360-390 / 1000+ resultsresearch Folliculotropic Mycosis Fungoides with Skewed T-cell Receptor CDR3 Motif: Suggestive of Lipid-antigen Selection?
Lipid-antigen stimulation may play a role in folliculotropic mycosis fungoides.
research The atypical ‘hippocampal’ glutamate receptor coupled to phospholipase D that controls stretch‐sensitivity in primary mechanosensory nerve endings is homomeric purely metabotropic GluK2
A special receptor in sensory nerve endings helps control how they respond to stretching.
research Targeted Skin Overexpression of the Mineralocorticoid Receptor in Mice Causes Epidermal Atrophy, Premature Skin Barrier Formation, Eye Abnormalities, and Alopecia
Overexpressing the mineralocorticoid receptor in mouse skin causes skin thinning, early skin barrier development, eye issues, and hair loss.
research Effect of Tribulus Terrestris Extract of Different Dosings on Melanocortin-1 Receptor Expression in Mouse Hair Follicles
Higher doses of Tribulus terrestris extract increase MC-1R expression in mouse hair follicles.
research The TRPM5 Antagonist Triphenylphosphine Oxide Increases Sebaceous Lipogenesis and Modulates Immune Phenotype of Human Sebocytes in a TRPM5‐Independent Manner
Triphenylphosphine oxide can increase oil production and reduce inflammation in skin cells without affecting TRPM5.
research Thyroid hormone receptor β1 is expressed in the human hair follicle
Thyroid hormone receptor β1 is found in human hair follicles and helps them survive.
research Two novel MBTPS2 missense mutations impairing S2P proteolytic activity lead to IFAP syndrome with new phenotypic anomalies
New mutations in MBTPS2 reduce its function and cause IFAP syndrome with unusual symptoms.
research eLife assessment: Touch receptor end-organ innervation and function require sensory neuron expression of the transcription factor Meis2
Meis2 is essential for touch sensation and proper nerve connection to touch receptors in certain skin areas of mice.
research Paracrine TGF-β Signaling Counterbalances BMP-Mediated Repression in Hair Follicle Stem Cell Activation
TGF-β2 helps activate hair follicle stem cells by counteracting BMP signals.
research Recurrent MBTPS2 variant c.970+5G>A in IFAP syndrome: a mutational hotspot
This study reports on a Pakistani family with three individuals affected by IFAP syndrome type I, linked to the recurrent MBTPS2 splice-site variant c.970+5G>A. This variant has also been identified in Chinese and Argentinian families. Haplotype analyses indicate that this is a recurrent mutational hotspot rather than a result of a founder effect. The study also notes variability in phenotypic severity among the families, suggesting the presence of additional modifying factors.
research The Opioid Receptor Influences Circadian Rhythms in Human Keratinocytes through the β-Arrestin Pathway
Delta-opioid receptors affect skin cell circadian rhythms, possibly impacting wound healing and cancer.
research 266 Myristoylphorbol Acetate (MPA) Enhances Metastasis Via Up-regulation of Eph A2 Transcription Activity
