450-480 / 1000+ results research Improved 2α-Hydroxylation Efficiency of Steroids by CYP154C2 Using Structure-Guided Rational Design
Mutants of CYP154C2 enzyme significantly improved steroid conversion efficiency.
research Absence of vitamin D receptor (VDR)‐mediated PPARγ suppression causes alopecia in VDR‐null mice
Lack of vitamin D receptor causes hair loss in mice by allowing certain genes to overactivate.
research Acute sensitivity of the oral mucosa to oncogenic K‐ras
Oncogenic K-ras causes rapid cancerous changes in the mouth's lining.
research Environmental Influences on the Hair Follicle
Environmental factors like temperature and nutrition affect hair growth, with humans showing seasonal hair growth differences.
research Interleukin 6 and STAT3 regulate p63 isoform expression in keratinocytes during regeneration
The conclusion is that the IL-6/STAT3 activation affects p63 expression in healing wounds, which may help in hair follicle regeneration.
research A function for Rac1 in the terminal differentiation and pigmentation of hair
Rac1 is essential for proper hair structure and color.
research A non-invasive study of alopecia in Japanese macaques Macaca fuscata
About 20% of Japanese macaques had head alopecia, and stress and environment might cause hair loss.
research Evidence for multiple, developmentally regulated isoforms of Ptprq on hair cells of the inner ear
Ptprq has multiple forms that change during inner ear development.
research ACKR2 limits skin fibrosis and hair loss through IFN‐β
ACKR2 helps prevent skin scarring and hair loss by controlling inflammation.
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 STIM1 R304W in mice causes subgingival hair growth and an increased fraction of trabecular bone
The STIM1 R304W mutation in mice leads to bone changes and teeth hair growth.
research Antifungal and Antibacterial Activity of the Essential Oil of Chamaecyparis Lawsoniana from Spain
The essential oil from Chamaecyparis lawsoniana has strong antibacterial and antifungal effects, especially against yeast and Gram-positive bacteria.
research Fatal autoimmunity results from the conditional deletion of Snai2 and Snai3
Deleting Snai2 and Snai3 causes fatal autoimmunity.
research Identification and Characterisation of a Novel Pathogenic Mutation in the Human Lipodystrophy Gene AGPAT2
A new mutation in the AGPAT2 gene causes severe fat tissue loss and related health issues by reducing the protein's levels.
research Disruption of anthrax toxin receptor 1 in pigs leads to a rare disease phenotype and protection from senecavirus A infection
Removing anthrax toxin receptor 1 in pigs prevents Senecavirus A infection and causes a rare disease similar to GAPO syndrome.
research Staphylococcus aureus Enters Hair Follicles Using Triacylglycerol Lipases Preserved through the Genus Staphylococcus
Lipases, especially gehB, are crucial for Staphylococcus aureus to enter and colonize hair follicles.
research Characterization of a mouse Scube3 reporter line
Mouse Scube3 affects teeth, tongue, vibrissae, and eye development, but not facial structure or limb growth.
research Progranulin, a secreted tumorigenesis and dementia-related factor, regulates mouse hair growth
Progranulin overexpression leads to shorter, thinner hair and increased cell death in mouse hair follicles.
research Homozygous K5Cre transgenic mice have wavy hair and accelerated malignant progression in a murine model of skin carcinogenesis
Homozygous K5Cre transgenic mice have wavy hair and faster cancer progression.
research Sox13 is a novel early marker for hair follicle development
Sox13 is a useful marker for early hair follicle development but not essential for hair growth.
research The Arabidopsis Receptor-like Kinase CAP1 Promotes Shoot Growth under Ammonium Stress
CAP1 helps Arabidopsis plants grow better under ammonium stress.
research Cortisol levels in blood and hair of unanesthetized grizzly bears (Ursus arctos) following intravenous cosyntropin injection
Injecting cosyntropin into grizzly bears increases blood cortisol but doesn't change hair cortisol levels.
research Combinatorial expression of cell cycle regulators is more suitable for immortalization than oncogenic methods in dermal papilla cells
Using a combination of specific cell cycle regulators is better for safely keeping hair root cells alive indefinitely compared to cancer-related methods.
research Mutations in Homocysteine Metabolism Genes Increase Keratin N-Homocysteinylation and Damage in Mice
Genetic mutations that disrupt homocysteine breakdown lead to increased damage in mouse hair keratin.
