360-390 / 1000+ resultsresearch Detection of Type IIHair Keratin Gene in a Family with Monilethrix
A unique gene mutation was found in a family with monilethrix.
research Sox9 expression in canine epithelial skin tumors
Sox9 is present in most canine skin tumors and may help understand stem cells' role in these cancers.
research Skin-specific expression of a truncated E1a oncoprotein binding to p105-Rb leads to abnormal hair follicle maturation without increased epidermal proliferation.
The oncoprotein causes abnormal hair growth without increasing skin cancer risk.
research Disturbed Keratinocyte Differentiation in Transgenic Mice and Organotypic Keratinocyte Cultures as a Result of Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Overexpression
Overexpression of SSAT causes hair loss and skin issues, but reducing putrescine can help.
research The G-Protein Couple Receptor Kinase 2 (GRK2) Orchestrates Hair Follicle Homeostasis
GRK2 is essential for healthy hair follicle function, and its absence can lead to hair loss and cysts.
research To Control Site-Specific Skin Gene Expression, Autocrine Mimics Paracrine Canonical Wnt Signaling and Is Activated Ectopically in Skin Disease
The research suggests that a specific skin gene can be controlled by signals within and between cells and is wrongly activated in certain skin diseases.

Zfp157 is active in many mouse tissues during development and in specific adult cells.
research Case report of Schöpf–Schulz–Passarge syndrome resulting from a missense mutation, p.Arg104Cys, in WNT 10A
A new gene mutation caused a man's rare skin condition, Schöpf-Schulz-Passarge syndrome.
research Abstract 5216: Impact of Stat3 deletion or activation on keratinocyte stem/progenitor cells
Stat3 influences keratinocyte stem cell behavior, affecting differentiation and migration.
research Deregulated expression of E2F1 induces hyperplasia and cooperates with ras in skin tumor development
Overexpression of E2F1 can lead to skin tumors and disrupt hair growth.
research Ornithine decarboxylase overexpression is a sufficient condition for tumor promotion in mouse skin.
High levels of ornithine decarboxylase can cause tumors in mouse skin.
