research In vivo transcriptional governance of hair follicle stem cells by canonical Wnt regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Local circadian clock gates cell cycle progression of transient amplifying cells during regenerative hair cycling
Hair grows faster in the morning and is more vulnerable to damage from radiation due to the internal clock in hair follicle cells.
research Possible Therapeutic Effects of Ozone Mixture on Hypoxia in Tumor Development
Ozone therapy might improve cancer treatment and reduce its side effects.
research Safety aspects of androgen treatment with 5α-dihydrotestosterone
DHT is a strong androgen that may pose less risk to the prostate compared to testosterone.

ISCK03 stops melanin production in human melanoma cells and lightens skin color in mice and guinea pigs.
research Androgen receptor: A promising therapeutic target in breast cancer
The androgen receptor is a promising target for breast cancer treatment, especially in triple-negative cases, but more research is needed for personalized therapies.
research Genetic variants in pachyonychia congenita-associated keratins increase susceptibility to tooth decay
Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.
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 Cutaneous gain-of-function mutation of LRIG3 leads to alopecia by upregulation of ERBB, PI3K/AKT, NOTCH1 signaling pathways
Overexpression of LRIG3 in skin causes hair loss.
research Analysis of hidradenitis suppurativa–linked mutations in four genes and the effects of PSEN1-P242LfsX11 on cytokine and chemokine expression in macrophages
