research A new tool for conditional gene manipulation in a subset of keratin‐expressing epithelia
The Megsin-Cre transgene is a new tool for genetic manipulation in the skin and upper digestive tract.
research Inflammatory Vegetative Lesions of the Perineum: A Rare and Severe Clinical Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton Syndrome can cause severe skin lesions in rare cases.
research Severe Hypernatremia as Presentation of Netherton Syndrome
Netherton syndrome can cause severe dehydration, infections, and growth issues in infants.
research Human genetic basis of coronavirus disease 2019
Genetic differences affect COVID-19 severity and treatment development.
research Androgens in SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus Infections
Men, particularly those with hair loss, are more likely to get the virus, and those with prostate cancer may have milder symptoms. Testosterone's role in the disease is unclear, and the virus doesn't seem to harm male fertility. Women with PCOS might be at higher risk. More research is needed.
research Late unexpected consequences of COVID‐19 infection in survivors of acute hypoxic respiratory failure
After severe COVID-19, 71% of patients experienced excessive hair shedding and thinning within 3 months due to factors like low oxygen levels, medication, stress, and autoimmune disease.
research Nitrogen and carbon isotope signatures in cattle hair
Cattle hair isotope analysis can reveal diet and farm system characteristics.
research The hair follicle enigma
The document concludes that understanding hair follicles requires more research using computational methods and an integrative approach, considering the current limitations in hair treatment products.
research Advances in Understanding Hair Growth
Understanding glycans and enzymes that alter them is key to controlling hair growth.
research Role of β-Catenin Activation Levels and Fluctuations in Controlling Cell Fate
Proper control of β-catenin activity is crucial for development and preventing diseases like cancer.
research Isolation and Characterization of a Novel Hair Follicle–Specific Gene, Hacl-1
Researchers found a new gene, hacl-1, that is active in mouse hair follicles during hair growth and may be important for hair biology.
research Flavonoids and Nod Factors: Importance in Legume-Microbe Interactions and Legume Improvement
Flavonoids and Nod factors are key for legume plant growth and could help in sustainable farming.
research Acne-Associated Syndromes
Acne is linked to inflammation and insulin resistance, and is associated with various syndromes that require different treatments.
research Wound Healing: A Cellular Perspective
The document concludes that better targeted treatments are needed for wound healing, and single-cell technologies may improve cell-based therapies.
research Matriptase activation and shedding with HAI-1 is induced by steroid sex hormones in human prostate cancer cells, but not in breast cancer cells
Steroid sex hormones activate matriptase in prostate cancer cells but not in breast cancer cells.
research Molecular Genetic and Endocrine Mechanisms of Hair Growth
Hormones and their receptors, especially androgens, play a key role in hair growth and disorders like baldness.
research iRhom2 Mutation Leads to Aberrant Hair Follicle Differentiation in Mice
A mutation in the iRhom2 gene causes hairless mice due to abnormal hair follicle development.
research A disease-causing novel missense mutation in the ST14 gene underlies autosomal recessive ichthyosis with hypotrichosis syndrome in a consanguineous family
A new mutation in the ST14 gene causes a rare skin and hair disorder in a specific family.
research Prostate-Specific Antigen as a Marker of Hyperandrogenism in Women and Its Implications for Antidoping
PSA levels could help detect illegal steroid use in female athletes but face challenges like cost and PCOS prevalence.
research Dupilumab in a 9-week-old with Netherton Syndrome Leads to Deep Symptom Control
Dupilumab effectively controls symptoms in infants with Netherton syndrome.
research TMPRSS2: A Key Host Factor in SARS-CoV-2 Infection and Potential Therapeutic Target
TMPRSS2 is crucial for COVID-19 infection and is a potential target for treatment.
research Vesicular Carriers for Improved Oral Anticoagulation Competence of Rivaroxaban: In Vitro and In Vivo Investigation
