research Hair Growth Defects in Insig-Deficient Mice Caused by Cholesterol Precursor Accumulation and Reversed by Simvastatin
Mice lacking Insig proteins had hair growth problems due to cholesterol buildup, but this was fixed by the drug simvastatin.
research Comparative Spatial Transcriptomic and Single-Cell Analyses of Human Nail Units and Hair Follicles Show Transcriptional Similarities between the Onychodermis and Follicular Dermal Papilla
Human nails and hair follicles have similar gene activity, especially in the cells that contribute to their growth and development.
research Letters to Dermatology
Stopping forehead irritation and using hydrocortisone helped a man's skin, Martinique has lower melanoma rates, a man had an allergy to a specific antifungal, another had unexplained cysts, certain drugs can cause skin reactions without always being interrelated, a link between Fanconi anemia and a skin condition was suggested, high levels of a certain protein may play a role in a type of psoriasis, and there's a need to study the connection between scalp pain and hair loss.
research A Novel Actor in Skin Biology: The Mineralocorticoid Receptor
Blocking the mineralocorticoid receptor can help treat skin thinning caused by steroids.
research Stress-Induced Premature Senescence of Dermal Papilla Cells Compromises Hair Follicle Epithelial-Mesenchymal Interaction
Stress can cause early aging in certain skin cells, leading to problems with hair growth.
research BMP2-Mediated PTEN Enhancement Promotes Differentiation of Hair Follicle Stem Cells by Inducing Autophagy
BMP2 helps hair follicle stem cells become specialized by increasing PTEN, which causes autophagy.
research LGR5 Is a Conserved Marker of Hair Follicle Stem Cells in Multiple Species and Is Present Early and Throughout Follicle Morphogenesis
LGR5 is a common marker of hair follicle stem cells in different animals and is important for hair growth and regeneration.
research Single-Cell Transcriptome Sequence Profiling on the Morphogenesis of Secondary Hair Follicles in Ordos Fine-Wool Sheep

research Hyaluronate Fragments Reverse Skin Atrophy by a CD44-Dependent Mechanism
Hyaluronate fragments can help reverse skin thinning by working with the CD44 receptor.
research A Folliculocentric Perspective of Dandruff Pathogenesis: Could a Troublesome Condition Be Caused by Changes to a Natural Secretory Mechanism?
Dandruff might be caused by changes in how hair follicles naturally release oils and an immune response to this imbalance.
research Enrichment of Specific Hair Follicle-Associated Cell Populations in Plucked Hairs Offers an Opportunity to Study Gene Expression Underlying Hair Traits
Plucked hairs can be used instead of skin biopsies to study hair traits because they contain specific cells related to hair.
research Mediator 1 Ablation Induces Enamel-to-Hair Lineage Conversion in Mice Through Enhancer Dynamics
Removing Mediator 1 from certain mouse cells causes teeth to grow hair instead of enamel.
research Integration Analysis of Hair Follicle Transcriptome and Proteome Reveals the Mechanisms Regulating Wool Fiber Diameter in Angora Rabbits
