Herpes simplex virus infections should be considered in pemphigus patients to avoid unnecessary changes in treatment.
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.
research Loose Anagen Hair as a Cause of Hereditary Hair Loss in Children
Loose Anagen Hair Syndrome is a hereditary condition causing hair loss in children due to abnormal hair follicles.
research Vitamin D Receptor Is Required for Proliferation, Migration, and Differentiation of Epidermal Stem Cells and Progeny During Cutaneous Wound Repair
The vitamin D receptor is essential for skin stem cells to grow, move, and become different cell types needed for skin healing.
research Combined Deletion of the Vitamin D Receptor and Calcium-Sensing Receptor Delays Wound Re-Epithelialization
Removing vitamin D and calcium receptors in mice skin cells slows down skin wound healing.
