Deleting Smad4 and PTEN genes in mice causes rapid, invasive stomach cancer.
research Data from Synergistic Function of Smad4 and PTEN in Suppressing Forestomach Squamous Cell Carcinoma in Mice
Deleting Smad4 and PTEN genes in mice causes rapid, invasive forestomach cancer.
research Uncombable Hair Syndrome and Beyond
Uncombable hair syndrome causes frizzy hair and can affect the nervous system, eyes, and ears, often co-occurring with other hair, skin, nail, and teeth conditions, and is linked to three specific gene mutations.
research Increasing Mupirocin Resistance in Pediatric Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus Skin and Soft-Tissue Infections in New York: A Genomic Approach
There's a growing resistance to the antibiotic mupirocin in children's skin infections caused by MRSA in New York.
research Cutaneous Epithelial Stem Cells
Skin and hair renewal is maintained by both fast and slow cycling stem cells, with hair regrowth primarily driven by specific stem cells in the hair follicle bulge. These cells can also help heal wounds and potentially treat hair loss.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research Androgen Actions on the Human Hair Follicle: Perspectives
Androgens have complex effects on hair growth, promoting it in some areas but causing hair loss in others, and our understanding of this is still evolving.
research Small Molecules and Small Molecule Drugs in Regenerative Medicine
Small molecule drugs show promise for advancing regenerative medicine but still face development challenges.
research Quantification of Reproductive Hormones in Hair of Captive Adult Brown Bears and Their Application as Indicators of Sex and Reproductive State
Measuring reproductive hormones in brown bear hair could help identify their sex and reproductive state, but better collection methods or lab techniques are needed.
research A Missense Mutation in the P2RY5 Gene Leading to Autosomal Recessive Woolly Hair in a Syrian Patient
A gene mutation causes woolly hair in a Syrian patient.
research A Conditional Multi-Trait Sequence GWAS Discovers Pleiotropic Candidate Genes and Variants for Sheep Wool, Skin Wrinkle, and Breech Cover Traits
Researchers found genes and genetic variants linked to sheep wool and skin wrinkles.
research Animal Models of Alopecia
The best animal model for studying male-pattern baldness is the stumptailed macaque, not rats or mice.
research Advances in Molecular Pathogenesis of Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Dysregulated Keratins and ECM Signaling
Recent findings suggest that genetic factors, immune system issues, and skin cell defects might contribute to the development of hidradenitis suppurativa.
research Familial 1q22 Microduplication Associated With Psychiatric Disorders, Intellectual Disability, and Late-Onset Autoimmune Inflammatory Response
A specific genetic change is linked to mental disorders, intellectual disability, and possibly autoimmune disease in a family.
research Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, leading to their unique scales and skin features.
research Convergent Decay of Skin-Specific Gene Modules in Pangolins
Pangolins have lost some skin-related genes, but kept others, showing complex skin evolution.
research CRISPR/Cas9-Based Targeted Genome Editing for Correction of Recessive Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa Using iPS Cells
The research showed that CRISPR/Cas9 can fix mutations causing a skin disease in stem cells, which then improved skin grafts in mice, but more work on safety and efficiency is needed.
research Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex in Children with De Novo Pathogenic Variants Disturbing KRT14
Three specific genetic variants cause severe skin issues in children with EBS, highlighting the need for early genetic screening.
research Multi-Ancestry Tandem Repeat Association Study of Hair Color Using Exome-Wide Sequencing
Tandem repeats significantly influence hair color, especially darker shades, across different ancestries.
research Genetics of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Hidradenitis Suppurativa has genetic links, with certain gene mutations more common in patients and a third of cases having a family history.
research Genetics
Certain gene mutations can weaken the skin barrier and, when combined with environmental factors, lead to eczema and severe itching.
research Tracing the Cellular Origin of Cancer
Understanding where cancer cells come from helps create better prevention and treatment methods.
research Epigenetics of Colorectal Cancer
Colorectal cancer development involves both genetic changes and epigenetic alterations like DNA methylation and microRNA changes.
