research Diversification and Specialization of Touch Receptors in Skin
Skin has specialized touch receptors that can tell different sensations apart.
research Inherited ichthyoses/generalized Mendelian disorders of cornification
Inherited ichthyoses cause widespread skin scaling and thickening due to gene mutations.
research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research White Lupin Cluster Root Acclimation to Phosphorus Deficiency and Root Hair Development Involve Unique Glycerophosphodiester Phosphodiesterases
White lupin uses specific genes to grow root hairs and access phosphorus when it's scarce.
research Diet and hair loss: effects of nutrient deficiency and supplement use
Correcting nutrient deficiencies may help with hair loss, but the benefits of supplements without a deficiency are uncertain and could be harmful.
