research A Two-Phase Model of Skin Epidermal Stratification: Lessons from Centrosomes
Removing centrosomes from skin cells leads to thinner skin and stops hair growth, but does not greatly affect skin cell differentiation.
research Molecular Basis of Maintaining Circannual Rhythm in the Skin of Cashmere Goat
Goat skin changes with the seasons due to genes affected by daylight and hormones.
research Characterization of Novel TMEM173 Mutation with Additive IFIH1 Risk Allele
A new mutation in the TMEM173 gene and a risk allele in IFIH1 cause a unique set of immune-related symptoms.
research Multiple Skin Cancers in a Patient Within 1 Year of Allogeneic Hematopoietic Cell Transplant for Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia
A man got six skin cancers within a year after a cell transplant for leukemia but was cancer-free 32 months later; skin checks are important post-transplant.
research Anesthetics and Platelets
The document suggests that hair loss after stopping birth control may be similar to post-pregnancy hair loss and could recur with future pregnancies.
research Neural Crest Cells Give Rise to Non-Myogenic Mesenchymal Tissue in the Adult Murid Ear Pinna
Certain cells in the adult mouse ear come from cranial neural crest cells, but muscle and hair cells do not.
research Sparse Haplotype-Based Fine-Scale Local Ancestry Inference at Scale Reveals Recent Selection on Immune Responses
Recent selection on immune response genes was identified across seven ethnicities.
research A Window into Mammalian Basement Membrane Development: Insights from the mTurq2-Col4a1 Mouse Model
The mTurq2-Col4a1 mouse model shows that cells can divide while attached to stable basement membranes during development.
research New Intranasal and Injectable Gene Therapy for Healthy Life Extension
Gene therapy in mice increased lifespan and improved health without causing cancer.
research Specific Ectodermal Enhancers Control the Expression of Hoxc Genes in Developing Mammalian Integuments
The HoxC gene cluster and its enhancers are essential for developing hair and nails in mammals.
research Virtual Screening of MAP-Tau Protein Inhibitors from Semecarpus Anacardium Linn. Leaf Extract for Cancer Prevention
Semecarpus anacardium leaf extracts may offer safe, effective cancer treatment alternatives.
research Functional Mapping of the Mouse Hairless Gene Promoter Region
Researchers found key regions in the mouse hairless gene that control its activity in skin and brain cells, affecting hair follicle function.
research DNA Damage, Checkpoint Responses, and Cell Cycle Control in Aging Stem Cells
Maintaining DNA integrity in stem cells is crucial to prevent aging and cancer.
research Main Plenary Sessions: Summaries of Papers
UK medical students lack dermatology education, liver biopsy patients with risk factors show more fibrosis, and certain fungi resist drugs due to melanin; genetics may influence female hair loss.
research Symposium Proceedings of the 4th Intercontinental Meeting of Hair Research Societies: The World of Hair 2004
The 2004 hair research meeting presented new findings on hair cell differentiation, genetic factors in hair loss, hair pigmentation, and potential targeted therapies.
research Transplantation Immunology: Solid Organ and Bone Marrow
Transplant success has improved with better immunosuppressive drugs and donor matching.
research Alopecia Areata: An Update
The document concludes that alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease without a definitive cure, but treatments like corticosteroids are commonly used.
research Uncovering the Genetic Architecture and Evolutionary Roots of Androgenetic Alopecia in African Men
The research found that genetic factors for male pattern baldness in African men differ significantly from those in Europeans.
research Lymphocytes, Neuropeptides, And Genes Involved In Alopecia Areata
Alopecia areata is an autoimmune disease where T cells attack hair follicles.
research The Implication of Neuroactive Steroids in Tourette's Syndrome Pathogenesis: A Role for 5α-Reductase?
Neuroactive steroids and the enzyme 5α-reductase might be involved in the development of Tourette's syndrome.
research Research Gaps in Medical Treatment of Transgender and Nonbinary People
More research is needed on the health effects of hormone therapy for transgender and nonbinary people.
research Novel Mutation in Sjögren-Larsson Syndrome Is Associated With Divergent Neurologic Phenotypes
The same genetic mutation in Sjögren-Larsson syndrome can lead to different levels of severity, suggesting other factors influence the symptoms.
research Alopecia Areata: Current Understanding and Management
Alopecia areata is a chronic condition causing hair loss, with new treatments targeting the immune system showing promise.
research A Case of Frontal Fibrosing Alopecia in a Patient with Primary Biliary Cirrhosis and Polymyalgia Rheumatica

research Testosterone: The Male Sex Hormone
More research is needed to understand how testosterone is maintained in adult males.
research Geographical Differences in Male Infertility Between the United States and Canada: Insights From the Andrology Research Consortium
American men are older, more obese, and have longer infertility than Canadian men.
research The Functional Organization of Cutaneous Low-Threshold Mechanosensory Neurons
Different hair follicles in the skin are innervated by unique combinations of mechanosensory neurons, crucial for touch sensation.
research SnapshotDx Quiz: August 2019
The research found that male pattern hair loss is mostly genetic and involves hair thinning due to hormonal effects and changes in gene expression.
research Regeneration, Wound Healing, and Cancer
The document concludes that while some organisms can regenerate body parts, mammals generally cannot, and cancer progression is complex, involving mutations rather than a strict stem cell hierarchy.
