30 / 248 results research Roles of the Hedgehog Signaling Pathway in Epidermal and Hair Follicle Development, Homeostasis, and Cancer
The Hedgehog signaling pathway is important for skin and hair growth and can lead to cancer if it doesn't work right.
research Expression Patterns of Gli-1, Pleckstrin Homology-Like Domain, Family A, Member 1, Transforming Growth Factor-β1/β2, and p63 in Sebaceous and Follicular Tumors
The research suggests that p63 and TGF-β1 may help determine tumor type and malignancy in hair follicle and sebaceous tumors.
research From Basal Cell Carcinoma Morphogenesis to Alopecia Induced by Hedgehog Inhibitors: Connecting the Dots
The article concludes that hair loss is a common side effect of drugs treating skin cancer by blocking the hedgehog pathway, but treatment should continue, and more selective drugs might prevent this side effect.
research Smad7-Induced Beta-Catenin Degradation Alters Epidermal Appendage Development
Too much Smad7 changes skin and hair development by breaking down a protein called β-catenin, leading to more oil glands and fewer hair follicles.
research MIM and Cortactin Antagonism Regulates Ciliogenesis and Hedgehog Signaling
MIM is crucial for hair follicle formation and regeneration by controlling cilia formation and hedgehog signaling through its interaction with Cortactin and Src.
research Hedgehog Signaling Maintains Hair Follicle Stem Cell Phenotype in Young and Aged Human Skin
Hedgehog signaling helps keep hair follicle stem cells the same in both young and old human skin.
research Treatment of MSCs with Wnt1a-Conditioned Medium Activates DP Cells and Promotes Hair Follicle Regrowth
Wnt1a-conditioned medium from stem cells helps activate cells important for hair growth and can promote hair regrowth.
research GLI2-Specific Transcriptional Activation of the Bone Morphogenetic Protein/Activin Antagonist Follistatin in Human Epidermal Cells
GLI2 increases follistatin production in human skin cells.
research Role of the Wnt Signaling Pathway in Keratoacanthoma
The Wnt signaling pathway is not a major factor in the development of keratoacanthoma, a type of skin tumor.
research Induction of the Hair Growth Phase in Postnatal Mice by Localized Transient Expression of Sonic Hedgehog
Activating the Sonic hedgehog gene in mice can start the hair growth phase.
research Azelaic Acid Stimulates Catalase Activation and Promotes Hair Growth Through Upregulation of Gli1 and Gli2 mRNA and Shh Protein
Azelaic acid helps protect hair cells from UV damage and encourages hair growth by increasing certain gene expressions and proteins.
research Stat3 Partly Inhibits Cell Proliferation Via Direct Negative Regulation of FST Gene Expression
The protein STAT3 slows down cell growth by blocking the FST gene, which affects hair development in sheep.
research Resequencing Analyses Revealed Genetic Diversity and Selection Signatures During Rabbit Breeding and Improvement
Genetic analysis of rabbits identified key genes for traits like coat color, body size, and fertility.
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.
research Molecular Principles of Hair Follicle Induction and Morphogenesis
Hair follicle development is controlled by interactions between skin tissues and specific molecular signals.
research The PDGF/PDGFR Pathway as a Drug Target
The PDGF/PDGFR pathway is a potential drug target with mixed success in treating various diseases, including some cancers and fibrosis.
research Shh Maintains Dermal Papilla Identity and Hair Morphogenesis via a Noggin–Shh Regulatory Loop
Sonic hedgehog signaling is crucial for hair growth and maintaining hair follicle identity.
research Mutant Laboratory Mice With Abnormalities in Hair Follicle Morphogenesis, Cycling, and Structure: Annotated Tables
Mutant mice help researchers understand hair growth and related genetic factors.
research Hair-Growth Potential of Ginseng and Its Major Metabolites: A Review on Its Molecular Mechanisms
Ginseng and its compounds may help hair growth and prevent hair loss, but more human trials are needed to confirm this.
research Effect of Adenovirus-Mediated Expression of Sonic Hedgehog Gene on Hair Regrowth in Mice With Chemotherapy-Induced Alopecia
Using a gene therapy with the Sonic Hedgehog gene helps mice regrow hair faster after losing it from chemotherapy.
research DMBA/TPA Treatment Is Necessary for Basal Cell Carcinoma Formation from Patched Deficient Epidermal Cells in Ptch Flox/Flox CD4Cre +/- Mice
