research Conditional Disruption of Hedgehog Signaling Pathway Defines its Critical Role in Hair Development and Regeneration
The hedgehog signaling pathway is crucial for hair growth but not for the initial creation of hair follicles.
research Cell-Type-Specific Chromatin States Differentially Prime Squamous Cell Carcinoma Tumor-Initiating Cells for Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition
Different types of skin cells have unique genetic markers that affect how likely they are to spread cancer.
research Vitamin D and the skin: Physiology and pathophysiology
Vitamin D and its receptor regulate skin functions like cell growth, immunity, hair cycle, and tumor prevention.
research Epithelial Integrity Is Maintained by a Matriptase-Dependent Proteolytic Pathway
Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
research Experimental Induction of Alopecia Areata-Like Hair Loss in C3H/HeJ Mice Using Full-Thickness Skin Grafts
Skin grafts on mice can cause an immune response leading to hair loss, useful for studying human hair loss conditions.
research Physiological and retinoid-induced proliferations of epidermis basal keratinocytes are differently controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research Stretching the limits: from homeostasis to stem cell plasticity in wound healing and cancer
Stem cell plasticity is crucial for wound healing but can also contribute to cancer development.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Acne: Hormonal concepts and therapy
Hormones, especially androgens, play a big role in acne, but most acne sufferers don't have a hormone disorder. Hormonal treatments, including birth control pills, can be very effective for women whose acne doesn't improve with regular treatments.
research Biology of the wool follicle: an excursion into a unique tissue interaction system waiting to be re‐discovered
The article concludes that the wool follicle is a valuable model for studying tissue interactions and has potential for genetic improvements in wool production.
research TNF superfamily in skin appendage development
TNF family proteins are crucial for the development of skin features like hair, teeth, and mammary glands.
research Trichoblastic Carcinoma (“Malignant Trichoblastoma”) with Lymphatic and Hematogenous Metastases
Long-standing benign tumors can become cancerous, especially in people with weakened immune systems.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Drug discovery for alopecia: gone today, hair tomorrow
Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.
research Genetic interplays between Msx2 and Foxn1 are required for Notch1 expression and hair shaft differentiation
Msx2 and Foxn1 are both crucial for hair growth and health.
research Targeting Superficial or Nodular Basal Cell Carcinoma with Topically Formulated Small Molecule Inhibitor of Smoothened
The topical inhibitor CUR61414 was not effective in treating basal cell carcinoma in human trials.
research Secreted subtilisin Sub3 from Microsporum canis is required for adherence to but not for invasion of the epidermis
Sub3 is essential for fungus adherence but not for skin invasion.
research Cyclosporin A-induced hair growth in mice is associated with inhibition of calcineurin-dependent activation of NFAT in follicular keratinocytes
Cyclosporin A helps mice grow hair by blocking a specific protein activity in skin cells.
research New insights into the functions of Cox-2 in skin and esophageal malignancies
Cox-2 significantly contributes to the development and progression of skin and esophageal cancers.
research Hair-Cycle-Dependent Expression of Parathyroid Hormone-Related Protein and its Type I Receptor: Evidence for Regulation at the Anagen to Catagen Transition
Parathyroid hormone-related protein helps control hair growth phases in mice.
research High proliferation and delamination during skin epidermal stratification
High proliferation and cell delamination drive early skin development, while later stages may not rely on cell division orientation.
research Exploring the “Thyroid–Skin Connection”: Concepts, Questions, and Clinical Relevance
Thyroid function affects skin health, with a complex interaction between the two.
research Inherited ichthyosis: Syndromic forms
Understanding the genetics of rare inherited ichthyosis syndromes is key for better treatments and genetic counseling.
research Overexpression of Bcl-2 Protects from Ultraviolet B-Induced Apoptosis but Promotes Hair Follicle Regression and Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Bcl-2 overexpression protects against UVB damage but worsens hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Hair Growth Defects in Insig-Deficient Mice Caused by Cholesterol Precursor Accumulation and Reversed by Simvastatin
Mice lacking Insig proteins had hair growth problems due to cholesterol buildup, but this was fixed by the drug simvastatin.
research Thyroid hormone action on skin
Thyroid hormone affects skin health, with too little causing rough, pale skin and too much leading to smooth, thin skin, and may also impact wound healing and skin conditions.
research Hair Shaft Abnormalities – Clues to Diagnosis and Treatment
Hair problems can be caused by genetics or the environment, and treatment should focus on the cause and reducing hair damage.
research The mineralocorticoid receptor as a novel player in skin biology: beyond the renal horizon?
The mineralocorticoid receptor may play a role in skin and hair health and could be a new target for treating related disorders.
research TCL1 transgenic mouse model as a tool for the study of therapeutic targets and microenvironment in human B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukemia
The TCL1 transgenic mouse model is useful for understanding human B-cell leukemia and testing new treatments.
