This study found that in Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome, iPSCs committed to the keratinocyte lineage faster than normal cells, with LEF1 expression reduced and a partial rescue of the phenotype achieved through adenine base editing.
research Androgen Regulation of the Human Hair Follicle: The Type I Hair Keratin hHa7 Is a Direct Target Gene in Trichocytes
This study found that the hHa7 gene in hair follicle trichocytes is the first identified to have its expression directly regulated by androgens, suggesting it as a marker for androgen action on hair follicles.
research Effects of in vivo-administered 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin on receptor binding of epidermal growth factor in the hepatic plasma membrane of rat, guinea pig, mouse, and hamster.
This study found that TCDD significantly reduced EGF receptor binding in various animal models, linked to toxic symptoms like weight loss and developmental delays, with receptor phosphorylation persisting several days.

This guide reviews the biology of sebaceous glands and their evaluation methods, emphasizing their roles beyond lipid production in skin health and disease, and reports no new research results.
research Novel Compound Heterozygous Variants in the CDC6 Gene in a Russian Patient with Meier-Gorlin Syndrome
This case report presents the first Russian patient with Meier-Gorlin syndrome 5, expanding clinical understanding through the identification of two novel CDC6 gene variants.
research 2,3,7,8‐Tetrachlorodibenzo‐p‐dioxin causes an increase in protein kinases growth hepatic associated with epidermal factor receptor in the plasma membrane
In this study, TCDD administered to male rats down-regulated EGF receptor in liver plasma membranes and increased protein kinase activity, suggesting EGF receptor–mediated toxicological effects.
research A family of type I keratin genes and the homeobox-2 gene complex are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11
Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.
research QR678 & QR678 Neo Hair Growth Formulations: A Cellular Toxicity & Animal Efficacy Study
In this study, QR 678 and QR 678 Neo formulations containing growth factors and peptides were found to be safe in vitro and promoted hair growth in vivo in an animal model, suggesting their potential as treatments for alopecia, including secondary alopecia post-chemotherapy.
research Corrections to “Adenosine Stimulates Fibroblast Growth Factor-7 Gene Expression Via Adenosine A2b Receptor Signaling in Dermal Papilla Cells”
research 0749 Serine and arginine-rich splicing factor 3 regulates epidermal differentiation in cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma
research 586 Increase in CD8+ effector memory cells re-expressing CD45RA (TEMRA) reflects disease activity and enables early prediction of therapeutic outcome in rapidly progressive alopecia areata
This study suggests that monitoring CD8+ TEMRA cells in patients with rapidly progressive alopecia areata treated with intravenous corticosteroids could help predict therapeutic outcomes.
research Effectiveness of QR678 and QR678 Neo ® with intralesional corticosteroid vs. intralesional corticosteroid alone in the treatment of alopecia areata –A randomized, comparative, prospective study
The researchers reported that QR678 Neo® combined with intralesional steroids significantly improved hair regrowth and patient satisfaction in treating alopecia areata compared to steroids alone.
research Keratin K6irs is specific to the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans
This study identified a new keratin, K6irs, as a potential histological marker for the inner root sheath of hair follicles in mice and humans, and as a candidate gene for hereditary hair defects.
research Upregulation of the truncated basic hair keratin 1(hHb1‐ΔN) in carcinoma cells by Epstein‐Barr virus (EBV)
This study found that Epstein-Barr virus infection upregulated a truncated variant of human basic hair keratin 1 (hHb1-ΔN) in gastric carcinoma cell lines, suggesting a possible link to carcinoma differentiation.
research 217 The adenosine-generating ecto-enzyme CD73 regulates human hair growth
This study found that the activity of CD73, an enzyme expressed in the hair follicle epithelium, may regulate human hair growth by modulating adenosine production.
research Smad7-Induced β-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
This study found that Smad7 perturbs hair follicle development while promoting sebaceous gland formation by antagonizing Wnt/β-catenin signaling in transgenic mice.
research Exploiting the Keratin 17 Gene Promoter To Visualize Live Cells in Epithelial Appendages of Mice
This study showed that a 2-kilobase upstream region of the mouse keratin 17 gene enables targeted GFP expression in major epithelial appendages of transgenic mice, indicating sonic hedgehog's involvement in its regulation.
research BJD Editor's Choice
Some Greek melanoma patients have gene mutations linked to increased cancer risk, a new color feature helps diagnose melanoma, the incidence of a skin condition in the Netherlands is rare, and a gene possibly affects male-pattern baldness.
