research Pigmentation and Pregnancy
Most skin changes during pregnancy are harmless and moles don't significantly change, but many women experience pigmentation changes due to hormones and sun exposure.
research Targeted expression of SV40 T antigen in the hair follicle of transgenic mice produces an aberrant hair phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Lipin 1 Gene Polymorphisms in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Certain gene variations might help protect against insulin resistance and glucose intolerance in people with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome.
research Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome—Current Status and Prospects for Gene Therapy Treatment
Gene therapy has potential as a future treatment for Hutchinson-Gilford progeria syndrome.
research Randomized clinical trial of astaxanthin supplement on serum inflammatory markers and ER stress‐apoptosis gene expression in PBMCs of women with PCOS
Astaxanthin may reduce inflammation in women with PCOS, but doesn't significantly improve symptoms.
research Marie Unna hereditary hypotrichosis caused by a novel mutation in the human hairless transcript
A new mutation in the HR gene causes hair loss in a specific family.
research Altered expression of intracellular Toll-like receptors in peripheral blood mononuclear cells from patients with alopecia areata
Increased Toll-like receptors in blood cells may contribute to alopecia areata and could be a target for new treatments.
research Advances in genetic and molecular understanding of Omenn syndrome - implications for the future
Newborn screening and gene therapy are expected to improve outcomes for Omenn syndrome patients.
research Psoriasis is characterized by deficient negative immune regulation compared to transient delayed-type hypersensitivity reactions
Psoriasis may be chronic because it lacks certain immune system controls that prevent overreaction.
research Human ClinicalPhenotype Associated with FOXN1 Mutations
FOXN1 mutations cause severe immunodeficiency, hair loss, nail issues, and thymus defects.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research Angelica sinensis promotes cortical regeneration of the thymus in mice with acute thymic involution induced by short-term rapamycin treatment
Angelica sinensis helps repair and regenerate the thymus in mice.
research Abstracts from the 4th Annual Student Medical Summit
The document concludes that more research is needed to reduce frequent hospital visits, addiction medicine education improves with specific training, early breast cancer surgery findings are emerging, nipple smears are not very accurate, surgery for older melanoma patients doesn't extend life, a genetic condition in infants can often be treated with one drug, doctors are inconsistent with blood clot medication, a certain gene may protect against cell damage, muscle gene overexpression affects many other genes, and some mitochondrial genes are less active in mice with tumors.
research Tissue engineering of skin and regenerative medicine for wound care
Current skin substitutes help heal severe burns but don't fully replicate natural skin features.
research STUB1 mutations in autosomal recessive ataxias – evidence for mutation-specific clinical heterogeneity
Different STUB1 gene mutations cause varied symptoms in autosomal recessive ataxias.
research Two mutations at KRT74 and EDAR synergistically drive the fine-wool production in Chinese sheep
Two mutations in KRT74 and EDAR genes cause sheep to have finer wool.
research A kindred with mutant IKAROS and autoimmunity
A mutation in the IKZF1 gene causes immune system overactivity, linked to autoimmune diseases like lupus.
research Fetal alpha 5-reductase Val89Leu mutation is associated with late miscarriage
A certain mutation in the fetal alpha 5-reductase gene is linked to a higher risk of late miscarriage.
research Estudo da diversidade dos genes MC1R e SLC24A5 em populações globais: avaliação de aspectos evolutivos e ambientais
SLC24A5 shows a clear selective sweep, but no link to UV radiation intensity.
research Wnt Signaling Is Deranged in Asthmatic Bronchial Epithelium and Fibroblasts
Wnt signaling is disrupted in asthma, affecting cell growth and inflammation.
research Ritlecitinib and brepocitinib demonstrate significant improvement in scalp alopecia areata biomarkers
Two drugs, ritlecitinib and brepocitinib, improved scalp hair loss condition markers.
research FOXN1 Italian founder mutation in Indian family: Implications in prenatal diagnosis
A rare genetic mutation found in an Indian family can be detected through prenatal screening.
research Dermal T cell immunity and key regulatory signaling pathways: Implications in immune-mediated alopecia and hair regeneration
Understanding T cells and signaling pathways can lead to better treatments for hair loss.
research SOX11 and SOX4 drive the reactivation of an embryonic gene program during murine wound repair
SOX11 and SOX4 help skin cells act like embryonic cells to heal wounds in mice.
research Molecular Basis for Hair Loss in Mice Carrying a Novel Nonsense Mutation (Hrrh-R) in the Hairless Gene (Hr)
A new mutation in the hairless gene causes hair loss and skin wrinkling in mice.
research A mouse with bad hair and poor taste
A defective gene causes hair loss and taste insensitivity in BTBR mice.
