The document concludes that pregnancy and cancer share immune evasion tactics, but more research is needed before using checkpoint blockade immunotherapy in pregnant cancer patients to avoid harm to the placenta.

Higher miR-34a levels and the A variant of the MIR-34A gene are linked to increased risk and severity of alopecia areata.

Topical drugs and near-infrared light therapy show potential for treating alopecia.

The Rotterdam Study found risk factors for elderly diseases, links between lifestyle and genetics with health conditions, and aimed to explore new areas like DNA methylation and sensory input effects on brain function.

Long scalp hair evolved for cooling and social signaling.

Targeting a protein that blocks hair growth with microRNAs could lead to new hair loss treatments, but more research is needed.

TGFβ's manipulation of inflammation and immune cells affects cancer spread, suggesting new treatment strategies and biomarkers.

Gene therapy shows promise for healing chronic wounds but needs more research to overcome challenges.

Stem cells in hair follicles can become various cell types, including neurons.

Hedgehog pathway inhibitors can treat certain aggressive cancers but face limitations like resistance and side effects.

Pig skin cells can turn into mesodermal cells but lose their ability to become neural cells.

Higher EULAR/ACR scores in SLE patients predict more organ damage.

Key genes linked to immune response are highly active in lupus-affected hair follicles.

Cat color patterns are determined early in development by gene expression and epidermal changes, with the Dickkopf 4 gene playing a crucial role.

The environment around the time of conception can change the VTRNA2-1 gene in a way that lasts for years and may affect disease risk.

New findings improve our understanding of how wounds heal and can be applied to medical treatments.

Activating Nrf2 in skin cells causes skin disease similar to chloracne in mice.

Mexican women's hair is between Asian and Caucasian hair in thickness and shape, with varied strength and some damage.

Jumonji genes are important for development and their mutations can cause abnormalities, especially in the heart and brain.

VDR regulation varies by tissue and is crucial for its biological functions.

Hair growth genes work better with more glucose due to changes in gene-regulating markers.

Androgenetic alopecia is mainly caused by genetic factors and increased androgen activity, leading to hair follicle miniaturization.

Keratinocytes help heal skin wounds by interacting with immune cells and producing substances that kill pathogens.

Different types of stem cells exist within individual skin layers, and they can adapt to damage, transplantation, or tumor growth. These cells are regulated by their environment and genetic factors. Tumor growth is driven by expanding, genetically altered cells, not long-lived mutant stem cells. There's evidence of cancer stem cells in skin tumors. Other cells, bacteria, and genetic factors help maintain balance and contribute to disease progression. A method for growing mini organs from single cells has been developed.

Skin aging is caused by stem cell damage and can potentially be delayed with treatments like antioxidants and stem cell therapy.

Feather patterns form through genetic and epigenetic controls, with cells self-organizing into periodic patterns.

Aging causes sweat glands to shrink, leading to skin issues, and blue light can help hair grow.

Skin and hair can regenerate after injury due to changes in gene activity, with potential links to how cancer spreads. Future research should focus on how new hair follicles form and the processes that trigger their creation.

The research found genes that may protect certain scalp cells from hair loss.

Hair follicle cells change their DNA packaging during growth cycles and when grown in the lab.
