480-510 / 1000+ results research 1 Androgens
Testosterone is made by Leydig cells, is active when not bound to proteins, and works by binding to receptors in muscles and other tissues.
research Analysis of hidradenitis suppurativa–linked mutations in four genes and the effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages
The document concludes that certain mutations may contribute to the inflammation in hidradenitis suppurativa and suggests that targeting TNFα could be a treatment strategy.
research Effects of FGF5-mediated LncRNA on the skin fibroblast growth of Liaoning Cashmere goats
FGF-5 promotes Cashmere goat hair growth by increasing keratin genes and reducing certain LncRNA and target genes.
research Hair follicle stem cells and mitochondria
Hair follicle stem cells and mitochondria are key for hair growth, and targeting their activity could lead to new hair loss treatments.
research 704 Is intrafollicular autophagy an essential mechanism that permits human hair follicles to remain in prolonged anagen in vivo?
Autophagy, a cell recycling process, is crucial for prolonged hair growth and could be a potential target for treating hair growth disorders.
research Molecular mechanisms of androgen receptor functions
Androgen receptors play a key role in male development and prostate cancer, with treatments targeting androgen action.
research The Impact of Chemotherapy on the Nutritional Status of Breast Cancer Patients
Chemotherapy worsens nutritional status in breast cancer patients, requiring targeted nutritional strategies.
research Abstract LB-039: Chronic inflammation-mediated contribution of bone marrow-derived epithelial cells and hair follicle stem cells to development of cutaneous neoplasms
Bone marrow-derived cells contribute to skin tumors, suggesting new treatment targets for non-melanoma skin cancers.
research Male‐pattern baldness, common latent viruses, and microcompetition
Common latent viruses might contribute to male-pattern baldness by disrupting cell processes that normally suppress hair loss-related proteins.
research Stem cell-derived motor neurons from spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy patients
The study suggests that motor neurons created from stem cells of patients with spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy show signs of the disease, including changes in protein levels and cell functions.
research Gate keeping the sebaceous gland
The research found that specific stem cells maintain skin gland openings and that disrupting their activity can cause blockages or early cancer signs, indicating a need for targeted treatments.
research Advancing Design Strategy of PROTACs for Cancer Therapy
PROTACs show promise for cancer treatment, but designing them effectively is challenging.
research Chaperones as thermodynamic sensors
New cancer treatments show promise in reducing tumor growth and improving skin regeneration in mice.
research Spatiotemporal control of CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing
The document concludes that while there are promising methods to control CRISPR/Cas9 gene editing, more research is needed to overcome challenges related to safety and effectiveness for clinical use.
research PROTACs: A novel strategy for cancer drug discovery and development
PROTAC technology shows promise for cancer treatment but needs more effective E3 ligase recruiters.
research SOCS1 and SOCS3 as key checkpoint molecules in the immune responses associated to skin inflammation and malignant transformation
SOCS1 and SOCS3 help control skin inflammation and are important for developing treatments for skin diseases.
research Celsr1 and Celsr2 exhibit distinct adhesive interactions and contributions to planar cell polarity
Celsr1 is crucial for skin cell alignment, while Celsr2 has little effect on this process.
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 S100A6: molecular function and biomarker role
S100A6 is important for cell functions and can help diagnose and treat diseases.
research Past and Future Strategies for GPCR Deorphanization
Finding functions for unknown GPCRs is hard but key for making new drugs.
research Lack of androgen receptor transcriptional activity in human keratinocytes
Human keratinocytes do not naturally respond to androgens.
research MAD2B acts as a negative regulatory partner of TCF4 on proliferation in human dermal papilla cells
MAD2B slows down the growth of skin cells that are important for hair development by interacting with TCF4.
research RSPO1-mutated keratinocytes from palmoplantar keratoderma display impaired differentiation, alteration of cell–cell adhesion, EMT-like phenotype and invasiveness properties: implications for squamous cell carcinoma susceptibility in patients with 46XX disorder of sexual development
RSPO1 mutations in certain patients lead to skin cells that don't develop properly and are more likely to become invasive, increasing the risk of skin cancer.
research Introduction: splintering urbanism
TSPO might help treat anxiety and depression.
research UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap HRMS-based Metabolomics and In Silico Studies on 5-α-Reductase, JAK1, JAK2, and JAK3 of Albizia saponaria L.: Application to Alopecia
