research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Mice lacking a key DNA methylation enzyme in skin cells have a lower chance of activating stem cells necessary for hair growth, leading to progressive hair loss.
research Physiopathological Role of the Enzymatic Complex 5α-Reductase and 3α/β-Hydroxysteroid Oxidoreductase in the Generation of Progesterone and Testosterone Neuroactive Metabolites
The enzymes 5α-reductase and 3α/β-hydroxysteroid oxidoreductase help create brain-active substances from progesterone and testosterone, which could be used for treatment, but more research is needed to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research The G60S Connexin43 Mutant Regulates Hair Growth and Hair Fiber Morphology in a Mouse Model of Human Oculodentodigital Dysplasia
The G60S Connexin43 mutation causes hair growth issues and poor hair quality in mice, similar to human ODDD patients.
research Biological Significance of FoxN1 Gain-of-Function Mutations During T and B Lymphopoiesis in Juvenile Mice

research Exome-Wide Age-Of-Onset Analysis Reveals Exonic Variants In ERN1 And SPPL2C Associated With Alzheimer’s Disease
Researchers found two new genetic variants linked to Alzheimer's disease.
research Characterization of Transport Systems for Cysteine, Lysine, Alanine, and Leucine in Wool Follicles of Sheep
Sheep wool follicles absorb different amino acids at various rates and locations, which could affect wool growth based on diet and genetics.
research Abnormal Wool Growth and Alopecia of Artificially Reared Lambs
Lambs fed a liquid diet showed abnormal wool and skin, which improved with more B-vitamins, suggesting a link to B-vitamin deficiency.
research Alopecia in a Viable Phospholipase C Delta 1 and Phospholipase C Delta 3 Double Mutant
Mutations in Plcd1 and Plcd3 together cause severe hair loss in mice.
research Cardio-Light: Nitric Oxide Uncaged
Low-level laser therapy using near-infrared light may help heart conditions and promote healing by releasing nitric oxide.
research Enzymatic Method for Assessing Hair Damage with Reduction and Subsequent Oxidation
Permed hair degrades faster and shows more damage after protease treatment compared to untreated hair.
research Balint’s Syndrome—Missed or Mistaken?
The document concludes that early diagnosis of Balint's syndrome is crucial for effective treatment and that understanding drug interactions, like between ritonavir and statins, is important for patient care.
research Neuroactive Steroids and Ethanol Exposure: Relevance to Ethanol Sensitivity and Alcohol Use Disorders Risk
Neuroactive steroids may affect the risk and treatment of alcohol use disorders.
research The Role of Interface Geometry and Appendages on the Mesoscale Mechanics of the Skin
Skin's uneven surface and hair follicles affect its stress and strain but don't change its overall strength, and help prevent the skin from peeling apart.
research Identification of the Keratin-Associated Protein 22-2 Gene in Capra Hircus and Its Association with Cashmere Traits
A new goat gene affects cashmere fiber thickness; certain variations can make the fibers coarser.
research Characterization of Hair Lipid and Protein Dynamics Using EPR Spectroscopy and Treatment Effects
Hair treatments and dehydration affect hair's lipid and protein behavior, influencing its flexibility and appearance.
research The Ophthalmological Complications of Targeted Agents in Cancer Therapy: What Do We Need to Know as Ophthalmologists?
Cancer treatments can cause various eye problems, so eye doctors should know how to diagnose and treat these early.
research Analysis of Heterogeneous Reaction Between Reducing Agents and Keratin Fibers Using Raman Spectroscopy and Microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
