research Heterozygous Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy-desmoplakin Mutation Carriers Exhibit a Subclinical Cutaneous Phenotype with Cell Membrane Disruption and Lack of Intercellular Adhesion
Carriers of a specific gene mutation have subtle skin changes without visible symptoms.
research Basal cell carcinomas in mice arise from hair follicle stem cells and multiple epithelial progenitor populations
Basal cell carcinomas in mice can start from hair follicle stem cells and other skin cell types, depending on signaling levels.
research POLYCOMB REPRESSIVE COMPLEX 1 IS REQUIRED TO MAINTAIN STEM CELL IDENTITY AND TO PRESERVE ADULT TISSUE HOMEOSTASIS.
Polycomb Repressive Complex 1 is crucial for keeping stem cells stable and maintaining healthy adult tissues.
research Progesterone Promotes Anti-Anxiety/Depressant-like Behavior and Trophic Actions of BDNF in the Hippocampus of Female Nuclear Progesterone Receptor, but Not 5α-Reductase, Knockout Mice
Progesterone reduces anxiety and depression in female mice by increasing BDNF in the brain, needing 5α-reduction and estradiol.
research Anticonvulsant Activity of Progesterone and Neurosteroids in Progesterone Receptor Knockout Mice
Progesterone's seizure-reducing effects are mainly due to allopregnanolone, not progesterone receptors.
research 175 Understanding immune privilege in an inducible mouse model of primary cicatrcial alopecia
The study found that a key immune pathway protecting hair follicles is reduced in a mouse model of scarring hair loss.
research 879 IL-9 mediated human primary keratinocytes invasion is dependent on MLC controlled contractility and independent of MMP activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Interleukin 6 and STAT3 regulate p63 isoform expression in keratinocytes during regeneration
The conclusion is that the IL-6/STAT3 activation affects p63 expression in healing wounds, which may help in hair follicle regeneration.
research XMU-MP-1 induces growth arrest in a model human mini-organ and antagonises cell cycle-dependent paclitaxel cytotoxicity
XMU-MP-1 stops cell growth in a human mini-organ and reduces the effectiveness of the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel.
research Targeting Expression of the Human Vitamin D Receptor to the Keratinocytes of Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice Prevents Alopecia
Expressing the human vitamin D receptor in skin cells prevents hair loss in certain mice.
research Protein Kinase C δ Overexpressing Transgenic Mice Are Resistant to Chemically but not to UV Radiation–Induced Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas: A Possible Link to Specific Cytokines and Cyclooxygenase-2
Mice with extra PKCδ resist chemical-induced skin cancer but not UV-induced.
research Generating LacZ-reporter transgenic mice to identify α1 (XIX) Collagen (Col19a1) expression in Dermal Papilla Cells
Type XIX Collagen is present in specific skin and hair cells during development.
research Targeting Expression of the Human Vitamin D Receptor to the Keratinocytes of Vitamin D Receptor Null Mice Prevents Alopecia
Expressing the human vitamin D receptor in skin cells prevents hair loss in certain mice.
research Conversion of the Nipple to Hair-Bearing Epithelia by Lowering Bone Morphogenetic Protein Pathway Activity at the Dermal-Epidermal Interface
Blocking a specific protein signal can make hair grow on mouse nipples.
research Loss-of-function mutations of an inhibitory upstream ORF in the human hairless transcript cause Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis
Certain mutations in a hair growth-related gene cause a type of genetic hair loss.
research Cardiac Outflow tract septation defects in a DiGeorge syndrome model respond to Minoxidil treatment.
Minoxidil treatment improves heart defects in a DiGeorge syndrome model.
