540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch Colourless side of the nude mutation: Foxn1 and hair pigmentation
Foxn1 is essential for hair pigmentation by directing pigment transfer to hair cells.
research Connexin mutations in human disease
Connexin mutations can cause various diseases like hearing loss and skin disorders.
research The mouse hairy ears mutation exhibits an extended growth (anagen) phase in hair follicles and altered Hoxc gene expression in the ears
The mouse hairy ears mutation causes longer ear hair due to changes in gene expression.
research The ophthalmological complications of targeted agents in cancer therapy: what do we need to know as ophthalmologists?
Cancer treatments can cause various eye problems, so eye doctors should know how to diagnose and treat these early.
research Novel adenosine triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette, subfamily A, member 12 (ABCA12) mutations associated with congenital ichthyosiform erythroderma
New ABCA12 gene mutations were linked to a skin condition with scaling and hair loss, and a treatment helped with hair loss in a related case.
research Brain-derived nerve factor and neurotrophins in androgenetic alopecia
Lower growth factors linked to balding in androgenetic alopecia.
research Alopecia in IL-10-deficient mouse pups is c-kit-dependent and can be triggered by iron deficiency
Hair loss in certain young mice is linked to a specific gene and can be caused by lack of iron.
research Clinical markers of androgenicity in acne vulgaris
Acne severity in women may not be linked to increased male hormone indicators like excess body hair, menstrual irregularities, or hair loss.
research Registrars’ Symposium: Summaries of Papers
Lower adrenal hormone levels may cause hair loss in postmenopausal women, certain patterns help diagnose nail cancer, and a gene variant linked to higher skin cancer risk in kidney transplant patients suggests monitoring folate levels.
research The Feasibility and Utility of Hair Follicle Sampling To Measure FMRP and FMR1 mRNA in Children With or Without Fragile X Syndrome
Hair follicle sampling is a feasible method to measure FMRP and FMR1 mRNA levels in children.
research Parathyroid hormone linked to a collagen binding domain promotes hair growth in a mouse model of chemotherapy-induced alopecia in a dose-dependent manner
A hormone linked to collagen helps hair grow back in mice after chemotherapy, and may also prevent bone loss.
research Autoimmunity: Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease causing hair loss, treatable with immune-modulating drugs, and linked to genetics.
research Identification of factors contributing to phenotypic divergence via quantitative image analyses of autosomal recessive woolly hair/hypotrichosis with homozygous c.736T>ALIPH mutation
Different hair fiber development might explain why hair loss severity varies in patients with a specific genetic mutation, and treatments that thicken hair could help.
research Polycomb repressive complex 2 in adult hair follicle stem cells is dispensable for hair regeneration
Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 is not needed for hair regeneration.
research Sebaceous carcinoma arising at a chronic candidiasis skin lesion of a patient with keratitis-ichthyosis-deafness (KID) syndrome
A man with KID syndrome developed a rare cancer in a long-term skin infection.
research Late presentation of myotonic dystrophy
Myotonic dystrophy should be considered in patients with hair thinning, and genetic counseling is important.
research Sodium alginate cross-linked hydroxypropyl methylcellulose/hydroxyapatite nano biomaterial mediated with zinc to promote bone tissue healing
The zinc-doped nanocomposite helps heal bone tissue effectively.
research Unruly hair
The document concludes that unruly hair can be congenital or acquired, often lacks specific treatments, and can be managed with oils and short hairstyles.
research Towards Dissecting the Pathogenesis of Retinoid-Induced Hair Loss: All-Trans Retinoic Acid Induces Premature Hair Follicle Regression (Catagen) by Upregulation of Transforming Growth Factor-β2 in the Dermal Papilla
All-trans retinoic acid causes hair loss by increasing TGF-β2 in hair follicle cells.
research Tumour regression predicts higher risk of sentinel node involvement in thin cutaneous melanomas
Shrinking skin cancer increases the chance of cancer in nearby lymph nodes.
research Low sex-hormone binding globulin levels in young women with diffuse hair loss
Young women with diffuse hair loss may have low SHBG levels, which could lead to more active testosterone and contribute to their hair loss.
research Androgen Deprivation Therapy in Prostate Cancer: Focusing on Sexual Side Effects
Androgen Deprivation Therapy for prostate cancer often reduces sexual function but intermittent therapy may be more tolerable.
research Adverse cutaneous reactions to chemotherapeutic agents and cytokine therapy
Chemotherapy and cytokine therapy can cause various skin reactions, including hair loss and hypersensitivity.
research High Auxin and High Phosphate Impact on RSL2 Expression and ROS-Homeostasis Linked to Root Hair Growth in Arabidopsis thaliana
High levels of auxin increase root hair growth by activating RSL2 and producing ROS, while high phosphate levels hinder growth by repressing RSL2.
research Molecular genetics of androgen insensitivity
Mutations in the androgen receptor gene cause different levels of androgen insensitivity, making it hard to create simple tests for the condition.
research Localisation and regulation of cholesterol transporters in the human hair follicle: mapping changes across the hair cycle
Cholesterol transport in hair follicles decreases from growth to regression phase.
research Region-specific reversal of epidermal planar polarity in the rosette fancy mouse
Hair follicles in the back of the rosette fancy mouse have reversed orientations due to a gene mutation.
research Woolly Antics between the Sheaths
Lipase H is important for hair follicle function and shaping hair fibers.
research Microencapsulated cell tracking
Microencapsulation helps protect and track therapeutic cells, showing promise for treating various diseases, but more work is needed to improve the technology.
