480-510 / 1000+ resultsresearch Transcription factor-based transdifferentiation of human embryonic to trophoblast stem cells
Researchers converted human embryonic stem cells into trophoblast stem cells using specific transcription factors.
research Key Factors in the Complex and Coordinated Network of Skin Keratinization: Their Significance and Involvement in Common Skin Conditions
Understanding keratinization is crucial for treating skin conditions like ichthyoses and psoriasis.
research Wnt/β-catenin signalling: function, biological mechanisms, and therapeutic opportunities
The Wnt/β-catenin pathway is important for body functions and diseases, and targeting it may treat conditions like cancer, but with safety challenges.
research Human Teeth Is Useful Even after Its SHED! So, Why Discard It?
Baby teeth stem cells can potentially grow organs and treat diseases.
research Stem cell dynamics in the hair follicle niche
Stem cells in the hair follicle are regulated by their surrounding environment, which is important for hair growth.
research May AMH levels distinguish LOCAH from PCOS among hirsute women?
AMH levels can't reliably tell the difference between LOCAH and all types of PCOS in women with excessive hair growth.
research Exploring the “brain-skin connection”: Leads and lessons from the hair follicle
Hair follicles on the scalp interact with and respond to the nervous system, influencing their own behavior and growth.
research Clinical characterization of men with long QT syndrome and torsades de pointes associated with hypogonadism: A review and pharmacovigilance study
Low testosterone in men is a risk factor for a specific heart rhythm issue, and testosterone treatment may help prevent it.
research Transgenic mice display hair loss and regrowth overexpressing mutant Hr gene
Mice with a changed Hr gene lose and regrow hair due to changes in the gene's activity.
research Frontal fibrosing alopecia
Hormonal imbalances may play a role in frontal fibrosing alopecia, and antiandrogenic drugs combined with steroids are currently the most effective treatment.
research HSD3B1 gene polymorphism and female pattern hair loss in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
HSD3B1 gene variant and being overweight linked to hair loss in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research Melanocyte and gonad activity as potential severity modifying factors in C3H/HeJ mouse alopecia areata
Gonadal hormones significantly affect the severity of alopecia areata in mice.
research Crosstalk between androgen and Wnt/β-catenin leads to changes of wool density in FGF5-knockout sheep
Blocking the FGF5 gene in sheep leads to more fine wool and active hair follicles due to changes in certain cell signaling pathways.
research Cutaneous transcriptome analysis in NIH hairless mice
Key genes linked to hair growth and cancer were identified in hairless mice.
research The Changing Landscape of Alopecia Areata: The Therapeutic Paradigm
New treatments for Alopecia Areata, like JAK inhibitors, show promise for hair regrowth and are likely to change future treatment approaches.
research A preliminary study of finasteride in Tourette syndrome
Finasteride reduces Tourette syndrome symptoms, but results may be limited due to potential biases.
research Desferrioxamine treatment of aceruloplasminemia: Long‐term follow‐up
Finasteride may help reduce symptoms in male Tourette syndrome patients.
research Inherited epidermolysis bullosa: clinical and therapeutic aspects
The document concludes that inherited epidermolysis bullosa is a challenging genetic condition requiring multidisciplinary care and new treatments.
research Gata6 promotes hair follicle progenitor cell renewal by genome maintenance during proliferation
Gata6 is important for protecting hair growth cells from DNA damage and keeping normal hair growth.
research Pathological findings in a case of stiff person syndrome with anti‐GAD antibodies
Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in patients with Tourette syndrome.
research Mimicking Hair Disorders by Genetic Manipulation of Organ-Cultured Human Hair Follicles
Scientists can mimic hair disorders by altering genes in lab-grown human hair follicles, but these follicles lack some features of natural ones.
research Ability to cycle despite severe freezing of gait in atypical parkinsonism in Fahr's syndrome
Finasteride significantly reduced tics and obsessive-compulsive symptoms in Tourette syndrome patients.
research Encephalitis lethargica due to Epstein–Barr virus infection
Finasteride may help reduce tic severity in male Tourette syndrome patients.
research 575 An extract of Leontopodium alpinum prolongs anagen phase in human hair follicles ex vivo
Leontopodium alpinum extract may help reduce hair shedding by keeping hair in the growth phase longer.
research Keratins in health and cancer: more than mere epithelial cell markers
Keratins help protect cells, aid in cancer diagnosis, and influence cancer behavior and treatment.
research The hairless gene mutated in congenital hair loss disorders encodes a novel nuclear receptor corepressor
The mutated hairless gene causes hair loss by acting as a new type of corepressor affecting thyroid hormone receptors.
research A role for p75 neurotrophin receptor in the control of apoptosis‐driven hair follicle regression
The p75 neurotrophin receptor is important for hair follicle regression by controlling cell death.
