20 / 1000+ resultsresearch FOXN1: A Master Regulator Gene of Thymic Epithelial Development Program
This review summarizes existing knowledge on the role of FOXN1 as a key regulator of thymic epithelial cell lineage and function, reporting no new experimental results.
research Alopecia Areata Associated With Myasthenia Gravis And Thymoma: A Case Of Alopecia With Marked Improvement Following Thymectomy And High-Level Prednisolone Administration
In this case report, a 57-year-old Japanese woman with alopecia areata, associated with myasthenia gravis and thymoma, showed significant improvement after undergoing thymectomy and receiving high doses of glucocorticosteroids.
research Can Thyme Oil Be an Alternative Treatment for Human Demodicosis?
This study found that a 1% concentration of thyme oil was more effective at killing Demodex mites in vitro than higher concentrations of tea tree and sage oils, suggesting thyme oil may have therapeutic potential for ocular demodicosis.
research Microenvironmental Reprogramming of Thymic Epithelial Cells to Skin Multipotent Stem Cells
Scientists turned rat thymus cells into stem cells that can help repair skin and hair.
research DKK1 Mediated Inhibition of Wnt Signaling in Postnatal Mice Leads to Loss of TEC Progenitors and Thymic Degeneration
This study demonstrates that canonical Wnt signaling is crucial for maintaining thymic epithelial microenvironments in postnatal thymus, possibly by affecting TEC progenitor cells.
research Human FOXN1 Deficiency Is Associated with Alpha Beta Double-Negative and FoxP3 Positive T-Cell Expansions That Are Distinctly Modulated upon Thymic Transplantation
This study found that despite the persistence of aberrant double-negative T-cells, functional immune-competence was maintained after thymic transplantation in a patient with a rare FOXN1 mutation.
research Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin in Cutaneous Immune-Mediated Diseases
This review discusses the role of the long form of thymic stromal lymphopoietin in cutaneous immune-mediated diseases and reports no new results.
research Morphogenesis and Maintenance of the 3D Thymic Medulla and Prevention of Nude Skin Phenotype Require FoxN1 in Pre- and Post-Natal K14 Epithelium
This study found that deleting FoxN1 in specific thymic epithelial cells disrupted the 3D thymic structure and led to age-dependent formation of 2D epithelial cysts, highlighting FoxN1's critical role in thymic morphogenesis.
research Thymic Mesenchymal Cells Have a Distinct Transcriptomic Profile
This study found that mesenchymal cells from different organs exhibit substantial heterogeneity, with thymic mesenchymal cells particularly adapted for interacting with epithelial and hematolymphoid cells in high-apoptosis environments.
research Identification of an Intronic Regulatory Element Necessary for Tissue-Specific Expression of Foxn1 in Thymic Epithelial Cells
This study identified a regulatory element necessary for Foxn1 expression specifically in mouse thymic epithelial cells, crucial for thymus development but not affecting hair follicles.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
This study presents evidence that specific thymus-derived peptides affect human hair follicle growth, identifying thymulin as a potential hair growth stimulator despite interindividual response variations.
research Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Controls Hair Growth
This study found that thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) promotes hair growth after skin injury by enhancing the proliferation of specific stem cells in hair follicles.
research Topical Application of Thymidine Dinucleotide to Newborn Mice Reduces and Delays Development of UV-Induced Melanomas
This study found that applying topical thymidine dinucleotide (pTT) to newborn mice before UV exposure delayed and reduced melanoma development compared to untreated controls.
research 17β-Estradiol Enhances Contact Hypersensitivity in a Hair Cycle-Dependent Manner and Retards Thymic Atrophy with Age
This study found that 17beta-estradiol enhanced allergy responses in certain age groups of female mice and inhibited thymus involution and regeneration after contact hypersensitivity.
research Minoxidil Restores Thymic Growth in 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome by Limiting Sox9+ Chondrocyte Expansion
This study found that administering minoxidil and PGE2 to pregnant mice with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome models corrected multiple developmental anomalies, including thymus growth and parathyroid positioning, by targeting prenatal mesenchymal differentiation.
research Angelica Sinensis Promotes Cortical Regeneration Of The Thymus In Mice With Acute Thymic Involution Induced By Short-Term Rapamycin Treatment
This study reported that in mice with rapamycin-induced thymic atrophy, Angelica sinensis promoted thymic cortical regeneration and functional recovery by activating the Wnt/CTNNB1/Foxn1 signaling pathway and improving inflammatory microenvironment, suggesting its potential benefit against immune aging.
research Dyad of Infantile Cutaneous and Thymic Langerhans Cell Histiocytosis: Is It Rare?
This report discusses a potentially underdiagnosed form of multisystem Langerhans cell histiocytosis in infants, demonstrating the use of thymic sonography for staging, highlighting a case where thymic and cutaneous involvement was confirmed, and suggesting thymic ultrasound may aid in better diagnosis and management of LCH.
research Thymic Stromal Lymphopoietin Controls Hair Growth
This study found that locally administering thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) promotes hair growth by stimulating hair follicle cell proliferation during both normal conditions and after skin injury in mice.
research Faculty Opinions Recommendation of Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Thymic peptides can either promote or inhibit human hair growth.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
This abstract provides funding and institutional support information but reports no new research findings.
