research Stem Cell Heterogeneity and Plasticity in Epithelia
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.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss
FPHL is a common, age-related, genetic hair loss with unclear causes and limited treatment options.
research Developmental Origin of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome: A Hypothesis
The hypothesis suggests that PCOS may start early in life due to genetic and environmental factors, influencing future reproductive and metabolic problems.
research Androgens and Cardiovascular Disease
Male hormones may play a role in the development of heart disease, and more research is needed to understand their effects.
research Fetal Programming of Polycystic Ovary Syndrome by Androgen Excess: Evidence from Experimental, Clinical, and Genetic Association Studies
Exposure to too much androgen before birth might cause polycystic ovary syndrome later in life.
research Evidence for Increased 5α-Reductase Activity During Early Childhood in Daughters of Women With Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Young girls whose mothers have PCOS may have higher activity of a specific enzyme that could lead to developing PCOS later.
research Dysplastic Nevi, Cutaneous Melanoma, and Other Skin Neoplasms in Patients with Myotonic Dystrophy Type 1: A Cross-Sectional Study
People with myotonic dystrophy type 1 have a higher chance of getting skin tumors, including melanoma.
