Early diagnosis and treatment are crucial for managing Folliculotropic Mycosis Fungoides on the scalp.
research Diagnostic dilemma: Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome versus incomplete Graham-Little-Piccardi-Lassueur Syndrome overlap mixed connective tissue disease
The case shows how hard it is to tell apart Multiple Autoimmune Syndrome from other similar autoimmune conditions, but correct diagnosis is key for treatment to work.
research Index
The document is a detailed guide on skin conditions and treatments for dermatologists.
research Benign skin tumors
Benign skin tumors need accurate diagnosis to ensure proper treatment.
research Hair Transplantation in Temporal Triangular Alopecia
Hair transplantation effectively treated a bald patch in an 18-year-old woman with Temporal Triangular Alopecia.
research Aesthetic Mesotherapy and Injection Lipolysis in Clinical Practice
The book gives a basic overview of mesotherapy and fat-dissolving injections but lacks detailed guidance and effectiveness comparisons for practitioners.
research A new look into an old problem: keratins as tools to investigate determination, morphogenesis, and differentiation in skin.
Keratin expression reflects cell organization and differentiation, not causes it.
research [An immunohistochemical study on cell differentiation in the outer root sheath of the normal human anagen hair follicles with antikeratin monoclonal antibodies].
Keratinocytes in hair follicles differentiate similarly to skin cells, with specific patterns in different regions.
research Hair follicle-specific keratins and their diseases
Only a few hair-specific keratins are linked to inherited hair disorders.
research Histologic Changes in Seborrheic Keratoses after Rubbing
Rubbing seborrheic keratoses causes specific skin changes and may link them to hair follicles.
research Keratin cytoskeletons in epithelial cells of internal organs
Keratins provide structural strength in epithelial cells and help identify cell origins.
research Keratin 71 Mutations: From Water Dogs to Woolly Hair
A mutation in the KRT71 gene causes a hair disorder by disrupting hair follicle structure and texture.
research Type II Keratins Are Phosphorylated on a Unique Motif during Stress and Mitosis in Tissues and Cultured Cells
Type II keratins are uniquely phosphorylated during stress and mitosis, affecting their structure and function.
research KRT16 wt Allele
Mutations in the KRT16 gene can cause skin and nail disorders.
research Differentiation and Apoptosis in Pilomatrixoma
Pilomatrixoma involves abnormal hair keratin production and cell death, causing debris and cysts.
research Harlequin fetus with abnormal lamellar granules and giant mitochondria
Harlequin ichthyosis involves abnormal skin cell structures and giant mitochondria, affecting skin and hair.
research Mutations in the helix termination motif of mouse type I IRS keratin genes impair the assembly of keratin intermediate filament
Mutations in specific keratin genes cause improper hair structure in mice due to faulty keratin protein assembly.
research Acquired perforating dermatosis in renal and diabetic patients
Acquired perforating dermatosis often affects skin in people with kidney issues and diabetes.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.
research Keratin disorders: from gene to therapy
New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.
research Loss of keratin 10 is accompanied by increased sebocyte proliferation and differentiation
Without keratin 10, there's more growth and development of oil-producing skin cells.
research The expanding significance of keratin intermediate filaments in normal and diseased epithelia
Keratin proteins are increasingly recognized as important for cell health and are linked to many diseases.
research Keratosis Follicularis Spinulosa Decalvans: Diagnosis and Therapeutic Evaluation.
KFSD causes scarring hair loss and skin roughness, mainly in males.
research Apoptosis and keratin intermediate filaments
research Regular expression of hair follicle keratins as crucial factors in tissue engineering of hair follicles
Keratins are key to developing and regenerating hair follicles for treating hair loss.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.
