Research
570-600 / 1000+ results research Effect of a transcriptional inactive or absent vitamin D receptor on beta-cell function and glucose homeostasis in mice
Mice without active or present vitamin D receptors maintain normal blood sugar control and islet gene expression when calcium levels are normal.
research Stress, Hair Growth Control, and the Neuro-Endocrine-Immune Connection
Stress may affect hair growth by influencing hair follicle development and could contribute to hair loss.
research Testicular Steroidogenesis
Genetic defects in testosterone production can cause hormonal and developmental disorders, and more research is needed to understand androgen regulation and develop safer treatments.
research Effects of all-trans retinoic acid on goat dermal papilla cells cultured in vitro
All-trans retinoic acid at high doses harms goat hair growth cells and could be bad for hair growth.
research The Influence of Flightless I: Regeneration versus Wound Healing
Blocking RANK signaling might help treat metastatic melanoma, but more research is needed.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Etiopathogenesis of Alopecia Areata
Alopecia Areata is an autoimmune condition causing hair loss, influenced by genetics, environment, and possibly improved by anti-MIF therapy, with many patients experiencing regrowth within a year.
research Janus kinase inhibitors in dermatology: A systematic review
JAK inhibitors help with skin conditions but need more research on dosing and safety.
research 085 Autoantigen screening in C3H/HeJ mouse model of alopecia areata revealed high antigenicity of melanocyte-associated antigen epitopes
Melanocyte-associated antigens may play a key role in alopecia areata and could be targets for new treatments.
research Human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell-derived exosomes stimulate cutaneous wound healing mediates through TGF-β/Smad signaling pathway
Exosomes from stem cells help wounds heal faster by affecting specific cell signals.
research Recessive Mutation in FAM83G Associated with Palmoplantar Keratoderma and Exuberant Scalp Hair
A mutation in the FAM83G gene is linked to skin and hair abnormalities in two related individuals.
research Inhibitory effect of tianeptine on catagen induction in alopecia areata-like lesions induced by ultrasonic wave stress in mice
Tianeptine, an antidepressant, may prevent stress-induced hair loss in mice.
research 646 SOX4 is essential for melanoma tumorigenesis
SOX4 is crucial for the development of melanoma.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
Genes related to keratin, skin cell differentiation, and immune functions are key in hedgehog skin and spine development.
research NF-κB in biology and targeted therapy: new insights and translational implications
NF-κB signaling is crucial in many diseases and can be targeted for new treatments.
research Evaluation of Atherogenic Indexes in Patients With Lichen Planopilaris: A Case-Control Study
Patients with lichen planopilaris have a higher risk of heart disease.
research Transcriptome analysis reveals the genetic basis underlying the development of skin appendages and immunity in hedgehog (Atelerix albiventris)
The study found that certain genes are important for hedgehog skin appendage development and immunity, with spines possibly evolving for protection and infection resistance.
research Deciphering the function of canonical Wnt signals in development and disease: conditional loss- and gain-of-function mutations of β-catenin in mice
Wnt signaling is vital for cell growth, development, and cancer research.
research Genome-Wide Association Study of Alopecia Areata in Taiwan: The Conflict Between Individuals and Hair Follicles
Certain genetic variants linked to immune response increase the risk of alopecia areata in Taiwanese people.
research SPT6 maintains epidermal homeostasis by inhibiting an NF-κB-positive feedback loop to prevent excessive inflammation
SPT6 prevents excessive skin inflammation by blocking a feedback loop.
research Macrophages as central mediators of sympathetic neuro-immune interplay in autoimmunity
Restoring nerve-macrophage communication may help treat autoimmune diseases.
research Stem Cells in the Skin
Skin stem cells are crucial for maintaining and repairing skin, with potential for treating skin disorders and improving wound healing.
