90-120 / 1000+ results research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Hague (Hag): A New Mouse Hair Mutation With an Unstable Semidominant Allele
A new mouse hair mutation, called hague, is semidominant and unstable, but the exact cause is unknown.
research Physiological and retinoid-induced proliferations of epidermis basal keratinocytes are differently controlled
Normal skin cell renewal doesn't need RAR signaling, but vitamin A-related skin thickening does.
research The Nude Mutant Gene Foxn1 Is a HOXC13 Regulatory Target during Hair Follicle and Nail Differentiation
HOXC13 is essential for hair and nail development by regulating Foxn1.
research When whorls collide: the development of hair patterns in frizzled 6 mutant mice
Hair follicles in mutant mice self-organize into ordered patterns within a week.
research Decision letter: Deletion of the MAD2L1 spindle assembly checkpoint gene is tolerated in mouse models of acute T-cell lymphoma and hepatocellular carcinoma
Deleting the MAD2L1 gene in mice led to rapid tumor growth despite chromosomal instability.
research Abstracts
Mice treatments didn't grow hair, a patient treatment may affect immune response, and people with hair loss often feel anxious or depressed.
research Kinase Inhibition with BAY 43–9006 in Renal Cell Carcinoma
BAY 43-9006 helps control kidney cancer growth but doesn't significantly increase overall survival.
research The malignant capacity of skin tumours induced by expression of a mutant H-ras transgene depends on the cell type targeted
The risk of skin tumors becoming malignant depends on the specific skin cell type affected.
research Taking advantage from phenotype variability in a local animal genetic resource: identification of genomic regions associated with the hairless phenotype in Casertana pigs
Researchers found two genes that may explain why some Casertana pigs don't have hair.
research Development of Woolly Hair and Hairlessness in a CRISPR−Engineered Mutant Mouse Model with KRT71 Mutations
Researchers made a mouse model with curly hair and hair loss by editing a gene.
research New case of trichorinophalangeal syndrome-like phenotype with a de novo t(2;8)(p16.1;q23.3) translocation which does not disrupt the TRPS1 gene
A woman with a unique syndrome similar to TRPS has a genetic change near the TRPS1 gene, affecting its regulation.
research Atypical Progeroid Syndrome due to Heterozygous Missense LMNA Mutations
The research found that Atypical Progeroid Syndrome has unique symptoms and is not caused by the buildup of a certain mutant protein.
research Functional characterization of soybean strigolactone biosynthesis and signaling genes in Arabidopsis MAX mutants and GmMAX3 in soybean nodulation
GmMAX3b gene in soybeans boosts nodulation and affects hormone levels.
research Fate of Prominin-1 Expressing Dermal Papilla Cells during Homeostasis, Wound Healing and Wnt Activation
Prominin-1 expressing cells in the dermal papilla help regulate hair follicle size and communication but don't aid in skin repair.
research An incompletely penetrant novel MAFB (p.Ser56Phe) variant in autosomal dominant multicentric carpotarsal osteolysis syndrome
Researchers found a new gene variant linked to a rare bone disease, which doesn't always cause symptoms in carriers.
research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.
research Increased Susceptibility to Skin Carcinogenesis Associated with a Spontaneous Mouse Mutation in the Palmitoyl Transferase Zdhhc13 Gene
A mouse gene mutation increases the risk of skin cancer.
research 332 OTULIN maintains skin homeostasis by controlling keratinocyte death and stem cell identity
ILC1-like cells can cause alopecia areata by affecting hair follicles.
research Activation of β-catenin signaling programs embryonic epidermis to hair follicle fate
Activating β-catenin can turn skin cells into hair follicles.
research Loss of epidermal Evi/Wls results in a phenotype resembling psoriasiform dermatitis
Loss of a specific protein in skin cells causes symptoms similar to psoriasis.
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 A novel MBTPS2 variant associated with BRESHECK syndrome impairs sterol‐regulated transcription and the endoplasmic reticulum stress response
A new genetic variant causes BRESHECK syndrome by disrupting cell growth and stress response.
research MLO ‐mediated Ca2+ influx regulates root hair tip growth in Arabidopsis
MLO proteins help regulate calcium and ROS levels, promoting root hair growth in Arabidopsis.
research Genetically separable determinants of hair keratin gene expression
Mutations in the Whn gene affect hair keratin gene expression differently.
research TCF/Lef1-Mediated Control of Lipid Metabolism Regulates Skin Barrier Function
TCF/Lef1 is essential for skin barrier function by regulating lipid metabolism.
research Hair follicle immune privilege and its collapse in alopecia areata
Hair follicles are normally protected from the immune system, but when this protection fails, it can cause hair loss in alopecia areata.
research Author response: Interplay of opposing fate choices stalls oncogenic growth in murine skin epithelium
The balance between cell renewal and differentiation controls the growth of cancerous cells in mouse skin.
research Pathogenesis of Alopecia Areata and Vitiligo: Commonalities and Differences
Alopecia areata and vitiligo share immune system dysfunction but differ in specific immune responses and affected areas.
