research The Dickkopf Protein Family in Non-Neoplastic Disorders: Emerging Roles and Therapeutic Targeting
The Dickkopf (DKK) protein family, known for regulating the Wnt signaling pathway, has been increasingly recognized for its roles in non-cancerous diseases such as osteoporosis, arthritis, chronic kidney disease, myocardial injury, neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's disease, and dermatological issues including alopecia. Recent research highlights the potential of DKK proteins as diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in these disorders. This review synthesizes findings from the past three years, exploring the DKK family's pathophysiological roles and clinical relevance, and discusses the challenges and opportunities in leveraging these proteins for diagnosis and treatment.

research Cutaneous gain-of-function mutation of LRIG3 leads to alopecia by upregulation of ERBB, PI3K/AKT, NOTCH1 signaling pathways
The study investigates the role of LRIG3 in skin homeostasis by overexpressing it in mouse skin, revealing that this leads to alopecia. The research highlights that LRIG3 overexpression results in hair loss and significant changes in skin protein profiles, particularly affecting keratinocyte differentiation and hair follicle development. The study identifies upregulation of ERBB, NOTCH, and PI3K/AKT signaling pathways in the skin of transgenic mice, suggesting that LRIG3 plays a crucial role in maintaining skin balance. This research provides new insights into the function of LRIG3, previously less understood compared to other LRIG family members.
