research Variation in the caprine keratin-associated protein 15-1 (KAP15-1) gene affects cashmere fibre diameter
The KRTAP15-1 gene affects cashmere fiber thickness in goats.
research State-dependent signaling by Cav1.2 regulates hair follicle stem cell function
Cav1.2 affects hair growth and could be a target for hair loss treatments.
research Apoptotic cells represent a dynamic stem cell niche governing proliferation and tissue regeneration
Dying cells can help with faster healing and new hair growth by releasing a growth-promoting molecule.
research Non-canonical dimerization of the androgen receptor and other nuclear receptors: implications for human disease
Mutations in certain receptors can cause diseases and offer new treatment options.
research Riboflavin-responsive glutaryl CoA dehydrogenase deficiency
Taking riboflavin and eating less lysine can help some people with a specific genetic disorder avoid brain damage.
research Polyclonal origin and hair induction ability of dermal papillae in neonatal and adult mouse back skin
Dermal papillae cells, important for hair growth, come from multiple cell lines and can be formed by skin cells, regardless of their origin or hair cycle phase. These cells rarely divide, but their ability to shape tissue may contribute to their efficiency in inducing hair growth.
research Friends Turned Foes: Angiogenic Growth Factors beyond Angiogenesis
Some growth factors, while important for normal body functions, can cause diseases when not regulated properly.
research Skin-specific regulation of SREBP processing and lipid biosynthesis by glycerol kinase 5
A gene called Gk5 controls lipid production in the skin and affects hair growth.
research Advances in medical polyesters for vascular tissue engineering
Polyesters show promise for repairing damaged blood vessels.
research From gene to therapy in spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy: Are we there yet?
Effective treatments for spinal and bulbar muscular atrophy are not yet available; more research is needed.
research Stem cell identification-in vivo lineage analysis versus in vitro isolation and clonal expansion
In vivo lineage labelling is better than in vitro methods for identifying and understanding stem cells.
research Candidate SNP markers of reproductive potential are predicted by a significant change in the affinity of TATA-binding protein for human gene promoters
Certain genetic markers linked to reproductive potential were identified by their impact on a protein's ability to bind to genes.
research The Changing Landscape of Alopecia Areata: The Translational Landscape
New treatments for hair loss are showing promise due to better understanding of genetics and the immune system.
research CD133-positive dermal papilla-derived Wnt ligands regulate postnatal hair growth
Wnt proteins from certain skin cells are crucial for normal hair growth and renewal.
research Hair of the Dog: Identification of a Cis-Regulatory Module Predicted to Influence Canine Coat Composition
Researchers found a genetic region that influences the number of coat layers in dogs.
research In vivo monitoring of hair cycle stages via bioluminescence imaging of hair follicle NG2 cells
Bioluminescence imaging can track hair follicle cells and help study hair regrowth.
research New Biomarkers to Evaluate Hyperandrogenemic Women and Hypogonadal Men
The document concludes that hormonal biomarkers are key for diagnosing hyperandrogenemia in women and hypogonadism in men.
research Complex genetic dependencies among growth and neurological phenotypes in healthy children: Towards deciphering developmental mechanisms
Genetic factors influence growth and brain development in children.
research Compilation of a comprehensive gene panel for systematic assessment of genes that govern an individual’s drug responses
Researchers found that most genes affecting drug responses are not fully covered by commercial SNP chips, suggesting the need for more comprehensive tools to optimize drug selection based on genetics.
research Allopregnanolone is required for prepulse inhibition deficits induced by D1 dopamine receptor activation
Allopregnanolone is needed for certain brain processing issues caused by D1 dopamine receptor activation.
research The androgen receptor gene polyglycine repeat polymorphism is associated with memory performance in healthy Chinese individuals
Certain gene variations are linked to better memory in healthy Chinese women.
research A novel nonsense mutation in the STS gene in a Pakistani family with X-linked recessive ichthyosis: including a very rare case of two homozygous female patients
A new mutation in the STS gene causes X-linked ichthyosis, even in rare female cases.
research Plant Extracts in Skin Care Products
Plant extracts can benefit skin but must be safe and high-quality.
research K15 promoter-driven enforced expression of NKIRAS exhibits tumor suppressive activity against the development of DMBA/TPA-induced skin tumors
NKIRAS2 can suppress certain skin tumors but its effect on cancer varies with context and expression level.
research Besnoitiosis in donkeys: an emerging parasitic disease of equids in Italy
Besnoitiosis, a parasitic disease, has been found in donkeys in Italy and may be more common in Europe than previously thought.
research Mapping of cis-acting expression quantitative trait loci in human scalp hair follicles
Researchers identified genes in scalp hair follicles that may affect hair traits and hair loss.
research A Tale of Two Haplotypes: The EDA2R/AR Intergenic Region is the Most Divergent Genomic Segment between Africans and East Asians in the Human Genome
The most different genetic segment between Africans and East Asians is the EDA2R/AR region, with two main types influenced by population changes and natural selection, and linked to baldness.
research CD4 expression controls epidermal stem cell balance
CD4 is crucial for maintaining skin stem cell balance and aiding wound healing.
