90-120 / 1000+ resultsresearch Radiation Dermatitis: Radiation-Induced Effects on the Structural and Immunological Barrier Function of the Epidermis
Radiation therapy damages skin structure and immune function, causing inflammation and potential hair loss.
research Homozygous ALOXE3 Nonsense Variant Identified in a Patient with Non-Bullous Congenital Ichthyosiform Erythroderma Complicated by Superimposed Bullous Majocchi’s Granuloma: The Consequences of Skin Barrier Dysfunction
A specific gene variant causes severe skin issues and increases infection risk, requiring careful medical monitoring.
research Nrf2-Mediated Expansion of Pilosebaceous Cells Accelerates Cutaneous Wound Healing
Activating Nrf2 in skin cells speeds up wound healing by increasing the growth of certain stem cells.
research Cultured Human Foreskin as a Model System for Evaluating Ionizing Radiation-Induced Skin Injury
Human foreskin does not show aging or reduced cell growth after radiation, and H2A.J is not a good marker for radiation-induced aging.
research Matricellular Proteins in the Homeostasis, Regeneration, and Aging of Skin
Special proteins are important for skin balance, healing, and aging, and affect skin stem cells.
research Artificial Infestation of Sarcoptes Scabiei in Rabbits Exhibits Progressive Pathological Changes, Apoptosis, and Keratinization in the Skin
Rabbits with Sarcoptes scabiei had thicker skin, cell death, and skin hardening.
research Nrf2 Activation Enhances the Healing of Cutaneous Wounds Through the Activation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells
Activating Nrf2 helps wounds heal faster by increasing hair follicle stem cells.
research Keratinocytes of the Upper Epidermis and Isthmus of Hair Follicles Express Hemoglobin mRNA and Protein
Skin cells and certain hair follicle areas produce hemoglobin, which may help protect against oxidative stress like UV damage.
research Claudin Expression Modulations Reflect an Injury Response in the Murine Epidermis
Claudin expression changes help the skin respond to injury.
research Hair Keratinization in Health and Disease
Understanding intermediate filaments helps explain hair health and related diseases.
research WWOX Deficiency Causes Downregulation of Prosurvival ERK Signaling and Abnormal Homeostatic Responses in Mouse Skin
WWOX deficiency in mice causes skin and fat tissue problems due to disrupted cell survival signals.
research Disturbed Keratinocyte Differentiation in Transgenic Mice and Organotypic Keratinocyte Cultures Due to Spermidine/Spermine N1-Acetyltransferase Overexpression
Overexpression of SSAT causes hair loss and skin issues, but reducing putrescine can help.
research Dermatologic Manifestations of Thyroid Disease: A Literature Review
Thyroid disease can cause skin, hair, and nail problems, and treating the thyroid condition often improves these symptoms.
research Suppression of Vitamin D Receptor and Induction of Retinoid X Receptor Alpha Expression During Squamous Differentiation of Cultured Keratinocytes
As skin cells mature, vitamin D receptor levels decrease while retinoid X receptor α levels increase.
research Beyond Expectations: The Role of Keratin Intermediate Filament Proteins in Epidermal Integrity
Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.
research A Monoclonal Antibody Established from the Immunization of Basal Cell Carcinoma Tissues Reacts to the Intercellular Space of Basal Cell Carcinoma and Hair Follicles
The antibody created from BCC tissues reacts similarly to both BCC and hair follicles, suggesting BCC may come from hair follicle cells.
research Protease Nexin-1 Is Expressed in Human Dermal Papilla Cells and Is Affected by Androgen
Protease Nexin-1 is found in human hair growth cells and is affected by male hormones.
research Recently Identified Forms of Epidermolysis Bullosa
Three new types of a skin blistering disease were found, caused by specific gene mutations.
