research Progressive Alopecia Reveals Decreasing Stem Cell Activation Probability During Aging of Mice with Epidermal Deletion of DNA Methyltransferase 1
Aging reduces stem cell activation, leading to hair loss in mice lacking a specific enzyme.
research Epigenetic Effects of Finasteride on Dopaminergic Signaling Pathways: A Potential Contributor to Post-Finasteride Syndrome
Finasteride may cause changes in dopamine-related genes, possibly leading to post-finasteride syndrome.
research Dermal Fibroblast Expression of LEF1 Is Critical to Normal Skin and Hair Development and Regenerative Wound Healing in Mice
Lef1 is essential for normal skin, hair growth, and healing wounds in mice.
research States and Fates of Skin Fibroblasts Revealed Through Chromatin Accessibility
Newborn skin cells can change into wound-healing cells more easily than adult ones, which might explain why baby skin heals without scars. Understanding this could help treat chronic wounds and prevent scarring.
research Tailored Chromatin Modulation to Promote Tissue Regeneration
Understanding and manipulating epigenetic changes can potentially lead to human organ regeneration therapies, but more research is needed to improve these methods and minimize risks.
research RANK as a Therapeutic Target in Cancer
RANK is a key target in breast cancer treatment due to its role in tumor growth and bone metastasis.
research The Diagnosis of Nonclassic Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia Due to 21-Hydroxylase Deficiency Based on Serum Basal or Post-ACTH Stimulation 17-Hydroxyprogesterone Can Lead to False-Positive Diagnosis
Using 17-hydroxyprogesterone levels to diagnose nonclassic congenital adrenal hyperplasia can result in many incorrect diagnoses.
research Fully Natural Lecithin Encapsulated Nano-Resveratrol for Anti-Cancer Therapy
Lecithin-encapsulated resveratrol nanoparticles could be a safe and effective anti-cancer treatment.
research Close Correlation Between Hyperandrogenism and Insulin Resistance in Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome Based on Liquid Chromatography With Tandem Mass Spectrometry Measurements
Women with PCOS who have high male hormone levels often also have insulin resistance.
research Failures of DNA Methylation Clocks and Development of a Noise Barometer for Measuring Epigenetic Pressure of Aging and Disease
Elastic Net DNA methylation clocks are inaccurate for predicting age and health status; a "noise barometer" may better indicate aging and disease.
research Abstracts
The document reports findings on genetic research, including ethical concerns about genome editing, improved diagnosis of mitochondrial mutations, solving inherited eye diseases, confirming gene roles in epilepsy, linking a gene to aneurysms, and identifying genes associated with age-related macular degeneration.
research Pathophysiological Mechanisms Implicated in Postpartum Depression
Postpartum depression is linked to changes in brain chemicals, inflammation, stress, and certain genes, and can potentially be identified by markers like specific steroids, serotonin levels, and vitamin D levels.
research Disrupted Ectodermal Organ Morphogenesis in Mice with a Conditional Histone Deacetylase 1, 2 Deletion in the Epidermis
Mice without certain skin proteins had abnormal skin and hair development.
research Stiffness-Controlled Thermoresponsive Hydrogels for Cell Harvesting with Sustained Mechanical Memory
The hydrogels help harvest cells while preserving their mechanical memory, which could improve wound healing.
research iTRAQ-Based Quantitative Proteomic Comparison of Early- and Late-Passage Human Dermal Papilla Cell Secretome in Relation to Inducing Hair Follicle Regeneration
Early-stage skin cells help regenerate hair follicles, with proteins SDF1, MMP3, biglycan, and LTBP1 playing key roles.
research Metabolic Syndrome: A New Definition and Management Guidelines
New guidelines stress early diagnosis and lifestyle changes to manage metabolic syndrome and prevent complications.
research Sexual Function in Women with Androgen Excess Disorders: Classic Forms of Congenital Adrenal Hyperplasia and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Women with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) have more sexual function issues than those with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), but physical activity can improve sexual functioning in all women.
research Epigenetic Regulations on Skin Wound Healing: Implications from Current Research
Epigenetic changes are crucial for stem cell behavior in skin wound healing and their disruption may lead to cancer.
research Evaluation of Some Hormones, Total Antioxidant Capacity, and Malondialdehyde Levels in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Women Attending the Gynecology Clinic at Nnewi
Women with PCOS have higher oxidative stress and hormone imbalances, suggesting managing oxidative stress could help.
research Sodium Valproate: Doctor Jekyll and Mister Hyde
Sodium valproate is effective in treating epilepsy, especially in patients who don't respond to other medications.
research Genetics of Blond Hair
Blond hair in Solomon Islanders is due to a unique genetic variant, not European ancestry.
research News in Brief
Researchers found potential new targets for treating melanoma and nonmelanoma skin cancers, and identified a possible cause and treatment for male pattern baldness and eczema.
research Comprehensive Overview of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) is a common condition in women that can cause metabolic, reproductive, and psychological issues, and requires lifestyle changes and medication for management.
research Maternal Nutrition at Conception Modulates DNA Methylation of Human Metastable Epialleles
A mother's diet at conception can cause lasting genetic changes in her child.
research The Rotterdam Study: 2018 Update on Objectives, Design, and Main Results
The Rotterdam Study updated findings on elderly health, focusing on heart disease, genetics, lifestyle effects, and disease understanding.
