research Decreased expression of cytokeratin 15 and tropoelastin in men with androgenetic alopecia and its relationship with increased expression of p15/p16
Men with androgenetic alopecia have lower levels of certain proteins and more cell damage.
research Novel mutation in PTCH1 gene in a patient with basal cell nevus syndrome and uterus bicornis
research A machine learning and network framework to discover new indications for small molecules
A machine learning model called CATNIP can predict new uses for existing drugs, like using antidepressants for Parkinson's disease and a thyroid cancer drug for diabetes.
research The ATP sensitive potassium channel (KATP) is a novel target for migraine drug development
Blocking the KATP channel may help treat migraines.
research Prioritizing Susceptibility Genes for the Prognosis of Male-pattern Baldness with Transcriptome-wide Association Study
The research identified genes linked to male-pattern baldness and potential drug targets for treatment.
research T Cells Promote Distinct Transcriptional Programs of Cutaneous Inflammatory Disease in Keratinocytes and Dermal Fibroblasts
research Downregulation of mRNAs Encoding Keratin-Associated Proteins in the Tongue of Mice Fed a High-Fat Diet
A high-fat diet may weaken tongue structure by reducing certain protein genes.
research State-dependent signaling by Cav1.2 regulates hair follicle stem cell function
Cav1.2 affects hair growth and could be a target for hair loss treatments.
research Epidermal γδ T cells, CD8 T cells and macrophages are increased in number in alopecia areata and express BST2 as part of an interferon-driven antiviral gene signature
In alopecia areata, certain immune cells increase and express a protein linked to immune activation.
research The CAP1/Prss8 catalytic triad is not involved in PAR2 activation and protease nexin‐1 (PN‐1) inhibition
CAP1/Prss8 does not activate PAR2 or inhibit PN-1.
research Genome-wide expression profile analysis of 3D cultured dermal papilla cells from patients with androgenic alopecia
Hair loss in androgenic alopecia patients is linked to changes in certain genes that control cell growth and death.
research 576 A preliminary study of melanogenic markers in the differentiation of the human hair follicle melanin unit
The study found markers indicating that cells responsible for hair color are differentiating in specific areas of the hair follicle.
research Natural Killer Group 2 Type D (NKG2D) Gene Polymorphism in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus-Suez Canal Region - Egypt
NKG2D gene polymorphism doesn't affect SLE risk but may influence symptoms like rash and hair loss.
research Contrasting Localization of c-Myc with Other Myc Superfamily Transcription Factors in the Human Hair Follicle and During the Hair Growth Cycle
Different Myc family proteins are located in various parts of the hair follicle and may affect stem cell behavior.
research Type 2 Diabetic Mellitus Inhibits Skin Renewal through Inhibiting WNT-Dependent Lgr5+ Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation in C57BL/6 Mice
Type 2 diabetes slows down skin and hair renewal by blocking important stem cell activation in mice.
research Author response: Human biallelic MFN2 mutations induce mitochondrial dysfunction, upper body adipose hyperplasia, and suppression of leptin expression
MFN2 mutations cause mitochondrial problems, leading to more upper body fat and lower leptin levels.
research Keratinocyte growth factor is an important endogenous mediator of hair follicle growth, development, and differentiation. Normalization of the nu/nu follicular differentiation defect and amelioration of chemotherapy-induced alopecia.
Keratinocyte growth factor promotes hair growth and reduces hair loss from chemotherapy.
research Induction of T cell exhaustion by JAK1/3 inhibition in the treatment of alopecia areata
Ifidancitinib, a JAK inhibitor, effectively regrows hair in mice with alopecia by tiring out harmful T cells.
research ER71/ETV2 Promotes Hair Regeneration from Chemotherapeutic Drug-Induced Hair Loss by Enhancing Angiogenesis
The protein ER71/ETV2 helps regrow hair after chemotherapy by improving the growth of new blood vessels.
research Promotion of Skin Carcinogenesis by Dimethylarsinic Acid in Keratin (K6)/ODC Transgenic Mice
Dimethylarsinic acid speeds up skin tumor growth in certain mice.
research MicroRNA-302 Increases Reprogramming Efficiency via Repression of NR2F2

research Keratins in health and cancer: more than mere epithelial cell markers
Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.
research Dihydrotestosterone-Inducible Dickkopf 1 from Balding Dermal Papilla Cells Causes Apoptosis in Follicular Keratinocytes
A substance called DKK-1 increases in balding areas and causes hair cells to die when exposed to DHT.
research Conversion of C57Bl/6 mice from a tumor promotion-resistant to a -sensitive phenotype by enhanced ornithine decarboxylase expression
Increased ornithine decarboxylase makes normally tumor-resistant mice more sensitive to tumors.
research Discovery of a novel murine keratin 6 (K6) isoform explains the absence of hair and nail defects in mice deficient for K6a and K6b
A new keratin 6 type in mice explains why some mice without certain keratin genes still have normal hair and nails.
