900-930 / 1000+ results research Small RNAs Loom Large During Reprogramming
MicroRNAs can reprogram cells into stem cells faster and more efficiently than traditional methods.
research Dermal EZH2 simultaneously orchestrates dermal differentiation and epidermal proliferation during murine skin development
Dermal EZH2 controls skin cell growth and differentiation in mice.
research Update on Melasma—Part I: Pathogenesis
Melasma's causes include genetics, sun exposure, hormones, and oxidative stress, and understanding these can help create better treatments.
research Retinoic Acid and Mouse Skin Morphogenesis. II. Role of Epidermal Competence in Hair Glandular Metaplasia
Retinoic acid causes gland formation instead of hair in mouse skin by altering epidermal and dermal interactions.
research Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans. What Syndrome Is This?
Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans is a rare genetic disorder causing skin and hair issues, often inherited through the X chromosome.
research A partially automated method for DNA extraction from marmoset hair follicles to avoid blood chimerism
The method effectively extracts high-quality DNA from marmoset hair, avoiding blood chimerism.
research A role of melatonin in neuroectodermal‐mesodermal interactions: the hair follicle synthesizes melatonin and expresses functional melatonin receptors
Hair follicles produce and respond to melatonin, affecting hair growth and sensitivity to estrogen.
research Cell death in skin function, inflammation, and disease
Different types of cell death affect skin health and inflammation, and understanding them could improve treatments for skin diseases.
research New case of trichorinophalangeal syndrome-like phenotype with a de novo t(2;8)(p16.1;q23.3) translocation which does not disrupt the TRPS1 gene
A woman with a unique syndrome similar to TRPS has a genetic change near the TRPS1 gene, affecting its regulation.
research Asebia-2J (Scd1ab2J): A New Allele and a Model for Scarring Alopecia
The absence of functional sebaceous glands causes hair follicle destruction and scarring alopecia.
research Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis
Toxic epidermal necrolysis is a severe skin condition often caused by drugs, with complex treatment and a high risk of death, but survivors usually heal without scars.
research 545 Skin Organoids derived from NCSTN mutated patient-induced pluripotent stem cells recapitulate Hidradenitis Suppurativa pathogenic hallmarks
Skin organoids with NCSTN mutation show changes in hair follicle development and higher inflammation, key features of Hidradenitis Suppurativa.
research The Role of ATP-dependent Chromatin Remodeling in the Control of Epidermal Differentiation and Skin Stem Cell Activity
ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is crucial for skin development and stem cell function.
research 0846 Wnt signaling drives hair follicle regeneration in wounds by attenuating mechanotransduction in the epidermis
Wnt signaling helps regenerate hair follicles in wounds by reducing skin cell sensitivity to mechanical stress.
research 5 alpha-reductase-2 gene mutations in the Dominican Republic.
Different mutations in the 5 alpha-reductase-2 gene were found in affected individuals in the Dominican Republic, suggesting no common ancestry.
research Fail-tests of DNA methylation clocks, and development of a noise barometer for measuring epigenetic pressure of aging and disease
Elastic Net DNA methylation clocks are inaccurate for predicting age and health status; a "noise barometer" may better indicate aging and disease.
research Identification of Differentially Expressed Genes During a Wool Follicle Growth Cycle Induced by Prolactin
Certain genes are linked to wool follicle structure and function, but not hair cycle regulation.
research Mutations in the Keratin 85 (KRT85/hHb5) Gene Underlie Pure Hair and Nail Ectodermal Dysplasia
Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.
research LB1028 Spontaneous keloid eruption in a patient on dialysis
Spontaneous keloids may be linked to nephrogenic systemic fibrosis in dialysis patients.
research Porokeratotic eccrine ostial and dermal duct nevus and porokeratotic eccrine and hair follicle nevus: Is nomenclature “porokeratotic adnexal ostial nevus” more appropriate?
The term "Porokeratotic Adnexal Ostial Nevus" is suggested as a more appropriate name.
research [Nevoid bundle hairs].
Naevoid bundle hair is an unusual hair growth pattern where multiple hairs fuse together.
research Pathological Mechanisms Involved in Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex: Current Knowledge and Therapeutic Perspectives
Promising treatments for EBS include anti-inflammatory drugs, antibiotics, creams, mTOR inhibitors, and gene editing, but more trials are needed.
research Non-invasive monitoring of low molecular weight biomarkers relevant to skin inflammation and cancer
Non-invasive methods can effectively monitor skin inflammation and cancer biomarkers.
