research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research Biology of Hair Growth
Testosterone and dihydrotestosterone affect hair growth, and new techniques like the folliculogram help study it, but fully understanding hair growth is still complex.
research Smad4-dependent desmoglein-4 expression contributes to hair follicle integrity
Smad4 is important for healthy hair follicles because it helps produce a protein needed for hair to stick together and grow.
research Clinical Case Notes. Tamoxifen optic neuropathy
A boy with chromosome 13q deletion syndrome developed eye cancer, a woman with breast cancer lost vision due to a rare side-effect of her treatment, a man's vision worsened after using a hair loss drug, and two rare disorders were discussed. Optical Coherence Tomography is useful for diagnosing and monitoring these conditions.
research Clinical Case Notes. Intraorbital ophthalmic artery aneurysms
Eye exams are crucial for kids with 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause vision loss, Propecia may lead to cataracts, Lipoid Proteinosis causes skin bumps, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Clinical Case Notes. Lipoid proteinosis: a rare disorder with pathognomonic lid lesions
A baby boy with 13q deletion syndrome had eye cancer, a woman's vision improved after stopping a breast cancer drug, a man developed cataracts from using Propecia, and a rare skin disorder called Lipoid Proteinosis was discussed. Also, a tool called OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Clinical Case Notes. Propecia-associated bilateral cataract
Taking Propecia might lead to the development of cataracts.
research Clinical Case Notes. Castleman's disease of the lacrimal gland
The document discusses various eye conditions and their treatments, including a rare eye cancer in a baby, vision loss from a cancer drug, cataracts from a baldness treatment, a rare skin disorder, and a specific type of eye disease diagnosed with a special imaging technique.
research Clinical Case Notes. Malignant melanoma in eviscerated eyeball
Finasteride, often used for hair loss, can potentially cause cataracts.
research Clinical Case Notes. Retinoblastoma, microphthalmia and the chromosome 13q deletion syndrome
The document concludes that careful diagnosis is crucial for chromosome 13q deletion syndrome, tamoxifen can cause reversible eye damage, finasteride may be linked to cataracts, and OCT is useful for diagnosing macular diseases.
research Clinical Case Notes. Optical coherence tomography of adult-onset foveomacular vitelliform dystrophy
Multiple eye conditions were studied, highlighting the importance of various imaging methods for diagnosis, the vision side effects of drugs tamoxifen and Propecia, and the usefulness of optical coherence tomography for diagnosing and monitoring macular and retinal diseases.
research Laboratory and Experimental Trichology
The document concludes that the trichogram is a useful tool for diagnosing hair loss and suggests semi-organ cultures for practical trichological research.
research Discussion: Themes in the Molecular Structure of Hair
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair structure and strength.
research Hair Shaft Dysplasias
Hair shaft dysplasias are abnormal hair conditions that can be inherited or acquired and may signal other health issues, with limited treatment options available.
research Studies of normal moult and of artifically induced regeneration of pelage in peromyscus
Artificially inducing hair regrowth in mice can change the normal pattern and timing of hair growth, with minimal color differences between old and new fur.
research Co-secretion of testosterone and cortisol by a functional adrenocortical oncocytoma
A woman's rare adrenal tumor caused high testosterone and cortisol levels, which normalized after the tumor was removed.
research Disseminated Nonsegmental Vitiligo Associated With Halo Nevi and Premature Gray Hair
A rare combination of halo nevi, nonsegmental vitiligo, and early gray hair can occur together.
research HIRSUTISM
The document explains that hirsutism, often caused by hormonal issues, can be managed with treatment to improve both physical appearance and mental health.
research Smad1 and 5 but Not Smad8 Establish Stem Cell Quiescence Which Is Critical to Transform the Premature Hair Follicle During Morphogenesis Toward the Postnatal State
Smad1 and Smad5 are essential for hair follicle development and stem cell sleepiness.
research Epidermal Polarity Genes in Health and Disease
Disruptions in epidermal polarity genes can lead to skin diseases.
research Hoxc13 mutant mice lack external hair
Hoxc13 gene is essential for hair, nail, and papilla development.
research THE HAIR CYCLE OF THE MOUSE AND ITS IMPORTANCE IN THE STUDY OF SEQUENCES OF EXPERIMENTAL CARCINOGENESIS
Understanding the mouse hair cycle is crucial for cancer research.
research MicroRNA-214 controls skin and hair follicle development by modulating the activity of the Wnt pathway
MicroRNA-214 is important for skin and hair growth because it affects the Wnt pathway.
research Hair Follicle Regeneration Using Grafted Rodent and Human Cells
Grafted rodent and human cells can regenerate hair follicles, but efficiency decreases with age.
research Control of hair follicle cell fate by underlying mesenchyme through a CSL–Wnt5a–FoxN1 regulatory axis
Notch/CSL signaling controls hair follicle differentiation through Wnt5a and FoxN1.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
