PAR-1 may play a role in hair growth regulation in human hair follicles.
research Nagashima-Type Palmoplantar Keratosis: A Common Asian Type Caused by SERPINB7 Protease Inhibitor Deficiency
Nagashima-type palmoplantar keratosis in Asians is caused by a SERPINB7 gene mutation.
research Epidermal differentiation: The role of proteases and their inhibitors
Balanced protease activity is crucial for healthy skin and hair development.
research Are the cutaneous manifestations during or due to SARS-CoV-2 infection/COVID-19 frequent or not? Revision of possible pathophysiologic mechanisms
Skin problems in COVID-19 patients are rare and may be due to the body's complex immune response or blood clotting issues.
research Basic mechanisms of SARS-CoV-2 infection. What endocrine systems could be implicated?
SARS-CoV-2, the virus causing COVID-19, can affect all endocrine organs and systems, altering their function and potentially leading to disorders. Factors like diabetes and obesity increase infection risk and severity. Understanding these effects is key for effective treatment.
research Cornification
Cornification is the process where living skin cells die to create a protective barrier, and problems with it can cause skin diseases.
research KLK5 and KLK7 Ablation Fully Rescues Lethality of Netherton Syndrome-Like Phenotype
Removing both KLK5 and KLK7 proteins can prevent death and skin issues in Netherton syndrome.
research The protease corin regulates electrolyte homeostasis in eccrine sweat glands
Corin helps control salt and sweat release in sweat glands.
research Expression and localization of A rtemis serine 516 phosphorylation in human scalp skin
Artemis phosphorylation at Ser516 may help regulate skin and hair structures.
research Functional identification of the phosphorylation sites of Arabidopsis PIN-FORMED3 for its subcellular localization and biological role
Phosphorylation of certain parts of the PIN3 protein is crucial for its role in plant root growth and response to gravity.
research The integrated stress response fine-tunes stem cell fate decisions upon serine deprivation and tissue injury
Serine is vital for hair follicle stem cells to balance hair growth and skin repair.
research Secreted subtilisin Sub3 from Microsporum canis is required for adherence to but not for invasion of the epidermis
Sub3 is essential for fungus adherence but not for skin invasion.
research Overexpression of Lnk in the Ovaries Is Involved in Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Higher Lnk protein levels in ovaries may lead to insulin resistance in women with PCOS.
research Enzymatic Method for Assessing Hair Damage with Reduction and Subsequent Oxidation
Permed hair degrades faster and shows more damage after protease treatment compared to untreated hair.
research Application of an Enzymatic Method for Identifying Hair Treatments
The enzymatic method can effectively identify chemical treatments on hair.
research Biochemical analysis and investigation on the prospective applications of alkaline protease from a Bacillus cereus strain
The enzyme from Bacillus cereus can be used in detergents and leather processing.
research Spink5-deficient mice mimic Netherton syndrome through degradation of desmoglein 1 by epidermal protease hyperactivity
research A case of MBTPS1 ‐related disorder due to compound heterozygous variants in MBTPS1 gene: Genotype–phenotype expansion and the emergence of a novel syndrome
A new syndrome was linked to two new genetic changes in the MBTPS1 gene in a 14-year-old girl.
research Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) activator expressed in hair follicles is involved in in vitro HGF-dependent hair follicle elongation
HGF activator helps convert HGF to its active form, promoting hair growth.
research Cardiac and Renal SARS-CoV-2 Viral Entry Protein Regulation by Androgens and Diet: Implications for Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and COVID-19
Androgens and a high-fat diet may increase the risk of severe COVID-19 in women with PCOS by upregulating certain proteins in the heart and kidneys.
research Updated strategies for the management, pathogenesis and molecular genetics of different forms of ichthyosis syndromes with prominent hair abnormalities
Early diagnosis and tailored treatments are crucial for managing ichthyosis syndromes with hair abnormalities.
research Partial Purification and Characterization of Two Distinct Types of Caspases from Human Epidermis
