research The role of WNT10B in physiology and disease: A 10-year update
WNT10B is important for body functions and linked to diseases like osteoporosis, obesity, and cancer.
research LB1081 Three-dimensional imaging of tight junction-network across multiple layers of human epidermis by array tomography using backscattered electron-mode scanning electron microscopy
The study found that tight junctions reach the top layer of the skin's stratum granulosum, not just the second top layer as previously thought.
research FOXN1 deficient nude severe combined immunodeficiency
FOXN1 gene mutations cause a rare, severe immune disease treatable with cell or tissue transplants.
research K6irs1, K6irs2, K6irs3, and K6irs4 Represent the Inner-Root-Sheath-Specific Type II Epithelial Keratins of the Human Hair Follicle1
Four specific keratins in hair follicles help understand hair structure and function.
