research Characterization and Chromosomal Localization of Human Hair-Specific Keratin Genes and Comparative Expression During the Hair Growth Cycle
Two specific hair keratin genes are active during hair growth and decline as hair transitions to rest.
research Tumor Necrosis Factor-Alpha and Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome: A Clinical, Biochemical, and Molecular Genetic Study
High levels of TNF-α may contribute to obesity and insulin resistance in PCOS, but not due to the C850T genetic variation.
research Comparative Study on Seasonal Hair Follicle Cycling by Analysis of the Transcriptomes from Cashmere and Milk Goats
Cashmere and milk goats have different hair growth cycles and gene expressions, which could help improve wool production.
research Epithelial Cells in the Hair Follicle Bulge Do Not Contribute to Epidermal Regeneration After Glucocorticoid-Induced Cutaneous Atrophy
Hair follicle bulge cells don't help skin regrow after glucocorticoid damage; interfollicular epidermis cells do.
research Genetics of Structural Hair Disorders
The document concludes that over 500 genes are linked to hair disorders and this knowledge is important for creating new treatments.
research Male Androgenetic Alopecia
Male pattern baldness involves hormone-related hair thinning, shorter hair, and inflammation.
research Hormonal Regulation in Male Androgenetic Alopecia: Sex Hormones and Beyond - Evidence from Recent Genetic Studies
Hormones and genes affect hair growth and male baldness.
research The Intragenic mRNA-microRNA Regulatory Network During Telogen-Anagen Hair Follicle Transition in the Cashmere Goat
The research found that a complex gene network, controlled by microRNAs, is important for hair growth in cashmere goats.
research Identification of MicroRNAs Involved in Growth Arrest and Cell Death in Hydrogen Peroxide-Treated Human Dermal Papilla Cells
Targeting specific miRNAs may help treat hair follicle issues caused by hydrogen peroxide.
research The Human Type II Keratin Gene Cluster on Chromosome 12q13.13: Final Count or Hidden Secrets?
The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.
research Thymic Peptides Differentially Modulate Human Hair Follicle Growth
Some thymic peptides can increase human hair growth, while others may inhibit it.
research Therapeutic Control of Androgen Action
Understanding how androgens work is key for creating new treatments for prostate issues and hair/skin conditions.
research Longer TA Repeat but Not V89L Polymorphisms in the SRD5A2 Gene May Confer Acne Risk in the Chinese Population
Longer TA repeats in the SRD5A2 gene may increase acne risk in Chinese people.
research Highly Conserved Keratin-Associated Protein 7-1 Gene in Yak, Taurine, and Zebu Cattle
The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
research Follicle Hormones
Follicle Stimulating Hormone is important for fertility.
research The Murine Hair Follicle Is a Melatonin Target
Melatonin directly affects mouse hair follicles and may influence hair growth.
research A Preview of Selected Articles
New treatments for hair loss, fertility, and wound healing are being explored.
research Montagna Symposium 2015: Harnessing Stem Cells to Reveal Novel Skin Biology and Disease Treatments
The symposium showed that stem cells are key for understanding and treating skin diseases and for developing new skin models and therapies.
research The Circadian Molecular Clock Creates Epidermal Stem Cell Heterogeneity
The circadian clock affects skin stem cell behavior, impacting aging and cancer risk.
research Deletion of DNA Binding Domain of the Vitamin D Receptor Abrogates Genomic and Nongenomic Functions of Vitamin D
Removing part of the vitamin D receptor stops vitamin D from working properly.
research On the Role of Melatonin in Skin Physiology and Pathology
Melatonin is important for skin health and protection, and can be made by the skin or applied to it.
research In Vivo Transcriptional Governance of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Canonical Wnt Regulators
Wnt signaling controls whether hair follicle stem cells stay inactive or regenerate hair.
research Hairless Triggers Reactivation of Hair Growth by Promoting Wnt Signaling
The HR protein helps hair grow by blocking a hair growth inhibitor, aiding in hair follicle regeneration.
research Androgenetic Alopecia and Microinflammation
Inflammation may be linked to hair loss, and targeting specific enzymes could help treat it.
research Function and Underlying Mechanisms of Seasonal Color Molting in Mammals and Birds: What Keeps Them Changing in a Warming World?
Animals that change color with the seasons mainly do so in response to daylight changes, but climate change is causing camouflage problems that may require evolutionary changes.
research Generation of Folliculogenic Human Epithelial Stem Cells from Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells
Scientists created stem cells that can grow hair and skin.
