research Common Pathologic Pathways: A Single Prescription Dream?
The conclusion suggests that treatments targeting root causes of chronic diseases may be developed by focusing on gene expression and lifestyle factors.
research Interleukin-6 Null Mice Paradoxically Display Increased STAT3 Activity and Wound-Induced Hair Neogenesis
Mice without the IL-6 gene had more hair growth after injury due to higher activity of a related protein, Stat3.
research Feasibility of Repairing Skin Defects by VEGF165 Gene-Modified iPS-HFSCs Seeded on a 3D Printed Scaffold Containing Astragalus Polysaccharide
The new method using gene-modified stem cells and a 3D printed scaffold improved skin repair in mice.
research Integrated Transcriptomics and Metabolomics Analyses of Stress-Induced Murine Hair Follicle Growth Inhibition
Chronic stress in mice changes skin metabolism and gene expression, leading to hair loss.
research Clinical Snippets: Insights into Dermatological Studies
Some cells may slow melanoma growth, a protein could affect skin pigmentation, a gene-silencing method might treat hair defects, skin bacteria changes likely result from eczema, and a defensin protein could help treat multiple sclerosis.
research Histopathological and Ultrastructural Study of Ectodermal Dysplasia/Skin Fragility Syndrome
The study concluded that PKP1 is essential for skin integrity and hair growth, and its dysfunction causes the symptoms of ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome.
research Acromegaloidism With Normal Growth Hormone Secretion Associated With X-Tetrasomy
A woman with acromegaloidism and normal growth hormone levels had a rare X-Tetrasomy, suggesting a need to study X-chromosome genes for their role in growth and facial development.
research Induction of the Hair Growth Phase in Postnatal Mice by Localized Transient Expression of Sonic Hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription and DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Epithelial Wnt Ligand Secretion Is Required for Adult Hair Follicle Growth and Regeneration
Wnt ligands are crucial for hair growth and repair.
research Epithelial Integrity Is Maintained by a Matriptase-Dependent Proteolytic Pathway
Matriptase is crucial for keeping epithelial tissues healthy and functioning properly.
research Melanogenesis Is Coupled to Murine Anagen: New Concepts for the Role of Melanocytes and Regulation of Melanogenesis in Hair Growth
Hair color production is closely linked to the active growth phase of hair in mice and may also influence hair growth itself.
research A Receptor-Like Kinase Mediates Ammonium Homeostasis and Is Important for the Polar Growth of Root Hairs in Arabidopsis
The CAP1 gene helps control ammonium levels and is necessary for the proper growth of root hairs in Arabidopsis.
research Germline Mutation in ATR in Autosomal-Dominant Oropharyngeal Cancer Syndrome
A specific ATR gene mutation is linked to a hereditary oropharyngeal cancer syndrome.
research Post-Transcriptional Regulation of Keratinocyte Progenitor Cell Expansion, Differentiation, and Hair Follicle Regression by miR-22
miR-22, a type of microRNA, controls hair growth and its overproduction can cause hair loss, while its absence can speed up hair growth.
research Chrousos Syndrome: From Molecular Pathogenesis to Therapeutic Management
The review suggests thorough evaluation and genetic testing for proper diagnosis and treatment of Chrousos syndrome.
research Harnessing Neuroendocrine Controls of Keratin Expression: A New Therapeutic Strategy for Skin Diseases?
Using neurohormones to control keratin can lead to new skin disease treatments.
research Suppression of Wnt/β-Catenin Signaling by EGF Receptor Is Required for Hair Follicle Development
Blocking Wnt/β-catenin signaling with EGF receptor is necessary for proper hair growth.
research A Humanized Mouse Model of Hereditary 1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D–Resistant Rickets Without Alopecia
Researchers created a mouse model of a type of rickets that does not cause hair loss.
research The Role of P-Cadherin in Skin Biology and Pathology: Lessons from the Hair Follicle
P-cadherin is important for hair growth and health, and its problems can cause hair and skin disorders.
