Tet2 and Tet3 enzymes are essential for controlling hair growth by affecting DNA demethylation and gene expression in mice.
research 731 Generation of a laser capture microdissection and RNAseq-based human anagen hair follicle transcriptome atlas
Scientists created a detailed map of gene activity in different parts of human hair follicles.
research Decision letter: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairless mammals evolved quickly in both gene and non-gene areas related to skin and hair.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research 603 Pathological modeling of epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) using induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSC)
Scientists used stem cells to create a model of the skin disease Epidermolysis Bullosa simplex, which helped them understand its molecular mechanisms and could aid in finding treatments.
research 1465 Optimization/characterization of a Focal Dermal Hypoplasia mouse model to test potential treatments
Li2CO3 improved skin disease in a mouse model of Focal Dermal Hypoplasia without toxicity.
research 474 Stabilizing mutations of KLHL24 ubiquitin ligase cause loss of keratin 14 and human skin fragility
Certain mutations in the KLHL24 gene cause a skin disorder by breaking down an important skin protein.
research 858 IPSC derived keratinocyte differentiation from reprogrammed blood cells
Blood cells turned into stem cells can become skin cells similar to normal ones, potentially helping in skin therapies.
research In vitro mesenchymal–epithelial interaction facilitates de novo hair follicle formation
Adult skin cells can be used to create new hair in a lab.
research Clinical Snippets
New findings suggest potential treatments for melanoma, hyperpigmentation, hair defects, and multiple sclerosis, and show skin microbiome changes don't cause atopic dermatitis.
research Differential expression of type I IRS keratin genes in three breeds of sheep
Sheep breeds show different keratin gene expression in the groin, linked to hair follicle density.
research The formulation and in‐vitro evaluation of WS Biotin, a novel encapsulated form of D‐Biotin with improved water solubility for hair and skin treatment applications
WS Biotin, a new form of D-Biotin, improves water solubility and shows potential for hair and skin care without being toxic at low levels.
research Significance of stress keratin expression in normal and diseased epithelia
Stress keratins are expressed less in diseased skin and are linked to differentiation, inflammation, and immunity.
research Keratin 15 Promoter Targets Putative Epithelial Stem Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge
The K15 promoter effectively targets stem cells in the hair follicle bulge.
research Dermatopathia Pigmentosa Reticularis: Report of a New Cases and Literature Review
DPR can show different hair characteristics, as seen in two brothers with normal hair.
research Molecular stratification of the human fetal vaginal epithelium by spatial transcriptome analysis
The study identifies four distinct zones in the fetal vaginal epithelium, enhancing understanding for potential applications in women's health.
research Homeostatic maintenance of the murine corneal epithelium in pathophysiological contexts
Corneal health relies on cell migration and cooperation with the lacrimal gland, not Bmi1+ cells, and Eda gene mutations can cause dry eye disease.
research Identification of the Key Genes Associated with Different Hair Types in the Inner Mongolia Cashmere Goat
Key genes, including KRT39 and KRT74, influence hair length in Inner Mongolia cashmere goats.
research Analysis of LncRNA and mRNA Expression Profiles in Skin Tissues of Super Merino Sheep and Small-Tailed Han Sheep
Researchers found genes in sheep that may affect hair growth and wool quality.
research Editor's evaluation: Complementary evolution of coding and noncoding sequence underlies mammalian hairlessness
Hairlessness in mammals is due to complex genetic changes in both genes and regulatory regions.
research Keratin K15 as a Biomarker of Epidermal Stem Cells
Keratin 15 is not a reliable sole marker for identifying epidermal stem cells because it's found in various cell types.
