Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research Vandetanib-associated alopecia areata in a patient with metastatic medullary thyroid cancer
A cancer patient developed a type of hair loss after starting a cancer drug called vandetanib.
research New small molecules in dermatology: for the autoimmunity, inflammation and beyond
New small molecule drugs show promise in treating complex skin diseases but need more safety research.
research Keratin K15 as a Biomarker of Epidermal Stem Cells
Keratin 15 is not a reliable sole marker for identifying epidermal stem cells because it's found in various cell types.
research Systemic Circulating Leptin – Aiding New Dimension of Immune-Related Skin Carcinogenesis and Lipid Metabolism
High leptin levels may promote skin cancer and inflammation, suggesting potential for leptin-targeted therapies.
research VEGF upregulates VEGF receptor-2 on human outer root sheath cells and stimulates proliferation through ERK pathway
VEGF stimulates hair cell growth and increases growth receptor levels through a specific signaling pathway.
research Expression of E6 and E7 papillomavirus oncogenes in the outer root sheath of hair follicles extends the growth phase and bypasses resting at telogen.
E6/E7 oncogenes in hair follicles cause continuous hair growth by skipping the resting phase.
research The Dickkopf Protein Family in Non-Neoplastic Disorders: Emerging Roles and Therapeutic Targeting
DKK proteins could help diagnose and treat various non-cancerous diseases.
research Direct cellular reprogramming enables development of viral T antigen–driven Merkel cell carcinoma in mice
Scientists made a mouse model of a serious skin cancer by changing skin cells with a virus and a specific gene, which is similar to the disease in humans.
research Crosstalk between vimentin and keratins in viral infection: Implications across the viral life cycle
Vimentin and keratin help viruses spread and could be targets for antiviral treatments.
research Signal Peptide-CUB-EGF-like Domain-Containing Protein 3 (SCUBE3): From Molecule to Therapy
SCUBE3 is a potential target for cancer and alopecia treatment but is challenging to target due to its varied roles.

Targeting protein S-palmitoylation could lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Consumption of fish oil high-fat diet induces murine hair loss via epidermal fatty acid binding protein in skin macrophages
Eating a high-fat fish oil diet caused mice to lose hair due to a specific immune cell activity in the skin linked to a protein called E-FABP.
research Poly(rC) binding protein 2 acts as a negative regulator of IRES-mediated translation of Hr mRNA
A protein called PCBP2 controls the production of a hair growth protein by interacting with its genetic message and is linked to hair loss when this control is disrupted.
research Co-Expression Pattern of Artemis Serine 516 Phosphorylation with Indicators Involving in Differentiation, Proliferation and Apoptosis of Human Anagen Hair Follicles: An Immunofluorescence Double-Staining Study
