miR-29 is a key factor that accelerates aging.
research Cell Surface Receptor Kinase FERONIA Linked to Nutrient Sensor TORC Signaling Controls Root Hair Growth at Low Temperature Linked to Low Nitrate in Arabidopsis Thaliana
A protein called FERONIA helps control root hair growth in response to cold and low nitrogen by activating nutrient-sensing pathways in a plant called Arabidopsis.
research Non-Invasive Human Skin Transcriptome Analysis Using mRNA in Skin Surface Lipids
The conclusion is that analyzing RNA from skin oils is a promising way to understand skin diseases.
research The SYP123-VAMP727 SNARE Complex Is Involved in the Delivery of Inner Cell Wall Components to the Root Hair Shank in Arabidopsis
The SYP123-VAMP727 complex is important for transporting materials that harden the root hair shank in Arabidopsis.
research Mapping the Molecular and Structural Specialization of the Skin Basement Membrane for Inter-Tissue Interactions
The skin's basement membrane is specially designed to support different types of connections between skin layers and hair follicles.
research Multi-Scale Spatial Mapping of Cell Populations Across Anatomical Sites in Healthy Human Skin and Basal Cell Carcinoma
The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.
research Guadalupe Fur Seal Alopecia: A Metabolic Syndrome Associated to Climatic Anomalies?
Climate-related nutritional stress may cause hair loss in juvenile male Guadalupe fur seals.
research Lineage Commitment of Dermal Fibroblast Progenitors Is Mediated by Chromatin De-repression
Skin cell types develop when specific genes are turned on by removing certain chemical tags from DNA.
research Revisiting the Significance of Keratin Expression in Complex Epithelia
Keratin gene expression helps understand different types of skin cells and their development, and should be used carefully as biological markers.
research In Vivo Imaging of Mammary Epithelial Cell Dynamics in Response to Lineage-Biased Wnt/β-Catenin Activation
Activating β-catenin in mammary cells leads to changes that cause early-stage abnormal growths similar to skin structures.
research High-Throughput Phenotyping Methods for Quantifying Hair Fiber Morphology
Quantifying hair shape is better than using racial categories for understanding hair characteristics.
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 Developing Human Fetal Skin Demonstrates a Unique Lymphocyte Signature
Fetal skin has unique immune cells different from adult skin.
research Ovarian and Adrenal Venous Catheterization for Hyperandrogenism
Venous catheterization may help diagnose the cause of female hyperandrogenism when imaging is unclear.
research Rac-Dependent Signaling from Keratinocytes Promotes Differentiation of Intradermal White Adipocytes
Signals from skin cells controlled by Rac proteins help turn certain precursor cells into white fat cells.
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 Biocompatibility Of Kaps-Depleted Residual Hair
KAP-depleted hair causes less immune response and is more biocompatible for implants.
research Cardiac Outflow Tract Septation Defects in a DiGeorge Syndrome Model Respond to Minoxidil Treatment
Minoxidil treatment improves heart defects in a DiGeorge syndrome model.
research Sparse Haplotype-Based Fine-Scale Local Ancestry Inference at Scale Reveals Recent Selection on Immune Responses

research Sphingolipid Metabolism Orchestrates the Establishment of the Adult Hair Follicle Stem Cell Niche to Control Skin Homeostasis
A specific enzyme is essential for proper hair follicle stem cell development and healthy skin.
research Integrated-Omics Profiling Unveils the Disparities of Host Defense to ECM Scaffolds During Wound Healing in Aged Individuals
Aged individuals heal wounds less effectively due to specific immune cell issues.
research AP-2α/AP-2β Transcription Factors Are Key Regulators of Epidermal Homeostasis
AP-2α and AP-2β proteins are essential for healthy adult skin and hair.
research Disrupted Cholesterol Biosynthesis and Hair Follicle Stem Cell Impairment in the Onset of Alopecia
Disrupted cholesterol production impairs hair follicle stem cells, leading to hair loss.
