research 461: THE PROFIBROGENIC ROLE OF NEUTROPHIL EXTRACELLULAR TRAPS IN STENOTIC CROHN'S DISEASE: A NEW ANTIFIBROTIC TARGET?
Targeting NETs may help reduce fibrosis in Crohn's 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 Phytochemicals as emerging therapeutic agents for alopecia treatment
Plant-based chemicals may help hair growth and prevent hair loss but need more research to compete with current treatments.
research 973 Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP4)-positive fibroblasts are responsible for secretion of pro-fibrotic matrix proteins in the human skin
DPP4-positive fibroblasts play a major role in producing proteins that lead to skin fibrosis.
research 976 Knockout of mTOR/Akt inhibitor REDD1 results in hair cycle-independent dermal adipose expansion by promoting adipocyte differentiation
Removing REDD1 in mice increases skin fat by making fat cells larger and more numerous.
research 977 The wound healing of fractional photothermolysis mimicks scarless healing with minimal myofibroblast activation
Fractional photothermolysis helps wounds heal with minimal scarring.
research 975 Antifibrogenic activities of novel vitamin D3 analogs are dependent on VDR expression in human fibroblasts
New vitamin D3 forms need the vitamin D receptor to reduce fibrosis in human cells.
research 972 The ATP-dependent chromatin remodeler BRG1 controls epidermal keratinocytes migration during human cutaneous wound healing
BRG1 is essential for skin cells to move and heal wounds properly.
research Dermal niche signaling and epidermal stem cells
Skin health and repair depend on the signals between skin stem cells and their surrounding cells.
research Cellular Plasticity in Cutaneous Wound Healing
Cells can change to help heal wounds better.
research 876 Imaging nanoscale changes in desmosome protein organization
Desmoglein 3 organization in cell connections changes without calcium, affecting cell adhesion.
research 875 A novel animal model of Desmoglein 1 (Dsg1) deficiency reveals an essential role for Dsg1 in epidermal barrier formation
Dsg1 is essential for maintaining a healthy skin barrier in mice.
research 879 IL-9 mediated human primary keratinocytes invasion is dependent on MLC controlled contractility and independent of MMP activity
IL-9 increases skin cell movement but decreases their ability to invade, and this effect is controlled by cell contractility, not by MMPs.
research 877 Integration of magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy for exploring the mechanobiology of keratinocyte cell-cell and cell-matrix anchoring junctions
The conclusion is that a new method combining magnetic tweezers and traction force microscopy may help understand skin cell interactions and diseases.
research 874 Elevated expression of osteopontin splice variants in nonmelanoma skin cancer compared to normal skin and adult keratinocytes
Nonmelanoma skin cancers have higher levels of certain osteopontin variants than normal skin.
research Graves’ disease: An unusual cause of pediatric alopecia areata
Graves' disease can cause hair loss in children and should be considered when treating pediatric alopecia areata.
research 307 Dermatologic toxicities associated with chronic gamma-secretase inhibitor treatment for desmoid tumor
Most patients experienced mild to moderate skin problems during a trial for a desmoid tumor treatment.
research Peer Review #1 of "Induced pluripotent stem cells from human hair follicle keratinocytes as a potential source for in vitro hair follicle cloning (v0.1)"
Human hair follicle cells can be turned into stem cells that may help clone hair for treating hair loss or burns.
research Hair, Cutaneous Homeostasis and Stem Cell Functions
Proteins like aPKC and PDGF-AA, substances like adenosine and ATP, and adipose-derived stem cells all play important roles in hair growth and health, and could potentially be used to treat hair loss and skin conditions.
research Prostate cancer risk and recurrence: the role of nutrition and clinical aspects
Higher cholesterol levels increase aggressive prostate cancer risk.
research An Investigation of Keratin 15 Function by Small Interfering Ribonucleic Acid Technology
