research Molecular Network of Smads and Id2 Genes in Hair Follicle Stem Cells Regulation
The BMP/Smads pathway and Id2 gene control hair follicle stem cells, affecting their rest and growth phases.
research Unexpectedly High Carrier Rates and Genotype/Phenotype Correlation: LIPH Mutations in Japanese Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
Certain gene mutations in Japanese people are linked to different types of hair loss, with some causing mild hair thinning and others leading to complete baldness.
research Role of Sdf1-Cxcr4 Signaling in Mouse Appendage Regeneration
Mice without the p21 gene can fully regenerate injured ears due to reduced Sdf1 increase and leukocyte recruitment, suggesting new ways to induce tissue regeneration in mammals.
research Genetics
Certain gene mutations can weaken the skin barrier and, when combined with environmental factors, lead to eczema and severe itching.
research A Mouse with Bad Hair and Poor Taste
A defective gene causes hair loss and taste insensitivity in BTBR mice.
research Becker Nevus of the Face with Asymmetrical Growth of Beard Hair
Certain gene variations may increase the risk of alopecia, and platelet-rich plasma treatment can improve hair density in those with hair loss; a rare case of facial Becker's nevus was linked to uneven beard growth.
research Novel Frameshift Mutation in TRPS1 in a Ukrainian Patient with Trichorhinophalangeal Syndrome Type I
A new mutation in the TRPS1 gene was found in a Ukrainian girl with Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome type I.
research Case of Epidermolytic Ichthyosis with a Novel L157P Mutation in KRT10 Complicated by Hypercalcemia
A man with a rare skin condition and a new gene mutation developed high calcium levels due to his treatment.
research Research Snippets from the British Journal of Dermatology: Studies on Hair Growth and Skin Conditions
New hair regrowth model proposed, imiquimod found to kill skin cancer cells, T-cadherin loss linked to invasive skin cancer, no clear gene link to skin cancer after transplant, and study on children's hair loss shows male dominance and genetic ties.
