research Gender Differences in Cardiac Hypertrophy
Women generally handle heart enlargement better than men, but it's riskier for them if it occurs; hormones like estrogen offer some protection.

research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research Mediator1: An Important Intermediary of Vitamin D Receptor–Regulated Epidermal Function and Hair Follicle Biology
Vitamin D receptor and mediator 1 are crucial for healthy skin and hair growth.
research Canonical prolactin signaling and global mRNA expression in the skin of Holstein heifers carrying the SLICK1 allele of the prolactin receptor gene
The SLICK1 allele in Holstein heifers affects hair and immune traits without altering prolactin signaling.
research Ligand-Independent Vitamin D Receptor Actions Essential for Keratinocyte Homeostasis in the Skin
Non-liganded Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for healthy skin and hair.
research Hairless and Wnt Signaling: Allies in Epithelial Stem Cell Differentiation
The HR protein's role as a repressor is essential for controlling hair growth.
research Role of insulin resistance and diet in acne
Eating high glycemic foods and drinking milk may worsen acne by increasing insulin and IGF-1 levels.
research Studying the genetic predisposing factors in the pathogenesis of acne vulgaris
Genetics play a role in acne, but how exactly they contribute is not fully understood.
research Role of vitamin D and calcium signaling in epidermal wound healing
Vitamin D and calcium are important for quick and effective skin wound healing.
research Ligand‐Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor: More Questions Than Answers
The vitamin D receptor can act without its usual activating molecule, affecting hair growth and skin cancer, but its full range of actions is not well understood.
research Pathomechanism of androgenetic alopecia and new treatment
Male pattern baldness is caused by certain cells in hair follicles and could potentially be treated by targeting a specific growth factor, TGF-β1.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research The 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3-independent actions of the vitamin D receptor in skin
The vitamin D receptor helps regulate skin and hair health independently of its usual vitamin D ligand.
research The preventive effect of vitamin D3 on radiation-induced hair toxicity in a rat model
Vitamin D3 may protect rat hair follicles from radiation damage.
research Hereditary 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D-resistant rickets (HVDRR): clinical heterogeneity and long-term efficacious management of eight patients from four unrelated Arab families with a loss of function VDR mutation
Patients with the same genetic mutation for vitamin D-resistant rickets showed different symptoms but all improved with treatment except for hair loss.
research Mutations in the vitamin D receptor and hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets
Mutations in the vitamin D receptor cause hereditary vitamin D-resistant rickets, leading to poor bone health and requiring high calcium doses for treatment.
research The Vitamin D Receptor as Tumor Suppressor in Skin
Vitamin D and its receptor may help prevent skin cancer.
research Lack of the Vitamin D Receptor is Associated with Reduced Epidermal Differentiation and Hair Follicle Growth
Vitamin D Receptor is crucial for normal skin and hair growth.
research Atrichia Caused by Mutations in the Vitamin D Receptor Gene is a Phenocopy of Generalized Atrichia Caused by Mutations in the Hairless Gene
Mutations in the Vitamin D receptor gene can cause hair loss similar to mutations in the Hairless gene.
research Vitamin D Receptor, UVR, and Skin Cancer: A Potential Protective Mechanism
Vitamin D receptor may help protect against UV-induced skin cancer.
research Through the lens of hair follicle neogenesis, a new focus on mechanisms of skin regeneration after wounding
Hair can regrow in large wounds through a process similar to how hair forms in embryos, and understanding this could lead to new treatments for hair loss or scarring.
research A Novel Missense Mutation Affecting the Human Hairless Thyroid Receptor Interacting Domain 2 Causes Congenital Atrichia
A specific gene mutation causes congenital hair loss.
research The aetiopathogenesis of acne vulgaris - what's new?
Acne is caused by multiple factors including oil production, bacteria, inflammation, and possibly diet and environment.
research Hypothesis: Wound‐induced TLR 3 activation stimulates endogenous retinoic acid synthesis and signalling during regeneration
Activating TLR3 may help produce retinoic acid, important for tissue regeneration.
research The Role of the Vitamin D Receptor in the Epidermal Stem Cell Response to Wounding
Vitamin D receptor is crucial for skin wound healing.
research Physiological Insights from the Vitamin D Receptor Knockout Mouse
research An essential role for Rxrα in the development of Th2 responses
RXRα is crucial for proper immune response and links diet to immune function.
research The epidermis: rising to the surface
The document concludes that recent research has improved understanding of skin diseases and the balance between cell growth and differentiation in the epidermis.
