research SRD5A3 Is Required for Converting Polyprenol to Dolichol and Is Mutated in a Congenital Glycosylation Disorder
Mutations in the SRD5A3 gene cause a new type of glycosylation disorder by blocking the production of a molecule necessary for protein glycosylation.
research Endocrinology of Transgender Medicine
Hormone treatments for transgender individuals generally improve mental health and physical transition, with some health risks that require medical supervision.
research Mutations in Three Genes Encoding Proteins Involved in Hair Shaft Formation Cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome
Mutations in three genes cause Uncombable Hair Syndrome, leading to frizzy hair that can't be combed flat.
research Human hair follicles contain two forms of ATP‐ sensitive potassium channels, only one of which is sensitive to minoxidil
One minoxidil-sensitive potassium channel exists in human hair follicles.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Androgen excess: Investigations and management
The conclusion is that managing androgen excess requires long-term treatment, including hormonal contraceptives and androgen blockers, with follow-up after six months.
research Diet and hair loss: effects of nutrient deficiency and supplement use
Correcting nutrient deficiencies may help with hair loss, but the benefits of supplements without a deficiency are uncertain and could be harmful.
research Protein Kinase Cε, which Sensitizes Skin to Sun's UV Radiation–Induced Cutaneous Damage and Development of Squamous Cell Carcinomas, Associates with Stat3
Protein Kinase Cε increases skin sensitivity to UV damage and skin cancer risk.
research Liposomal Packaging Generates Wnt Protein with In Vivo Biological Activity
Wnt3a protein, when packed in liposomal vesicles, can stimulate hair growth and could potentially treat conditions like hair loss.
research Mice with Alopecia, Osteoporosis, and Systemic Amyloidosis Due to Mutation in Zdhhc13, a Gene Coding for Palmitoyl Acyltransferase
A gene mutation in mice causes hair loss, weak bones, and protein buildup, showing how protein processing issues can lead to diseases.
research The proteomics of keratin proteins
Modern techniques have improved the understanding of keratin proteins, revealing their roles in various cells and potential in disease diagnosis.
research The role of lymphocytes in the development and treatment of alopecia areata

research Ornithine Decarboxylase Expression Leads to Translocation and Activation of Protein Kinase CK2 in Vivo
High ornithine decarboxylase levels may lead to hair loss and cancer by increasing CK2 activity in the nucleus.
research Haplotypes spanning centromeric regions reveal persistence of large blocks of archaic DNA
Ancient DNA blocks are still present in human genomes, possibly due to advantages they provide.
research Cyclosporin A Promotes Hair Epithelial Cell Proliferation and Modulates Protein Kinase C Expression and Translocation in Hair Epithelial Cells
Cyclosporin A promotes hair cell growth and affects protein kinase C levels.
research Tuning Wnt Signals for More or Fewer Hairs
Changing Wnt signaling can lead to more or less hair growth and might help treat hair loss and skin conditions.
