research Unmet Medical Needs in Chronic, Non-communicable Inflammatory Skin Diseases
There are still challenges in diagnosing and treating chronic skin diseases, but there is hope for future improvements.
research miR‐218‐5p regulates skin and hair follicle development through Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway by targeting SFRP2
miR-218-5p helps skin and hair growth by targeting SFRP2 and activating a specific signaling pathway.
research Valproic acid promotes human hair growth in in vitro culture model
Valproic acid may help hair grow and could be a safe treatment for hair loss.
research The impact of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 on male reproduction and men’s health
COVID-19 might affect male fertility, but more research is needed to understand the full impact.
research Androgen receptor gene CAG repeat polymorphism in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
Longer CAG repeat lengths in the androgen receptor gene are linked to higher testosterone levels in women with PCOS.
research Are sex discordant outcomes in COVID-19 related to sex hormones?
Sex hormones may affect COVID-19 severity, with men often faring worse, and targeting related pathways could offer treatment options.
research Signalling couples hair follicle stem cell quiescence with reduced histone H3 K4/K9/K27me3 for proper tissue homeostasis
Certain signals are important for reducing specific chemical markers on hair follicle stem cells during rest periods, which is necessary for healthy hair growth.
research Sarcoptic mange outbreak decimates South American wild camelid populations in San Guillermo National Park, Argentina
Sarcoptic mange nearly wiped out vicuñas and guanacos in an Argentine park.
research Androgen receptor gene CAG and GGN polymorphisms in infertile Nigerian men
Certain gene variations are not a major cause of male infertility in Nigerian men.
research Genome-wide association study of skin complex diseases
Genetic variants linked to ten skin diseases were found, showing both immune and non-immune factors play a role.
research Multimodal profiling reveals site-specific adaptation and tissue residency hallmarks of γδ T cells across organs in mice
γδ T cells adapt uniquely to different tissues in mice.
research Androgen Receptor Mutations and Polymorphisms in African American Prostate Cancer
African American men with prostate cancer have more androgen receptor mutations, which may lead to more aggressive cancer compared to Caucasian American men.
research Sterol Intermediates of Cholesterol Biosynthesis Inhibit Hair Growth and Trigger an Innate Immune Response in Cicatricial Alopecia
Cholesterol-related compounds can stop hair growth and cause inflammation in a type of scarring hair loss.
research Consequences of steroid-5α-reductase deficiency and inhibition in vertebrates
Lack or blocking of SRD5a, a key component in hormone creation, can lead to conditions like pseudohermaphrodism and affect hair growth, bone mass, muscle strength, and reproductive health. More research is needed on its regulation from fertilization to adulthood.
research Newborn infant skin gene expression: Remarkable differences versus adults
Newborn skin is uniquely prepared to adapt to new environments compared to adult skin.
research Peripheral blood gene expression in alopecia areata reveals molecular pathways distinguishing heritability, disease and severity
Blood tests can help understand the genetic differences in people with alopecia areata, including how severe it is and if it's inherited.
research COVID-19 clinical outcomes and nationality: results from a Nationwide registry in Kuwait
Non-Kuwaiti COVID-19 patients had worse health outcomes than Kuwaitis, likely due to poorer socioeconomic conditions.
research Generation of Tβ4 knock-in Cashmere goat using CRISPR/Cas9
Researchers used CRISPR/Cas9 to create a goat with a gene that increased cashmere production by 74.5% without affecting quality.
research A Pharmacogenetic Survey of Androgen Receptor (CAG)N and (GGN)N Polymorphisms in Patients Experiencing Long Term Side Effects after Finasteride Discontinuation
Longer CAG and GGN repeats increase alopecia risk, but no significant link to post-finasteride syndrome found.
research Indian Hedgehog Controls Proliferation and Differentiation in Skin Tumorigenesis and Protects against Malignant Progression
Indian Hedgehog helps control skin cell growth and protects against aggressive skin cancer.
research Brain-targeted intranasal delivery of protein-based gene therapy for treatment of ischemic stroke
Intranasal delivery of gene therapy shows promise for treating ischemic stroke.
research Changes in serum free testosterone, sleep patterns, and 5‐alpha‐reductase type I activity influence changes in sebum excretion in female subjects
Sleep, testosterone levels, and a specific enzyme activity affect skin oil production in women.
research Enrichment and Characterization of Human Dermal Stem/Progenitor Cells by Intracellular Granularity
Scientists identified a unique type of human skin stem cell that could help with tissue repair.
research Lipin 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain gene variations might help protect against insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Finding Long-COVID: temporal topic modeling of electronic health records from the N3C and RECOVER programs
Long-COVID causes more health issues after COVID-19, varying by age, sex, and infection wave.
research Taming of Covid-19: potential and emerging application of mesenchymal stem cells
Mesenchymal stem cells show promise in treating COVID-19 by reducing inflammation and aiding recovery, but more research is needed.
research Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds—Revisiting the cause of a well-known disease
Bald thigh syndrome in sighthounds is caused by structural defects in hair shafts due to downregulated genes and proteins.
