research Immunolocalization of telomerases in human hairs identifies proliferating cells in the bulb matrix and outer root sheath
Telomerase-positive cells are mainly in the bulb matrix and outer root sheath of hair follicles.
research Conditional telomerase induction causes proliferation of hair follicle stem cells
Activating TERT in mice skin boosts hair growth by waking up hair follicle stem cells.
research New insights into the role of Runx1 in epithelial stem cell biology and pathology
Runx1 affects hair growth, cancer development, and autoimmune diseases in epithelial tissues.
research Epigenetic mechanism of Gtl2-miRNAs causes the primitive sheep characteristics found in purebred Merino sheep
A special gene region controls the re-emergence of a primitive wool type in Merino sheep, improving their wool yield and adaptability.
research Human KAP Genes, Only the Half of it? Extensive Size Polymorphisms in Hair Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
KAP genes show significant genetic variability, but its impact on hair traits is unclear.
research Position effect on FGF13 associated with X-linked congenital generalized hypertrichosis
FGF13 gene changes cause excessive hair growth in a rare condition.
research Distinct transcriptomic landscapes of cutaneous basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas
Basal cell carcinomas and squamous cell carcinomas have different gene activity patterns, suggesting unique treatment approaches.
research INTERFERONS IN DERMATOLOGY
Interferons are effective for some skin conditions and cancers, but can have side effects and need more research for optimal use.
research 5α‐Reductase Inhibitors
Finasteride effectively treats enlarged prostate and male baldness, improves symptoms of hirsutism in women, but doesn't work for acne, and may delay prostate cancer progression with few side effects.
research Transcriptional profiling of putative human epithelial stem cells
Alpha 6 + /MHCI - cells have stem cell traits and are similar to mouse hair follicle stem cells.
research Imprinted Dlk1-Gtl2 cluster miRNAs are potential epigenetic regulators of lamb fur quality
miRNAs in the Dlk1-Gtl2 region may improve lamb fur quality.
research Comparative Study of Some Potential Paracrine Factors Produced by Normal and Androgenetic Alopecia Hair Follicles
Balding hair follicles have less growth-promoting factors and more inhibitory factors, leading to hair loss.
research Iatrogen male infertility
Medical treatments like chemotherapy and radiotherapy can harm sperm production, so freezing sperm before treatment is important for men who want children later.
research Epimorphin expression during human foetal hair follicle development
Epimorphin, a protein, plays a key role in the development of hair follicles in human fetuses, but it doesn't help in maintaining the stem cell population of the follicular skin layer.
research Alopecia areata: Animal models illuminate autoimmune pathogenesis and novel immunotherapeutic strategies
Animal models have helped understand hair loss from alopecia areata and find new treatments.
research The Complexity of the Ovine and Caprine Keratin-Associated Protein Genes
Sheep and goat hair fibers are complex due to keratin-associated proteins, which are important for fiber properties and growth.
research Finasteride
Finasteride treats enlarged prostate and may help with baldness, but effects on sexual function and male fetuses are unclear.
research Visualising Androgen Receptor Activity in Male and Female Mice
Androgen receptors are active in many tissues of both male and female mice, not just reproductive organs.
research Apoptosis and cutaneous biology
Apoptosis is crucial for healthy skin and treating skin diseases.
research SARS-CoV-2 Spike Protein S1-Mediated Endothelial Injury and Pro-Inflammatory State Is Amplified by Dihydrotestosterone and Prevented by Mineralocorticoid Antagonism
Spironolactone may help reduce COVID-19 severity in men by blocking harmful effects of certain hormones.
research The Hairless Phenotype of the Hirosaki Hairless Rat Is Due to the Deletion of an 80-kb Genomic DNA Containing Five Basic Keratin Genes
Hirosaki hairless rats lack hair due to missing DNA with key keratin genes.
research The impact of VDR expression and regulation in vivo
VDR regulation varies by tissue and is crucial for its biological functions.
research 5α‐Reductase inhibitors and prostatic disease
5α-Reductase inhibitors can help treat hair loss, acne, and prostate issues by reducing DHT levels.
research 5alpha-reductase inhibitors - a new hope in dermatology?
Finasteride shows promise for treating hair loss and excessive hair growth, but more research is needed to confirm its effectiveness and safety.
