research The Role of Pannexin 3 in Bone Biology
Pannexin 3 is important for bone formation and the development of bone cells.
research Fibromodulin-Deficiency Alters Temporospatial Expression Patterns of Transforming Growth Factor-β Ligands and Receptors during Adult Mouse Skin Wound Healing
Mice lacking fibromodulin have disrupted healing patterns, leading to abnormal skin repair and scarring.
research The influence of sulfur and hair growth on stable isotope diet estimates for grizzly bears
Sulfur slightly improved diet estimates for grizzly bears, but hair growth timing varied, affecting results.
research Role for the Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor in Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Targeting EGFR may help reduce hair loss from chemotherapy.
research A variant of the glucocorticoid receptor gene is not associated with adrenal androgen excess in women with polycystic ovary syndrome
The N363S gene variant does not cause higher adrenal androgen levels in women with polycystic ovary syndrome.
research The evaluation and treatment of androgen excess
High androgen levels can cause excessive hair growth and may indicate serious health issues, including heart disease and fertility problems.
research Alteration of Skin Wound Healing in Keratinocyte-Specific Mediator Complex Subunit 1 Null Mice
MED1 affects skin wound healing differently in young and old mice.
research Highly Upregulated Lhx2 in the Foxn1−/− Nude Mouse Phenotype Reflects a Dysregulated and Expanded Epidermal Stem Cell Niche
The Foxn1(-/-) nude mouse shows disrupted and expanded skin stem cell areas due to high Lhx2 levels.
research ACOG Practice Bulletin No. 108: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
The bulletin provides guidelines for diagnosing and managing PCOS, suggesting weight loss, hormonal contraceptives, and diabetes screening, with clomiphene for infertility and various treatments for excess hair.
research Androgen Therapy in Women: A Reappraisal: An Endocrine Society Clinical Practice Guideline
The guidelines advise against using testosterone and DHEA in women for most conditions due to safety and effectiveness concerns, but suggest considering testosterone for postmenopausal women with low sexual desire.
research Hair follicle aging is driven by transepidermal elimination of stem cells via COL17A1 proteolysis
Hair loss and aging are caused by the breakdown of a key protein in hair stem cells.
research Timing of expression of the core clock gene Bmal1 influences its effects on aging and survival
The timing of when the gene Bmal1 is active affects aging and survival, with its absence during development, not adulthood, leading to premature aging.
research The Chicken Frizzle Feather Is Due to an α-Keratin (KRT75) Mutation That Causes a Defective Rachis
A mutation in the KRT75 gene causes frizzle feathers in chickens.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Epoxy Fatty Acids and Inhibition of the Soluble Epoxide Hydrolase Selectively Modulate GABA Mediated Neurotransmission to Delay Onset of Seizures
EETs can delay seizures by affecting GABA activity, offering potential new treatments for seizures.
research Physiological Regeneration of Skin Appendages and Implications for Regenerative Medicine
The document concludes that understanding hair and feather regeneration can help develop new regenerative medicine strategies.
research The Inflammatory Caspases-1 and -11 Mediate the Pathogenesis of Dermatitis in Sharpin-Deficient Mice
Certain proteins, caspases-1 and -11, are important in the early development of skin inflammation in mice.
research Targeted Disruption of Stat3 Reveals a Major Role for Follicular Stem Cells in Skin Tumor Initiation
Disrupting Stat3 in hair follicle stem cells greatly reduces skin tumor formation.
research Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) and Other Androgen Excess–Related Conditions: Can Changes in Dietary Intake Make a Difference?
Dietary changes, including weight loss and a balanced diet, are important for managing PCOS, especially in overweight women.
research Inhibition of Human Steroid 5β-Reductase (AKR1D1) by Finasteride and Structure of the Enzyme-Inhibitor Complex
Finasteride helps treat hair loss and prostate enlargement by blocking a specific enzyme.
research Heparan Sulfate Regulates Hair Follicle and Sebaceous Gland Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
Heparan sulfate is important for hair growth, preventing new hair formation in mature skin, and controlling oil gland development.
research Selective Ablation of Ctip2/Bcl11b in Epidermal Keratinocytes Triggers Atopic Dermatitis-Like Skin Inflammatory Responses in Adult Mice
Removing Ctip2 in skin cells causes skin inflammation similar to atopic dermatitis.
research Possible contribution of chronobiology to cardiovascular health
Understanding and tracking our body's natural daily rhythms could help improve heart health.
research Safe Selection of Genetically Manipulated Human Primary Keratinocytes with Very High Growth Potential Using CD24
Researchers found a safe and effective way to pick genetically modified skin cells with high growth potential using CD24.
research Expression of Kruppel-Like Factor KLF4 in Mouse Hair Follicle Stem Cells Contributes to Cutaneous Wound Healing
KLF4 is important for maintaining skin stem cells and helps heal wounds.
