research Differential expression analysis of balding and nonbalding dermal papilla microRNAs in male pattern baldness with a microRNA amplification profiling method
Certain microRNAs are more common in balding areas and might be involved in male pattern baldness.
research Hair keratin KRT81 is expressed in normal and breast cancer cells and contributes to their invasiveness
The hair keratin gene KRT81 is found in both normal and breast cancer cells and helps them invade surrounding tissues.
research Progesterone-induced stimulation of mammary tumorigenesis is due to the progesterone metabolite, 5α-dihydroprogesterone (5αP) and can be suppressed by the 5α-reductase inhibitor, finasteride
Progesterone byproduct 5αP stimulates mammary tumor growth, but finasteride can suppress it.
research Activation of the OVOL1-OVOL2 Axis in the Hair Bulb and in Pilomatricoma
The genes OVOL1 and OVOL2 are important for hair growth and may be involved in a type of skin tumor.
research Defining the Localization and Molecular Characteristic of Minor Salivary Gland Label-Retaining Cells
The study found stem cells in minor salivary glands that can differentiate and are involved in tumor formation when exposed to tobacco.
research Complex Changes in the Apoptotic and Cell Differentiation Programs during Initiation of the Hair Follicle Response to Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy causes complex changes in hair follicle cells that can lead to hair loss.
research Factors regulating quiescent stem cells: insights from the intestine and other self-renewing tissues
The document concludes that stem cell inactivity is actively controlled and important for tissue repair and balance.
research HIF-1α Stimulators Function Equally to Leading Hair Loss Agents in Enhancing Dermal Papilla Growth
HIF-1α stimulators, like deferiprone, work as well as popular hair loss treatments, minoxidil and caffeine, in promoting hair growth.
research 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate Induces Apoptosis in Renal Epithelial Cells through a Growth Signal Conflict Which Is Prevented by Activated ras1
Activated ras can protect kidney cells from a certain substance that causes cell death.
research From basic biology to engineered therapies: the keratinocyte stem cell playbook
Keratinocyte stem cells are crucial for skin renewal and have potential in wound healing and tissue regeneration.
research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research Dormant tumor cells in ret transgenic mouse melanoma model and their interaction with memory T cells
Dormant melanoma cells in mice interact minimally with memory T cells due to a suppressive tumor environment.
research KRT72 wt Allele
KRT72 gene helps form hair.
research Characterization of Human Keratin-Associated Protein 1 Family Members
Mutations in hKAP1 genes may cause hereditary hair disorders.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Mapping of a novel locus for keratosis follicularis squamosa on chromosome 7p14.3–7p12.1
A new gene location for Keratosis follicularis squamosa was found on chromosome 7p14.3-7p12.1.
