ethical and legal handling.
research Hospital-based prevalence of polycystic ovarian syndrome among Omani women
About 7% of Omani women visiting a gynecology clinic had polycystic ovarian syndrome, similar to rates in other countries.
research Motoneuron-Specific PTEN Deletion in Mice Induces Neuronal Hypertrophy and Also Regeneration after Facial Nerve Injury
Deleting the PTEN gene in mice causes nerve cells to grow larger and heal better after injury, but may cause overgrowth and hair loss in older mice.
research Mechanical forces across compartments coordinate cell shape and fate transitions to generate tissue architecture
Mechanical forces are crucial for shaping cells and forming tissues during development.
