30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Sequence and Expression of Murine Type I Hair Keratins mHa2 and mHa3
mHa2 and mHa3 keratins have different structures and roles in mouse hair and tongue tissues.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant in MHC region impacts expressions of genes contributing to hair keratinization and is involved in hair loss
A gene variant increases the risk of a type of hair loss by affecting hair protein production.
research MHC Class I-Like MILL Molecules Are β2-Microglobulin-Associated, GPI-Anchored Glycoproteins That Do Not Require TAP for Cell Surface Expression
MILL molecules are unique immune proteins in mice that don't need TAP to appear on cell surfaces.
research Diphencyprone and topical tacrolimus as two topical immunotherapeutic modalities. Are they effective in the treatment of alopecia areata among Egyptian patients? A study using CD4, CD8 and MHC II as markers
Diphencyprone is effective for treating patchy hair loss in alopecia areata, but tacrolimus is not.
research T-cell “induced-self” MHC class I/peptide complexes may enable “de novo” tolerance induction to neo-antigens occurring outside of the thymus
Hair follicles may help teach the immune system to tolerate new self-antigens, but this can sometimes cause hair loss.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
research A Subset of TREM2+ Dermal Macrophages Secretes Oncostatin M to Maintain Hair Follicle Stem Cell Quiescence and Inhibit Hair Growth
Certain immune cells in the skin release a protein that stops hair growth by keeping hair stem cells inactive.

Monopolar radiofrequency effectively reduces facial wrinkles with minimal side effects.
research Studies of the modulation of MHC antigen and cell adhesion molecule expression on human dermal papilla cells
Different substances affect hair and skin cell growth in various ways, with some promoting and others inhibiting cell proliferation.
research Induction of Hair Growth by Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1 in 1,763 MHz Radiofrequency-Irradiated Hair Follicle Cells
Radiofrequency exposure can stimulate hair growth by increasing IGF-1 in hair follicle cells.
research Validation of the follicular and ovarian thresholds by an 18-MHz ultrasound imaging in polycystic ovary syndrome: a pilot cutoff for North African patients
New ultrasound criteria for diagnosing PCOS in North African patients were successfully established.
research Down-RANKing the Threat of HSV-1: RANKL Upregulates MHC-Class-I-Restricted Anti-Viral Immunity in Herpes Simplex Virus Infection
RANKL improves the immune response against herpes simplex virus by enhancing T cell activation and could help develop better treatments or vaccines.

Topical olive oil protects mice skin from harmful electromagnetic radiation.
research Sex Differences in Reaction to Chronic Unpredictable Stress in the House Mouse (Mus m. musculus) of Wild Origin
Male and female mice handle stress differently.
research Maintenance of Hair Follicle Immune Privilege Is Linked to Prevention of NK Cell Attack
Hair follicles prevent NK cell attacks to avoid hair loss.
research Lichen planopilaris is characterized by immune privilege collapse of the hair follicle's epithelial stem cell niche
Lichen planopilaris may be an autoimmune disease causing hair loss due to immune system issues in hair follicles.
research Quiescent Tissue Stem Cells Evade Immune Surveillance
