research Insertional mutation of the hairless locus on mouse Chromosome 14
A gene mutation in mice causes permanent hair loss and skin issues.
research Biochemical and Structural Characteristics, Gene Regulation, Physiological, Pathological and Clinical Features of Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase as a Multifunctional Lipocalin
Lipocalin-Type Prostaglandin D2 Synthase (L-PGDS) is a protein that plays many roles in the body, including sleep regulation, pain management, food intake, and protection against harmful substances. It also affects fat metabolism, glucose intolerance, cell maturation, and is involved in various diseases like diabetes, cancer, and arthritis. It can influence sex organ development and embryonic cell differentiation, and its levels can be used as a diagnostic marker for certain conditions.
research Molecular modeling of hair keratin/peptide complex: Using MM‐PBSA calculations to describe experimental binding results
Electrostatic interactions mainly stabilize the binding of peptides to hair keratin.
research Visible characteristics and structural modifications relating to enlarged facial pores
Enlarged facial pores are denser, more contrasted, and linked to changes in skin structure and hair follicles.
research Hair follicle morphogenesis and epidermal homeostasis in we/we wal/wal mice with postnatal alopecia
The we/we wal/wal mice have defects in hair growth and skin layer formation, causing hair loss, useful for understanding alopecia.
research The Scientific Legacy of Stephen Rothman
