research The hairless gene mutated in congenital hair loss disorders encodes a novel nuclear receptor corepressor
The mutated hairless gene causes hair loss by acting as a new type of corepressor affecting thyroid hormone receptors.
research Regulatory T Cells: the Many Faces of Foxp3
Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.
research The Cytology and Cytochemistry of the Wool Follicle
Wool follicles are complex, involving interactions between different cell types and structures.
research THE DISEASE SPECTRUM, EPIDEMIOLOGY, AND ETIOLOGY OF TOXIC-SHOCK SYNDROME
Toxic Shock Syndrome cases increased due to new factors, but decreased with public health measures and changes in tampon use.
research The Functional Diversity of Epidermal Keratins Revealed by the Partial Rescue of the Keratin 14 Null Phenotype by Keratin 16
K16 can partially replace K14 but causes hair loss and skin issues.
research Deciphering the functions of the hair follicle infundibulum in skin physiology and disease
The hair follicle infundibulum plays a key role in skin health and disease, and understanding it better could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Minoxidil exerts different inhibitory effects on gene expression of lysyl hydroxylase 1, 2, and 3: Implications for collagen cross-linking and treatment of fibrosis
Minoxidil affects collagen-related genes, potentially helping treat fibrosis.
research Expanding the Nude SCID/CID Phenotype Associated with FOXN1 Homozygous, Compound Heterozygous, or Heterozygous Mutations
FOXN1 mutations can cause varying immune and physical issues, with severity influenced by gene activity and possibly other factors.
research Group IID, IIE, IIF and III secreted phospholipase A2s
Different sPLA2 enzymes affect immunity, skin and hair health, reproduction, and may be potential targets for therapy.
research Functional analyses of a novel missense and other mutations of the vitamin D receptor in association with alopecia
A single amino acid change in the vitamin D receptor can disrupt its function and lead to hair loss.
research Structures of three polycystic kidney disease-like domains fromClostridium histolyticumcollagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research The regulatory role of the tetrapeptide A cSDKP in skin and hair physiology and the prevention of ageing effects in these tissues – a potential cosmetic role
AcSDKP may help prevent skin and hair aging and promote their growth.
research Proteomic Characterization of Damaged Single Hairs Recovered after an Explosion for Protein-Based Human Identification
Explosions don't stop hair proteins from being used to identify people.
research Transcriptomics analysis reveals molecular alterations underpinning spaceflight dermatology
Spaceflight can harm skin health by altering gene expression, affecting DNA, mitochondria, and skin barriers.
research Amino Acids, Peptides, and Proteins
The document concludes that cosmetics need biocompatible, eco-friendly ingredients due to aging populations and demand for effective products.
research Study on the mechanism of cadmium chloride pollution accelerating skin tissue metabolism disorder, aging and inhibiting hair regeneration
Cadmium chloride pollution can cause skin disorders, speed up aging, and prevent hair growth.
research Identification of differentially expressed genes in actinic keratosis samples treated with ingenol mebutate gel
Ingenol mebutate gel changes gene expression related to skin development and immune response in actinic keratosis.
research Effects of molybdenum on growth and fruit quality of small fruit melon (Cucumis melo L.) cultivated under high-temperature stress
Using 0.1 mg·L–1 molybdenum improves melon growth, quality, and yield under high heat.
research Cysteine and Glutamine level in hair shaft fractures patients
Cysteine strengthens hair, and glutamine fuels hair growth.
research Energy-Based Devices in Male Skin Rejuvenation
Men are increasingly using energy-based skin treatments for workplace success, with lasers and other devices effectively improving skin and body appearance.
research Cloning, computational analysis and expression profiling of steroid 5 alpha-reductase 1 (SRD5A1) gene during reproductive phases and ovatide stimulation in endangered catfish, Clarias magur
The research identified and described a gene important for hormone conversion in endangered catfish, which varies in activity during different reproductive stages and after hormone treatment.
research Identification of a novel homozygous LAMB3 mutation in a Chinese male with junctional epidermolysis bullosa and severe urethra stenosis: A case report
A Chinese male with a new genetic mutation has a skin condition and severe urinary issues, with treatments having mixed success.
research Investigation of the crosstalk between proteasome function and nucleotide excision repair mechanism during ageing
The document concludes that the discussed biological mechanisms and potential therapies are not related to hair loss or hair growth.
research Defining stem cell dynamics and migration during wound healing in mouse skin epidermis
Stem cells help heal wounds by rapidly dividing and migrating to the wound edge.
research Single-cell analysis of murine fibroblasts identifies neonatal to adult switching that regulates cardiomyocyte maturation
Adult fibroblasts help heart cells mature and improve heart function.
