research Types I and II Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratins are crucial for cell structure, growth, and disease risk.
research Root hair growth in Arabidopsis thaliana is directed by calcium and an endogenous polarity
Calcium affects where root hairs grow, but other unknown factors determine their growth direction.
research Adenomatous Polyposis Coli (APC) Is Required for Normal Development of Skin and Thymus
The Apc gene is crucial for normal skin and thymus development.
research Dermatological adverse events with taxane chemotherapy
Taxane chemotherapy can cause skin, hair, and nail side effects, which are often under-reported and can affect patient quality of life.
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 Beyond Expectations
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research Weekly docetaxel in minimally pretreated cancer patients: A dose-escalation study focused on feasibility and cumulative toxicity of long-term administration
Giving docetaxel weekly at 40 mg/m² is manageable and has low toxicity for cancer patients.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research Minoxidil is a potential neuroprotective drug for paclitaxel-induced peripheral neuropathy
Minoxidil may protect nerves and improve hair quality during paclitaxel treatment.
research KERATINS AND SKIN DISORDERS
Changes in keratin affect skin health and can lead to skin disorders like blistering diseases and psoriasis.
research Hair keratin film as a substitute device for human hair
Keratin film can effectively replace human hair for testing hair damage.
research LB1606 Retainability of pluripotency and viability of multilineage-differentiating stress enduring (Muse) cells after repeated cryopreservation.
Muse cells keep their special features and can become different cell types even after being frozen and thawed three times.
research The relationship between keratin 18 and epithelial-derived tumors: as a diagnostic marker, prognostic marker, and its role in tumorigenesis
Keratin 18 helps diagnose and predict cancer progression and affects cancer growth and spread.
research The Role of Vimentin in Tissue Repair and Cell Growth
Vimentin is crucial for wound healing, cell growth, and managing immune responses.
research KIF18B is a cell-type specific regulator of spindle orientation in the epidermis
KIF18B is important for correctly positioning cell division machinery in skin cells, affecting hair follicle development.
research Periungual lesions secondary to chemotherapy with docetaxel
Chemotherapy with docetaxel can cause painful nail and skin side effects that may lead to stopping treatment.
research LB1602 Skin cancer in skin of color transplant patients
Non-white organ transplant patients have worse skin cancer outcomes due to later diagnosis and treatment.
research LB1603 Centrosomes are required for the normal development of the skin epithelium
Centrosomes are essential for healthy skin and hair growth, and their role is different from that of cilia.
research LB1601 Dermatomyositis-related panniculitis of the neck
A woman with dermatomyositis improved after treatment for neck panniculitis, suggesting similar treatment for related conditions.
research LB1604 The role of polyunsaturated fatty acids on hair growth
Polyunsaturated fatty acids, like arachidonic acid and eicosapentaenoic acid, can promote hair growth and may help treat hair loss.
research LB1605 3D imaging of cleared ex vivo normal human skin, skin appendages and psoriasiform skin lesion using light-sheet microscopy
The conclusion is that using light-sheet fluorescence microscopy with a special solution can effectively create detailed 3D images of human skin for dermatological research.
research Watching hair grow
Hair grows when stem cell offspring in the follicle base proliferate, influenced by the dermal papilla.
research Stem and cancer cells Wnt long telomeres
A pathway helps maintain long telomeres in both stem and cancer cells.
research BRCA2 in abscission
The tumor suppressor BRCA2 helps in cell division by bringing key proteins to the area where cells split.
research Advanced nanocarrier- and microneedle-based transdermal drug delivery strategies for skin diseases treatment
Advanced nanocarrier and microneedle drug delivery methods are more effective, safer, and less invasive for treating skin diseases.
research Delivery of Tissue-Targeted Scalpels: Opportunities and Challenges for In Vivo CRISPR/Cas-Based Genome Editing
Using CRISPR for gene editing in the body is promising but needs better delivery methods to be more efficient and specific.
research Recent studies on the delivery of hydrophilic drugs in nanoparticulate systems
Nanoparticulate systems improve drug delivery by controlling release, protecting drugs, changing absorption and distribution, and concentrating drugs in targeted areas.
research The Pharmacology of Regenerative Medicine
Regenerative pharmacology, which combines drugs with regenerative medicine, shows promise for repairing damaged body parts and needs more interdisciplinary research.
research Sustained release of dermal papilla-derived extracellular vesicles from injectable microgel promotes hair growth
Injecting a special gel with human protein particles can help hair grow.
