research Evaluation of Clinical and Oral Findings in Patients with Epidermolysis bullosa
People with Epidermolysis bullosa have many health problems including poor oral health, which is often neglected due to other medical issues.
research The developmental basis of fingerprint pattern formation and variation
Fingerprints form uniquely before birth due to specific genetic pathways and local signals.
research Evolution of Trichocyte Keratins
Hair keratins evolved from ancient proteins, diversifying through gene changes, crucial for forming claws and later hair in mammals.
research Bioengineering the Hair Follicle
Bioengineering can potentially treat hair loss by regenerating hair follicles and cloning hair, but the process is complex and needs more research.
research Cutaneous mycoses in the elderly
Skin fungal infections are more common in older adults due to factors like obesity, poor circulation, reduced mobility, and weakened immune defenses from certain medications.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
