research Deletion of hypoxia-inducible factor prolyl 4-hydroxylase 2 in FoxD1-lineage mesenchymal cells leads to congenital truncal alopecia
Removing a specific gene in certain skin cells causes hair loss on the body by disrupting normal hair development.
research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research Does the law provide effective equality rights for people with a visible difference in the workplace?
UK law does not effectively ensure workplace equality for people with visible differences.
research Structural & functional studies of L-PGDS and SMPDL3A enzymes in lipid signaling family
L-PGDS has specific binding sites for its functions and could help in drug delivery system design.
research An Investigation of Hair and its Keratin Associated Proteins using Advanced Light Microscopy
Advanced microscopy shows hair damage and keratin proteins' roles, aiding future cosmetic treatments.
research Neuroendocrine Controls of Keratin Expression in Human Skin
Neurohormones help control skin health and could treat skin disorders.
research Alopecia areata susceptibility variant identified by MHC risk haplotype sequencing reproduces symptomatic patched hair loss in mice
A gene variant causes patched hair loss in mice, similar to alopecia areata in humans.
research 875 A novel animal model of Desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) deficiency reveals an essential role for Dsg1 in epidermal barrier formation
Dsg1 is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier in mice.
research 879 IL-9 mediated human primary keratinocytes invasion is dependent on MLC controlled contractility and independent of MMP activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research 877 Integration of magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy for exploring the mechanobiology of keratinocyte cell-cell and cell-matrix anchoring junctions
The conclusion is that a new method combining magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy may help understand skin cell interactions and diseases.
research 874 Elevated expression of osteopontin splice variants in nonmelanoma skin cancer compared to normal skin and adult keratinocytes
Nonmelanoma skin cancers have higher levels of certain osteopontin variants than normal skin.
research Integration of Biochemical and Mechanical Signals at the Nuclear Periphery: Impacts on Skin Development and Disease
The conclusion is that the nuclear lamina and LINC complex in skin cells respond to mechanical signals, affecting gene expression and cell differentiation, which is important for skin health and can impact skin diseases.
research 138 Characterization of xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes of a reconstructed human epidermal model from adult hair follicles
The reconstructed skin model from hair follicles functions like human skin in processing chemicals and can be used to test ingredient safety.
research Reporting on Adverse Clinical Events
Different medications can cause serious side effects in some people.
research The Degradative Characteristics of Hair in The Water Samples with Altered pH
Hair fibers degrade and change color in very basic water.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Antioxidants and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics
Antioxidants may help improve mitochondrial health and could be used to treat diseases related to cell damage.
research Primary Generalized Glucocorticoid Resistance or Chrousos Syndrome: Allostasis Through a Mutated Glucocorticoid Receptor
Chrousos Syndrome is caused by mutations that make the body less sensitive to glucocorticoids, leading to various symptoms and requiring high-dose treatment.
research Chapter 6. Darwinian Health and Other Contradictions
The document concludes that understanding health requires considering evolutionary perspectives on reproductive fitness, and recognizing the complexity of factors like diet, testosterone, and sexual orientation.
research Abstracts from the ASA 40thAnnual Meeting
HNG may help prevent the negative effects of chemotherapy on sperm production and white blood cell counts.
