research Development and progression of alopecia in the vitamin D receptor null mouse
Mice without the vitamin D receptor gene lose hair due to disrupted hair follicle cycles.
research In vivo penetration of bare and lipid-coated silica nanoparticles across the human stratum corneum
Lipid-coated silica nanoparticles penetrate human skin more deeply than bare silica nanoparticles.
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 The Critical Roles of Serum/Glucocorticoid-Regulated Kinase 3 (SGK3) in the Hair Follicle Morphogenesis and Homeostasis
SGK3 is essential for proper hair growth and health.
research Heterogeneity of neural crest-derived melanocytes
Melanocytes are diverse cells important for pigmentation and skin health, influenced by genetics and environment.
research Analysis of gene expression patterns and levels in maize hybrids and their parents
Maize hybrids show better early growth due to complex gene interactions from their parent strains.
research In Silico Analysis of the Age-Dependent Evolution of the Transcriptome of Mouse Skin Stem Cells
The research found that the gene activity in mouse skin stem cells changes significantly as they age.
research Identification of a recurrent nonsense mutation in HR gene responsible for atrichia with papular lesions in two Kashmiri families
A mutation in the HR gene causes a rare form of irreversible hair loss in two Kashmiri families. Whole exome sequencing is effective for finding such mutations.
research Structural studies of two solid steroid compounds
Androsterone and finasteride have different solid forms, with new findings correcting previous errors and identifying a new form.
research Past and Future Strategies for GPCR Deorphanization
Finding functions for unknown GPCRs is hard but key for making new drugs.
research The Rho GTPase exchange factor Vav2 promotes extensive age-dependent rewiring of the hair follicle stem cell transcriptome
Vav2 changes how hair follicle stem cells' genes work as they age, which might improve regeneration but also raise cancer risk.
research Genome scan for signatures of adaptive evolution in wild African goat (capra nubiana)
Wild African goats have genetic adaptations for surviving harsh desert conditions.
research Mapping Human Skin: One Sequenced Cell at a Time
The article concludes that creating a detailed map of normal human skin at the single-cell level is important.
research The importance of basonuclin 2 in adult mice and its relation to basonuclin 1
Basonuclin 2 is vital for the development of facial bones, hair follicles, and male germ cells in adult mice, and its absence can lead to dwarfism and abnormal follicles.
research Role of the vitamin D receptor in hair follicle biology
Vitamin D receptor is essential for hair growth and preventing hair loss.
research The Autoimmune Regulator (AIRE), Which Is Defective in Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathy-Candidiasis-Ectodermal Dystrophy Patients, Is Expressed in Human Epidermal and Follicular Keratinocytes and Associates With the Intermediate Filament Protein Cytokeratin 17
AIRE protein, defective in APECED patients, is found in skin and hair cells and interacts with cytokeratin 17.
research CPK1 activates CNGCs through phosphorylation for Ca2+ signaling to promote root hair growth in Arabidopsis
CPK1 helps root hair growth in Arabidopsis by activating channels for calcium signaling.
research Integrated analysis of lncRNAs and mRNAs by RNA-Seq in secondary hair follicle development and cycling (anagen, catagen and telogen) of Jiangnan cashmere goat (Capra hircus)
lncRNAs play a key role in hair follicle development, affecting cashmere quality and yield.
research Selection signatures of wool color in Gangba sheep revealed by genome-wide SNP discovery
Wool color in Gangba sheep is influenced by multiple genes and genetic mechanisms.
research Resequencing and Signatures of Selective Scans Point to Candidate Genetic Variants for Hair Length Traits in Long-Haired and Normal-Haired Tianzhu White Yak
The research found specific genes that may cause longer hair in Tianzhu White Yak.
research Drivers of plateau adaptability in cashmere goats revealed by genomic and transcriptomic analyses
The study found that genetic differences related to hair growth and other traits help cashmere goats adapt to high-altitude environments.
research Selection signatures for fiber production in commercial species: A review
Genomic research can help improve the quality and production of natural fibers in animals.
research High-throughput Sequencing to Identify Monogenic Etiologies in a Preselected Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Cohort
Some women with PCOS have rare genetic variants linked to the condition.
research Vitamin D and the skin
research Exploring the possibility of predicting human head hair greying from DNA using whole-exome and targeted NGS data
Hair greying is mainly influenced by age, with genetics playing a smaller role.
research Ligand‐Independent Actions of the Vitamin D Receptor: More Questions Than Answers
The vitamin D receptor can act without its usual activating molecule, affecting hair growth and skin cancer, but its full range of actions is not well understood.
research Iron Metabolism of the Skin: Recycling versus Release
